Description

This is documentation for AWS CloudHSM Classic. For more information, see AWS CloudHSM Classic FAQs, the AWS CloudHSM Classic User Guide, and the AWS CloudHSM Classic API Reference.

Creates an uninitialized HSM instance.

There is an upfront fee charged for each HSM instance that you create with the create_hsm operation. If you accidentally provision an HSM and want to request a refund, delete the instance using the delete_hsm operation, go to the AWS Support Center, create a new case, and select Account and Billing Support.

It can take up to 20 minutes to create and provision an HSM. You can monitor the status of the HSM with the describe_hsm operation. The HSM is ready to be initialized when the status changes to RUNNING.

Usage

cloudhsm_create_hsm(SubnetId, SshKey, EniIp, IamRoleArn, ExternalId,
  SubscriptionType, ClientToken, SyslogIp)

Arguments

SubnetId

[required] The identifier of the subnet in your VPC in which to place the HSM.

SshKey

[required] The SSH public key to install on the HSM.

The IP address to assign to the HSM's ENI.

If an IP address is not specified, an IP address will be randomly chosen from the CIDR range of the subnet.
