The following volume types are available in Cleura Cloud for persistent block storage devices (“volumes”) managed by OpenStack Cinder.

If you create a volume without specifying a volume type, then the default volume type applies.

Volume type name Default Encryption max IOPS1
cbs 10000
cbs-encrypted 10000

It is possible — though somewhat involved — to change the type of an existing volume (also known as retyping).
