Attach a volume

Attach a Block Storage volume to an existing Linode.

📘

• The volume and its target Linode need to exist in the same region. You can run the List volumes and List Linodes operations and review the region for each.

• There's a maximum number of volumes that can be attached to a single Linode configuration. This number varies, based on the Linode's plan, with higher plan types supporting more volumes. The maximum follows a formula of the Linode plan's total_ram / 1024, with a minimum of 8 and a total maximum of 64 volumes. Rescue configurations support a maximum of 8.
