Viewing the Instance Block Device Mapping for Instance Store Volumes
When you view the block device mapping for your instance, you can see only the EBS volumes, not the instance store volumes. You can use instance metadata to query the complete block device mapping. The base URI for all requests for instance metadata is http://169.254.169.254/latest/.
First, connect to your running instance. From the instance, use this query to get its block device mapping.
