  image = "5faef9cd-ea9b-4a63-9171-9e26bec03dbc"
  type  = "VC1M"

  volume {
    size_in_gb = 20

## Volume

You can attach additional volumes to your instance, which will share the lifetime
of your `scaleway_server` resource.

The `volume` mapping supports the following:

* `type` - (Required) The type of volume. Can be `"l_ssd"`
* `size_in_gb` - (Required) The size of the volume in gigabytes.

## Attributes Reference

The following attributes are exported:

* `id` - id of the new resource
* `private_ip` - private ip of the new resource
* `public_ip` - public ip of the new resource

## Import

Instances can be imported using the `id`, e.g.

```
$ terraform import scaleway_server.web 5faef9cd-ea9b-4a63-9171-9e26bec03dbc
