Abstract
A user can set or modify operational parameters of a data volume stored on a network-accessible storage device in a data center. For example, the user may be provided access to a data volume and may request a modification to the operational parameters of the data volume. Instead of modifying the existing data volume, the data center can provision a new data volume and migrate data stored on the existing data volume to the new data volume. While the data migration takes place, the existing data volume may block input/output (I/O) requests and the new data volume may handle such requests instead. Once the data migration is complete, the data center may deallocate the data blocks of the existing data volume such that the data blocks can be reused by other data volumes.
