DESCRIPTION

           Creates a new launch configuration with specified attributes.

ARGUMENTS

        LaunchConfigurationName
           User-supplied launch configuration identifier which will uniquely
           identify the configuration. You can also set this value using
           "--launch-config". Required.

SPECIFIC OPTIONS

        --block-device-mapping "key1=value1,key2=value2..."
           List  of  block  device  mapping  specifications. Each block device
       mapping
           has two items: a device, and either a  virtual  device  or  an  EBS
       snapshot
           configuration.
       Examples:
              '/dev/sdb=snap-7eb96d16'
