Hello, I'm working on a windows vm build and want to move to the amazon-ebs builder (currently I use a different builder with the amazon-import post-processor). I'm having trouble achieving a reasonable ami size. The provisioning is quite heavy, and leaves many gigs of cached files, installers and logs. I use launch_device_block_mappings to give myself enough disk overhead to carry out the provisioning but I can't figure out how to shrink the size of the volume to fit once I've cleaned up all of the clutter. From what I can tell, there is a manual way of doing this but it's a bit involved.
Does the amazon-ebs builder have a way to shrink the volume at the end of the build? -- This mailing list is governed under the HashiCorp Community Guidelines - https://www.hashicorp.com/community-guidelines.html.
