Answer options

• B. Can be used in read-only mode while me snapshot is in progress

• D. Cannot be used until the snapshot completes

Correct answer: C

Explanation

The correct answer is C, as EBS volumes remain available for use even while a snapshot is in progress, allowing for operations. Option A is incorrect because attachment and detachment can still occur. Option B is also wrong since the volume is not limited to read-only mode during snapshot creation. Option D is incorrect because the volume can indeed be used while the snapshot is being taken.
