## Fetching images via AWS SSM (AWS Only)
If you are using AWS, you can dynamically fetch instance group images from an AWS SSM Parameter. kOps will automatically fetch SSM Parameter and lookup the AMI ID on every `kops update cluster` run. This is useful if you often update your images and don't want to update your instance group configuration every time. Your SSM Parameter must start with `ssm:` and contain the full path of the SSM Parameter.
An example spec looks like this:
```yaml
metadata:
name: nodes-us-west-2a
spec:
image: ssm:/aws/service/canonical/ubuntu/server/18.04/stable/current/amd64/hvm/ebs-gp2/ami-id
machineType: t3.medium
maxSize: 1
minSize: 1
role: Node
```
## Changing the root volume size or type
The default volume size for Masters is 64 GB, while the default volume size for a node is 128 GB.
