A.
OK

B.
Insufficient Data

C.
Alarm

D.
The EBS cannot be detached until all the alarms are removed

Explanation:
Amazon CloudWatch alarm watches a single metric over a time period that the user specifies and performs one or more
actions based on the value of the metric relative to a given threshold over a number of time periods. Alarms invoke actions
only for sustained state changes. There are three states of the alarm: OK, Alarm and Insufficient data. In this case since
the EBS is detached and inactive the state will be Insufficient.
