Question - Volumes when using AWS ECS

Forum - Installation
1

Hello,

We’re trying to host Eramba Community Edition on AWS ECS using the Docker 1.4.0 release. The ECS cluster consists of three EC2 nodes. It’s working when we use the “dockerVolumeConfiguration” config below in the task definition however the volume doesn’t persist when the task is moved to another node:

    "volumes": [
        {
            "name": "eramba_data",
            "dockerVolumeConfiguration": {
                "scope": "shared",
                "autoprovision": true,
                "driver": "local"
            }
        }
     ]

We would like the volumes to use our EFS mount however should we use “dockerVolumeConfiguration” with EFS as an NFS mount or “efsVolumeConfiguration”? If the latter, what ownership does the destination directory need to use?

    "volumes": [
        {
            "name": "eramba_data",
            "efsVolumeConfiguration": {
                "fileSystemId": "fs-123456x0",
                "rootDirectory": "/eramba/data"
            }
        }
    ]

This isn’t too dissimilar to using docker-compose so we’re hoping that other users will have encountered the same at some point. Any details on making this work would be much appreciated.

Thanks
