Mounting with EFS access points
You can mount an EFS file system using an EFS access point only by using the EFS mount helper.
Note
You must configure one or more mount targets for your file system when mounting a file system using EFS access points.
When you mount a file system using an access point, the mount command includes the
access-point-id
and the tls
mount option in addition to the
regular mount options. An example is shown following.
$
sudo mount -t efs -o tls,accesspoint=access-point-id
file-system-id
efs-mount-point
To automatically mount a file system using an access point, add the following line to the /etc/fstab
file on the EC2 instance.
file-system-id
efs-mount-point
efs _netdev,tls,accesspoint=access-point-id
