AWS Auto Scaling Group & EFS


The AutoScaling Group will not automatically attach an EFS volume to new instances. You can either build a custom AMI that automatically attaches to the EFS, and then tell the AutoScaling Group to use that AMI, or you can configure the AutoScaling Group to pass a cloud-init command to new instances that will attach the volume. Both approaches are documented here.
