Auto re-attach EBS volume on start-up?
- by Phillip Oldham
I'm setting up a database server on EC2, and I need to ensure that an EBS volume is automatically attached and is available before the database service starts up.
I'm using SMF so I can test whether a particular filesystem is available before starting the db service, so there's no problem from that perspective, however I'm not quite sure how to tell the server to auto-attach the EBS volume during/after boot.
What would be the best strategy for this?
