)
type AccessPointId

string

param AccessPointId

[REQUIRED]

CreateAccessPoint (new) Link ¶

Creates an EFS access point. An access point is an application-specific view into an EFS file system that applies an operating system user and group, and a file system path, to any file system request made through the access point. The operating system user and group override any identity information provided by the NFS client. The file system path is exposed as the access point's root directory. Applications using the access point can only access data in its own directory and below. To learn more, see Mounting a File System Using EFS Access Points .

This operation requires permissions for the elasticfilesystem:CreateAccessPoint action.

PutFileSystemPolicy (new) Link ¶

Applies an Amazon EFS FileSystemPolicy to an Amazon EFS file system. A file system policy is an IAM resource-based policy and can contain multiple policy statements. A file system always has exactly one file system policy, which can be the default policy or an explicit policy set or updated using this API operation. When an explicit policy is set, it overrides the default policy. For more information about the default file system policy, see Using Resource-based Policies with EFS .

This operation requires permissions for the elasticfilesystem:PutFileSystemPolicy action.

See also: AWS API Documentation

Request Syntax

)
type FileSystemId

string

param FileSystemId

[REQUIRED]

The ID of the EFS file system that you want to create or update the FileSystemPolicy for.

type Policy

string

param Policy

[REQUIRED]

The FileSystemPolicy that you're creating. Accepts a JSON formatted policy definition. To find out more about the elements that make up a file system policy, see EFS Resource-based Policies .

type BypassPolicyLockoutSafetyCheck

boolean

param BypassPolicyLockoutSafetyCheck

(Optional) A flag to indicate whether to bypass the FileSystemPolicy lockout safety check. The policy lockout safety check determines whether the policy in the request will prevent the principal making the request will be locked out from making future PutFileSystemPolicy requests on the file system. Set BypassPolicyLockoutSafetyCheck to True only when you intend to prevent the principal that is making the request from making a subsequent PutFileSystemPolicy request on the file system. The default value is False.

CreateMountTarget (updated) Link ¶
Changes (response)
{'AvailabilityZoneId': 'string', 'AvailabilityZoneName': 'string'}

Creates a mount target for a file system. You can then mount the file system on EC2 instances by using the mount target.

You can create one mount target in each Availability Zone in your VPC. All EC2 instances in a VPC within a given Availability Zone share a single mount target for a given file system. If you have multiple subnets in an Availability Zone, you create a mount target in one of the subnets. EC2 instances do not need to be in the same subnet as the mount target in order to access their file system. For more information, see Amazon EFS: How it Works .

In the request, you also specify a file system ID for which you are creating the mount target and the file system's lifecycle state must be available . For more information, see DescribeFileSystems .

In the request, you also provide a subnet ID, which determines the following:

  • VPC in which Amazon EFS creates the mount target

  • Availability Zone in which Amazon EFS creates the mount target

  • IP address range from which Amazon EFS selects the IP address of the mount target (if you don't specify an IP address in the request)

After creating the mount target, Amazon EFS returns a response that includes, a MountTargetId and an IpAddress . You use this IP address when mounting the file system in an EC2 instance. You can also use the mount target's DNS name when mounting the file system. The EC2 instance on which you mount the file system by using the mount target can resolve the mount target's DNS name to its IP address. For more information, see How it Works: Implementation Overview .

Note that you can create mount targets for a file system in only one VPC, and there can be only one mount target per Availability Zone. That is, if the file system already has one or more mount targets created for it, the subnet specified in the request to add another mount target must meet the following requirements:

  • Must belong to the same VPC as the subnets of the existing mount targets

  • Must not be in the same Availability Zone as any of the subnets of the existing mount targets

If the request satisfies the requirements, Amazon EFS does the following:

  • Creates a new mount target in the specified subnet.

  • Also creates a new network interface in the subnet as follows:

    • If the request provides an IpAddress , Amazon EFS assigns that IP address to the network interface. Otherwise, Amazon EFS assigns a free address in the subnet (in the same way that the Amazon EC2 CreateNetworkInterface call does when a request does not specify a primary private IP address).

    • If the request provides SecurityGroups , this network interface is associated with those security groups. Otherwise, it belongs to the default security group for the subnet's VPC.

    • Assigns the description Mount target *fsmt-id* for file system *fs-id* `` where `` *fsmt-id* `` is the mount target ID, and `` *fs-id* `` is the ``FileSystemId .

    • Sets the requesterManaged property of the network interface to true , and the requesterId value to EFS .

Each Amazon EFS mount target has one corresponding requester-managed EC2 network interface. After the network interface is created, Amazon EFS sets the NetworkInterfaceId field in the mount target's description to the network interface ID, and the IpAddress field to its address. If network interface creation fails, the entire CreateMountTarget operation fails.

Note

The CreateMountTarget call returns only after creating the network interface, but while the mount target state is still creating , you can check the mount target creation status by calling the DescribeMountTargets operation, which among other things returns the mount target state.

We recommend that you create a mount target in each of the Availability Zones. There are cost considerations for using a file system in an Availability Zone through a mount target created in another Availability Zone. For more information, see Amazon EFS . In addition, by always using a mount target local to the instance's Availability Zone, you eliminate a partial failure scenario. If the Availability Zone in which your mount target is created goes down, then you can't access your file system through that mount target.

This operation requires permissions for the following action on the file system:

  • elasticfilesystem:CreateMountTarget

This operation also requires permissions for the following Amazon EC2 actions:

  • ec2:DescribeSubnets

  • ec2:DescribeNetworkInterfaces

  • ec2:CreateNetworkInterface

Response
{'MountTargets': {'AvailabilityZoneId': 'string',
                  'AvailabilityZoneName': 'string'}}

Returns the descriptions of all the current mount targets, or a specific mount target, for a file system. When requesting all of the current mount targets, the order of mount targets returned in the response is unspecified.

This operation requires permissions for the elasticfilesystem:DescribeMountTargets action, on either the file system ID that you specify in FileSystemId , or on the file system of the mount target that you specify in MountTargetId .
