I have an EBS volume (e.g. /dev/sdf) that has been attached to an EC2 instance (which boots from a different EBS volume), and I have mounted the volume (through mount /dev/sdf /data). When I stop and start again the instance, the volume is still attached but no longer mounted, and I have to manually mount it again.
Is there a way to make the volume /dev/sdf automatically mounted to /data upon starting the instance?
Make an entry to /etc/fstab
Entry would be like:
/dev/sdf /data ext3 defaults 1 1
This will automatically mount the volume during reboot.
