Hi all,
I'm trying to figure out if remounting a different device is possible, and how if so. I might be missing something very simple, but here goes. Currently for example I have a resource mounting EFS similar to the following:
mount '/mnt/mountpoint' do
device 'us-east-1b.fs-99999999.efs.us-east-1.amazonaws.com:/sometarget1'
fstype "nfs"
options 'ro'
action [:mount, :enable]
end
Which works just fine as expected, it gets mounted, subsequent runs don't mess with it or create duplicate mounts, etc. Suppose that at some later point I change that to
device 'us-east-1b.fs-99999999.efs.us-east-1.amazonaws.com:/sometarget2'
instead. As expected, the following error is produced:
STDERR: mount.nfs: /mnt/mountpoint is busy or already mounted
This is using the most recent chef client (12.14.89). If I duplicate the resource and call it to unmount first, then it doesn't do anything (I suspect due to the same resource name). I could have a conditional that grabs the current volume name and umount/disable on the first run, then mount/enable the correct one on the next run. However that's obviously not ideal as it's better for this to happen on the same run.
Any advice would be quite appreciated.
Thanks!
