I wanted to attach a EC2 volume to multiple EC2 instance and create a common directory for all my scripts. I was not able to do this.

Is it possible to mount some shared storage between all my EC2 instances to keep common files like scripts? Can I use S3?

You could use S3 for this, or you could have a single instance will all the files in, and then push (rsync for example) these files to the locations you want them- you would only have 1 set of files to keep up-to-date then.

Can you mount S3 against an amazon instance? – Tihom Jan 23 '11 at 19:46
Take a look at: code.google.com/p/s3fs – AliGibbs Jan 23 '11 at 19:48

You can use an nfs share on an instance.
