From what I've seen online everyone seems to mount additional EBS drives at /mnt/some_name
. However /mnt
is the mount point of the instance's ephemeral storage and this gets lost when the instance is stopped.
Assuming I've added the right entry in /etc/fstab
can I reboot or stop/start the instance and have the drive still mounted?
My thinking is that the mount point /mnt/some_name
will be lost during the reboot so the drive will not be able to be mounted. Am I right? Where should I mount things then?
