aws-xray-daemon VS aws-efs-csi-driver

The AWS X-Ray daemon is a core software application that listens for traffic on UDP port 2000. It gathers raw segment data and relays it to the AWS X-Ray API. The daemon needs to work in conjunction with the AWS X-Ray SDKs and must be running so that the data sent by the SDKs can reach the X-Ray service. The X-Ray daemon is an open-source project that you can follow on GitHub. See more details of the AWS X-Ray daemon here.

In the past I was have problems with GID allocator, something related to this problem.

However, the docs (https://github.com/kubernetes-sigs/aws-efs-csi-driver/blob/master/examples/kubernetes/dynamic_provisioning/README.md) are telling me to create EFS Mount Targets in the EKS subnets. Thats fine.

Fargate storage A Pod running on Fargate automatically mounts an Amazon EFS file system. You can't use dynamic persistent volume provisioning with Fargate nodes, but you can use static provisioning. For more information, see Amazon EFS CSI Driver on GitHub.

I guess something like this might go a long way to solve the problem https://github.com/kubernetes-sigs/aws-efs-csi-driver/pull/640 ? Though I see it isn't merged yet

I am currently trying to create an EFS for use within an EKS cluster. I've followed all the instructions, and everything seems to be working for the most part. However, when trying to apply the multiple_pods example deployment from here, the pods cannot succesfully mount the file system. The PV and PVC are both bound and look good, however the pods do not start and yield the following error message:

In each namespace, create a PV/PVC using the same fixed volume path. See "Volume Path in EKS CSI Driver" To make this work however, you MUST pre-create this volume path in your EFS (I usually just have an EC2 instance with it mounted to work on). From the docs above "Note: this feature requires the sub directory to mount precreated on EFS before consuming the volume from"
