I’m trying to modify the settings of a cloudstor:aws plugin of a swarm deployment in order to enable EFS. The problem is that in order to alter the settings (`docker plugin set cloudstor:aws KEY=VALUE`) I must first disable the plugin. That would be fine except I am unable to enable the plugin after I set the EFS settings.

The error I’m getting:

@dockerizeit1 Thanks. I submitted my own issue and was provided a workaround: [https://github.com/docker/for-aws/issues/98](https://github.com/docker/for-aws/issues/98)

TL;DR: Both EFS\_ID\_REGULAR and EFS\_ID\_MAXIO must be set to different ids. Apparently the install script expects both and if one uses the same id for both it causes duplicate volume issues. Cheers.
