  • The regions mentioned above are the same region. Currently, cross-region configuration is not supported.
  • SFS Turbo will create two private IP addresses and one virtual IP address under the subnet you specified.
  • To ensure normal use, SFS Turbo will enable the inbound rules for ports 111, 445, 2049, 2051, 2052, and 20048 in the security group you specified.
  • An ECS cannot access file systems on VPCs other than the one where the ECS resides. Make sure that you enter the ID of the VPC when creating a file system to be the VPC where the ECS resides for mounting the file system.
