AWS ECS Task Definition: Unknown parameter in volumes[0]: "dockerVolumeConfiguration", must be one of: name, host

Question

I am trying to run Wazuh/Wazuh docker container on ECS. I was able to register task definition and launch container using Terraform. However, I am facing an issue with "Volume"(Data Volume) while registering tak definition using AWS CLI command.

Command: aws ecs --region eu-west-1 register-task-definition --family hids --cli-input-json file://task-definition.json

Error: ParamValidationError: Parameter validation failed: Unknown parameter in volumes[0]: "dockerVolumeConfiguration", must be one of: name, host 2019-08-29 07:31:59,195 - MainThread - awscli.clidriver - DEBUG - Exiting with rc 255

I tried by adding "host" parameter(however it supports Bind Mounts only). But got the same error.

    "volumes": [
  {
      "name": "ossec-data",
      "host": {
      "sourcePath": "/var/ossec/data"
    },
      "dockerVolumeConfiguration": {
      "scope": "shared",
      "driver": "local",
      "autoprovision": true
    }
  }
]

ECS should register the task definition having 4 Data Volumes and associated mount points.

Got the issue. Removed "dockerVolumeConfiguration" parameter from "Volume" configuration and it worked.

"volumes": [
{
    "name": "ossec-data",
    "host": {
      "sourcePath": "/ecs/ossec-data"
    }

},
{
  "name": "filebeat_etc",
  "host": {
      "sourcePath": "/ecs/filebeat_etc"
    }

},
{
  "name": "filebeat_lib",
  "host": {
      "sourcePath": "/ecs/filebeat_lib"
    }

},
{
  "name": "postfix",
  "host": {
      "sourcePath": "/ecs/postfix"
    }

} ]
