To add
ephemeralStorage
to an ECS work pool job template in Prefect, you can modify your job template JSON. Prefect allows you to manage and version control your base job templates, typically by storing them in a JSON file. Here's a general approach: 1. Create or Update the Job Template JSON: Include the
ephemeralStorage
configuration within the ECS task definition part of your job template JSON. This might look something like:
Copy code
json
   {
     "containerDefinitions": [
       {
         "name": "your-container-name",
         "image": "your-container-image",
         "memory": 512,
         "ephemeralStorage": {
           "sizeInGiB": 20
         }
       }
     ],
     "family": "your-task-family"
   }
2. Update the Work Pool: Use the Prefect CLI or API to update the work pool with your modified job template. For example, if your JSON file is named
base-job-template.json
, you can update the work pool using:
Copy code
bash
   prefect work-pool update --path base-job-template.json
3. Deploy and Run: Once updated, your ECS work pool will use this job template for all new flow runs. For more detailed instructions on managing work pools and job templates, you can refer to the Prefect documentation on work pools. Let me know if you need any more help.
