Description
The current template in S3 and linked from https://github.com/aws-samples/amazon-efs-tutorial/tree/master/in-cloud-transfer has this parameter entry:
DestinationEfsFilesystemId:
AllowedPattern: ^(fs-)([a-z0-9]{8})$
Description: Destination EFS filesystem id.
Type: String
Unfortunately, EFS identifiers have more hex digits than that. (I suspect they fit in 8 digits at the time the template was last updated.) Pasting the ID of a perfectly usable EFS instance thus triggers errors when trying to use the template. :-)
Changing the 8 to 17 (the current number of EFS hex digits) in a local copy of the template was sufficient.
