My Jenkins Master working on Windows Server and want to run a shell script with GitBash. I want to attach the EBS volume to EC2. When I run "awscli" command in GitBash, I am getting a weird invalid parameter.

$ aws ec2 attach-volume  --device /dev/sdf --volume-id vol-0d5736e1b8be30e92  --instance-id i-036540a7e7bbf712b

An error occurred (InvalidParameterValue) when calling the AttachVolume operation: Value (C:/Program Files/Git/dev/sdf) for parameter device is invalid. C:/Program Files/Git/dev/sdf is not a valid EBS device name.

  • that seems like window having trouble with slashes, can you try with `--device "/dev/xvda"` – Adiii Feb 03 '21 at 02:36
  • Adiii thank you for your comment, but I have tried already the same error. I also tried "\/dev\/xvda". – Rustam Sariyev Feb 03 '21 at 09:37

Finally, I found the problem.

aws ec2 attach-volume --volume-id  vol-00817f61e233134fb --instance-id i-036540a7e7bbf712b  --device '//dev\sdf'
