Description

I have a docker image which uses S3FS to mount an amazon S3 bucket for use as a local filesystem. Playing around with this container manually, using docker, i am able to use S3FS as expected.

When trying to use this image with the mesos containerizer, i get the following error:
fuse: device not found, try 'modprobe fuse' first

The way i'm launching a job that runs this s3fs command is via the aurora scheduler. Somehow it seems that docker is able to use the fuse kernel plugin, but the mesos containerizer does not.

I've also created a stackoverflow topic about this issue here: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/44569238/using-s3fs-in-a-docker-container-ran-by-the-mesos-containerizer/
