Well, that's not quite how multiattach volumes are intended to work. The
feature relies on your application and/or filesystem to support
multiattach/cluster aware volumes. You can't just use a regular filesystem
(ext4, etc.) and expect changes to the volume that are made from one
attached vm to propagate to other vms attached to the same volume.
