The status is always pending with the created time equal 1s or less than 1s.

The logs from kubelet show these messages at about a second interval:

Issue 2:
Possibly related to/duplicate of #29548

I'm running Kubernetes 1.3.0 and having trouble mounting EBS volumes to pods. The volumes seem to be attached to the minion, but not mounted.

xvdba device is the EBS volume I'm trying to mount:

ip-10-72-4-178 ~ # lsblk
NAME MAJ:MIN RM SIZE RO TYPE MOUNTPOINT
xvda 202:0 0 200G 0 disk
|-xvda1 202:1 0 128M 0 part /boot
