[StarCluster] FW: problem with EBS volume

Hi,

First, thank you for Starcluster, it is making this much easier. I am running into a problem, however. I am trying to start a cluster with an attached pre-existing EBS volume, but I keep getting this error.

!!! ERROR - volume 'fraenkel
[volume fraenkel]
VOLUME_ID = vol-5e75ba11
MOUNT_PATH = /home' not defined in config

That volume id is for a 20GB volume I have already created and previously used, but which is not currently attached to anything. Am I doing something wrong? My config file (stripped of a bunch of comments) looks like:

[cluster defcluster]
CLUSTER_SIZE = 16
# create the following user on the cluster
CLUSTER_USER = sgeadmin
CLUSTER_SHELL = bash
NODE_IMAGE_ID = ami-3393a45a
NODE_INSTANCE_TYPE = c3.large
VOLUMES=fraenkel

 [volume fraenkel]
# attach vol-5e75ba11 to /home on master node and NFS-shre to worker nodes
 VOLUME_ID = vol-5e75ba11
 MOUNT_PATH = /home

Thanks for any help!
