Delete a Mount Target
First all mount targets need to be deleted:

Mount an EFS File System on an EC2 Instance
Using the EFS Mount Helper
This approach requires the presence of the EFS mount helper.
Install 'amazon-efs-utils' package:
sudo yum install -y amazon-efs-utils

Mount the file system:

Troubleshooting Mount Issues
First make sure the availability zone mount point is accessible: there is a route to it and there is no security group that gets in the way.
The IP address of the mount point can be obtained from the filesystem.
