      volumes:

Make a Claim using Default Storage Class

Code Block
languageyml
kind: PersistentVolumeClaim
apiVersion: v1
metadata:
  name: my-claim
spec:
  storageClassName: ""
  accessModes:
    - ReadWriteOnce
  resources:
    requests:
      storage: 2Gi

...

  • Only one claim can be made against a volume.
  • File path (local.path) must exist for the volume to be usable.
  • USE HOSTPATH STORAGE since it will create the folders for you.


Code Block
languageyml
apiVersion: v1
kind: PersistentVolume
metadata:
  name: local-storage
spec:
  capacity:
    storage: 10Gi
  # volumeMode field requires BlockVolume Alpha feature gate to be enabled.
  volumeMode: Filesystem
  accessModes:
  - ReadWriteOnce
  persistentVolumeReclaimPolicy: Persist
  storageClassName: local-storage
  local:
    path: /var/k8s/LOCAL_STORAGE
  nodeAffinity:
    required:
      nodeSelectorTerms:
      - matchExpressions:
        - key: kubernetes.io/hostname
          operator: In
          values:
          - k8sworker1
          - k8sworker2
          - k8sworker3
          - docker-for-desktop

Make a claim by specifying the storage class

Code Block
languageyml
kind: PersistentVolumeClaim
apiVersion: v1
metadata:
  name: local-storage-claim
spec:
  storageClassName: local-storage
  accessModes:
    - ReadWriteOnce
  resources:
    requests:
      storage: 3Gi

...

We can create a storage class for our local-storage and use it as default storage. The only issue with doing this with local-storage is that we need to pre-build all of the persistent volumes. Since only 1 claim can be made against a volume, we will need to make a few.


Code Block
languageyml
apiVersion: storage.k8s.io/v1
kind: StorageClass
metadata:
  name: local-storage
  annotations:
    storageclass.kubernetes.io/is-default-class: "true"
provisioner: keystone/local-storage
volumeBindingMode: Immediate
reclaimPolicy: Retain

apiVersion: v1
kind: PersistentVolume
metadata:
  name: local-storage-1
spec:
  capacity:
    storage: 2Gi
  volumeMode: Filesystem
  accessModes:
  - ReadWriteOnce
  persistentVolumeReclaimPolicy: Retain
  storageClassName: local-storage
  local:
    path: /var/pv1
  nodeAffinity:
    required:
      nodeSelectorTerms:
      - matchExpressions:
        - key: kubernetes.io/hostname
          operator: NotIn
          values:
          - master

To use the default storage of the cluster, you just need to create a claim and specify "" for storageClassName.


Code Block
languageyml
kind: PersistentVolumeClaim
apiVersion: v1
metadata:
  name: local-storage-claim
spec:
  storageClassName: ""
  accessModes:
    - ReadWriteOnce
  resources:
    requests:
      storage: 3Gi
