Define Local Storage

  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

          values:

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

Make our local-storage class the default

kubectl patch storageclass local-storage -p '{"metadata": {"annotations":{"storageclass.kubernetes.io/is-default-class":"false"}}}'

Make a claim using the default

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

Make a claim by specifying the storage class

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

ssh k8sworker1
sudo mkdir -p /var/k8s/LOCAL_STORAGE

Repeat for all nodes requiring local storage.

From master node

kubectl apply -f localstorage.yml
