(kubectl) Automatically Creating an SFS Volume

Notes and Constraints

The following configuration example applies to clusters of Kubernetes 1.13 or earlier.

Procedure

  1. Use kubectl to connect to the cluster. For details, see Connecting to a Cluster Using kubectl.

  2. Run the following commands to configure the pvc-sfs-auto-example.yaml file, which is used to create a PVC.

    touch pvc-sfs-auto-example.yaml

    vi pvc-sfs-auto-example.yaml

    Example YAML file:

    apiVersion: v1
    kind: PersistentVolumeClaim
    metadata:
      annotations:
        volume.beta.kubernetes.io/storage-class: nfs-rw
      name: pvc-sfs-auto-example
      namespace: default
    spec:
      accessModes:
      - ReadWriteMany
      resources:
        requests:
          storage: 10Gi
    
    Table 1 Key parameters

    Parameter

    Description

    File storage class. Currently, the standard file protocol type (nfs-rw) is supported.

    name

    Name of the PVC to be created.

    accessModes
