I've created a persistentVolumeClaim on my custom Kubernetes cluster, however it seems to be stuck in pending...

Do I need to install/configure some additional something? OR is this functionality only available on GCP / AWS?

pvc.yaml

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

describe pvc:
