I'm starting with GKE (and kubernetes in general) and I want to mount a persistent volume on a pod using a gcePersistentDisk.
I first created a Persistent Disk (project-data) in Compute Engine, then created a PersistentVolume and a PersistentVolumeClaim like so:
apiVersion: v1
kind: PersistentVolume
metadata:
name: project-data
spec:
storageClassName: standard
capacity:
storage: 20G
accessModes:
- ReadWriteOnce
gcePersistentDisk:
pdName: project-data
fsType: ext4
---
apiVersion: v1
kind: PersistentVolumeClaim
metadata:
name: project-data-claim
spec:
storageClassName: standard
volumeName: project-data
accessModes:
- ReadWriteOnce
resources:
requests:
storage: 20G
selector:
matchLabels:
app: myappAfter applying this config, I see in GKE/Storage that my PVC is "Bound", but I can't find a way to access my volume in myapp.
I tried to edit the deployment yaml in the console by adding:
volumeMounts:
- mountPath: /data
name: project-data...but this modification is refused by the console (it seems that this kind of edit is forbidden).
How can I finally see my PersistentVolume as a filesystem in my app?
First of all, PVC should be defined in the volumes section:
volumes:
- name: project-data
persistentVolumeClaim:
claimName: project-data-claimAnd if it's refuesed to edit the pod directly, you can edit the yaml file, then apply it:
$ kubectl apply -f your.yamlAlso, since you have the selector defined in your pvc configuration, I think you should have label defined in your pv configuration.
