Basically, I'm creating a StatefulSet deployment with 2 pods (single host cluster), I would like to that each pod will be able to mount to a base folder in the host, and to a subfolder beneath it:
Base folder mount: /mnt/disks/ssd
Pod#1 - /mnt/disks/ssd/pod-1
Pod#2 - /mnt/disks/ssd/pod-2
I've managed only to mount the first pod to the base folder, but the 2nd folder cannot mount (as the volume is already taken)
This is the volume:
apiVersion: v1
kind: PersistentVolume
metadata:
name: example-local-pv
spec:
capacity:
storage: 5Gi
accessModes:
- ReadWriteOnce
persistentVolumeReclaimPolicy: Delete
storageClassName: local-storage
local:
path: /mnt/disks/ssd
nodeAffinity:
required:
nodeSelectorTerms:
- matchExpressions:
- key: kubernetes.io/hostname
operator: In
values:
- ubuntukuber
This is the usage in the stateful set:
apiVersion: apps/v1beta1
kind: StatefulSet
metadata:
name: app
namespace: test-ns
spec:
serviceName: app
replicas: 2
....
....
volumeMounts:
- name: data
mountPath: /var/lib/app/data
volumeClaimTemplates:
- metadata:
name: data
spec:
accessModes: [ "ReadWriteOnce" ]
storageClassName: "local-storage"
resources:
requests:
storage: 2Gi
So, i basically would like that each replica would use its own subfolder - how can one achieve it?
\== EDIT ==
I've made some progress, i'm able to mount several replicas into the same mount, using the following YAMLs (the app i'm trying to do it on is rabbitmq - so i'll leave the app name as is)
---
kind: PersistentVolume
apiVersion: v1
metadata:
name: pv-local
namespace: test-rabbitmq
labels:
type: local
spec:
storageClassName: local
capacity:
storage: 6Gi
accessModes:
- ReadWriteOnce
hostPath:
path: "/mnt/disks"
---
kind: PersistentVolumeClaim
apiVersion: v1
metadata:
name: hostpath-pvc
namespace: test-rabbitmq
spec:
storageClassName: local
accessModes:
- ReadWriteOnce
resources:
requests:
storage: 3Gi
selector:
matchLabels:
type: local
---
In the StatefulSet i'm declaring this volume:
volumes:
- name: rabbitmq-data
persistentVolumeClaim:
claimName: hostpath-pvc
And mounting "rabbitmq-data".
Both pods mount to the same folder, but will not create subfolders - this is no terrible situation as by default there are rabbitmq's subfolders - i'll try to expand it into each pod to use a subfolder
I am able to achieve the above scenario, what you need is "claimRef" in your pv to bind your PVC. Please have a look at following pv json and statefulset json
PV-0.json
{
"kind": "PersistentVolume",
"apiVersion": "v1",
"metadata": {
"name": "pv-data-vol-0",
"labels": {
"type": "local"
}
},
"spec": {
"capacity": {
"storage": "10Gi"
},
"accessModes": [
"ReadWriteOnce"
],
"storageClassName": "local-storage",
"local": {
"path": "/prafull/data/pv-0"
},
"claimRef": {
"namespace": "default",
"name": "data-test-sf-0"
},
"nodeAffinity": {
"required": {
"nodeSelectorTerms": [
{
"matchExpressions": [
{
"key": "kubernetes.io/hostname",
"operator": "In",
"values": [
"ip-10-0-1-46.ec2.internal"
]
}
]
}
]
}
}
}
}
PV-1.json
{
"kind": "PersistentVolume",
"apiVersion": "v1",
"metadata": {
"name": "pv-data-vol-1",
"labels": {
"type": "local"
}
},
"spec": {
"capacity": {
"storage": "10Gi"
},
"accessModes": [
"ReadWriteOnce"
],
"storageClassName": "local-storage",
"local": {
"path": "/prafull/data/pv-1"
},
"claimRef": {
"namespace": "default",
"name": "data-test-sf-1"
},
"nodeAffinity": {
"required": {

{
"matchExpressions": [
{

"operator": "In",
"values": [
"ip-10-0-1-46.ec2.internal"
]
}
]
}
]
}
}
}
}
Statefulset.json
{
"kind": "StatefulSet",
"apiVersion": "apps/v1beta1",
"metadata": {
"name": "test-sf",
"labels": {
"state": "test-sf"
}
},
"spec": {
"replicas": 2,
"template": {
"metadata": {
"labels": {
"app": "test-sf"
},
"annotations": {
"pod.alpha.kubernetes.io/initialized": "true"
}
}
...
...
},
"volumeClaimTemplates": [
{
"metadata": {
"name": "data"
},
"spec": {
"accessModes": [
"ReadWriteOnce"
],
"storageClassName": "local-storage",
"resources": {
"requests": {
"storage": "10Gi"
}
}
}
}
]
}
}
There will be two pods created test-sf-0 and test-sf-1 which in-turn will be created two PVC data-test-sf-0 and data-test-sf-1 which will be bound to PV-0 and Pv-1 respectively. Hence test-sf-0 will write to the location specified in PV-0 and test-sf-1 will write in location specified on PV-1. Hope this helps.
