Kubernetes stateful set are not using storage class to create persistance volume

1/22/2019

I am new to kubenetes. I have setup a cluster of kubernetes on two machine. and when I am deploying pods using stateful set.But kubernetes is not creating pvc.

I am doing POC for installing redis cluster on kubernets cluster, So For that I have downloaded a stateful set from below site url. [https://medium.com/zero-to/setup-persistence-redis-cluster-in-kubertenes-7d5b7ffdbd98]

This stateful set was working fine with minikube , but when I am deploying it on kubernetes cluster(I have created with 2 machine) It is giving below error:

root@xen-727:/usr/local/bin# kubectl get pv
No resources found.

I created one storage class :

root@xen-727:/usr/local/bin# kubectl get sc
NAME             TYPE
slow (default)   kubernetes.io/gce-pd

But After search a lot , It seems that kubernetes is not using this storage class to create pv.

storage class code:

apiVersion: storage.k8s.io/v1
kind: StorageClass
metadata:
  name: slow
  annotations:
    storageclass.kubernetes.io/is-default-class: "true"
provisioner: kubernetes.io/gce-pd
parameters:
  type: pd-standard

below is my complete code:

apiVersion: apps/v1beta1
kind: StatefulSet
metadata:
  name: redis-cluster
  labels:
    app: redis-cluster
spec:
  serviceName: redis-cluster
  replicas: 6
  template:

        imagePullPolicy: Always
        ports:
        - containerPort: 6379
          name: client
        - containerPort: 16379
          name: gossip
        command: ["/usr/local/bin/redis-server"]
        args: ["/redis-conf/redis.conf"]
        readinessProbe:
          exec:
            command:
            - sh
            - -c
            - "redis-cli -h $(hostname) ping"
          initialDelaySeconds: 15
          timeoutSeconds: 5
        livenessProbe:
          exec:
            command:
            - sh
            - -c
            - "redis-cli -h $(hostname) ping"
          initialDelaySeconds: 20
          periodSeconds: 3
        volumeMounts:
        - name: data
          mountPath: /data
          readOnly: false
  volumeClaimTemplates:
  - metadata:
      name: data
      labels:
        name: redis-cluster
      annotations:
        volume.alpha.kubernetes.io/storage-class: anything
    spec:
      accessModes: [ "ReadWriteOnce" ]
      resources:
        requests:
          storage: 100Mi

Expected output: It should create 6 nodes, with 6 pvc and 6 pv.

You need to create a storage that you are requesting with PersistentVolumeClaim.

Example of Volume types are available here.

A PersistentVolume (PV) is a piece of storage in the cluster that has been provisioned by an administrator. It is a resource in the cluster just like a node is a cluster resource. PVs are volume plugins like Volumes, but have a lifecycle independent of any individual pod that uses the PV. This API object captures the details of the implementation of the storage, be that NFS, iSCSI, or a cloud-provider-specific storage system.
A PersistentVolumeClaim (PVC) is a request for storage by a user. It is similar to a pod. Pods consume node resources and PVCs consume PV resources. Pods can request specific levels of resources (CPU and Memory). Claims can request specific size and access modes (e.g., can be mounted once read/write or many times read-only).

If you are on GCE, you can use gcePersistentDisk

A gcePersistentDisk volume mounts a Google Compute Engine (GCE) Persistent Disk into your Pod. Unlike emptyDir, which is erased when a Pod is removed, the contents of a PD are preserved and the volume is merely unmounted. This means that a PD can be pre-populated with data, and that data can be “handed off” between Pods.

You need to use the gcloud command to create a drive inside the GCE:

gcloud compute disks create --size=500GB --zone=us-central1-a my-data-disk

And using it inside a POD, like in the example below:

apiVersion: v1
kind: Pod
metadata:
  name: test-pd
spec:
  containers:
  - image: k8s.gcr.io/test-webserver
    name: test-container
    volumeMounts:
    - mountPath: /test-pd
      name: test-volume
  volumes:
  - name: test-volume
    # This GCE PD must already exist.
    gcePersistentDisk:
      pdName: my-data-disk
      fsType: ext4

If you prefer, you can setup your own nfs server and use it inside Kubernetes, an example on how to set it up, is available here.

You can also check the documentation on how to use volumes on AWS.

Hope this will be enough to help you.
