I know where the location is by default which is under /var/lib/kubelet
However I don't want to depend on this knowledge. I'd like to get the location using command line or checking some config file (which hopefully is stored in a more permanent location).
Is there a way to determine where the location is? if indeed changed by the user?
So it depends how the root-dir parameter was applied to the kubelet:
F.e you should see this in systemctl status kubelet.
Another approach is to search for KubeletRootDir journalctl -u kubelet | grep KubeletRootDir
So please use this approach -root-dir by default = /var/lib/kubelet/
sudo ls -l /root-dir/`kubectl get pod -n mynamespace mypod -o 'jsonpath={.metadata.uid}'`/volumes/kubernetes.io~empty-dir/monted_volumeHope this help.
