I have a yml file where I create a pvc on my provider (digital ocean)
apiVersion: v1
kind: PersistentVolumeClaim
metadata:
name: test-pvc
namespace: test
spec:
accessModes:
- ReadWriteOnce
resources:
requests:
storage: 10Gi
storageClassName: do-block-storage
I am also using a helm chart and want to be able to point to the already created pvc How can I do this? This helm chart is deployed after the PVC is already created/deployed
master:
persistence:
enabled: true
## mariadb data Persistent Volume Storage Class
## If defined, storageClassName: <storageClass>
## If set to "-", storageClassName: "", which disables dynamic provisioning
## If undefined (the default) or set to null, no storageClassName spec is
## set, choosing the default provisioner. (gp2 on AWS, standard on
## GKE, AWS & OpenStack)
##
# storageClass: "-"
accessMode: ReadWriteOnce
size: 10Gi
To mount your PVC in your helm chart, do this:
master:
persistence:
enabled: false #Setting it to false
Something like this:
apiVersion: v1
kind: Pod
metadata:
name: task-pv-pod
spec:
volumes:
- name: task-pv-storage
persistentVolumeClaim:
claimName: test-pvc # pointing to existing test-pvc
containers:
- name: task-pv-container
image: nginx
ports:
- containerPort: 80
name: "http-server"
volumeMounts:
- mountPath: "/usr/share/nginx/html"
name: task-pv-storage
Update:
Specifically in your case, you can specify your pvc name against existingClaim parameter in values.yaml, it will be picked up by your deployment.
