Is volume bound or not?

1/26/2022

I am trying to make a mysql instant save on persistent volume, using minikube. PVCs get generated from a volumeClaimTemplate inside a statefulset. I created a few PVs (named pv-volume, pv-volume2, pv-volume3...) and the following storageclass:

apiVersion: storage.k8s.io/v1
kind: StorageClass
metadata:
  name: local-storage
provisioner: kubernetes.io/no-provisioner
volumeBindingMode: WaitForFirstConsumer

Now, when I start the statefulset first I get the error 0/1 nodes are available: 1 node(s) didn't find available persistent volumes to bind. but right after that Successfully assigned default/mysql-0 to minikube What should I think? From the volumes I see that those are bound to the pods. For completeness, here is the whole statefulset (its basically the one from the k8 guide with changes only to the template part):

apiVersion: apps/v1
kind: StatefulSet

          [[ `hostname` =~ -([0-9]+)$ ]] || exit 1

          echo [mysqld] > /mnt/conf.d/server-id.cnf

          echo server-id=$((100 + $ordinal)) >> /mnt/conf.d/server-id.cnf

        requests:
          storage: 1Gi

UPDATE

In order to provide more context, here is the declaration of my "local-storage" storageclass:

apiVersion: storage.k8s.io/v1
kind: StorageClass
metadata:
  name: local-storage
provisioner: kubernetes.io/no-provisioner
volumeBindingMode: WaitForFirstConsumer

And here is how I create volumes

apiVersion: v1
kind: PersistentVolume
metadata:
  name: pv-volume
spec:
  storageClassName: local-storage
  accessModes:
    - ReadWriteOnce
  capacity:
    storage: 1Gi
  hostPath:
    path: /data/

I made a few of those volumes, changing just the names, since I have to statically allocate them. In fact, this is the output of kubectl get pv

NAME         CAPACITY   ACCESS MODES   RECLAIM POLICY   STATUS      CLAIM                  STORAGECLASS    REASON   AGE
pv-volume    1Gi        RWO            Retain           Bound       default/data-mysql-0   local-storage            79s
pv-volume2   1Gi        RWO            Retain           Bound       default/data-mysql-1   local-storage            79s
pv-volume3   1Gi        RWO            Retain           Available                          local-storage            78s
pv-volume4   1Gi        RWO            Retain           Available                          local-storage            78s
pv-volume5   1Gi        RWO            Retain           Available                          local-storage            78s

And this is the output of kubectl get pvc, where it sees like the binding has succeeded for both mysql replicas.

NAME           STATUS   VOLUME       CAPACITY   ACCESS MODES   STORAGECLASS    AGE
data-mysql-0   Bound    pv-volume    1Gi        RWO            local-storage   2m11s
data-mysql-1   Bound    pv-volume2   1Gi        RWO            local-storage   61s
