How to create one PVC in Kubernetes Cluster

Question

Hi Guys,

I am new to Kubernetes. I have launched one Pod and deploy HTTPd webserver. But when I updated my Pod all the previous data erased automatically. So I want to implement persistent volume concept. Can anyone tell me how can I do that?

Hi@akhtar,

In Kubernetes, no command is available to create PVC directly. You need to create one YML file and create one script for PVC. I have attached one example below for your reference.

apiVersion: v1
kind: PersistentVolumeClaim
metadata:
  name: lwpvc1
spec:
  resources:
    requests:
      storage: 20Gi
  accessModes:
    - ReadWriteOnce

Copy this code in a YML file and run the below-given command.

$ kubectl create -f file_name

It will automatically create one PVC for you.
