Reclaim Policy

It specifies how a PV will be handled if the bound PVC is deleted.

• If the parameter is set to Retain, when the PVC bound to the PV is deleted, the PV will be marked Released, but the underlying volume will be retained.
• If the parameter is set to Delete, when the PVC bound to the PV is deleted, the underlying volume and PV will also be deleted.

Value Range

Retain or Delete

Default Value

Retain

Modifiable

No. This parameter can only be configured during initialization.

Suggestions

Set the parameter to Retain, so that the underlying volumes will not be deleted if a PVC bound to a PV is deleted by mistake.
