Creating a PV (Discarded)

Function

This API is used to create a PV associated with cloud storage (for example, EVS, SFS, and OBS). This API has been discarded. Use the corresponding Kubernetes PV API instead.

The URL for storage management is in the format of https://{clusterid}.Endpoint/uri. In the URL, {clusterid} indicates a cluster ID, and uri indicates the resource path, that is, the path for API access. If https://Endpoint/uri is used, the X-Cluster-ID parameter must be specified in the request header.

Calling Method

For details, see Calling APIs.

Authorization

Each account has all the permissions required to call all APIs, but IAM users must be assigned the required permissions.

If you are using role/policy-based authorization, see the required permissions in Permissions Policies and Supported Actions.
If you are using identity policy-based authorization, no identity policy-based permissions are required for calling this API.

URI

POST /api/v1/cloudpersistentvolumes

Request Parameters

**Table 1** Request header parameters
Parameter	Mandatory	Type	Description
Content-Type	Yes	String	The request body type or format Possible values: application/json;charset=utf-8 application/json
X-Auth-Token	Yes	String	Requests for calling an API can be authenticated using either a token or AK/SK. If token-based authentication is used, this parameter is mandatory and must be set to a user token. For details about how to obtain a token, see Authentication. Maximum length: 16,384 characters
X-Cluster-ID	No	String	Cluster ID. This parameter is mandatory when the URL format https://Endpoint/uri is used. For details about how to obtain the value, see How to Obtain Parameters in the API URI.

**Table 2** Request body parameters
Parameter	Mandatory	Type	Description
apiVersion	Yes	String	API version. The value is fixed at v1. Default value: v1
kind	Yes	String	API type. The value is fixed at PersistentVolume. Default value: PersistentVolume
metadata	Yes	PersistentVolumeMetadata object	PV metadata information.
spec	Yes	PersistentVolumeSpec object	PV specifications.
status	No	PersistentVolumeStatus object	PV status information.

**Table 3** PersistentVolumeMetadata
Parameter	Mandatory	Type	Description
name	Yes	String	PV name. Enter 1 to 253 characters that start and end with a letter or digit. Only lowercase letters, digits, hyphens (-), and periods (.) are allowed. PV names must be unique in a namespace.
labels	No	Map<String,String>	PV labels, in the format of key-value pairs. A key must contain 1 to 63 characters that start with a letter or digit. Only letters, digits, hyphens (-), underscores (_), and periods (.) are allowed. A DNS subdomain can be prefixed to a key, for example, example.com/my-key, and contain a maximum of 253 characters. A value can be left empty or contain 1 to 63 characters that start with a letter or digit. Only letters, digits, hyphens (-), underscores (_), and periods (.) are allowed. Example label: "foo": "bar"

**Table 4** PersistentVolumeSpec
Parameter	Mandatory	Type	Description
flexVolume	Yes	FlexVolume object	FlexVolume storage plug-in of Kubernetes.
persistentVolumeReclaimPolicy	No	String	PV reclaim policy. Possible values: Retain: The Retain reclaim policy allows for manual reclamation of the resource. When the PVC is deleted, the PV still exists and the volume is considered "released". Recycle: The Recycle reclaim policy performs a basic scrub (rm -rf / thevolume / ) on the volume and makes it available again for a new claim. Delete: For volume plug-ins that support the Delete reclaim policy, deletion removes both the PV object from Kubernetes, as well as the associated storage asset in the external infrastructure. Volumes that were dynamically provisioned inherit the reclaim policy of their StorageClass, which defaults to Delete*.
accessModes	Yes	Array of strings	Access mode of the PV. ReadWriteOnce: The volume can be mounted to a single node in read/write mode. NOTE: This function is supported only when the cluster version is v1.13.10 and the storage-driver version is 1.0.19. ReadOnlyMany: The volume can be mounted to multiple nodes in read-only mode. ReadWriteMany: The volume can be mounted to multiple nodes in read/write mode.
