(kubectl) Creating a Pod Mounted with an EVS Volume

Scenarios

After an EVS volume is created or imported to CCE, you can mount it to a workload.

EVS volumes cannot be mounted across AZs. Before mounting a volume, you can run the kubectl get pvc command to obtain the available PVCs in the AZ where the current cluster is located.

Notes and Constraints

The following configuration example applies to clusters of Kubernetes 1.13 or earlier.

Procedure

1. Use kubectl to access the cluster. For details, see Connecting to a Cluster Using kubectl.
2. Run the following commands to configure the evs-deployment-example.yaml file, which is used to create a Deployment.

   touch evs-deployment-example.yaml

   vi evs-deployment-example.yaml

   Example of mounting an EVS volume to a Deployment (PVC-based, shared volume):

   apiVersion: apps/v1 
   kind: Deployment 
   metadata: 
     name: evs-deployment-example 
     namespace: default 
   spec: 
     replicas: 1 
     selector: 
       matchLabels: 
         app: evs-deployment-example 
     template: 
       metadata: 
         labels: 
           app: evs-deployment-example 
       spec: 
         containers: 
         - image: nginx
           name: container-0 
           volumeMounts: 
           - mountPath: /tmp 
             name: pvc-evs-example 
         imagePullSecrets:
           - name: default-secret
         restartPolicy: Always 
         volumes: 
         - name: pvc-evs-example 
           persistentVolumeClaim: 
             claimName: pvc-evs-auto-example

   Table 1 Key parameters

   Parent Parameter	Parameter	Description
   spec.template.spec.containers.volumeMounts	name	Name of the volume mounted to the container.
   spec.template.spec.containers.volumeMounts	mountPath	Mount path of the container. In this example, the volume is mounted to the /tmp directory.
   spec.template.spec.volumes	name	Name of the volume.
   spec.template.spec.volumes.persistentVolumeClaim	claimName	Name of an existing PVC.

   

   spec.template.spec.containers.volumeMounts.name and spec.template.spec.volumes.name must be consistent because they have a mapping relationship.

   Mounting an EVS volume to a StatefulSet (PVC template-based, non-shared volume):

   Example YAML:

   apiVersion: apps/v1
   kind: StatefulSet
   metadata:
     name: deploy-evs-sas-in
   spec:
     replicas: 1
     selector:
       matchLabels:
         app: deploy-evs-sata-in
     template:
       metadata:
         labels:
           app: deploy-evs-sata-in
           failure-domain.beta.kubernetes.io/region: ap-southeast-1
           failure-domain.beta.kubernetes.io/zone: ap-southeast-1a
       spec:
         containers:
           - name: container-0
             image: 'nginx:1.12-alpine-perl'
             volumeMounts:
               - name: bs-sas-mountoptionpvc
                 mountPath: /tmp
         imagePullSecrets:
           - name: default-secret
     volumeClaimTemplates:
       - metadata:
           name: bs-sas-mountoptionpvc
           annotations:
             volume.beta.kubernetes.io/storage-class: sas
             volume.beta.kubernetes.io/storage-provisioner: flexvolume-huawei.com/fuxivol
         spec:
           accessModes:
             - ReadWriteOnce
           resources:
             requests:
               storage: 10Gi
     serviceName: wwww

   Table 2 Key parameters

   Parent Parameter	Parameter	Description
   metadata	name	Name of the created workload.
   spec.template.spec.containers	image	Image of the workload.
   spec.template.spec.containers.volumeMount	mountPath	Mount path of the container. In this example, the volume is mounted to the /tmp directory.
   spec	serviceName	Service corresponding to the workload. For details about how to create a Service, see Creating a StatefulSet.

   

   spec.template.spec.containers.volumeMounts.name and spec.volumeClaimTemplates.metadata.name must be consistent because they have a mapping relationship.

3. Run the following command to create the pod:

   kubectl create -f evs-deployment-example.yaml

   After the creation is complete, log in to the CCE console. In the navigation pane, choose Resource Management > Storage > EVS. Then, click the PVC name. On the PVC details page, you can view the binding relationship between the EVS volume and the PVC.
