Can I Create a CCE Node Without Adding a Data Disk to the Node?

  • If System Component Storage is set to System Disk, you do not need to add a data disk.
  • Data disks are required if System Component Storage is set to Data Disk.

    A data disk dedicated for kubelet and the container engine will be attached to a new node. For details, see Data Disk Space Allocation. By default, CCE uses LVM to manage data disks. With LVM, you can adjust the disk space ratio for different resources on a data disk. For details, see LVM Overview.

    If the data disk is uninstalled or damaged, the container engine will malfunction and the node becomes unavailable.
