Define Storageclass

Introduction

Dynamic Volume Provisioning allows storage volumes to be created on-demand. StorageClass should be pre-created to define which provisoner should be used and what parameters should be passed when dynamic provisioning is invoked. (See parameters for AWS EBS)

Define Storage Class

Copy/Paste the following commands into your Cloud9 Terminal.

mkdir ~/environment/templates
cd ~/environment/templates
wget https://eksworkshop.com/statefulset/storageclass.files/mysql-storageclass.yml

Check the configuration of mysql-storageclass.yml file by following command.

cat ~/environment/templates/mysql-storageclass.yml

You can see provisioner is kubernetes.io/aws-ebs and type is gp2 specified as a parameter.

kind: StorageClass
apiVersion: storage.k8s.io/v1
metadata:
  name: mysql-gp2
provisioner: kubernetes.io/aws-ebs
parameters:
  type: gp2
reclaimPolicy: Delete
mountOptions:
- debug

Create storageclass “mysql-gp2” by following command.

kubectl create -f ~/environment/templates/mysql-storageclass.yml

We will specify “mysql-gp2” as the storageClassName in volumeClaimTemplates at “Create StatefulSet” section later.

volumeClaimTemplates:
  - metadata:
      name: data
    spec:
      accessModes: ["ReadWriteOnce"]
      storageClassName: mysql-gp2
      resources:
        requests:
          storage: 10Gi
