Phase

Description

Available

A free resource not yet bound to a claim.

Bound

The volume is bound to a claim.

Released

The claim was deleted, but the resource is not yet reclaimed by the cluster.

Failed

The volume has failed its automatic reclamation.

Last phase transition time

The LastPhaseTransitionTime field has a timestamp that updates every time a persistent volume (PV) transitions to a different phase (pv.Status.Phase). To find the time of the last phase transition for a PV, run the following command:

$ oc get pv <pv_name> -o json | jq '.status.lastPhaseTransitionTime'

For '.status.lastPhaseTransitionTime' specify the name of the PV that you want to see the last phase transition.

Mount options

You can specify mount options while mounting a PV by using the attribute mountOptions.

For example:

Mount options example

apiVersion: v1
kind: PersistentVolume
metadata:
  name: pv0001
spec:
  capacity:
    storage: 1Gi
  accessModes:
    - ReadWriteOnce
  mountOptions:
    - nfsvers=4.1
  nfs:
    path: /tmp
    server: 172.17.0.2
  persistentVolumeReclaimPolicy: Retain
  claimRef:
    name: claim1
    namespace: default

spec.mountOptions: Specified mount options are used while mounting the PV to the disk.

AWS Elastic Block Store (EBS)
AWS Elastic File Storage (EFS)
Azure Disk
Azure File
