How To
Summary
This technote describes step by step how to create a new Persistent Volume Claim. (PVC)
Steps
OpenShift Persistent Storage
You have access to PVC creation on “Update Manage workspace configuration” MAS console screen.
Go to MAS console => Workspace => Manage.
On the top-right section click on “Update Configuration”.


By default, System managed check box is checked. Uncheck it for PVC creation.
It is not required to create a PV, PVC creation handles PV creation automatically.
You must fill out all the fields as the screenshot.
PVC name: you can use any name to identify PVC.
Size: The size used by PVC must be a number followed by Gi.
Mount path: Path used by PVC inside the Liberty pod.
Storage class name: The value used here can be different depending on what storage class is created in Openshift.
In this example, I am using ocs-storagecluster-cephfs.
After you fill out all fields click on Apply changes and wait for the environment to finish the reconciliation process, which might take some time.
After the reconciliation finishes, you can confirm if PVC was created correctly if the status is “Bound”.
PVC is ready to be used by Manage application.
