How to use persistent Storage on bare metal? (no minikube)

Elastic Orchestration Elastic Cloud on Kubernetes (ECK)

Hi,

I am trying to bring a cluster alive using Elastic cloud on kubernetes.

I'v setup a bare metal kubernetes cluster (no minikube). I am a little stuck with the persistent local storage descibed here: https://github.com/elastic/cloud-on-k8s/tree/master/local-volume

Since I am not using GCE nor minikube, how do I setup this?

Thanks, Andreas

Hi @asp,

Our dynamic local-volume provisioner is a prototype for dynamic local volume provisioning relying on LVM. It's not ready for production-grade setups.

You should probably look into the SIG Storage Local Static Provisioner. It allows you to create static local persistent volumes, by using the disks of each host, which can then be used as any regular persistent volume with ECK.
