Assuming I want to make 1 `nodeSet` of 2-role nodes `masters`/`data` and 1 `nodeSet` with `data` nodes as follows:

```auto
  - name: master
    config:
      node.roles: ["master", "data"]
    count: 3
    volumeClaimTemplates:
    - metadata:
        name: elasticsearch-data
      spec:
        accessModes:
        - ReadWriteOnce
        resources:
          requests:
            storage: 150Gi
        storageClassName: balanced-rwo

```

```auto
  - name: data
    config:
      node.roles: ["data"]
    count: 3
    volumeClaimTemplates:
    - metadata:
        name: elasticsearch-data
      spec:
        accessModes:
        - ReadWriteOnce
        resources:
          requests:
            storage: 150Gi
        storageClassName: balanced-rwo

```

Does the value of the field `volumeClaimTemplates.metadata.name` (`elasticsearch-data` in this example) has to be the **same** in the 2 `nodeSets`? (assuming of course we want the same data in all of them)

The data volume claim must always be named `elasticsearch-data`
