I am using in an Elasticsearch
instance, a StorageClass
that has Retain
(instead of Delete
) as its reclaim policy.
Here are my PVC
s before deleting the Elasticsearch
instance
▶ k get pvc
NAME STATUS VOLUME CAPACITY ACCESS MODES STORAGECLASS AGE
elasticsearch-data--es-multirolenodes1-0 Bound pvc-ba157213-67cf-4b81-8fe2-6211b771e62c 20Gi RWO balanced-retain-csi 8m15s

I deleted and re-installed the helm
chart with the hope that due to the Retain
policy, the new pods (i.e. their PVC
s would bind to the existing PV
s (and data wouldn't get lost)
However now my pods of the nodeSet
are all in pending state with this error
Events:
Type Reason Age From Message
---- ------ ---- ---- -------
Warning FailedScheduling 2m37s default-scheduler persistentvolumeclaim "elasticsearch-data--es-multirolenodes1-0" is being deleted

Warning FailedScheduling 12s (x7 over 2m37s) default-scheduler persistentvolumeclaim "elasticsearch-data--es-multirolenodes1-0" not found
Why is this happening?
Is there a way to save the data when the Elasticsearch
resource is accidentally deleted (and recreated with the exact same configuration) ?
edit: Here are the corresponding PV
s
▶ k get pv

There is of course no PVC
now
▶ k get pvc
No resources found in elastic namespace.
The StorageClass
under consideration is using the csi
driver for the GCP persistent disk, fwiw
