The storage class looks fine. If the persistent volume is correct (how did you create it?), you should make sure that your Elasticsearch resource contains `volumeClaimTemplates` part and it references your storage class name (see below). I didn't see it added in the output you've posted.

```auto
spec:
  nodeSets:
  - name: default
    count: 3
    volumeClaimTemplates:
    - metadata:
        name: elasticsearch-data
      spec:
        accessModes:
        - ReadWriteOnce
        resources:
          requests:
            storage: 5Gi
        storageClassName: elasticsearch

```

Also, can you format any output using ````output goes here````? It'll be much easier to read.
