Lab Overview

This lab teaches you how to work with PersistentVolumes (PV) and PersistentVolumeClaims (PVC) in Kubernetes for managing stateful application storage.

You'll learn to:

  • Create PersistentVolumes with different access modes
  • Create PersistentVolumeClaims to request storage
  • Understand the PV-PVC binding process
  • Use volumes in pods for persistent storage
  • Manage volume reclaim policies
  • Troubleshoot common PV/PVC issues

PersistentVolumes and PVCs are essential for running stateful workloads like databases in Kubernetes, making this a key topic for the CKA exam.
