Manual storage expansion
You also can manually expand storage size by expanding PVC size.
To expand the data or catalog volumes
- Open the CR YAML file to edit.
- Configure spec.paused: true.
- Apply new CR YAML to stop MSDP operator from reconciling and repairing the pods automatically.
kubectl apply -f <your-cr-yaml>
- Patch the corresponding PVCs.
kubectl patch pvc <pvc-name> --type merge --patch '{"spec": {"resources": {"requests": {"storage": "<requested-size>"}}}}' -n <sample-namespace>
- Specify spec.paused: false in the CR.
- Apply new CR YAML to recover MSDP operator to continue to reconcile and repair the pods automatically.
kubectl apply -f <your-cr-yaml>
Note:
If you add new MSDP Engines later, the new Engines will respect the CR specification only. Your manual changes would not be respected by the new Engines.
