| <!-- overview --> | ||
|
|
||
| This page shows how to change the access mode on an existing PersistentVolume to | ||
| use `ReadWriteOncePod`. | ||
|

||
| {{< note >}} | ||
| The `ReadWriteOncePod` access mode was introduced as an alpha feature in | ||
| Kubernetes 1.22. To use this feature in Kubernetes 1.22, you need to enable the | ||
| `ReadWriteOncePod` feature gate manually. | ||
| {{< /note >}} | ||
|
|
||
| {{< note >}} | ||
| The `ReadWriteOncePod` access mode is only supported for | ||
| {{< glossary_tooltip text="CSI" term_id="csi" >}} volumes. | ||
| To use this volume access mode you will need to update the following | ||
| [CSI sidecars](https://kubernetes-csi.github.io/docs/sidecar-containers.html) | ||
| to these versions or greater: | ||
|
|
||
| * [csi-provisioner:v3.0.0+](https://github.com/kubernetes-csi/external-provisioner/releases/tag/v3.0.0) | ||
| * [csi-attacher:v3.3.0+](https://github.com/kubernetes-csi/external-attacher/releases/tag/v3.3.0) | ||
| * [csi-resizer:v1.3.0+](https://github.com/kubernetes-csi/external-resizer/releases/tag/v1.3.0) | ||
| {{< /note >}} | ||
|
|
||
| ## Why should I use `ReadWriteOncePod`? | ||
|
|
||
| Prior to Kubernetes 1.22, the ReadWriteOnce access mode was commonly used to | ||
| restrict PersistentVolume access for workloads that required single-writer | ||
| access to storage. However, this access mode had a limitation: it restricted | ||
| volume access to a single *node*, allowing multiple pods on the same node to | ||
| read from and write to the same volume simultaneously. This could pose a risk | ||
| for applications that demand strict single-writer access for data safety. | ||
|
|
||
| If ensuring single-writer access is critical for your workloads, consider | ||
| migrating your volumes to `ReadWriteOncePod`. | ||
|
|
||
| <!-- steps --> | ||
|
|
||
| ## Migrating existing PersistentVolumes | ||
|
|
||
| If you have existing PersistentVolumes, they can be migrated to use | ||
| `ReadWriteOncePod`. Only migrations from `ReadWriteOnce` to `ReadWriteOncePod` | ||
| are supported. | ||
|
|
||
| In this example, there is already a ReadWriteOnce "cat-pictures-pvc" | ||
| PersistentVolumeClaim that is bound to a "cat-pictures-pv" PersistentVolume, | ||
| and a "cat-pictures-writer" Deployment that uses this PersistentVolumeClaim. | ||
|
|
||
| {{< note >}} | ||
| If your storage plugin supports | ||
| [Dynamic provisioning](/docs/concepts/storage/dynamic-provisioning/), | ||
| the "cat-picutres-pv" will be created for you, but its name may differ. To get | ||
| your PersistentVolume's name run: | ||
|
|
||
| ```shell | ||
| kubectl get pvc cat-pictures-pvc -o jsonpath='{.spec.volumeName}' | ||
| ``` | ||
| {{< /note >}} | ||
|
|
||
| And you can view the PVC before you make changes. Either view the manifest | ||
| locally, or run `kubectl get pvc <name-of-pvc> -o yaml`. The output is similar | ||
| to: | ||
|
|
||
| ```yaml | ||
| # cat-pictures-pvc.yaml | ||
| kind: PersistentVolumeClaim | ||
| apiVersion: v1 | ||
| metadata: | ||
| name: cat-pictures-pvc | ||
| spec: | ||
| accessModes: | ||
| - ReadWriteOnce | ||
| resources: | ||
| requests: | ||
| storage: 1Gi | ||
| ``` | ||
| Here's an example Deployment that relies on that PersistentVolumeClaim: | ||
| ```yaml | ||
| # cat-pictures-writer-deployment.yaml | ||
| apiVersion: apps/v1 | ||
| kind: Deployment | ||
| metadata: | ||
| name: cat-pictures-writer | ||
| spec: | ||
| replicas: 3 | ||
| selector: | ||
| matchLabels: | ||
| app: cat-pictures-writer | ||
| template: | ||
| metadata: | ||
| labels: | ||
| app: cat-pictures-writer | ||
| spec: | ||
| containers: | ||
| - name: nginx | ||
| image: nginx:1.14.2 | ||
| ports: | ||
| - containerPort: 80 | ||
| volumeMounts: | ||
| - name: cat-pictures | ||
| mountPath: /mnt | ||
| volumes: | ||
| - name: cat-pictures | ||
| persistentVolumeClaim: | ||
| claimName: cat-pictures-pvc | ||
| readOnly: false | ||
| ``` | ||
| As a first step, you need to edit your PersistentVolume's | ||
| `spec.persistentVolumeReclaimPolicy` and set it to `Retain`. This ensures your | ||
| PersistentVolume will not be deleted when you delete the corresponding | ||
| PersistentVolumeClaim: | ||
|
|
||
| ```shell | ||
| kubectl patch pv cat-pictures-pv -p '{"spec":{"persistentVolumeReclaimPolicy":"Retain"}}' | ||
| ``` | ||
|
|
||
| Next you need to stop any workloads that are using the PersistentVolumeClaim | ||
| bound to the PersistentVolume you want to migrate, and then delete the | ||
| PersistentVolumeClaim. Avoid making any other changes to the | ||
| PersistentVolumeClaim, such as volume resizes, until after the migration is | ||
| complete. | ||
|
|
||
| Once that is done, you need to clear your PersistentVolume's `spec.claimRef.uid` | ||
| to ensure PersistentVolumeClaims can bind to it upon recreation: | ||
|
|
||
| ```shell | ||
| kubectl scale --replicas=0 deployment cat-pictures-writer | ||
| kubectl delete pvc cat-pictures-pvc | ||
| kubectl patch pv cat-pictures-pv -p '{"spec":{"claimRef":{"uid":""}}}' | ||
| ``` | ||
|
|
||
| After that, replace the PersistentVolume's list of valid access modes to be | ||
| (only) `ReadWriteOncePod`: | ||
|
|
||
| ```shell | ||
| kubectl patch pv cat-pictures-pv -p '{"spec":{"accessModes":["ReadWriteOncePod"]}}' | ||
| ``` | ||
|
|
||
| {{< note >}} | ||
| The `ReadWriteOncePod` access mode cannot be combined with other access modes. | ||
| Make sure `ReadWriteOncePod` is the only access mode on the PersistentVolume | ||
| when updating, otherwise the request will fail. | ||
| {{< /note >}} | ||
|
|
||
| Next you need to modify your PersistentVolumeClaim to set `ReadWriteOncePod` as | ||
| the only access mode. You should also set the PersistentVolumeClaim's | ||
| `spec.volumeName` to the name of your PersistentVolume to ensure it binds to | ||
| this specific PersistentVolume. | ||
|
|
||
| Once this is done, you can recreate your PersistentVolumeClaim and start up your | ||
| workloads: | ||
|
|
||
| ```shell | ||
| # IMPORTANT: Make sure to edit your PVC in cat-pictures-pvc.yaml before applying. You need to: | ||
| # - Set ReadWriteOncePod as the only access mode | ||
| # - Set spec.volumeName to "cat-pictures-pv" | ||
| kubectl apply -f cat-pictures-pvc.yaml | ||
| kubectl apply -f cat-pictures-writer-deployment.yaml | ||
| ``` | ||
|
|
||
| Lastly you may edit your PersistentVolume's `spec.persistentVolumeReclaimPolicy` | ||
| and set to it back to `Delete` if you previously changed it. | ||
|
|
||
| ```shell | ||
| kubectl patch pv cat-pictures-pv -p '{"spec":{"persistentVolumeReclaimPolicy":"Delete"}}' | ||
| ``` | ||
