## storage-provisioner-gluster addon
[Gluster](https://gluster.org/), a scalable network filesystem that provides dynamic provisioning of PersistentVolumeClaims.
### Starting Minikube
This addon works within Minikube, without any additional configuration.
```shell
$ minikube start
```
### Enabling storage-provisioner-gluster
To enable this addon, simply run:
```
$ minikube addons enable storage-provisioner-gluster
```
Within one minute, the addon manager should pick up the change and you should see several Pods in the `storage-gluster` namespace:
```
$ kubectl -n storage-gluster get pods
NAME READY STATUS RESTARTS AGE
glusterfile-provisioner-dbcbf54fc-726vv 1/1 Running 0 1m
glusterfs-rvdmz 0/1 Running 0 40s
heketi-79997b9d85-42c49 0/1 ContainerCreating 0 40s
```
Some of the Pods need a little more time to get up an running than others, but in a few minutes everything should have been deployed and all Pods should be `READY`:
```
$ kubectl -n storage-gluster get pods
NAME READY STATUS RESTARTS AGE
glusterfile-provisioner-dbcbf54fc-726vv 1/1 Running 0 5m
glusterfs-rvdmz 1/1 Running 0 4m
heketi-79997b9d85-42c49 1/1 Running 1 4m
```
Once the Pods have status `Running`, the `glusterfile` StorageClass should have been marked as `default`:
```
$ kubectl get sc
NAME PROVISIONER AGE
glusterfile (default) gluster.org/glusterfile 3m
```
### Creating PVCs
The storage in the Gluster environment is limited to 10 GiB. This is because the data is stored in the Minikube VM (a sparse file `/srv/fake-disk.img`).
The following `yaml` creates a PVC, starts a CentOS developer Pod that generates a website and deploys an NGINX webserver that provides access to the website:
```
---
#
# Minimal PVC where a developer can build a website.
#
kind: PersistentVolumeClaim
apiVersion: v1
metadata:
name: website
spec:
accessModes:
- ReadWriteMany
resources:
requests:
storage: 2Mi
storageClassName: glusterfile
---
#
# This pod will just download a fortune phrase and store it (as plain text) in
# index.html on the PVC. This is how we create websites?
#
# The root of the website stored on the above PVC is mounted on /mnt.
#
apiVersion: v1
kind: Pod
metadata:
name: centos-webdev
spec:
containers:
- image: centos:latest
name: centos
args:
- curl
- -o/mnt/index.html
- https://api.ef.gy/fortune
volumeMounts:
- mountPath: /mnt
name: website
# once the website is created, the pod will exit
restartPolicy: Never
volumes:
- name: website
persistentVolumeClaim:
claimName: website
---
#
# Start a NGINX webserver with the website.
# We'll skip creating a service, to keep things minimal.
#
apiVersion: v1
kind: Pod
metadata:
name: website-nginx
spec:
containers:
- image: gcr.io/google_containers/nginx-slim:0.8
name: nginx
ports:
- containerPort: 80
name: web
volumeMounts:
- mountPath: /usr/share/nginx/html
name: website
volumes:
- name: website
persistentVolumeClaim:
claimName: website
```
Because the PVC has been created with the `ReadWriteMany` accessMode, both Pods can access the PVC at the same time. Other website developer Pods can use the same PVC to update the contents of the site.
The above configuration does not expose the website on the Minikube VM. One way to see the contents of the website is to SSH into the Minikube VM and fetch the website there:
```
$ kubectl get pods -o wide
NAME READY STATUS RESTARTS AGE IP NODE
centos-webdev 0/1 Completed 0 1m 172.17.0.9 minikube
website-nginx 1/1 Running 0 24s 172.17.0.9 minikube
$ minikube ssh
