Container Service for Kubernetes:Use CNFS to manage shared NAS volumes (recommended)

最終更新日:Oct 31, 2024

Container Service for Kubernetes (ACK) allows you to mount and use shared File Storage NAS (NAS) volumes that are managed by Container Network File System (CNFS). If you want to mount a directory in a NAS file system to multiple Kubernetes applications or pods, you can use CNFS to create a shared NAS volume. This solves the problem of sharing data among pods. This topic uses a StatefulSet as an example to describe how to use CNFS to manage shared NAS volumes.

Prerequisites

Step 1: Create a workload for a shared volume

  • Create a persistent volume (PV) named cnfs-nas-static-pv and reference a CNFS named cnfs-nas-filesystem in the PV. The name of the CNFS is the same as the NAS file system that you created.

  • Create a persistent volume claim (PVC) named cnfs-nas-static-pvc and bind the PV to the PVC.

  • Create a StatefulSet named cnfs-nas-static-sts, use a BusyBox image to mount the PVC, and write a temporary file named 1G.tmpfile (1 GB in size) to the mount target.

        volumeMounts:
        - mountPath: "/data"
          name: cnfs-nas-static-pvc
      volumes:
      - name: cnfs-nas-static-pvc
        persistentVolumeClaim:
          claimName: cnfs-nas-static-pvc # Reference the PVC named cnfs-nas-static-pvc. 
EOF

Step 2: View the mount result

Run the following command to view the mount result:

kubectl exec cnfs-nas-static-sts-0 -- mount |grep nfs

Expected output:

971134b0e8-****.cn-zhangjiakou.nas.aliyuncs.com:/ on /data type nfs (rw,nosuid,nodev,relatime,user_id=0,group_id=0,default_permissions,allow_other)

The output indicates that the volume is mounted.

Step 3: Check whether data is persisted to the volume

Run the following command to write a temporary file that is 1 GB in size to the directory:

kubectl exec cnfs-nas-static-sts-0 -ti -- sh -c 'dd if=/dev/zero of=/data/1G.tmpfile bs=1G count=1;'

Run the following command to check whether the temporary file is written to the directory:

kubectl exec cnfs-nas-static-sts-0 -- ls -arlth /data

Expected output:

total 1G
-rw-r--r--    1 root     root        1.0G Dec 15 12:11 1G.tmpfile

The output indicates that the 1G.tmpfile file is written to the /data directory.

Step 4: Check whether the data is shared with other pods

Run the following command to check whether the temporary file exists in the pod named cnfs-nas-static-sts-1:

kubectl exec cnfs-nas-static-sts-1 -- ls -arlth /data

Expected output:

total 1G
-rw-r--r--    1 root     root        1.0G Dec 15 12:11 1G.tmpfile

The output indicates that the 1G.tmpfile file exists in the pods named cnfs-nas-static-sts-0 and cnfs-nas-static-sts-1.

Note

If you write data to be shared to different pods, CNFS cannot ensure the consistency of the data shared among the pods. Do not overwrite a shared file in case the file is damaged.
