Habr<p>Persistent Storage для Kubernetes на базе Linstor</p><p>Многие начинающие DevOps'ы, осваивающие kubernetes сталкиваются с вопросом: "Как организовать Persistent Storage в своём kubernetes-кластере?" Для этой цели есть много вариантов: ceph, nfs, mayastor, iscsi, linstor, longhorn. Сегодня мы рассмотрим один из них - linstor (он же piraeus). Мы настроим свой Persistent Storage и подключим его к нашему kubernetes-кластеру.</p><p><a href="https://habr.com/ru/articles/847568/" rel="nofollow noopener" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="">habr.com/ru/articles/847568/</span><span class="invisible"></span></a></p><p><a href="https://zhub.link/tags/redos" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>redos</span></a> <a href="https://zhub.link/tags/kubernetes" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>kubernetes</span></a> <a href="https://zhub.link/tags/linstor" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>linstor</span></a> <a href="https://zhub.link/tags/persistentStorage" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>persistentStorage</span></a> <a href="https://zhub.link/tags/persistentvolumeclaim" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>persistentvolumeclaim</span></a> <a href="https://zhub.link/tags/persistentvolume" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>persistentvolume</span></a></p>

One thing that kinda pisses me off about @tails is that it's #PersistentStorage - which is just a fancy name for #LUKS encryption - is absurdly restrictive and the #setup doesn't even want to work.

Like yes there's a reason I'm booting the #ISO via #Ventoy [ ventoy.net/en/index.html ] and yes I want to use the vacantly kept 8GiB at the end of the flashdrive to be useable as for persistent storage and no, I need that drive to be as is since it's a #multiboot drive designed to be easily updated.

www.ventoy.netVentoyVentoy is an open source tool to create bootable USB drive for ISO files. With ventoy, you don't need to format the disk again and again, you just need to copy the iso file to the USB drive and boot it.
