Introduction

This charts installs custom storage class into a Kubernetes cluster using the Helm package manager. It also installs a NFS client provisioner into the cluster which dynamically creates persistent volumes from single NFS share.

Prerequisites

Kubernetes 1.9+
Existing NFS Share

Installing the Chart

To install the chart with the release name my-release:

console

$ helm install --name my-release --set nfs.server=x.x.x.x --set nfs.path=/exported/path stable/nfs-client-provisioner

The command deploys the given storage class in the default configuration. It can be used afterswards to provision persistent volumes. The configuration section lists the parameters that can be configured during installation.

Tip: List all releases using helm list

Uninstalling the Chart

To uninstall/delete the my-release deployment:

console

$ helm delete my-release

The command removes all the Kubernetes components associated with the chart and deletes the release.
