Overview
The Kubernetes persistent volume framework allows you to provision an OKD cluster with persistent storage using networked storage available in your environment. This can be done after completing the initial OKD installation depending on your application needs, giving users a way to request those resources without having any knowledge of the underlying infrastructure.
These topics show how to configure persistent volumes in OKD using the following supported volume plug-ins:
