Hi, is it possible to assign a persistent storage volume to an already running ‘app’, using Rancher/k3s and Longhorn?

You want to avoid the downtime?

Does it work patching the deployment type of your “app” to give it a PVC?

And what deployment type is it even?

Hi, no, its just a test environment I am playing with

I am wondering if this is the correct place I can add it to smokeping ?

and I have a detached storage created in longhorn in the cluster

The UI in the first picture like Harvester. Is that correct?

no, I am not using harvester. That is just the rancher UI

aaah alright … looks the same … fair enough. Have you asked in the Rancher channel itself?

If this is possible? Through Rancher=

I guess the CSI option you have in the menu dropdown in the Rancher UI is for using whatever CSI driver is the default one on the cluster .. so if Longhorn then that’s used

But, whether the app actually uses it is another thing
