You could access the volume in the 
/var/lib/kubelet/pods/8230ce89-2723-432d-8a3c-35431ea7342c/volumes/kubernetes.io~csi/media-store/mount
but just curious about why do you want to do this?

Thanks James. I needed to create a couple of directories and add a config file. Is there a better way I should do thi? I’m beginner

Is it a container app or Kubevirt VM using the LongHorn storage? Generally, the pattern is to compose the image for your container or VM from source and redeploy, not customize the running image. This is the basis for the name "Rancher." The analogy is wrangling cattle, which are replaceable, not pets, which are irreplaceable. A little morbid, but you get the idea. 😜 Figure out how to compose your container or VM image from source, then you can easily modify the image and redeploy it many, many times. If you're composing a container image, you can use 
docker build
, and if you're building VM images you can use 
packer build
. In fact, you can use Packer to build container images too. It's versatile like that.

thanks for the info. Its a container I am pulling from github. I’m rather new and just learning at this stage but I take when you say and it makes sense!
r
If you found the source of the image in GitHub then you're half-way to your destination. You probably have a 
Dockerfile
that you can customize then run 
docker build -t myContainerImage .
in the same directory. If you're using #rancher-desktop with the same container runtime as Docker, then you I believe you can deploy your new image immediately in the K3s Kubernetes cluster running in #rancher-desktop, e.g. 
kubectl run --stdin --tty --rm myContainerImage --image=<http://docker.io/library/myContainerImage|docker.io/library/myContainerImage> --restart=Never -- sh
, or a more useful container command than 
sh
.
On my computer, there are two container runtimes available: containerd and Moby. The runtime I've selected in Rancher Desktop determines which build command I need to run to use the container image in K3s running in Rancher Desktop. containerd needs 
nerdctl build
, and Moby needs 
docker build
.
I forgot to mention you need to append 
--image-pull-policy=Never
to your 
run
command to prevent K3s from trying to download the image from Docker Hub. That will force it to try to load the image from your local build cache. Here are the instructions: https://docs.rancherdesktop.io/tutorials/working-with-images/

Copy code
### media.sonarr.values.yml
replicaCount: 1

image:
  repository: linuxserver/sonarr
  tag: arm32v7-latest # ARM image
  pullPolicy: IfNotPresent

env:
  - name: PUID
    value: "1000"
  - name: PGID
    value: "1000"

service:
  type: ClusterIP
  port: 80

volumes:
  - name: media-ssd
    persistentVolumeClaim:
      claimName: "media-ssd" # PersistentVolumeClaim created earlier

volumeMounts:
  - name: media-ssd
    mountPath: "/config"
    subPath: "configs/sonarr" # Path /mnt/ssd/media/configs/sonarr where sonarr writes the configuration
  - name: media-ssd
    mountPath: "/downloads/transmission"
    subPath: "downloads/transmission" # Path /mnt/ssd/media/downloads/transmission where sonarr picks up downloaded episodes
  - name: media-ssd
    mountPath: "/tv"
    subPath: "library/tv" # Path /mnt/ssd/media/library/tv where sonarr moves and renames the episodes
So those are the directories I require. But they don’t seem to be setup when I install the package with helm. I get an error likie:-
