06/01/2023, 5:16 PMCool, that helps.
As I was experimenting the last couple of days, I found a couple of issues:
• When the server/node is restarted, the containerd state directory(/run/k3s) gets deleted. I guess this happens because when containerd stops, it perhaps deletes /run/k3s?
• The k3s uninstall script has hard-coded paths for both /run/k3s and /var/lib/rancher. Due to this, there are two issues:
• The unmount doesn't happen as the /proc/self/mounts seems to have the new symlinked path and not the original /run/k3s
• Data in both /run/k3s and /var/lib/rancher is not deleted, instead the symlink gets deleted which is expected as we've created a symlink for these

06/01/2023, 5:18 PMAny suggestions for the above issues would help..

06/01/2023, 5:22 PMFor the last 2 issues, we are thinking of handling this separately for now.

06/01/2023, 5:24 PMIf you could add your suggestions for the 1st and even for the others, that would be great.

06/01/2023, 6:20 PMWhen the server/node is restarted, the containerd state directory(/run/k3s) gets deleted./run is a tmpfs mount on most distros; things created there are ephemeral and don’t persist across reboots. I’m curious why you’re trying to move things off it at all.

06/02/2023, 1:36 PMWe've had customers who didn't have sufficient space on /var/lib and didn't want to increase it either. I assumed the same could be the case for /run as well. But as I now realise, that it uses tmpfs I guess this shldnt be a problem. Btw, is it a requirement for /run to be a tmpfs on most distros or is that something that can be configured?

06/02/2023, 1:40 PMIf we ignore /run, I guess we can just go with the --data-dir option and wouldn't need to do any symlinks at all if I'm right?

Apart from this, I see there is /var/lib/cni. Is there any option to change the path of this?
