Reviewing your KinD cluster

With a Kubernetes cluster now available, we have the ability to look at Kubernetes objects first-hand. This will help you understand the previous chapter, where we covered many of the base objects included in a Kubernetes cluster. In particular, we will discuss the storage objects that are included with your KinD cluster.

KinD storage objects

Remember that KinD includes Rancher's auto-provisioner to provide automated persistent disk management for the cluster. In Chapter 5, Kubernetes Bootcamp, we went over the storage-related objects, and now that we have a cluster with a storage system configured, we can explain them in greater detail.

There is one object that the auto-provisioner does not require since it uses a base Kubernetes feature: it does not require a CSIdriver. Since the ability to use local host paths as PVCs is part of Kubernetes, we will not see any CSIdriver objects in our KinD cluster.

The first objects in our KinD cluster...
