hostPath represents a directory on the host. Provisioned by a developer or tester. This is useful for single-node development and testing only! On-host storage is not supported in any way and WILL NOT WORK in a multi-node cluster. More info: https://kubernetes.io/docs/concepts/storage/volumes#hostpath

iscsi represents an ISCSI Disk resource that is attached to a kubelet's host machine and then exposed to the pod. Provisioned by an admin.

local represents directly-attached storage with node affinity

mountOptions is the list of mount options, e.g. ["ro", "soft"]. Not validated - mount will simply fail if one is invalid. More info: https://kubernetes.io/docs/concepts/storage/persistent-volumes/#mount-options

nfs represents an NFS mount on the host. Provisioned by an admin. More info: https://kubernetes.io/docs/concepts/storage/volumes#nfs

nodeAffinity defines constraints that limit what nodes this volume can be accessed from. This field influences the scheduling of pods that use this volume.

persistentVolumeReclaimPolicy defines what happens to a persistent volume when released from its claim. Valid options are Retain (default for manually created PersistentVolumes), Delete (default for dynamically provisioned PersistentVolumes), and Recycle (deprecated). Recycle must be supported by the volume plugin underlying this PersistentVolume. More info: https://kubernetes.io/docs/concepts/storage/persistent-volumes#reclaiming

photonPersistentDisk represents a PhotonController persistent disk attached and mounted on kubelets host machine. Deprecated: PhotonPersistentDisk is deprecated and the in-tree photonPersistentDisk type is no longer supported.

portworxVolume represents a portworx volume attached and mounted on kubelets host machine. Deprecated: PortworxVolume is deprecated. All operations for the in-tree portworxVolume type are redirected to the pxd.portworx.com CSI driver when the CSIMigrationPortworx feature-gate is on.

rbd represents a Rados Block Device mount on the host that shares a pod's lifetime. Deprecated: RBD is deprecated and the in-tree rbd type is no longer supported. More info: https://examples.k8s.io/volumes/rbd/README.md

scaleIO represents a ScaleIO persistent volume attached and mounted on Kubernetes nodes. Deprecated: ScaleIO is deprecated and the in-tree scaleIO type is no longer supported.

storageClassName is the name of StorageClass to which this persistent volume belongs. Empty value means that this volume does not belong to any StorageClass.

Name of VolumeAttributesClass to which this persistent volume belongs. Empty value is not allowed. When this field is not set, it indicates that this volume does not belong to any VolumeAttributesClass. This field is mutable and can be changed by the CSI driver after a volume has been updated successfully to a new class. For an unbound PersistentVolume, the volumeAttributesClassName will be matched with unbound PersistentVolumeClaims during the binding process.

volumeMode defines if a volume is intended to be used with a formatted filesystem or to remain in raw block state. Value of Filesystem is implied when not included in spec.
