File Storage NAS:Usage notes

Last Updated:Apr 07, 2025

This topic describes the information that you must take note of when you use File Storage NAS (NAS) volumes in ACK Serverless (ASK) clusters.

  • NAS is a shared storage service. A persistent volume claim (PVC) that is used to mount a NAS file system can be used by multiple pods.

  • Do not delete the mount target before you unmount the NAS file system. Otherwise, an operating system hang issue may occur.

  • After a mount target is created, wait until its status changes to Available and then use the volume.

  • We recommend that you use the NFSv3 file sharing protocol.

  • General-purpose and Extreme NAS file systems have different limits on mounting scenarios, the number of file systems, and file sharing protocols. For more information, see Limits.

  • After you delete a persistent volume (PV) of the subpath type in an ACK Serverless cluster, the subdirectory is not deleted. This means that even if the reclaimPolicy of a PV is set to Delete and the PV is deleted, the corresponding directory in the NAS file system is not deleted. You need to manually mount the subdirectory and delete it.
