I want to create a directory with the pod name, not the PV name, in the SMB directory when doing dynamic provisioning.

apiVersion: storage.k8s.io/v1 kind: StorageClass metadata: name: smb-csi provisioner: smb.csi.k8s.io parameters: source: "//192.168.10.110/EVDang-DATABASE" csi.storage.k8s.io/node-stage-secret-name: "evdang-smb-secret" csi.storage.k8s.io/node-stage-secret-namespace: "sample-service" csi.storage.k8s.io/provisioner-secret-name: "evdang-smb-secret" csi.storage.k8s.io/provisioner-secret-namespace: "sample-service" reclaimPolicy: Retain volumeBindingMode: WaitForFirstConsumer

`apiVersion: apps/v1
kind: StatefulSet
metadata:
name: nginx
spec:
serviceName: "nginx"
replicas: 3
selector:
matchLabels:
app: nginx
template:

spec:
containers:

image: nginx:latest
volumeMounts:

mountPath: /mnt/smb
volumeClaimTemplates:

• metadata:
  name: smb-vol
  spec:
  accessModes: ["ReadWriteMany"]
  storageClassName: "smb-csi"
  resources:
  requests:
  storage: 1Gi`

Currently, when using the setup mentioned above, the SMB directory is created with the PV name (e.g., pvc-xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx) by default. What I want is for the directory to be created with the pod name (e.g., nginx-01).

Is that possible?

unfortunately that's not supported by the external-provisioner sidecar container, the supported subDir naming is as following:

• if subDir value contains following string, it would be converted into corresponding pv/pvc name or namespace

${pvc.metadata.name}
${pvc.metadata.namespace}
${pv.metadata.name}
