Question

A public-health team has an existing NFS export and wants static provisioning. What is the correct workflow?

Accepted Answer

An administrator defines a PersistentVolume for the NFS export, then a PVC binds to that PV. — Static provisioning means you hand-build the PV for storage that already exists, then let the PVC grab that prepared volume—like listing a house before someone rents it.

Answer

Create only a StorageClass with no provisioner; PVCs invent NFS servers automatically.

Answer

Create the PVC first in any namespace; Kubernetes creates the NFS export on the master.

Answer

Annotate any emptyDir volume with nfs.server; a PV is optional.
