I'm using the below manifest to deploy postgresql on kubernetes within NFS persistent volume:
apiVersion: v1
kind: PersistentVolume
metadata:

The pg data can be mounted to nfs server (/nfsfileshare/postgres *(rw,async,no_subtree_check,no_root_squash)):

However the container is stuck with below log:
The files belonging to this database system will be owned by user "postgres". This user must also own the server process.
The database cluster will be initialized with locale "en_US.utf8". The default database encoding has accordingly been set to "UTF8". The default text search configuration will be set to "english".
Data page checksums are disabled.
fixing permissions on existing directory /var/lib/postgresql/data/pgdata ... ok creating subdirectories ... ok selecting default max_connections ... 100 selecting default shared_buffers ... 128MB selecting dynamic shared memory implementation ... posix creating configuration files ... ok running bootstrap script ... ok
Seems it stuck on post-bootstrap initialization.
It works only if I do not use nfs volume (works by using hostPath volume), why is that?
回答1:
NFS does not support fsync kernel vfs call which is required transaction logs for ensuring the writing out the redo logs on the disk. So you should use block storage when you need to use RDBMS, such as PostgreSQL and MySQL. You might lose the data consistency althogh you can run the one on the NFS.
回答2:
I meet the same question, When I use helm deploy the gitlab, the postgresql can't run, and errors below:
FATAL: data directory "/var/lib/postgresql/data/pgdata" has wrong ownership.
HINT: The server must be started by the user that owns the data directory.
I think it's because the postgresql run property need it's data should be own by user postgres and group postgres, but the nfs change the own user and group, makes the postgresql can't run.
Maybe change another tools like glusterfs can solve this problem, or try mysql's data mount by nfs.
