Deploying Postgres database on azure Container Instance?

问题

I am trying to deploy PostgresDatabase on azure container instance. To deploy on docker using bind mount(since Azure container Instance only support bind mount) i am using the below command, and it is deployed on docker. docker run -d -p 5434:5432 --name some-postgres -e POSTGRES_PASSWORD=mysecretpassword -e PGDATA=/var/lib/postgresql/data/pgdata -v /home/ubuntu/volum:/var/lib/postgresql/data postgres

If i do something similar for deploying on Azure container Instance

az container create \
    --resource-group $ACI_PERS_RESOURCE_GROUP \
    --name postgreariesdb25-1 \
    --location eastus \
    --image postgres \
    --dns-name-label $ACI_DNS_LABEL \
    --environment-variables POSTGRES_PASSWORD=mysecretpassword PGDATA=/var/lib/postgresql/data/pgdata  \
    --ports 5432  \
    --azure-file-volume-account-name $ACI_PERS_STORAGE_ACCOUNT_NAME \
    --azure-file-volume-account-key $STORAGE_KEY \
    --azure-file-volume-share-name $ACI_PERS_SHARE_NAME \
    --azure-file-volume-mount-path /var/lib/postgresql/data

I am getting the below message inside logs of Azure Container

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".

Volume Mount is required to have data in case of container restart.

This is a known error for mounting Azure File Share to Azure Container Instance. Currently, it does not support to change the ownership of the mount point. If you do not want to use other services, then you need to create a script to move the data to the mount point and the mount point should be a new folder that does not exist in the image. For you, the mount point /var/lib/postgresql/data exists in the image and contains the files that Postgresql depends on, then this point cannot be the mount point.
