Host path¶

In order to mount a path from the node where the Pod is running you can use a hostPath type persistence item.

This can also be used to mount an attached USB device to a Pod. Note that this will most likely also require setting an elevated securityContext.

See the Kubernetes docs for more information.

Field	Mandatory	Docs / Description
`hostPath`	Yes	Which path on the host should be mounted.
`hostPathType`	No	Specifying a hostPathType adds a check before trying to mount the path. See Kubernetes documentation for options.

Minimal configuration¶

persistence:
  config:
    enabled: true
    type: hostPath
    hostPath: /dev

This will mount the /dev folder from the underlying host to /dev in the container.
