Azure Kubernetes Service - Windows mountPath is not mounted on Azure File Share
Kubernetes - cannot have Windows path mounted on Azure File Share (Linux mounting works properly )
Firstly I successfully mounted, my Linux path on Pod. I used azure file share and mounted folders appear on File Share.
volumeMounts:
- name: ads-filesharevolume
mountPath: /opt/front/arena/host
volumes:
- name: ads-filesharevolume
azureFile:
secretName: fa-fileshare-secret
shareName: faselectaksshare
readOnly: false
Now in File Share I added one subfolder "windows" for mounting, in logs it mentions it is being mounted properly but I do not have anything mounted (folders and files do not appear on mounted share like it is the case for Linux) after I try to run my Pod (Containers)
args: [ "-license_file", "C:/Host/dat/license.dat",
"-key_file", "C:/Host/dat/license.key"]
volumeMounts:
- name: ads-win-filesharevolume
mountPath: "C:\\host"
volumes:
- name: ads-win-filesharevolume
azureFile:
secretName: fa-fileshare-secret
shareName: faselectaksshare\windows
readOnly: false
For mountPath I tried with many options: C:\\host and C:/host and /c/host
Also for shareName I initially tried with faselectaksshare/windows but it threw an exception.
So I defined it like this: faselectaksshare\windows
With describe pod I can see that everything is OK but I do not see my mounted folders and files in faselectaksshare\windows
Mounts:
/var/run/secrets/kubernetes.io/serviceaccount from default-token-nx49r (ro)
C:/host from ads-win-filesharevolume (rw)
Conditions:
Type Status
Initialized True
Ready False
ContainersReady False
PodScheduled True
Volumes:
ads-win-filesharevolume:
Type: AzureFile (an Azure File Service mount on the host and bind mount to the pod)
SecretName: fa-fileshare-secret
ShareName: faselectaksshare\windows
ReadOnly: false
Please help! Thanks
