Good day all Just a quick question to the Pure team
Good day all Just a quick question to the Pure team & community. We have a customer utilising VMware's https://tanzu.vmware.com/tanzu|Tanzu for their K8s workloads. They have asked the question about backup/recovery options for those workloads. We were wondering if anyone has done some leg work already regarding delivering the PFA's snap/restore capabilities & integration into Tanzu/K8s clusters? In terms of backups, they wish to use Commvault for their backup orchestration. So we could more than likely leverage intellisnap for full VM level backups (but it does not necessarily answer the Tanzu/cluster re-integration question (at least, not that I am aware of (very happy to be incorrect about that))). Any thoughts/direction would be greatly appreciated.Cloud Native Summer Series: Exploring the Landscape

Are your cool friends all running databases in containers? Well its not about being trendy, it's about consistency and velocity. Running databases as a containers allows you to: Use the same tooling as your application stack Use declarative configurations through GitOps Use the same platform to provide networking, storage, and scaling - hint: Its Kubernetes Use identical platform APIs everywhere Enjoy faster startup and shutdown procedures Provide Fine-grained control over CPU and memory, not wasted on operating systems Less patching OK, thats as much of a pitch as you'll get from me. VMs are a tried and true method for running your databases, but it might be worth testing out DBs in containers if you're a Kubernetes shop. You might find some additional efficiencies.
I'm trying to redeploy a workload
I'm trying to redeploy a workload. When the pod is trying to spin up i'm getting this error: ``` MountVolume.SetUp failed for volume "pvc-af2b1e0f-2732-4c13-ac9f-a8b8332069a0" : rpc error: code = AlreadyExists desc = Volume is attached on another node ``` I thought PX was supposed to move the volumes to where the nodes are, or to schedule the pods to be run where the volume is? this volume has a repl of 2.
