System Docker Volumes

A few services are containers in created state. Their purpose is to provide volumes for other services.

user-volumes

Provides user accessible persistent storage directories, used by console service:

/home
/opt
/var/lib/kubelet - Added as of v1.2

Available as of v1.2

If you want to change user-volumes, for example, add /etc/kubernetes directory:

$ sudo ros config set rancher.services.user-volumes.volumes  [/home:/home,/opt:/opt,/var/lib/kubelet:/var/lib/kubelet,/etc/kubernetes:/etc/kubernetes]
$ sudo reboot

Please note that after the restart, the new persistence directory can take effect.

Provides docker storage directory, used by console service (and, indirectly, by docker)

/var/lib/docker
