.spec Elements

.spec.selector

.spec.selector.matchLabels

The labels declared in this section must exist also in the .spec.template.metadata.labels section, and have the same corresponding values, otherwise the StatefulSet deployment will fail with "spec.template.metadata.labels: Invalid value: [...]: 'selector' does not match template 'labels'". Note that the .spec.template.metadata.labels section may declare additional labels.

volumeClaimTemplates

volumeClaimTemplates is a list of persistent volume claim specifications, defining persistent volume claims that pods are allowed to reference. The StatefulSet controller is responsible for mapping network identities to claims in a way that maintains the identity of a pod. Every claim in this list must have at least one name-matching volumeMount in one container in the template. The name of the claim is specified as .metadata.name.A claim in this list takes precedence over any volumes in the template, with the same name.
