Enabling dynamically-provisioned storage

Instead of statically-provisioned storage, you can use dynamically-provisioned storage.

Procedure

1. To enable dynamic storage for Prometheus and Alertmanager, set the following parameters to true in the Ansible inventory file:

   • openshift_cluster_monitoring_operator_prometheus_storage_enabled (Default: false)

   • openshift_cluster_monitoring_operator_alertmanager_storage_enabled (Default: false)

2. Optional: After you enable dynamic storage, you can also set the storageclass for the persistent volume claim for each component in the following parameters in the Ansible inventory file:

   • openshift_cluster_monitoring_operator_prometheus_storage_class_name (default: "")

   • openshift_cluster_monitoring_operator_alertmanager_storage_class_name (default: "")

     Each of these variables applies only if its corresponding storage_enabled variable is set to true.
