Hello

I would like to execute a Cronjob which mounts volumes from pods of a statefulset.  
To do this, i wrote this in the yaml :

- name: …  
displayName: …

The pb is that the “claimName” is a “fixed” string.  
Here “datadir-db-0” is the claim for the first pod of the statefulset (which has the label app=db)  
On the second pod of the statefulset, the second pod executed by the job will fail because “datadir-db-0” claim name does not exist.“datadir-db-1” claimname should be used instead.

How to mount the right persistent volume of the statfulset from each pods executed by the job ?

Regards.
