Does FT mode w/ a SQL store still require a ReadWriteMany filesystem?

[leefernandes]

The doc below mentions Fault Tolerant mode requiring a ReadWriteMany filesystem, my question is whether that requirement is for all storage types, or just when using a File store? Would using a SQL store still require a ReadWriteMany filesystem?

Thanks

https://docs.nats.io/nats-on-kubernetes/stan-ft-k8s-aws

"First, we need a Kubernetes cluster with a provider that offers a service with a ReadWriteMany filesystem available."

That guide is for when using FaultTolerance mode and file storage, you could use SQL storage as well with FaultTolerance.

Not sure if i understood your response @wallyqs, but basically if I use SQL storage i dont need to mount a ReadWriteMany filesystem?

I did some tests and STAN seems to be working fine without it. I even mounted it just in case and i see that nothing is written on it. I might be wrong since i didn't do some super extensive testing, just ran STAN and checked the storage volume which was empty (was getting filled with cluster mode by this point though).

If what i said above is true, should the docs linked below be edited not to say
# FT mode requires a single shared ReadWriteMany PVC volume.
if the volume is only required if using file storage option?
