PVC From Snapshot #3966
Description
What would you like added?
I'd love to be able to create a PVC on demand from a snapshot for each runner that I build. We have a significant amount of data we cache in PVCs (100s of GB) and I'd love to be able to create PVC for each runner based on a snapshot with this data.
PVC can be created like so
apiVersion: v1
kind: PersistentVolumeClaim
metadata:
name: pvc-from-snapshot
spec:
accessModes:
- ReadWriteOnce
resources:
requests:
storage: 100Gi
dataSource:
name: dagger-2025-02-20
kind: VolumeSnapshot
apiGroup: snapshot.storage.k8s.io
so I'd hope for some CRD interface like
Note: Feature requests to integrate vendor specific cloud tools (e.g. awscli, gcloud-sdk, azure-cli) will likely be rejected as the Runner image aims to be vendor agnostic.

Why is this needed?
Moving 100s of GB on every build is cumbersome and takes lots of time. just restoring from a snapshot would be great.
