Could you supply the output of `oc get pod <name of recycler pod> -o yaml`?  It looks like the recycler pod was matched against an SCC that didn't allow use of uid 0 or the nfs volume plugin.

This error is from pv after the pod and pvc is deleted, and should wait 1 hour after re-create the pvc.
The pod I created is like below:

Yes, I think so, the pv recycler pod wasn't created because SCC constrained it. I tried to work around this issue by updating restricted SCC, then the issue disappeared. My updated SCC was:

```
runAsUser:
  type: RunAsAny
seLinuxContext:
  type: RunAsAny
supplementalGroups:
  type: RunAsAny
volumes:
- configMap
- downwardAPI
- emptyDir
- hostPath
- nfs
- persistentVolumeClaim
- secret
```

Can this bug be closed then or is there still an outstanding issue ?

I'm wondering which serviceaccount the recycler pod was being run under.

Can you repeat this test with --loglevel=4 and post the API server log?

We are looking for a message like 'getting security context constraints for pod'.

Here is the information I search from docker logs:
I0408 02:31:12.495997    2597 admission.go:109] getting security context constraints for pod  (generate: pv-recycler-nfs-) in namespace openshift-infra with user info &{system:serviceaccount:openshift-infra:pv-recycler-controller 5e78dce3-fd2c-11e5-ae17-6c0b849ad3e9 [system:serviceaccounts system:serviceaccounts:openshift-infra system:authenticated]}

Tried to re-pull the latest image and test, still repro

The problem is that the hostmount-anyuid SCC, which the PV recycler controller service account is supposed to use, doesn't have access to the nfs plugin:

From the controller manager log:

The problem is that the `hostmount-anyuid` SCC that the PV recycler is supposed to use doesn't have permission to use the NFS plugin:
