Hi Vikram,

Would you please provide examples (pvc.yaml) for users to have correct understanding, as well as existing pv.yaml ?

I am grateful for your help.

Thank you,

Hello,

Could you please provide a news on this ?

On this BZ, the customer request adding an example of pvc.yaml with volumeName, as well as adding volumeName to pv.yaml for Statically provisioning section [0]. 

   [0] https://docs.openshift.com/container-platform/4.4/storage/persistent_storage/persistent-storage-vsphere.html#vsphere-static-provisioning_persistent-storage-efs

Because, as we have an example of pvc.yaml for Dynamically provisioning section [1] and that's all what we need, but example of pvc.yaml is missing at Statically provisioning [0] . Because both of pvc.yaml and pv.yaml is required for Statically provisioning. That's confusable for customer to know what are needed for Statically provisioning.

    [1] https://docs.openshift.com/container-platform/4.4/storage/persistent_storage/persistent-storage-vsphere.html#vsphere-dynamic-provisioning-cli_persistent-storage-efs

I am grateful for your help.

Thank you,

BR,
Masaki
