This topic describes the binding relationships between PVCs and PVs.

Binding relationship

PVCs and PVs are in one-to-one correspondence. One PV can be bound only to one PVC. When you configure storage for an application, you must configure a PVC. Kubernetes selects a PV that meets the PVC requirement through the best match and binds the PV to the PVC.

VolumeMode specifies whether the volume is a filesystem or a block. A PV can be bound to a PVC only when their volume modes are the same. For more information, see the following table.
