rune volume

Inspect persistent volumes — list, get, delete, detach, retry-provision, restore from snapshot. (Volumes are created via `rune cast`.)

rune volume <subcommand> [flags]
rune vol    <subcommand> [flags]    # short alias

A Volume is a namespaced unit of durable storage backed by a driver. See the storage concept for the lifecycle and how services consume them via claim / claimTemplate.

Subcommands

Command	Purpose
`rune volume list`	List volumes in a namespace.
`rune volume get <name>`	Show one volume's full status.
`rune volume delete <name>`	Delete the row; reclaim policy decides the rest.
`rune volume detach <name>`	Clear `Bound` state so a replacement can attach.
`rune volume retry-provision <name>`	Re-drive a `Failed`/`Stalled` volume back to `Pending`.
`rune volume restore <name>`	Provision a new volume from a snapshot.

Examples

# List in current namespace
rune volume list
 
# Across all namespaces
rune vol list -A
 
# Show one
rune volume get pgdata-postgres-0 -n prod -o yaml
 
# Apply from a spec — Volumes are created via `rune cast`, the same
# declarative path used for every other resource.
rune cast web-data.yaml
 
# Delete (reclaim policy applies — see storage concept)
rune volume delete web-data
 
# Volume stuck Bound after the instance vanished — break the bind
rune volume detach pgdata-postgres-1 -n prod
 
# Provisioning failed — fix the underlying problem, then re-drive
rune volume retry-provision pgdata-postgres-1 -n prod
 
# Restore from a snapshot into a new volume row
rune volume restore web-data-restored \
  --from-snapshot web-data-2025-11-15 \
  --snapshot-namespace prod \
  --storage-class local \
  -n prod

`web-data.yaml`

volume:
  name: web-data
  namespace: default
  storageClassName: local
  size: 5Gi
  accessMode: ReadWriteOnce
  reclaimPolicy: retain

For local-host, declare the host path on the volume itself:

volume:
  name: shared-cache
  namespace: default
  storageClassName: local-host
  size: 0           # informational — not enforced for hostPath
  accessMode: ReadWriteOnce
  parameters:
    hostPath: /mnt/rune/shared-cache

The path must sit under one of runefile.[storage].hostPathAllowlist, and must already exist unless [storage] allowCreateMissing = true.
