We can resize the volume by updating the PVC yaml to the desired size and apply it. The ZFS Driver will take care of updating the quota in case of dataset. If we are using a Zvol and have mounted it as ext2/3/4 or xfs file system, the driver will take care of expanding the volume via reize2fs/xfs_growfs binaries.
For resize, storageclass that provisions the pvc must support resize. We should have allowVolumeExpansion as true in storageclass
Note: btrfs does not support online volume resize, so we can not resize the btrfs volumes.
$ cat sc.yaml
apiVersion: storage.k8s.io/v1
kind: StorageClass
metadata:
name: openebs-zfspv
allowVolumeExpansion: true
parameters:
poolname: "zfspv-pool"
provisioner: zfs.csi.openebs.io
$ kubectl apply -f sc.yaml
storageclass.storage.k8s.io/openebs-zfspv created
Create the PVC using the above storage class
$ cat pvc.yaml
kind: PersistentVolumeClaim
apiVersion: v1
metadata:
name: csi-zfspv
spec:
storageClassName: openebs-zfspv
accessModes:
- ReadWriteOnce
resources:

storage: 4Gi
$ kubectl apply -f pvc.yaml
persistentvolumeclaim/csi-zfspv created
OpenEBS ZFS driver supports Online Volume expansion, which means that we can expand the volume even if volume is being used by the application and we also don't need to restart the application to use the expanded volume, the ZFS Driver will take care of making the space availbale to it. Please note that file system expansion does not happen until a Application pod references the resized volume, so if no pods referencing the volume are running, file system expansion will not happen.
Deploy the application using the PVC. Here is sample yaml for the application :
$ cat fio.yaml
apiVersion: apps/v1
kind: Deployment
metadata:
name: fio

name: fio
spec:
replicas: 1

volumeMounts:
- mountPath: /datadir

persistentVolumeClaim:

$ kubectl apply -f fio.yaml
deployment.apps/fio created
$ kubectl get po

$ kubectl get pvc

Exec into the application pod and check the size
# df -h /datadir/
Filesystem Size Used Available Use% Mounted on
/dev/zd0 3.9G 16.0M 3.8G 0% /datadir
Deploy the application using the PVC which supports volume expansion. Once the application pod is deployed, we will expand the PVC to 5Gi from 4Gi. Just edit the PVC yaml and update the size to 5Gi and apply it :-
$ cat pvc.yaml
kind: PersistentVolumeClaim
apiVersion: v1
metadata:
name: csi-zfspv
spec:
storageClassName: openebs-zfspv
accessModes:
- ReadWriteOnce
resources:
requests:
storage: 5Gi
Apply the above yaml which will resize the volume
$ kubectl apply -f pvc.yaml
persistentvolumeclaim/csi-zfspv configured
Check the PVC yaml
$ kubectl get pvc csi-zfspv -oyaml
apiVersion: v1
kind: PersistentVolumeClaim

Here you see in the message that it is waiting on FileSystemResizePending. The resize request will go to the node where appliccation pod is running. The ZFS driver node agent will resize the filesytem for the application. Keep checking the PVC yaml for FileSystemResizePending to go away, once PVC is resized, the yaml will look like this :-
$ kubectl get pvc csi-zfspv -oyaml

Also, we can exec into the application pod and verify the same :-
# df -h /datadir/
Filesystem Size Used Available Use% Mounted on
/dev/zd0 4.9G 16.0M 4.8G 0% /datadir
As we can see the volume mount point /datadir is showing that it has been resized.
