Thursday Morning Warmup!

Let's take some of the concepts we learned and apply them in some resources of your own creation!

1. Create the following file:

   student@bchd:~$ vim gameinfo.yml

   game: Super Mario Bros.
   publisher: Nintendo
   director: Shigeru Miyamoto
   release: September 13, 1985
   

2. Put gameinfo.yml inside a configmap named nintendo.

3. Create a PersistentVolume with the following parameters:

   • 2GB storage
   • name: persistentchallenge
   • storage class: manual
   • host path: /mnt/data

4. Create a PersistentVolumeClaim with the following parameters:

   • 1GB storage
   • name: persistentclaimchallenge
   • storage class: manual

5. Create a Pod with the following:

• name the Pod day4challenge
• give the Pod the label k8s: isawesome
• Use a nginx image
• Mount BOTH the PVC persistentclaimchallenge AND configmap nintendo.

The mountPath location is up to you, but the Pod status must be RUNNING to complete the challenge :)
