 - `MaxEBSVolumeCount`: Ensure that the number of attached ElasticBlockStore volumes does not exceed a maximum value (by default, 39, since Amazon recommends a maximum of 40 with one of those 40 reserved for the root volume -- see [Amazon's documentation](http://docs.aws.amazon.com/AWSEC2/latest/UserGuide/volume_limits.html#linux-specific-volume-limits)).  The maximum value can be controlled by setting the `KUBE_MAX_PD_VOLS` environment variable.
 - `MaxGCEPDVolumeCount`: Ensure that the number of attached GCE PersistentDisk volumes does not exceed a maximum value (by default, 16, which is the maximum GCE allows -- see [GCE's documentation](https://cloud.google.com/compute/docs/disks/persistent-disks#limits_for_predefined_machine_types)).  The maximum value can be controlled by setting the `KUBE_MAX_PD_VOLS` environment variable.
 - `CheckNodeMemoryPressure`: Check if a pod can be scheduled on a node reporting memory pressure condition. Currently, no ``BestEffort`` should be placed on a node under memory pressure as it gets automatically evicted by kubelet.
+- `CheckNodeDiskPressure`: Check if a pod can be scheduled on a node reporting disk pressure condition. Currently, no pods should be placed on a node under disk pressure as it gets automatically evicted by kubelet.
 
 The details of the above predicates can be found in [plugin/pkg/scheduler/algorithm/predicates/predicates.go](http://releases.k8s.io/HEAD/plugin/pkg/scheduler/algorithm/predicates/predicates.go). All predicates mentioned above can be used in combination to perform a sophisticated filtering policy. Kubernetes uses some, but not all, of these predicates by default. You can see which ones are used by default in [plugin/pkg/scheduler/algorithmprovider/defaults/defaults.go](http://releases.k8s.io/HEAD/plugin/pkg/scheduler/algorithmprovider/defaults/defaults.go).
