# How To Use Persistent Volumes
This guide assumes knowledge of Kubernetes fundamentals and that a user has a cluster up and running.
## Create volumes
Persistent Volumes are intended for "network volumes", such as GCE Persistent Disks, NFS shares, and AWS EBS volumes.
The `HostPath` VolumeSource was included in the Persistent Volumes implementation for ease of testing.
Create persistent volumes by posting them to the API server:
```
cluster/kubectl.sh create -f examples/persistent-volumes/volumes/local-01.yaml
cluster/kubectl.sh create -f examples/persistent-volumes/volumes/local-02.yaml
cluster/kubectl.sh get pv
NAME LABELS CAPACITY ACCESSMODES STATUS CLAIM
pv0001 map[] 10737418240 RWO
pv0002 map[] 5368709120 RWO
In the log:
I0302 10:20:45.663225 1920 persistent_volume_manager.go:115] Managing PersistentVolume[UID=b16e91d6-c0ef-11e4-8be4-80e6500a981e]
I0302 10:20:55.667945 1920 persistent_volume_manager.go:115] Managing PersistentVolume[UID=b41f4f0e-c0ef-11e4-8be4-80e6500a981e]
```
## Create claims
You must be in a namespace to create claims.
```
cluster/kubectl.sh create -f examples/persistent-volumes/claims/claim-01.yaml
cluster/kubectl.sh create -f examples/persistent-volumes/claims/claim-02.yaml
NAME LABELS STATUS VOLUME
myclaim-1 map[]
myclaim-2 map[]
```
## Matching and binding
```
PersistentVolumeClaim[UID=f4b3d283-c0ef-11e4-8be4-80e6500a981e] bound to PersistentVolume[UID=b16e91d6-c0ef-11e4-8be4-80e6500a981e]
cluster/kubectl.sh get pv
NAME LABELS CAPACITY ACCESSMODES STATUS CLAIM
pv0001 map[] 10737418240 RWO myclaim-1 / f4b3d283-c0ef-11e4-8be4-80e6500a981e
pv0002 map[] 5368709120 RWO myclaim-2 / f70da891-c0ef-11e4-8be4-80e6500a981e
cluster/kubectl.sh get pvc
NAME LABELS STATUS VOLUME
myclaim-1 map[] b16e91d6-c0ef-11e4-8be4-80e6500a981e
myclaim-2 map[] b41f4f0e-c0ef-11e4-8be4-80e6500a981e
