Description
Go fileblob creates local files using
os.tempdir
which tries to create files in/tmp
in Linux. If we try to store the final files in a path mounted by an external volume (e.g: PV in K8s), this produces ainvalid cross device link
error. Details: google/go-cloud#3294Furthermore, the
/tmp
path lies under the pod ephemeral storage in K8s and therefore, the disk size is not guaranteed!This PR addresses the issue by applying the suggested solutions by the maintainers of fileblob. The solution is to append a
no_tmp_dir
query parameter tofile://
urls. This should allow using K8s persistent volumes to store local archive files during db pruning.
