The purpose of this document is to show how to create a data volume containing a new blank raw image.
You have a Kubernetes cluster up and running with CDI installed and at least one PersistentVolume is available or can be created dynamically.
Create the following DataVolume manifest:
apiVersion: cdi.kubevirt.io/v1beta1
kind: DataVolume
metadata:
name: blank-image-datavolume
spec:
source:
blank: {}
storage:
resources:
requests:
storage: 500Mi
Deploy the DataVolume manifest:
kubectl create -f blank-image-datavolume.yaml
An importer pod will be spawned and the new image will be created on your PV.
