How to attach a specific Managed Disk ?

[theobolo]

Hello guys, just wondering how can i attach a specific managed disk (for example created from an old VHDs disk).

I'm migrating my clusters to the last ACS release and i want to migrate my application disks from old VHDS to Managed Disks and then specify into the deployment Yaml file, my managed disk for that application (i don't need a dynamic provisioning for those Statefull applications).

Used to do :

 - azureDisk:
          diskURI: https://integrationk8s.blob.core.windows.net/jenkins-master/example.vhd
          diskName: jenkins-master-data

Since we don't have any URI with managed Disks, i'm really not sure how to do it.

Thanks !

@anhowe is this a supported (or available, but unsupported) workflow?

Should be great to handle it for update scenarios :D

@theobolo static provisioning for azure disk does not support managed disk, you could only use existing azure unmanaged disk in unmanaged VM

@theobolo I was wrong, actually k8s already support attach a specifc manage disk, below is an example:

For detailed steps, you could refer to following link:
