 > [!NOTE]
-> The location to configure mount options (mountOptions) depends on whether you're provisioning dynamic or static persistent volumes. If you're [dynamically provisioning a volume](/azure/aks/azure-csi-files-storage-provision#dynamically-provision-a-volume) with a storage class, specify the mount options on the storage class object (kind: StorageClass). If you’re [statically provisioning a volume](/azure/aks/azure-csi-files-storage-provision#statically-provision-a-volume), specify the mount options on the PersistentVolume object (kind: PersistentVolume). If you’re [mounting the file share as an inline volume](/azure/aks/azure-csi-files-storage-provision#mount-file-share-as-an-inline-volume), specify the mount options on the Pod object (kind: Pod).
