add `RabbitmqCluster.spec.persistence.selector` to select PV to bind

[wenmingwei]

Feature Requirement:

add RabbitmqCluster.spec.persistence.selector to select PV to bind

Backgroud:

I allocated RabbitmqCluster and cluster of other product on same nodes to share resources, when I created local-storage PV for each cluster(one PV for RabbitmqCluster and one PV for cluster of other product).
But I cannot bind RabbitmqCluster.spec.persistence to specified PV which is labeled.

The cluster operator creates a PVC dynamically using the StatefulSet volume claim template field. We did not consider static provisioned PVs as an option, and it makes more sense to support mainly dynamic PV provisioning.

If you still want to use the PV you created, you can override the PVC claim with the StatefulSet override feature, something like this:

---
apiVersion: rabbitmq.com/v1beta1
kind: RabbitmqCluster
metadata:
  name: my-rabbitmqcluster
spec:
  override:
    statefulSet:
      spec:
        volumeClaimTemplates:
          - spec:
              accessModes:
                - ReadWriteOnce
              selector:
                matchLabels:
                  rabbitmq: mylabel
              resources:
                requests:
                  storage: "15Gi"
            metadata:
              name: persistence
  persistence:
    storage: "15Gi"

The field .spec.override.statefulSet.spec.volumeClaimTemplate[].metadata.name is required and must be set to that value. You can tune the storage request and the label selector. Hope this helps!

@Zerpet What if we need to have more than one replica, will this work?

[Zerpet]

As long as you have sufficient PVs with the label in your selector, it should. Note that a single PV won't be claimed by two Pods, given the access mode defined, neither you should allow more than one RabbitMQ Pod access the same PV.
