Migrating Snipe-IT from Docker to K8s

[noor-muradi]

Hello folks,

I have been running Snipe-it app on my Docker environment since a year ago, now I want to migrate it to K8s with its existing data, to move the data of the DB and Snipe app, I have created two persistent volumes in the K8s cluster which is backed by NFS share. I have copied the data from "/var/lib/docker/volumes/snipe-vol/_data" and "/var/lib/docker/volumes/db-vol/_data" to nfs-server:/nfs-share/persistent-volumes/snipe-vol/ and nfs-server:/nfs-share/persistent-volumes/db-vol/, the DB is running smoothly but the when I run the Snipe app deployment, the pod crashes with below errors:

I had previously faced same issue with my Wordpress migration to K8s , I was getting same permission error with DB data, and I resolved it by changing ownership of the migrated data to NFS server to UID 999, so I have tried to change the permission of the Snipe app data on NFS server share recursively to www-data, docker, UID 1000, and root but none worked.

below is the logs of the Snipe pod on K8s.

chown: changing ownership of '/var/lib/snipeit/dumps': Operation not permitted

Changing upload limit to 100
Nothing to migrate.
