Persistent storage (volumes)

How to link a persistent storage (volume) to my Compute instance?

If you need to store your dataset after the end of your instance, you need to add a volume to your Pod. There are two ways to create a volume on Sesterce Cloud:

• From "Storage" tab

• Directly from the instance creation path

If you don't have volume created yet, we suggest the second option. All you need to do is to make sure that the offers displayed are supporting volumes by ticking the appropriate box.

To create a volume, select your volume name and the size you need (in GB).

How to create a persistent volume from Storage page?

First, click on "Create volume" or "New volume" button (see below)

Volume name and region

Then, choose Volume name via the corresponding text field and Region where the volume will be hosted.

Availability Zone

According to the Region selected, several AZ will be available or note. Please note that you'll be able to link your Volume only to Compute instances that are launched in the same Regions and Availability Zone.

To simplify the process to its maximum, we implemented the following path: once your Volume is created, you can launch an instance via a dedicated CTA from volume page directly.

1. Click on the Volume card

1. Click "Attach GPU Instance"

You will be redirected to the Compute page, displaying all instances offers that match with your Persistent Volume location.
