[QUESTION/HELP] k3d shared volumes

[Jean-Baptiste-Lasselle]

Question / Where do you need Help?

I categorized this issue as help, not bug, because I am not 100% sure yet it is a bug. I am trying to create a cluster with the --volume option, and the shared attribute. I get a fatal error, and the cluster is not created

Here is how I create my cluster, on MacOS :

# first, I delete the cluster if it exists 
k3d cluster delete jblCluster
export K3DVOL_GITFLOW_EXPERIMENT='/tmp/k3dvolumeforcsi'
if [ -d ${K3DVOL_GITFLOW_EXPERIMENT} ]; then
  rm -fr ${K3DVOL_GITFLOW_EXPERIMENT}
fi;
mkdir -p ${K3DVOL_GITFLOW_EXPERIMENT}/volume1
mkdir -p ${K3DVOL_GITFLOW_EXPERIMENT}/volume2
mkdir -p ${K3DVOL_GITFLOW_EXPERIMENT}/volume3
mkdir -p ${K3DVOL_GITFLOW_EXPERIMENT}/volume4

export VOLUME_OPT=""
export VOLUME_OPT="${VOLUME_OPT} --volume ${K3DVOL_GITFLOW_EXPERIMENT}/volume1:/tmp/k3dvol/app1:shared "
export VOLUME_OPT="${VOLUME_OPT} --volume ${K3DVOL_GITFLOW_EXPERIMENT}/volume2:/tmp/k3dvol/app2:shared "
export VOLUME_OPT="${VOLUME_OPT} --volume ${K3DVOL_GITFLOW_EXPERIMENT}/volume3:/tmp/k3dvol/app3:shared "
export VOLUME_OPT="${VOLUME_OPT} --volume ${K3DVOL_GITFLOW_EXPERIMENT}/volume4:/tmp/k3dvol/app4:shared "

echo "VOLUME_OPT=[${VOLUME_OPT}]"
k3d cluster create jblCluster ${VOLUME_OPT} --agents 3 --servers 3 --network jbl_network  -p 8080:80@agent[0] -p 8081:80@agent[1] -p 8090:8090@server[0]  -p 8091:8090@server[1] --api-port 0.0.0.0:7888

and here is my stdoutput :
