Persistent Volume - Released

HI All,

When I uninstall a POD which had a PVC the PV shows in yellow (Released). Now if I install the POD again via helm it’s not able to bound again. That PV in state Released I could only remove manually. Is this by design ? Shouldn’t that release the PV back ?

Rancher 2.1.7

That is the standard k8s behavior. https://kubernetes.io/docs/concepts/storage/persistent-volumes/#reclaiming
