<p>Is it possible to pass the "--volume-driver" with in kubernetes' yml file?</p>

<p>Ex. Using Docker I can perform the following</p>

<p>docker run --volume-driver rbd -v image:/mountpoint ubuntu</p>

<p>Thanks</p>

<p>Kubernetes does support several volume types, including rbd, as you mention in your example. When you create a pod, you can specify what volumes and their types you want in the yaml file.  Documentation on volumes is here: <a href="http://kubernetes.io/v1.0/docs/user-guide/volumes.html#rbd" rel="nofollow">http://kubernetes.io/v1.0/docs/user-guide/volumes.html#rbd</a></p>

<p>Kubernetes uses its own volume system that is different from Docker's: Kubenetes supports some types of volumes that Docker doesn't and vice versa.</p>
