[Feature] Add ability to customize the default size of Windows pods from 20GB to a higher value

Open israelvaldez opened this issue 1 year ago • 1 comments

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. Only 20GB are available to use in Windows containers, which causes some of our customers that run custom code that typically save files into anywhere in the C:\ drive of the application. Without asking all of our customer base to change their code to point to a volume mounted persistent volume that has a bigger available space we can't solve this problem.

Describe the solution you'd like Expose a configuration option in AKS so that we can customize the default disk space of Windows containers running on AKS

Describe alternatives you've considered Using persistent volumes, however that's impossible/improbable to change in the software we run as it allows custom code from our customers which can write files anywhere in the C:\ drive.

Additional context We're starting a project to move our Windows container images into Linux container images, does this limitation exist in Linux as well?
