k8s: Kubernetes v1.34: Recovery From Volume Expansion Failure (GA)
Kubernetes Official Blog
2025-09-19
Kubernetes v1.34 graduates automated recovery from failed persistent volume expansions to GA. Users can correct an over-sized PersistentVolumeClaim (PVC) by reducing the requested size (as long as the new request is still larger than the PV's original capacity) without cluster-admin intervention; consumed quota from a failed expansion is returned automatically. The release also introduces improved observability and error reporting for expansion operations, retries with reduced request rates, and several resizing workflow bug fixes.
