Kubernetes PVC stuck in terminating.

June 21, 2020 by Daniel Casali

I had trouble deleting a PVC. I made sure that the PVC was not in use anymore. The PVC would not delete, the status showed “Terminating”. The solution, for me: change the “finalizers” metadata to null. Check out how I did it: After applying this patch the PVC successfully deleted.
