Every time I update a deployments image tag, have to remove persistent folder, update, then add it back

Ask a Question!

Every time I update a deployments image tag, I have to manually remove the persistent folder (pvc), click update, and then edit the deployment again and add back the persistent folder with the same existing pvc settings. Shouldn't I be able to just update the image tag without this process? If I don't remove the persistent folder beforehand I get the error:

persistentvolumeclaims "myapp-e2552340-2f99-4925-b4f6-e9071611c731" already exists

Created a brand new helloworld Deployment application using form method. image: buoyantio/helloworld:0.1.7. 1GB new persistent folder mounted to /data.

After helloworld Deployment application deployed, I clicked edit application and attempted to change the tag to latest. And see the following error:

Note: changing any aspect of the application, not just the image tag, e.g. cpu limit results in this error. I have to manually delete the persistent folder, click update, then go back and re-attach the persistent folder to the Deployment.
