Working with Datasets

You can mount datasets into workload containers in Plexus. Supported formats:

1. NFS datasets
2. S3 (AWS bucket) datasets

Open your account

Click My Account to configure datasets in your user profile.

Create a new dataset

Go to the Datasets tab and click New Dataset.

S3 datasets

Create an S3 dataset by filling in:

• Name: Name used to identify the dataset in Plexus. The dataset is mounted in the container using this name.
• Access key ID: AWS access key for authorization.
• Secret access key: AWS secret key for authorization.
• Bucket name: AWS bucket name (must exist in your account).
• Endpoint: AWS S3 URL with region (e.g. https://s3.us-west-2.amazonaws.com).

NFS datasets

Create an NFS dataset by filling in:

• Name: Name used to identify the dataset in Plexus. The dataset is mounted in the container using this name.
• Location: NFS URL with folder (e.g. nfs://server-nfs.com/folder_name). The server must be reachable from the cluster.

Verify dataset mount

To verify the dataset is mounted in the container, launch a workload after configuring the dataset and check the path /home/aac/shared/user/.

When datasets apply

Datasets are mounted only for new workload runs after you have configured the dataset.
