Create busybox pod with two containers, each one will have the image busybox and will run the 'sleep 3600' command. Make both containers mount an emptyDir at '/etc/foo'. Connect to the second busybox, write the first column of '/etc/passwd' file to '/etc/foo/passwd'. Connect to the first busybox and write '/etc/foo/passwd' file to standard output. Delete pod.

This question is probably a better fit for the 'Multi-container-pods' section but I'm keeping it here as it will help you get acquainted with state
Easiest way to do this is to create a template pod with:
kubectl run busybox --image=busybox --restart=Never -o yaml --dry-run -- /bin/sh -c 'sleep 3600' > pod.yaml
vi pod.yaml
Copy paste the container definition and type the lines that have a comment in the end:
apiVersion: v1
kind: Pod
metadata:
creationTimestamp: null
labels:
run: busybox
name: busybox
spec:
dnsPolicy: ClusterFirst
restartPolicy: Never
containers:
- args:
- /bin/sh
- -c
- sleep 3600
image: busybox
imagePullPolicy: IfNotPresent
name: busybox
resources: {}
volumeMounts: #
- name: myvolume #
mountPath: /etc/foo #
- args:
- /bin/sh
- -c
- sleep 3600
image: busybox
name: busybox2 # don't forget to change the name during copy paste, must be different from the first container's name!
volumeMounts: #
- name: myvolume #
mountPath: /etc/foo #
volumes: #
- name: myvolume #
emptyDir: {} #
status: {}
dnsPolicy: ClusterFirst
restartPolicy: Never
Connect to the second container:
kubectl exec -it busybox -c busybox2 -- /bin/sh
cat /etc/passwd | cut -f 1 -d ':' > /etc/foo/passwd
cat /etc/foo/passwd # confirm that stuff has been written successfully
exit
Connect to the first container:
kubectl exec -it busybox -c busybox -- /bin/sh
mount | grep foo # confirm the mounting
cat /etc/foo/passwd
exit
kubectl delete po busybox
Create a PersistentVolume of 10Gi, called 'myvolume'. Make it have accessMode of 'ReadWriteOnce' and 'ReadWriteMany', storageClassName 'normal', mounted on hostPath '/etc/foo'. Save it on pv.yaml, add it to the cluster. Show the PersistentVolumes that exist on the cluster
show
vi pv.yaml
kind: PersistentVolume
apiVersion: v1
metadata:
name: myvolume
spec:
storageClassName: normal
capacity:
storage: 10Gi
accessModes:
- ReadWriteOnce
- ReadWriteMany
hostPath:
path: /etc/foo
Show the PersistentVolumes:
kubectl create -f pv.yaml
# will have status 'Available'
kubectl get pv
Create a PersistentVolumeClaim for this storage class, called mypvc, a request of 4Gi and an accessMode of ReadWriteOnce and save it on pvc.yaml. Create it on the cluster. Show the PersistentVolumeClaims of the cluster. Show the PersistentVolumes of the cluster
show
vi pvc.yaml
kind: PersistentVolumeClaim
apiVersion: v1
metadata:
name: mypvc
spec:
storageClassName: normal
accessModes:
- ReadWriteOnce
resources:
requests:
storage: 4Gi
Create it on the cluster:
kubectl create -f pvc.yaml
Show the PersistentVolumeClaims and PersistentVolumes:
kubectl get pvc # will show as 'Bound'
kubectl get pv # will show as 'Bound' as well
Create a busybox pod with command 'sleep 3600', save it on pod.yaml. Mount the PersistentVolumeClaim to '/etc/foo'. Connect to the 'busybox' pod, and copy the '/etc/passwd' file to '/etc/foo'
show
Create a skeleton pod:
kubectl run busybox --image=busybox --restart=Never -o yaml --dry-run -- /bin/sh -c 'sleep 3600' > pod.yaml
vi pod.yaml
Add the lines that finish with a comment:
apiVersion: v1
kind: Pod
metadata:
creationTimestamp: null
labels:
run: busybox
name: busybox
spec:
containers:
- args:
- /bin/sh
- -c
- sleep 3600
image: busybox
imagePullPolicy: IfNotPresent
name: busybox
resources: {}
volumeMounts: #
- name: myvolume #
mountPath: /etc/foo #
dnsPolicy: ClusterFirst
restartPolicy: Never
volumes: #
- name: myvolume #
persistentVolumeClaim: #
claimName: mypvc #
status: {}
Create the pod:
kubectl create -f pod.yaml
Connect to the pod and copy '/etc/passwd' to '/etc/foo/passwd':
kubectl exec busybox -it -- cp /etc/passwd /etc/foo/passwd
Create a second pod which is identical with the one you just created (you can easily do it by changing the 'name' property on pod.yaml). Connect to it and verify that '/etc/foo' contains the 'passwd' file. Delete pods to cleanup
show
Create the second pod, called busybox2:
vim pod.yaml
# change 'name: busybox' to 'name: busybox2'
kubectl create -f pod.yaml
kubectl exec busybox2 -- ls /etc/foo # will show 'passwd'
# cleanup
kubectl delete po busybox busybox2
Create a busybox pod with 'sleep 3600' as arguments. Copy '/etc/passwd' from the pod to your local folder
show
kubectl run busybox --image=busybox --restart=Never -- sleep 3600
kubectl cp busybox:/etc/passwd . # kubectl cp command
cat passwd
