I have an implementation of PMM running in a Kubernetes cluster.  
We are applying version 2.43.1, and we monitor only a MariaDB on Amazon RDS with QAN.

We noticed that when the pod drops for any reason, the server loose all the data.  
I tried to perform a snapshot of /srv folder onto a Kubernetes persistent volume, but data is lost as soon the pod restarts.

Where are the data available on the local storage?

Hello @Skipper_Technicolor,  
Please check out our [official Helm chart](https://docs.percona.com/percona-monitoring-and-management/setting-up/server/helm.html) for deploying PMM in K8S. The data is stored persistently in this case.
