Hello, I’m deploying the K8s Percona Server with Helm. I use StorageClass for volumes of data but I also need to have a PVC mounting point in the main container that I keep unfolded in my cluster.  
I use sidecardVolumes to add the volume to the pod for satisfaction but I don’t know how to mount it in the “mongod” container.

```auto
sidecarVolumes:
      - name: pvc-exports
        persistentVolumeClaim:
          claimName: pvc-exports

```

```auto
resources:
      limits:
        cpu: "2000m"
        memory: "3G"
      requests:
        cpu: "100m"
        memory: "0.5G"
    volumeMounts: ### No it works
        - mountPath: /exports
          name: pvc-exports
    volumeSpec:
      # emptyDir: {}
      # hostPath:
      # path: /data
      pvc:
        # annotations:
        # volume.beta.kubernetes.io/storage-class: example-hostpath
        # labels:
        # rack: rack-22
        storageClassName: oci-bv
        accessModes: ["ReadWriteOnce"]
        resources:
          requests:
            storage: 10Gi

```

Hello @Carlos_Fernandez ,

sorry for not responding sooner. Could you please tell what is the use case here? Knowing that would help us to provide better suggestions.

The sidecar volume is mounted into a sidecar, so I’m not sure what use does it have for you.
