While defining pv & pvc, we dont define the above. sorry trying to understand. All along i was thinking it has predefined values. while practicing noticed it accepts other values too. i tried with value “exam”

apiVersion: v1
kind: PersistentVolume
metadata:
  name: task-pv-volume
  labels:
    type: local
spec:
  storageClassName: exam
  capacity:
    storage: 10Gi
  accessModes:
    - ReadWriteOnce
  hostPath:
    path: "/mnt/data"
apiVersion: v1
kind: PersistentVolumeClaim
metadata:
  name: task-pv-claim
spec:
  storageClassName: exam
  accessModes:
    - ReadWriteOnce
  resources:
    requests:
      storage: 3Gi

Ok… In this example, can you please remove storageClassName & try to create pv & pvc ?
