             Summary: Support reuse of scaled PVCs
                 Key: SPARK-55496
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-55496
             Project: Spark
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: Kubernetes
    Affects Versions: 4.1.1, 3.5.8
            Reporter: Filip Darmanovic


Most cloud providers today provide kubernetes storageClasses with 
allowVolumeExpansion set to true. This, paired with a PVC monitoring and 
scaling service like the [Kubernetes Volume 
Autoscaler|[https://github.com/DevOps-Nirvana/Kubernetes-Volume-Autoscaler],] 
allows the user to provision PVCs that can expand with growing storage 
requirements, saving costs by not over-provisioning. This expansion is done by 
simply increasing the storage request in the PVC's definition.

This approach however, presents a problem in the current code base, as there is 
a check in the replacePVCsIfNeeded function that matches the desired size with 
the existing pod definition, which would suddenly be ineligible for re-use 
after being expanded.

I propose a simple 1-character change that would allow disks with the same *or 
greater* size to be re-used. I will shortly make a PR with this change.
