Storage Volumes and Scope

We have seen that a Storage Class can restrict the Storage Volume scope within its definition. This scope governs the creation (but not the usage) of volumes, here’s the implications:

  • account: Owners of an account can create Storage Volumes for their accounts. This excludes the user account.
  • user: Single users can create Storage Volumes for their user account only. This excludes other accounts.
  • all: There is no scope restriction.

Why do these settings fail to control the usage scope?

Because Storage Volumes created within a user account are usable from any accounts a user is member of, this allows by example a user of the account Apple to use their home directory while running workflows from the account Apple.
