Hi everyone, The document of StarRocks said: "*enable_load_volume_from_conf* Whether to allow StarRocks to create the default storage volume by using the object storage-related properties specified in the FE configuration file. Valid values: •

true

If you specify this item as

true

when creating a new shared-data cluster, StarRocks creates the built-in storage volume

builtin_storage_volume

using the object storage-related properties in the FE configuration file, and sets it as the default storage volume. However, if you have not specified the object storage-related properties, StarRocks fails to start. •

false

(Default) If you specify this item as

false

when creating a new shared-data cluster, StarRocks starts directly without creating the built-in storage volume. You must manually create a storage volume and set it as the default storage volume before creating any object in StarRocks. For more information, see Create the default storage volume. Supported from v3.1.0.

CAUTION

We strongly recommend you leave this item as

true

while you are upgrading an existing shared-data cluster from v3.0. If you specify this item as

false

, the databases and tables you created before the upgrade become read-only, and you cannot load data into them."

If I have created storage volume manually (set the option above to false), then I have been using starrocks for a period of time then I want to upgrade starrocks cluster, what do I need to do? "If you specify this item as

false

, the databases and tables you created before the upgrade become read-only, and you cannot load data into them." - so is it true that I need to change the helm chart values.yaml file to change this option to true then upgrading?

I don't think so. need to check with team about the "CAUTION" statement. don't think it is true.
