Automatically delete PersistentVolumeClaim resources #8783
Description
Description:
Currently, Persistent Volume Claims are not released automatically, making it hard to scale the StatefulSet seamlessly and efficiently.
The request is to release the PVCs when the StatefulSet is scaled down or deleted altogether. This functionality should be similar to how Elasticsearch handles PVC deletion, as described in their documentation: Controlling Volume Claim Deletion.
Implementing this feature will align the behavior with Elasticsearch's approach, providing a more intuitive and efficient scaling process.
