username and password to access the server (for the volume). I need to edit a file in a volume about hetzner-k3s HOT 7 CLOSED

Hi, when you create a cluster you specify your public SSH key in the config file for the cluster. You can use the corresponding private key with the root user to SSH into the instances. The installer doesn't create a new SSH key, it just uses what you specify. You shouldn't need the password. Try with

ssh -i <path of private key> root@<ip address>

But, after re-reading, I am not sure of what you are trying to do exactly. Can you clarify?

Ive applied a nextcloud deployment and it is using the hetzner storage class to put application files on a hetzner volume for persistent storage.
I need to edit a file on the volume
But i dont know how to do that the quickest way

Is the volume attached and mounted to a pod? If yes you can just exec into the pod to access the volume. If it's not attached to a pod you could run a temporary pod with Ubuntu image or something and mount the volume there.

Hi. Yes the volume is in use by the pod.
I can use the exec command to put files on the volume but not view the file right? On my notepad for instance
So i need to view a file put a some lines in it and save it agian
Thats not possible with exec i thought

It depends on the image used for the container in the pod. If it's running as root you may be able to install and run vim or something and edit the file that way.
