Abstract
The disclosure provides a method for securing, by a hypervisor of a host, a first persistent volume used to maintain data for one or more first containers on the host. The method generally includes receiving a request to retain the first persistent volume when the one or more first containers are removed from the host, receiving a first container image associated with one of the one or more first containers, generating a first key for reserving the first persistent volume, the key based, at least in part, on the first container image, and reserving the first persistent volume for exclusive access by the hypervisor using the first key.
