title: AWS EKS EFS mounted volume. In spite 21Gi in claimed volume the pod has 8E (full possible size of EFS)
body: <p>In spite 21Gi being set in claimed volume, the pod has 8E (full possible size of EFS)</p>
  <p>Is it OK and storage size is limited. Or did I make a mistake in configuration and there needs to change, or something other?</p>
  <p>I will be appreciated for your help.</p>
