title: Placing Files In A Kubernetes Persistent Volume Store On GKE
body: <p>I am trying to run a Factorio game server on Kubernetes (hosted on GKE).</p>
  
  <p>I have setup a Stateful Set with a Persistent Volume Claim and mounted it in the game server's save directory.  </p>
  
  <p>I would like to upload a save file from my local computer to this Persistent Volume Claim so I can access the save on the game server.  </p>
  
  <p>What would be the best way to upload a file to this Persistent Volume Claim?</p>
  
  <p>I have thought of 2 ways but I'm not sure which is best or if either are a good idea:</p>
  
  <ul>
  <li>Restore a disk snapshot with the files I want to the GCP disk which backs this Persistent Volume Claim</li>
  <li>Mount the Persistent Volume Claim on an FTP container, FTP the files up, and then mount it on the game container</li>
  </ul>
