How much disk space do you need for Kubernetes Minikube

The minikube install by default around 16GB VM, you can configure your VM disk space using the:

minikube start --vm-driver kvm2 --disk-size 20GB

This way it will allocate 20GB diskspace to your VM.


I did a little digging into the source on the GitHub repo and found:

The minimum disk size for the VM is 2000MB (Validation Code)

    MinimumDiskSizeMB   = 2000

The default disk size for the VM is 20GB

    DefaultDiskSize     = "20g"
