resize the filesystem for static volume).

### Verify RBD static PVC
We can verify the RBD static PVC by creating a Pod that mounts the PVC.
```yaml
apiVersion: v1
kind: Pod
metadata:
name: rbd-static-pvc-test
namespace: default
spec:
containers:
- name: busybox
image: busybox:latest
volumeMounts:
- name: static-pvc
mountPath: /data/pvc
command: ["sleep", "3600"]
volumes:
- name: static-pvc
persistentVolumeClaim:
claimName: fs-static-pvc
```
```bash
$ kubectl create -f rbd-static-pvc-test.yaml
pod/rbd-static-pvc-test created
```
Verify that the PVC has been successfully mounted.
```bash
kubectl exec rbd-static-pvc-test -- df -h /data/pvc
```
Once you have completed the verification step, you can delete the test Pod for RBD.
```bash
$ kubectl delete pod rbd-static-pvc-test
pod "rbd-static-pvc-test" deleted
