**Describe the issue** :

Dear Team,

I used helm chart to deploy an opensearch pod that was PVC maintained, but when I didn’t use it for two days, say over the weekend, the index got automatically wiped.

Please assist me in finding a solution to this problem.

@sanpadaganesh1 Have you checked the stats of the PVC?  
Was it recreated or deleted?

```auto
kubectl describe pvc <pvc_name>

```
