Orphaned Resources Cleanup

When a StatefulSet gets deleted or a PVC is abandoned after a migration, the underlying PersistentVolume stays provisioned. Cloud providers keep billing for it. Over time, these orphaned volumes accumulate silently.

Kubeadapt now detects orphaned PVs automatically and shows you exactly what they cost.

The analyzer identifies two types of orphaned volumes:

• Unbound volumes: PVs in Available or Released state with no active claim. These are leftover from deleted workloads.
• Bound but unmounted: PVs that have a claim but no pod is actually mounting them. The volume exists, the claim exists, but nothing uses the data.

Each orphaned volume shows its size, storage class, monthly cost, and how long it has been orphaned. The total orphaned cost is summarized at the top of the page so you can see the aggregate waste at a glance.

Go to Available Savings in your cluster and click Manage orphaned resources. You'll see detected volumes with their status, cost, and age.
