# Azure Disk CSI Driver
|
|
|
|
The Azure Disk CSI driver allows you to provision volumes for pods with a Kubernetes deployment over Azure Cloud. The CSI driver replaces to volume provioning done by the in-tree azure cloud provider which is deprecated.
|
|
|
|
This documentation is an updated version of the in-tree Azure cloud provider documentation (azure.md).
|
|
|
|
To deploy Azure Disk CSI driver, uncomment the `azure_csi_enabled` option in `group_vars/all/azure.yml` and set it to `true`.
|
|
|
|
## Azure Disk CSI Storage Class
|
|
|
|
If you want to deploy the Azure Disk storage class to provision volumes dynamically, you should set `persistent_volumes_enabled` in `group_vars/k8s-cluster/k8s-cluster.yml` to `true`.
|
|
|
|
## Parameters
|
|
|
|
Before creating the instances you must first set the `azure_csi_` variables in the `group_vars/all.yml` file.
|
|
|
|
All of the values can be retrieved using the azure cli tool which can be downloaded here: <https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/cli/azure/install-azure-cli?view=azure-cli-latest>
|
|
|
|
After installation you have to run `az login` to get access to your account.
|
|
|
|
### azure\_csi\_tenant\_id + azure\_csi\_subscription\_id
|
|
|
|
Run `az account show` to retrieve your subscription id and tenant id:
|
|
`azure_csi_tenant_id` -> tenantId field
|
|
`azure_csi_subscription_id` -> id field
|
|
|
|
### azure\_csi\_location
|
|
|
|
The region your instances are located in, it can be something like `francecentral` or `norwayeast`. A full list of region names can be retrieved via `az account list-locations`
|
|
|
|
### azure\_csi\_resource\_group
|
|
|
|
The name of the resource group your instances are in, a list of your resource groups can be retrieved via `az group list`
|
|
|
|
Or you can do `az vm list | grep resourceGroup` and get the resource group corresponding to the VMs of your cluster.
|
|
|
|
The resource group name is not case sensitive.
|
|
|
|
### azure\_csi\_vnet\_name
|
|
|
|
The name of the virtual network your instances are in, can be retrieved via `az network vnet list`
|
|
|
|
### azure\_csi\_vnet\_resource\_group
|
|
|
|
The name of the resource group your vnet is in, can be retrieved via `az network vnet list | grep resourceGroup` and get the resource group corresponding to the vnet of your cluster.
|
|
|
|
### azure\_csi\_subnet\_name
|
|
|
|
The name of the subnet your instances are in, can be retrieved via `az network vnet subnet list --resource-group RESOURCE_GROUP --vnet-name VNET_NAME`
|
|
|
|
### azure\_csi\_security\_group\_name
|
|
|
|
The name of the network security group your instances are in, can be retrieved via `az network nsg list`
|
|
|
|
### azure\_csi\_aad\_client\_id + azure\_csi\_aad\_client\_secret
|
|
|
|
These will have to be generated first:
|
|
|
|
- Create an Azure AD Application with:
|
|
`az ad app create --display-name kubespray --identifier-uris http://kubespray --homepage http://kubespray.com --password CLIENT_SECRET`
|
|
|
|
Display name, identifier-uri, homepage and the password can be chosen
|
|
|
|
Note the AppId in the output.
|
|
|
|
- Create Service principal for the application with:
|
|
`az ad sp create --id AppId`
|
|
|
|
This is the AppId from the last command
|
|
|
|
- Create the role assignment with:
|
|
`az role assignment create --role "Owner" --assignee http://kubespray --subscription SUBSCRIPTION_ID`
|
|
|
|
azure\_csi\_aad\_client\_id must be set to the AppId, azure\_csi\_aad\_client\_secret is your chosen secret.
|
|
|
|
### azure\_csi\_use\_instance\_metadata
|
|
|
|
Use instance metadata service where possible. Boolean value.
|
|
|
|
## Test the Azure Disk CSI driver
|
|
|
|
To test the dynamic provisioning using Azure CSI driver, make sure to have the storage class deployed (through persistent volumes), and apply the following manifest:
|
|
|
|
```yml
|
|
---
|
|
apiVersion: v1
|
|
kind: PersistentVolumeClaim
|
|
metadata:
|
|

|
|

|
|

|
|

|
|

|
|

|
|

|
|

|
|
apiVersion: v1
|
|

|
|

|
|

|
|
command:
|
|
- "/bin/sh"
|
|
- "-c"
|
|
- while true; do echo $(date) >> /mnt/azuredisk/outfile; sleep 1; done
|
|
volumeMounts:
|
|
- name: azuredisk
|
|
mountPath: "/mnt/azuredisk"
|
|
volumes:
|
|
- name: azuredisk
|
|
