    Container Service for Kubernetes:alicloud-disk-controller (Deprecated)

    Last Updated:Mar 26, 2025

    Disks can be automatically created by using alicloud-disk-controller. This topic describes the release notes for the alicloud-disk-controller component.

    Important

    alicloud-disk-controller has been deprecated and is no longer maintained since v1.16. For new clusters, use the csi-provisioner or csi-plugin components instead.

    Introduction

    To create dynamically provisioned persistent volumes (PVs) in a Kubernetes cluster that uses FlexVolume, you must install alicloud-disk-controller. This is because FlexVolume cannot be used to create dynamically provisioned PVs.

    Usage notes

    For more information about how to install alicloud-disk-controller, see Install and upgrade FlexVolume.
