Container Service for Kubernetes:csi-plugin

Last Updated:Nov 11, 2024

You can use csi-plugin to mount and unmount volumes. By default, Container Service for Kubernetes (ACK) allows you to mount the following types of volumes by using csi-plugin: disk volumes, File Storage NAS (NAS) volumes, and Object Storage Service (OSS) volumes. This topic describes the overview, usage notes, and release notes for csi-plugin.

Introduction

The csi-plugin component provided by Alibaba Cloud follows the standard specification of Container Storage Interface (CSI) and allows you to mount storage media such as disks, NAS file systems, and OSS buckets. By default, the latest version of csi-plugin is installed when you create ACK clusters of Kubernetes 1.16 or later. You can directly use csi-plugin to mount storage services provided by Alibaba Cloud after your cluster is created. The csi-plugin component supports volume lifecycle management. You can use csi-plugin to create, mount, unmount, delete, and expand volumes.

Usage notes

For more information about how to use csi-plugin, see CSI overview.

Important
  • To use csi-plugin 1.22.8-8d3a569-aliyun and later versions, make sure that the Kubernetes version of your ACK cluster is later than 1.20.

  • To ensure the stability of clusters that run Kubernetes 1.20 or later, we recommend that you update csi-plugin in the clusters to 1.24.9-74f8490-aliyun or later.

  • The csi-plugin component in ACK Edge clusters support only NAS volumes.

  • When you upgrade csi-plugin, make sure that csi-provisioner is upgraded to the same version.

No impact on online services when you Install or upgrade components.

Faster disk mounting and unmounting in concurrent scenarios may increase cluster resource usage:

  • The throttling for the csi-provisioner client is increased from the default of 5 to 10, and the number of threads handling requests is increased from 10 to 16.

  • When many Persistent Volume Claims (PVCs) and Persistent Volumes (PVs) are used, the API server resource usage of the cluster will slightly increase.

  • When many PVCs and PVs are used, the resource usage of csi-provisioner will slightly increase.

Important
