CSI Drivers

General information regarding CSI Drivers and sample drivers that can be leveraged to evaluate Trilio for Kubernetes are discussed in this section

PreviousOpenSource Software DisclosureNextInstalling VolumeSnapshot CRDs

CSI Drivers and Snapshot capabilities

Please refer to the that lists almost all CSI drivers available along with the features that they support (snapshot, volume expansion etc.)

The snapshot feature must be supported by the CSI driver to be able to function with Trilio for Kubernetes

Sample CSI Drivers

If your environment does not support a CSI driver with snapshot functionality, a few sample CSI drivers along with instructions to install and configure are provided below. These CSI drivers can be leveraged for evaluating Trilio for Kubernetes.

Amazon Web Services EBS CSI Driver

If your Kubernetes cluster is running with Amazon Web Services, the EBS CSI Driver can be leveraged for persistent volume storage.

Please follow the steps to install and AWS EBS CSI Driver from

Google Cloud Platform GCE CSI Driver

If your Kubernetes cluster is running within Google Cloud, the Google Compute Engine CSI driver can be leveraged for persistent volume storage.

Please follow the steps to install the GCE CSI Driver from

Ceph CSI through Rook Operator

Rook is one of the Operators that is deployed through OpenShift Container Storage (OCS) operator. However, the snapshot capabilities are not enabled if installed via the OCS operator.

Therefore, to leverage Ceph CSI with snapshot capabilities as persistent storage, install the Rook based operator via the page.
