Storage APIs

CSIDriver [storage.k8s.io/v1]

Description

CSIDriver captures information about a Container Storage Interface (CSI) volume driver deployed on the cluster. Kubernetes attach detach controller uses this object to determine whether attach is required. Kubelet uses this object to determine whether pod information needs to be passed on mount. CSIDriver objects are non-namespaced.

Type

object

CSINode [storage.k8s.io/v1]

Description

CSINode holds information about all CSI drivers installed on a node. CSI drivers do not need to create the CSINode object directly. As long as they use the node-driver-registrar sidecar container, the kubelet will automatically populate the CSINode object for the CSI driver as part of kubelet plugin registration. CSINode has the same name as a node. If the object is missing, it means either there are no CSI Drivers available on the node, or the Kubelet version is low enough that it doesn’t create this object. CSINode has an OwnerReference that points to the corresponding node object.

Type

object

CSIStorageCapacity [storage.k8s.io/v1beta1]

Description

CSIStorageCapacity stores the result of one CSI GetCapacity call. For a given StorageClass, this describes the available capacity in a particular topology segment. This can be used when considering where to instantiate new PersistentVolumes.

For example this can express things like: - StorageClass “standard” has “1234 GiB” available in “topology.kubernetes.io/zone=us-east1” - StorageClass “localssd” has “10 GiB” available in “kubernetes.io/hostname=knode-abc123”

The following three cases all imply that no capacity is available for a certain combination: - no object exists with suitable topology and storage class name - such an object exists, but the capacity is unset - such an object exists, but the capacity is zero

The producer of these objects can decide which approach is more suitable.

They are consumed by the kube-scheduler if the CSIStorageCapacity beta feature gate is enabled there and a CSI driver opts into capacity-aware scheduling with CSIDriver.StorageCapacity.

Type

object

PersistentVolumeClaim [core/v1]

Description

PersistentVolumeClaim is a user’s request for and claim to a persistent volume

Type

object

StorageClass [storage.k8s.io/v1]

Description

StorageClass describes the parameters for a class of storage for which PersistentVolumes can be dynamically provisioned.

StorageClasses are non-namespaced; the name of the storage class according to etcd is in ObjectMeta.Name.

Type

object

StorageState [migration.k8s.io/v1alpha1]

Description

The state of the storage of a specific resource.

Type

object

StorageVersionMigration [migration.k8s.io/v1alpha1]

Description

StorageVersionMigration represents a migration of stored data to the latest storage version.

Type

object

VolumeAttachment [storage.k8s.io/v1]

Description

VolumeAttachment captures the intent to attach or detach the specified volume to/from the specified node.

VolumeAttachment objects are non-namespaced.

Type

object

VolumeSnapshot [snapshot.storage.k8s.io/v1]

Description

VolumeSnapshot is a user’s request for either creating a point-in-time snapshot of a persistent volume, or binding to a pre-existing snapshot.

Type

object

VolumeSnapshotClass [snapshot.storage.k8s.io/v1]

Description

VolumeSnapshotClass specifies parameters that a underlying storage system uses when creating a volume snapshot. A specific VolumeSnapshotClass is used by specifying its name in a VolumeSnapshot object. VolumeSnapshotClasses are non-namespaced

Type

object

VolumeSnapshotContent [snapshot.storage.k8s.io/v1]

Description

VolumeSnapshotContent represents the actual “on-disk” snapshot object in the underlying storage system

Type

object
