== Overview
|
|
|
|
{product-title} is capable of provisioning persistent volumes (PVs) by using the Container Storage Interface (CSI) driver for Microsoft Azure File Storage.
|
|
|
|
Familiarity with xref:../../storage/understanding-persistent-storage.adoc#understanding-persistent-storage[persistent storage] and xref:../../storage/container_storage_interface/persistent-storage-csi.adoc#persistent-storage-csi[configuring CSI volumes] is recommended when working with a CSI Operator and driver.
|
|
|
|
To create CSI-provisioned PVs that mount to Azure File storage assets, {product-title} installs the Azure File CSI Driver Operator and the Azure File CSI driver by default in the `openshift-cluster-csi-drivers` namespace.
|
|
|
|
* The _Azure File CSI Driver Operator_ provides a storage class that is named `azurefile-csi` that you can use to create persistent volume claims (PVCs). You can disable this default storage class if desired (see xref:../../storage/container_storage_interface/persistent-storage-csi-sc-manage.adoc#persistent-storage-csi-sc-manage[Managing the default storage class]).
|
|
|
|
* The _Azure File CSI driver_ enables you to create and mount Azure File PVs. The Azure File CSI driver supports dynamic volume provisioning by allowing storage volumes to be created on-demand, eliminating the need for cluster administrators to pre-provision storage.
|
|
|
|
Azure File CSI Driver Operator does not support:
|
|
|
|
* Virtual hard disks (VHD)
|
|
|
|
* Running on nodes with Federal Information Processing Standard (FIPS) mode enabled for Server Message Block (SMB) file share. However, Network File System (NFS) does support FIPS mode.
|
|
