QuestionQ10

Configure storage access.

A customer’s Kubernetes application team wants to use the newly installed HPE Alletra Storage MP B10000 storage array.

The CSI driver is correctly enabled on the Kubernetes platform through the HPE-provided Operator mechanisms. However, the team cannot provision persistent storage volumes by using PersistentVolumeClaims.

What is required to make PersistentVolumeClaims (PVCs) work?

  • A Persistent volumes for Kubernetes is not supported on the array.
  • B A StorageClass needs to be defined.
  • C The Kubernetes controllers need to be registered using the VASA provider before PVC’s can be used.
  • D A master Kubernetes space needs to be created on the array.
Explanation

Dynamic provisioning from a PersistentVolumeClaim requires a Kubernetes StorageClass that references the HPE CSI provisioner and supplies its provisioning settings. The HPE CSI driver supports HPE Alletra Storage MP B10000, and HPE documentation describes PVCs using a StorageClass to dynamically provision storage-backed persistent volumes.
