How to Use it?

Install cifs-utils on the Kubernetes host. For example, on Fedora based Linux

# yum -y install cifs-utils

Note, as explained in Azure File Storage for Linux, the Linux hosts and the file share must be in the same Azure region.

Obtain an Microsoft Azure storage account and create a secret that contains the base64 encoded Azure Storage account name and key. In the secret file, base64-encode Azure Storage account name and pair it with name azurestorageaccountname, and base64-encode Azure Storage access key and pair it with name azurestorageaccountkey.

Then create a Pod using the volume spec based on azure.

In the pod, you need to provide the following information:

• secretName: the name of the secret that contains both Azure storage account name and key.
• shareName: The share name to be used.
• readOnly: Whether the filesystem is used as readOnly.

Create the secret:

    # kubectl create -f examples/azure_file/secret/azure-secret.yaml

You should see the account name and key from kubectl get secret

Then create the Pod:

    # kubectl create -f examples/azure_file/azure.yaml
