# In-tree storage plugin to CSI Driver Migration | ||
|
||
Prior to CSI, Kubernetes provided a powerful volume plugin system. These volume | ||
plugins were “in-tree” meaning their code was part of the core Kubernetes code | ||
and shipped with the core Kubernetes binaries. The CSI migration effort enables | ||
the replacement of existing in-tree storage plugins such as kubernetes.io/rbd | ||
with a corresponding CSI driver. For more information on CSI migration effort | ||
refer [design doc](https://github.com/kubernetes/community/blob/master/contributors/design-proposals/storage/csi-migration.md) | ||
|
||
## RBD in-tree plugin to CSI migration | ||
|
||
This feature is tracked in Kubernetes for v1.23 as alpha under | ||
[RBD in-tree migration KEP](https://github.com/kubernetes/enhancements/issues/2923) | ||
. Below are the changes identified in the design discussions to enable CSI | ||
migration for RBD plugin: | ||
|
||
### ClusterID field in the migration request | ||
|
||
Considering the `clusterID` field is a required one for CSI, but in-tree | ||
StorageClass has `monitors` field as a required thing the clusterID will be sent | ||
from the migration library based on the monitors field, Kubernetes storage admin | ||
supposed to create a clusterID based on the monitors hash ( ex: `#md5sum <<< | ||
"<monaddress:port>"`) in the CSI config map and keep the monitors under this | ||
configuration before enabling the migration. While CSI driver receive the volume | ||
ID it will look at the configmap and figure out the monitors to do the | ||
operations. Thus, CSI operations are unchanged or untouched wrt to the clusterID | ||
field. | ||
|
||
### New Volume ID for existing volume operations | ||
|
||
The existing volume will have a volume ID passed in similar to the following | ||
format: | ||
|
||
``` | ||
mig_mons-<monitors-hash>_image-<imageUUID>_<pool-hash> | ||
``` | ||
|
||
Details on the hash values: | ||
|
||
* Monitors Hash: this carry a hash value (md5sum) which will be acted as the | ||
`clusterID` for the operations in this context. | ||
|
||
* ImageUUID: this is the unique UUID generated by Kubernetes for the created | ||
volume. | ||
|
||
* PoolHash: this is an encoded string of pool name. | ||
|
||
The existing in-tree volume's node operations should work without any issues as | ||
those will be tracked as static volumes for the CSI driver. From above volume | ||
ID, the CSI driver can also connect to the backend cluster and clean/delete the | ||
image. The migration volume ID carry the information like monitors, pool and | ||
image name which is good enough for the driver to identify and connect to the | ||
backend cluster for its operations. With above volume ID in place, we will be | ||
able to support mount, unmount, delete and resize operations. | ||
|
||
### Migration secret for CSI operations | ||
|
||
The in-tree secret has a data field called `key` which is the base64 admin | ||
secret key. The ceph CSI driver currently expect the secret to contain data | ||
field `UserKey` for the equivalent. The CSI driver also expect the `UserID` | ||
field which is not available in the in-tree secret by default. This | ||
missing `userID` will be filled (if the username differ than `admin`) in the | ||
migration secret as `adminId` field in the migration request, ie: | ||
|
||
`key` field value will be picked up from the migration secret to `UserKey` | ||
field. | ||
`adminId` field value will be picked up from the migration secret to `UserID` | ||
field | ||
|
||
if `adminId` field is nil or not set, `UserID` field will be filled with default | ||
value ie `admin`.The above logic get activated only when the secret is a | ||
migration secret, otherwise skipped to the normal workflow as we have today. | ||
|
||
## CephFS in-tree plugin to CSI migration | ||
|
||
This is yet to be done and tracked | ||
at [CephFS in-tree migration KEP](https://github.com/kubernetes/enhancements/issues/2924) | ||
