# In-tree storage plugin to CSI Driver Migration
This document covers the example usage of in-tree RBD storage plugin to CSI
migration feature which can be enabled in a Kubernetes cluster. At present, this
feature is only supported for RBD in-tree plugin. Once this feature is enabled,
the in-tree volume requests (`kubernetes.io/rbd`) will be redirected to a
corresponding CSI (`rbd.csi.ceph.com`) driver.
## RBD
- [Prerequisite](#prerequisite)
- [Volume operations after enabling CSI migration](#volume-operations-after-enabling-csi-migration)
- [Create volume](#create-volume)
- [Mount volume to a POD](#mount-volume-to-a-pod)
- [Resize volume](#resize-volume)
- [Unmount volume](#unmount-volume)
- [Delete volume](#delete-volume)
- [References](#additional-references)
### Prerequisite
For in-tree RBD migration to CSI driver to be supported for your Kubernetes
cluster, the Kubernetes version running in your cluster should be >= v1.23. We
also need sidecar controllers (`csi-provisioner` and `csi-resizer`) which are
compatible with the Kubernetes version v1.23 to be available in your cluster.
You can enable the migration with a couple of feature gates in your Kubernetes
cluster. These feature gates are alpha in Kubernetes 1.23 release.
- `CSIMigrationRBD`: when enabled, it will redirect traffic from in-tree rbd
plugin (`kubernetes.io/rbd`) to CSI driver (`rbd.csi.ceph.com`), default
to `false` now.
- `IntreePluginRBDUnregister`: Disables the RBD in-tree driver
To enable feature gates, refer [feature gates](https://kubernetes.io/docs/reference/command-line-tools-reference/feature-gates/)
As a Kubernetes cluster operator that administers storage, here are the
prerequisites that you must complete before you attempt migration to the RBD CSI
driver:
- You must install the Ceph CSI driver (`rbd.csi.ceph.com`), v3.5.0 or above,
into your Kubernetes cluster.
- Configure `clusterID` field in the configmap as
discussed [here](https://github.com/ceph/ceph-csi/blob/devel/docs/design/proposals/intree-migrate.md#clusterid-field-in-the-migration-request)
- Configure migration secret as
discussed [here](https://github.com/ceph/ceph-csi/blob/devel/docs/design/proposals/intree-migrate.md#migration-secret-for-csi-operations)
In below examples, `fast-rbd` is in-tree storageclass with provisioner
referencing in-tree provisioner `Kubernetes.io/rbd`.
```console
$ kubectl describe sc fast-rbd |grep -i provisioner
Provisioner: Kubernetes.io/rbd
```
### Volume operations after enabling CSI migration
This section covers the operations on volumes provisioned after enabling CSI
migration in a cluster.
#### Create Volume
``` console
$ kubectl create -f pvc.yaml
persistentvolumeclaim/testpvc created
$ kubectl get pvc,pv
NAME STATUS VOLUME CAPACITY ACCESS MODES STORAGECLASS AGE
persistentvolumeclaim/testpvc Bound pvc-c4e7dca5-4be6-4168-8eb5-af6ade04261f 1Gi RWO fast-rbd 24s
NAME CAPACITY ACCESS MODES RECLAIM POLICY STATUS CLAIM STORAGECLASS REASON AGE
persistentvolume/pvc-c4e7dca5-4be6-4168-8eb5-af6ade04261f 1Gi RWO Delete Bound default/testpvc fast-rbd 18s
```
#### Mount Volume to a POD
Create a pod with PVC and verify the mount inside the POD
```console
$ kubectl create -f pod.yaml
pod/task-pv-pod created
$ kubectl get pods
NAME READY STATUS RESTARTS AGE
task-pv-pod 1/1 Running 0 2m36s
$ kubectl get pvc
NAME STATUS VOLUME CAPACITY ACCESS MODES STORAGECLASS AGE
testpvc Bound pvc-c4e7dca5-4be6-4168-8eb5-af6ade04261f 1Gi RWO fast-rbd 4m40s
$ kubectl exec -ti task-pv-pod -- df -kh |grep nginx
/dev/rbd0 976M 2.6M 958M 1% /usr/share/nginx/html
```
#### Resize Volume
Resize PVC from 1Gi to 2Gi and verify the new size change in the POD
```console
$ kubectl patch pvc testpvc -p '{"spec":{"resources":{"requests":{"storage":"2Gi"}}}}}'
persistentvolumeclaim/testpvc patched
$ kubectl exec -ti task-pv-pod -- df -kh |grep nginx
/dev/rbd0 2.0G 3.0M 2.0G 1% /usr/share/nginx/html
```
#### Unmount Volume
Delete POD and verify pod deleted successfully
```console
$ kubectl get pods
NAME READY STATUS RESTARTS AGE
task-pv-pod 1/1 Running 0 5m31s
$ kubectl delete pod task-pv-pod
pod "task-pv-pod" deleted
$ kubectl get pods
```
#### Delete volume
Delete PVC and verify PVC and PV objects are deleted
```console
$ kubectl delete pvc testpvc
persistentvolumeclaim "testpvc" deleted
$ kubectl get pvc
No resources found in default namespace.
$ kubectl get pv
No resources found
```
