This driver allows Kubernetes to access Azure Storage through one of following methods:
Disclaimer: Deploying this driver manually is not an officially supported Microsoft product. For a fully managed and supported experience on Kubernetes, use AKS with the managed blob csi driver.

driver parameters
- This option depends on cloud provider config file (here is config example), config file path on different clusters:
- AKS, capz, aks-engine:
/etc/kubernetes/azure.json
- Azure RedHat OpenShift:
/etc/kubernetes/cloud.conf
- AKS, capz, aks-engine:
-
specify a different config file path via configmap
create configmap "azure-cred-file" before driver starts upkubectl create configmap azure-cred-file --from-literal=path="/etc/kubernetes/cloud.conf" --from-literal=path-windows="C:\\k\\cloud.conf" -n kube-system
- Cloud provider config can also be specified via kubernetes secret, check details here
- Make sure identity used by driver has
Contributor
role on node resource group and virtual network resource group
This option does not depend on cloud provider config file, supports cross subscription and on-premise cluster scenario. Refer to detailed steps.
Note: this feature is only available in v1.19.5, v1.21.1 and later versions.
To install specific blobfuse v1 version, run following command directly after driver is running on the agent node:
kubectl patch daemonset csi-blob-node -n kube-system -p '{"spec":{"template":{"spec":{"initContainers":[{"env":[{"name":"INSTALL_BLOBFUSE","value":"true"},{"name":"BLOBFUSE_VERSION","value":"1.4.5"}],"name":"install-blobfuse-proxy"}]}}}}'
To install specific blobfuse v2 version, run following command directly after driver is running on the agent node:
kubectl patch daemonset csi-blob-node -n kube-system -p '{"spec":{"template":{"spec":{"initContainers":[{"env":[{"name":"INSTALL_BLOBFUSE2","value":"true"},{"name":"BLOBFUSE2_VERSION","value":"2.0.3"}],"name":"install-blobfuse-proxy"}]}}}}'
