Starting from PowerProtect Data Manager version 19.15, PowerProtect Data Manager can protect Kubernetes non-snapshot Container Storage Interface (CSI) storage volumes in cases where the CSI driver does not support snapshots.
To enable protection and movement of data that is stored in the CSI solutions with no snapshot capability, add the controller configuration key:
“k8s.ppdm.csi.nonsnapshot.storageclasses”
along with the value as non-snapshot CSI storage class names.
Configuration Key | Supported Value |
k8s.ppdm.csi.nonsnapshot.storageclasses | Comma-separated list of non-snapshot CSI storage classes |
This key can be configured under the advanced options when adding the Kubernetes cluster asset source in the PowerProtect Data Manager UI as shown in the following. :
The following figure shows the backup job details section in PowerProtect Data Manager UI for the non-snapshot PVC:
