Breaking change notice

Since v0.7.0, driver name changed from blobfuse.csi.azure.com to blob.csi.azure.com, volume created by v0.6.0(or prior version) could not be mounted by v0.7.0 driver. If you have volumes created by v0.6.0 version, just keep the driver running in your cluster.

Driver parameters

Please refer to blob.csi.azure.com driver parameters

Prerequisite

The driver depends on cloud provider config file, usually it's /etc/kubernetes/azure.json on all kubernetes nodes deployed by AKS or aks-engine, here is azure.json example.

To specify a different cloud provider config file, create azure-cred-file configmap before driver installation, e.g. for OpenShift, it's /etc/kubernetes/cloud.conf (make sure config file path is in the volumeMounts.mountPath)
kubectl create configmap azure-cred-file --from-literal=path="/etc/kubernetes/cloud.conf" --from-literal=path-windows="C:\\k\\cloud.conf" -n kube-system

This driver also supports read cloud config from kuberenetes secret.
If cluster identity is Managed Service Identity(MSI), make sure user assigned identity has Contributor role on node resource group
