Configuring SFS Turbo Mount Options

Prerequisites

The CCE Container Storage (Everest) version must be 1.2.8 or later. This add-on identifies the mount options and transfers them to the underlying storage resources. The parameter settings take effect only if the underlying storage resources support the specified options.

Notes and Constraints

• Due to the restrictions of the NFS protocol, if an SFS volume is mounted to a node for multiple times, link-related mounting parameters (such as timeo) take effect only when the SFS volume is mounted for the first time by default. For example, if the same SFS file system is mounted to multiple pods running on a node, the mounting parameter set later does not overwrite the existing parameter value. If you want to configure different mounting parameters in the preceding scenario, additionally configure the nosharecache parameter.

SFS Turbo Mount Options

The Everest add-on in CCE presets the options described in Table 1 for mounting SFS Turbo volumes.

Configuring Mount Options in a PV

You can use the mountOptions field to configure mount options in a PV. The options you can configure in mountOptions are listed in SFS Turbo Mount Options.

1. Use kubectl to access the cluster. For details, see Connecting to a Cluster Using kubectl.
2. Configure mount options in a PV. Example:

   apiVersion: v1
   kind: PersistentVolume
   metadata:
     annotations:
       pv.kubernetes.io/provisioned-by: everest-csi-provisioner
     name: pv-sfsturbo    # PV name
   spec:
     accessModes:
     - ReadWriteMany      # Access mode. The value must be ReadWriteMany for SFS Turbo.
     capacity:
       storage: 500Gi       # SFS Turbo volume capacity
     csi:
       driver: sfsturbo.csi.everest.io    # Dependent storage driver for the mounting
       fsType: nfs
       volumeHandle: {your_volume_id}   # SFS Turbo volume ID
       volumeAttributes:
         everest.io/share-export-location: {your_location}   # Shared path of the SFS Turbo volume
         everest.io/enterprise-project-id: {your_project_id}  # Project ID of the SFS Turbo volume
         storage.kubernetes.io/csiProvisionerIdentity: everest-csi-provisioner
     persistentVolumeReclaimPolicy: Retain    # Reclaim policy
     storageClassName: csi-sfsturbo           # StorageClass name of the SFS Turbo file system
     mountOptions:                            # Mount options
     - vers=3
     - nolock
     - timeo=600
     - hard

3. After a PV is created, you can create a PVC and bind it to the PV, and then mount the PV to the container in the workload. For details, see Using an Existing SFS Turbo File System Through a Static PV.
4. Check whether the mount options take effect.
   In this example, the PVC is mounted to the workload that uses the nginx:latest image. You can run the mount -l command to check whether the mount options take effect.

   1. View the pod to which the SFS Turbo volume has been mounted. In this example, the workload name is web-sfsturbo.

      kubectl get pod | grep web-sfsturbo

      The command output is as follows:

      web-sfsturbo-***   1/1     Running   0             23m

   2. Run the following command to check the mount options (web-sfsturbo-*** is an example pod):

      kubectl exec -it web-sfsturbo-*** -- mount -l | grep nfs

      If the mounting information in the command output is consistent with the configured mount options, the mount options have been configured.

      <Your mount path> on /data type nfs (rw,relatime,vers=3,rsize=1048576,wsize=1048576,namlen=255,hard,nolock,noresvport,proto=tcp,timeo=600,retrans=2,sec=sys,mountaddr=**.**.**.**,mountvers=3,mountport=20048,mountproto=tcp,local_lock=all,addr=**.**.**.**)
