Azure File Snapshot feature

From v1.30.2, CSI driver now supports the restoration of an SMB file share snapshot, but does not support the restoration of an NFS file share snapshot.

Install CSI Driver

Follow the instructions to install snapshot driver.

1. Create source PVC and an example pod to write data

kubectl apply -f https://raw.githubusercontent.com/kubernetes-sigs/azurefile-csi-driver/master/deploy/example/storageclass-azurefile-csi.yaml
kubectl apply -f https://raw.githubusercontent.com/kubernetes-sigs/azurefile-csi-driver/master/deploy/example/pvc-azurefile-csi.yaml
kubectl apply -f https://raw.githubusercontent.com/kubernetes-sigs/azurefile-csi-driver/master/deploy/example/nginx-pod-azurefile.yaml
  • Check source PVC
$ kubectl exec nginx-azurefile -- ls /mnt/azurefile
outfile

2. Create a snapshot on source PVC

kubectl apply -f https://raw.githubusercontent.com/kubernetes-sigs/azurefile-csi-driver/master/deploy/example/snapshot/volumesnapshotclass-azurefile.yaml
kubectl apply -f https://raw.githubusercontent.com/kubernetes-sigs/azurefile-csi-driver/master/deploy/example/snapshot/volumesnapshot-azurefile.yaml
  • Check snapshot Status
$ kubectl describe volumesnapshot azurefile-volume-snapshot
Name:         azurefile-volume-snapshot
Namespace:    default
Labels:       <none>
Annotations:  API Version:  snapshot.storage.k8s.io/v1
Kind:         VolumeSnapshot

In above example, snapcontent-2b0ef334-4112-4c86-8360-079c625d5562 is the snapshot name

3. Create a new PVC based on snapshot

kubectl apply -f https://raw.githubusercontent.com/kubernetes-sigs/azurefile-csi-driver/master/deploy/example/snapshot/pvc-azurefile-snapshot-restored.yaml
kubectl apply -f https://raw.githubusercontent.com/kubernetes-sigs/azurefile-csi-driver/master/deploy/example/snapshot/nginx-pod-restored-snapshot.yaml
  • Check data
$ kubectl exec nginx-restored -- ls /mnt/azurefile
lost+found
outfile
