The BeeGFS CSI driver enables Kubernetes clusters to dynamically provision and manage BeeGFS volumes, integrating high-performance BeeGFS storage with containerized workloads.

One Ensure all prerequisites are met

Review the prerequisites to ensure you have a running Kubernetes cluster, connectivity to the BeeGFS cluster, and the necessary permissions to install cluster-wide resources.

Two Deploy the BeeGFS CSI driver

Clone the BeeGFS CSI driver repository and deploy the driver using the provided Kubernetes manifests or overlays.

Three Verify deployment

Check that all BeeGFS CSI driver components are installed and operational by inspecting the relevant Kubernetes pods. Troubleshoot any issues, such as node scheduling conflicts or swap being enabled on nodes.

Four Deploy and validate example applications

Apply example Kubernetes manifests and confirm that workloads can access BeeGFS-backed storage as expected.
