Volume Snapshots

By default, this is disabled.

Sync VolumeSnapshot resources from the virtual cluster to the host cluster.

Until enabled, creating a VolumeSnapshot custom resource in the virtual cluster has no effect on the host cluster.

Host prerequisites​

  • You should install the volume snapshots validating webhook in your host cluster and alternatively use the central admission controller feature within your vCluster.
  • Your host cluster must have all relevant snapshot CRDs installed, without which the vCluster instance fails to start when volume snapshots sync is enabled.
  • You should install a common snapshot controller on your host cluster, as well as a compatible CSI driver. Without these, vCluster cannot create the volume snapshots in the storage backend.
