Kubernetes VMware UG: What’s New for K8s Users on VMware Infrastructure

on YouTube ↗16m

" summary

Covers the deprecation of in-tree cloud provider and storage plugin with removal targeted around Kubernetes 1.24 and migrations expected in the 1.22–1.24 window, warns that cloud provider and CSI storage driver must be upgraded together, and that vSphere versions older than 6.7u3 and VM hardware version 15 lose support. Notes a Kubernetes 1.21 CSI performance improvement for PV provisioning, raw block support is still in internal test, common failures stem from missing node UUID, bad vCenter credentials, or unsupported vSphere versions, and points to monthly user group meetings and a Slack channel for help.
