Enable Portworx CSI using a Nomad job
Enable Portworx CSI with Nomad by editing the portworx.nomad
file you used for initial deployment and make the following adjustments. After following these steps, your portworx.nomad
file should look like the example in the nomad job installation guide.
-
Add the
csi_plugin
stanza to Nomad job specification inside of the "portworx" group:csi_plugin {
id = "portworx"
type = "monolith"
mount_dir = "/var/lib/csi"
health_timeout = "30m" # Nomad 1.3.2 and later only
stage_publish_base_dir = "/var/lib/portworx" # Nomad 1.3.4 and later only
} -
Add the following environment variable under the "env" stanza:
CSI_ENDPOINT = "unix:///var/lib/csi/csi.sock"
-
Rerun the
portworx.nomad
file:nomad run portworx.nomad
Nomad will perform a rolling upgrade; only one instance will be updated at a time. This will not impact any applications, assuming they're running with more than one volume replica.
-
Once the CSI plugin is finished starting up, it should show all nodes as healthy:
$ nomad plugin status
