Install Portworx on AKS

Below are the high-level steps you need to perform to install Portworx on Azure Kubernetes Service (AKS):

  1. Generate the Specs for Portworx Operator: Use the Portworx spec generator to create installation specs tailored to your AKS environment.

  2. Deploy Operator and StorageCluster: Install the Portworx Operator using the generated specs, and then deploy the Portworx StorageCluster.

  3. Verify Your Installation: Ensure that Portworx is installed and running correctly on your AKS cluster.

After verifying your Portworx installation, you are ready to begin utilizing it. To fully leverage Portworx's features such as AutoPilot and Portworx-powered Persistent Volumes, you should complete the following steps:

  1. Set Up Cluster Monitoring: Implement a monitoring solution for your Portworx cluster using tools like Prometheus and Grafana to track its health and performance.

  2. Create a PersistentVolumeClaim (PVC): Use Portworx to dynamically provision persistent volumes in your Kubernetes applications by creating PVCs.
