    Article summary

    This topic describes how to deploy and configure Zesty Disk for K8s.  Installation is based on a Helm chart published in github repo.

    Prerequisites

    • A running EKS cluster, v1.7 or later, with the EBS CSI add-on installed, with one storage class defined

    • Kubectl is installed

    • Access to the Zesty platform
      For more information, see Access the Zesty platform/

    • The Zesty API key
      For more information, see Find your Zesty API key.

    • Outbound HTTPS communication from cluster nodes

    To install Zesty Disk for K8s:

    1. Add or update the Zesty repository to your Helm client:

      • To add the repository:

        helm repo add zestyrepo https://zesty-co.github.io/zesty-helm

      • If the repository is already configured, update it:

        helm repo update

    2. Install the Zesty PVC Helm chart:

      # Minimal

helm install zesty-pvc --set agentManager.apiKey=<API_KEY> zestyrepo/zesty

# With advanced options

helm install zesty-pvc --set agentManager.apiKey=<API_KEY> /

[--set agentManager.prometheusExporter.port=<PORT>] /

[--set "tolerations[0].operator=<VALUE>,tolerations[0].effect=<VALUE>,tolerations[0].key=<KEY>"] / 

[--set "nodeSelector.<KEY>=<VALUE>"] / 

[--set storageClassName=<storageClass name>] / 

[--namespace <Namespace>] /

    The following table describes the popular command arguments. For the full arguments list, see the Helm chart at https://zesty-co.github.io/zesty-helm/.

    Argument

    Mandatory

    Description

    agentManager.apiKey=<API_KEY>

    Yes

    Enter the Zesty-provided API Key. You can also enter the API key as a secret, as described in the Helm chart. To get your API key, see Find your Zesty API key.

    agentManager.prometheusExporter.port=<PORT>

    No

    Enables the Prometheus exported for Zesty Disk for K8s solution. We recommend using the Prometheus default port, 8443.

    agentManager.prometheusExporter.podMonitor.enabled=<bool>

    No

    Enables Prometheus autodiscovery of Zesty metrics.

    "tolerations[0].operator=<VALUE>,tolerations[0].effect=<VALUE>,tolerations[0].key=<KEY>"

    No

    Configures tolerations roles. You can set as many as needed while making sure to increase the list index number.

    "nodeSelector.<KEY>=<VALUE>"

    No

    Configures on which nodes Zesty Disk for K8s is allowed. Use quotes to avoid shell issues.

    For example, “nodeSelector.kubernetes\.io/os=linux”. Note the ‘\’ before the “.io” in the node selector key that is used as an escape character.

    --set storageClassName=<storageClass name>

    No

    Configures which storage class Zesty Disk for K8s will use to provision new disks. If this is not set, the first one found with EBS CSI provisioner (ebs.csi.aws.com) is used.

    --namespace <Namespace>

    No

    Specifies on which namespace Zesty Disk for K8s resources will be deployed.
