Document how to consume a share inside the k8s cluster #174

Closed ibotty closed 2 years ago

ibotty commented 2 years ago

I used csi-driver-smb and a pv. If that's the intended way, I can write some documentation.

In the future it would, of course, be great to allow consuming smbshares with pods in the same namespace without the administrator having to manually create a pv.

Additional documentation would be very welcome! Thank you for the suggestion.

I agree that admins should not have to create the PVs manually. Longer term, for in-cluster provisioning, we hope to have the operator work with a CSI based provisioner for allocating shares and csi-driver-smb for mounting them. There's an experimental samba-in-kubernetes/csi-provisioner-smb project that got started last year. We hope to revitalize that project soon as well as make it more efficient to dynamically create/delete shares (see #175)
