Introduction

HPE Morpheus Kubernetes Service allows customers to deploy and manage Kubernetes clusters through the Morpheus hybrid cloud management platform. Since Morpheus uses a standard Linux distribution and upstream Kubernetes, the solution is fully supported by HPE CSI Driver for Kubernetes.

Brownfield Managed Clusters

Clusters that have been deployed prior to being managed by Morpheus are subject to qualification using the Compatibility and Support matrix. Both the host OS and Kubernetes distribution needs to be supported.

Installation

Users may deploy the HPE CSI Driver for Kubernetes on the managed cluster with their preferred method. HPE strongly recommend using the Helm chart.

Next Steps

Once the CSI driver is installed, a Secret and a StorageClass is needed to provision PersistentVolumes.

Known Issues and Limitations

All most recent configurations will most likely work and be supported by HPE. Here are some of the current limitations and issues.

  • Morpheus allows users to deploy and manage Kubernetes on AWS. The logical choice for storage would be HPE GreenLake Block Storage for AWS but the HPE CSI Driver for Kubernetes is not yet supported with the storage platform.
