The liveness probe is a sidecar container that exposes an HTTP /healthz
endpoint, which serves as kubelet's livenessProbe hook
to monitor health of a CSI driver.
The liveness probe uses Probe()
call to check the CSI driver is healthy.
See CSI spec for more information about Probe API call.
Container Storage Interface (CSI)
This information reflects the head of this branch.
Compatible with CSI Version | Container Image | Min K8s Version |
---|---|---|
CSI Spec v1.0.0 | registry.k8s.io/sig-storage/livenessprobe | 1.13 |
See hostpath-with-livenessprobe.yaml
for example how to use the liveness probe with a CSI driver. Notice that actual
livenessProbe
is set on the container with the CSI driver. This way, Kubernetes
restarts the CSI driver container when the probe fails. The liveness probe
sidecar container only provides the HTTP endpoint for the probe and does not
contain livenessProbe
section by itself.

--csi-address <path to CSI socket>
: This is the path to the CSI driver socket inside the pod that the external-provisioner container will use to issue CSI operations (/run/csi/socket
is used by default).
-
--health-port <number>
: TCP ports for listening for healthz requests (default "9808") -
--probe-timeout <duration>
: Maximum duration of singleProbe()
call (default "1s"). -
--metrics-address <port>
: The TCP network address where the prometheus metrics endpoint will listen (example::8080
). The default is empty string, which means metrics endpoint is disabled. -
--metrics-path <path>
: The HTTP path where prometheus metrics will be exposed. Default is/metrics
." -
--http-endpoint <endpoint>
: The TCP network address where the HTTP server for diagnostics, including CSI driver health check and metrics. The default is empty string, which means the server is disabled. -
Arguments set by the
k8s.io/component-base/logs
package for klog are supported, such as--v <log level>
and--logging-format <log format>
.
