Set up a Samba Server on a Kubernetes cluster

This page will show you how to set up a Samba Server deployment on a Kubernetes cluster.

  • Use kubectl create secret to create smbcreds secret storing Samba Server username, password
kubectl create secret generic smbcreds --from-literal username=USERNAME --from-literal password="PASSWORD"

Option#1. Create a Samba Server deployment on local disk

Note: This example is for development purpose only. Since samba server is sticky to the node it is scheduled on, data would be lost if the pod is rescheduled on another node.

modify /smbshare-volume in deployment to specify different path for smb share data store

  • Access by Linux node
kubectl create -f https://raw.githubusercontent.com/kubernetes-csi/csi-driver-smb/master/deploy/example/smb-provisioner/smb-server.yaml
  • Access by Windows node
kubectl create -f https://raw.githubusercontent.com/kubernetes-csi/csi-driver-smb/master/deploy/example/smb-provisioner/smb-server-lb.yaml

Option#2. Create a Samba Server deployment on network disk

Default network disk in Azure is Azure managed disk and default one in GCE is persistent disk.

kubectl create -f https://raw.githubusercontent.com/kubernetes-csi/csi-driver-smb/master/deploy/example/smb-provisioner/smb-server-networkdisk.yaml

After deployment, a new service smb-server is created, file share path is //smb-server.default.svc.cluster.local/share
