  • NetApp Trident
  • Azure NetApp Files (ANF) backend
  • Deployments in Microsoft Azure US Government Cloud
  • Kubernetes clusters using Trident for storage provisioning

Issue

  • When deploying a Trident backend for Azure NetAppFiles (ANF) in the Azure US Government Cloud, backend creation fails with thefollowing error:

Failed to create backend: problem initializing storagedriver 'azure-netapp-files': error initializing azure-netapp-files SDK client.POST https://management.azure.com/providers/Microsoft.ResourceGraph/resources

Backend creation fails with NoValidSubscriptionsInQueryRequest despite correct environment settings in the Trident BackendConfig.

  • Observed Behavior:
    • Trident attempts to connect to the commercial Azure endpoint (management.azure.com) instead of the required US Gov endpoint (management.usgovcloudapi.net).
    • The backend configuration includes environment: AzureUSGovernment, but this does not take effect.
    • Trident backend creation is unsuccessful, blocking ANF provisioning in the GovCloud region.
