What's the best practice for Trident backend configuration
Applies to
- ONTAP 9
- Trident
- Kubernetes
Answer
- A Kubernetes cluster can have exactly one running instance of Trident.
- When working with multiple Kubernetes clusters, users can install Trident on each Kubernetes cluster and consume storage from a NetApp backend.
- For ONTAP backends, NetApp recommends storage admins maintain a separate SVM per Kubernetes cluster.
- Each Kubernetes cluster can have multiple ONTAP backends using the same SVM for the same protocol.
