Fix for Support selection of datastore for dynamic provisioning in vS…
Fixes#40558
Current vSphere Cloud provider doesn't allow a user to select a datastore for dynamic provisioning. All the volumes are created in default datastore provided by the user in the global vsphere configuration file.
With this fix, the user will be able to provide the datastore in the storage class definition. This will allow the volumes to be created in the datastore specified by the user in the storage class definition. This field is optional. If no datastore is specified, the volume will be created in the default datastore specified in the global config file.
For example:
User creates a storage class with the datastore
kind: StorageClass
apiVersion: storage.k8s.io/v1beta1
metadata:
name: slow
provisioner: kubernetes.io/vsphere-volume
parameters:
diskformat: thin
datastore: VMFSDatastore
Now the volume will be created in the datastore - "VMFSDatastore" specified by the user.
If the user creates a storage class without any datastore
kind: StorageClass
apiVersion: storage.k8s.io/v1beta1
metadata:
name: slow
provisioner: kubernetes.io/vsphere-volume
parameters:
diskformat: thin
Now the volume will be created in the datastore which in the global configuration file (vsphere.conf)
