Abstract
A Kubernetes migration orchestration manager includes a virtual CSI driver and a pod monitor interface. The virtual CSI driver enables the Kubernetes migration orchestration manager to interact with multiple types of storage system, to ensure that persistent volumes created on a first storage system type are able to be created and synchronized on a second storage system type. The pod monitor interface enables the Kubernetes migration orchestration manager to interact with the pod monitor of the Kubernetes cluster to artificially cause the pod monitor to apply a taint to nodes on the first site. This causes the pod monitor to shut down pods on Site A and to restart the pods on Site B. By stretching persistent volumes to Site B storage system and sequentially migrating pods to Site B, it is possible to orchestrate migration of the k8s cluster without shutting down the k8s cluster.
