This repo was created to help you better understand the benefits you can get from Trident, for both the end-user & the admin teams. You will find several exercises, described in a step-by-step fashion, that you can use on the NetApp Lab-on-Demand or on your own environment.
With the introduction of Trident Protect in November 2024, extra scenarios have been added to see how you can protect stateful applications!
The section has been tested with the Lab-on-Demand Using Trident with Kubernetes Advanced v6.0 which comes with Trident 🔱 24.02.0 already installed on Kubernetes 1.29.4.
Most labs will be done by connecting with Putty to the RHEL3 host (root/Netapp1!).
I assume each scenario will be run in its own directory. Also, you will find a README file for each scenario.
Last, there are plenty of commands to write or copy/paste.
Try using some of the shortcuts you will find in the the Addenda0 !

- You may have seen that starting in November 2020, there are now limits on how many pull requests can be done on the Docker Hub.
- As this lab was created with an _anonymous_ user, please read carefully the Addenda08 before starting this lab.💥 💥 💥 💥 💥 💥 💥 💥 💥 💥 💥 💥 💥 💥 💥 💥
