Volume snapshot API moved to GA in 1.20, so volume snapshot v1beta1 was deprecated in 1.20.

What is the correct statement about the fate of the v1beta1 API for VolumeSnapshot @xing-yang? When did (or will) that API version transition from deprecated to unsupported?

[sftim]

I suspect the fix is to edit:

VolumeSnapshot v1beta1 was deprecated in v1.21 and is now unsupported

to:

VolumeSnapshot v1beta1 was deprecated in v1.20 and will become unsupported once Kubernetes v1.24 is released.

Does that sound right?

Change 1:

Above has to be : [diff: beta to GA]

Change 2:

VolumeSnapshot v1beta1 was deprecated in v1.21 and is now unsupported.

VolumeSnapshot v1beta1 was deprecated in v1.20 ..

[xing-yang]

@sftim The following is correct:

VolumeSnapshot v1beta1 CRD has been removed. Volume snapshot and restore functionality for Kubernetes and the Container Storage Interface (CSI), which provides standardized APIs design (CRDs) and adds PV snapshot/restore support for CSI volume drivers, moved to GA in v1.20. VolumeSnapshot v1beta1 was deprecated in v1.20 and is now unsupported. Refer to KEP-177: CSI Snapshot and Volume Snapshot GA blog for more information.
