External Provisioner (non-csi) for Jiva and cStor

Note: We recommend OpenEBS users to shift towards CSI based provisioner available at https://github.com/openebs/cstor-operators and https://github.com/openebs/jiva-operator. This provisioner is mainly maintained to support existing cStor and Jiva users till they migrate before these provisioners are declared EOL by Mar 2022.

This provisioner is based on the Kubenretes external storage provisioner. This code has been migrated from https://github.com/openebs/external-storage/tree/release/openebs, as Kubernetes community deprecated the external-storage repository.

This repository contains code for building legacy cStor and Jiva provisioners like:

• openebs-k8s-provisioner - used for provisoining the legacy cStor and Jiva pools and volumes.
• snapshot-controller and snapshot-operator - for helping with snapshot and clone on legacy cStor volumes.
