Pointing K8 cluster to vSphere Storage Cluster

[sidharthswami]

Is this a BUG REPORT or FEATURE REQUEST?:

Uncomment only one, leave it on its own line:

/kind feature

What happened:
IHAC who is starting up with Kubernetes running on vSphere. They have a concerns as while configuring K8 cluster user need to specify the datastore manually for every deployment. As the environment grows if later at any point they need to re-point it to a different datastore then how this will happen? Also is there any possibility of pointing K8 cluster to vSphere Storage Cluster instead of specifying datastore which can make the process simpler.

What you expected to happen:
I need help on this query how to address it

How to reproduce it (as minimally and precisely as possible):
This is default behavior of K8 cluster

Anything else we need to know?:
NA

Environment:

• Kubernetes version (use kubectl version):
• Cloud provider or hardware configuration:
• OS (e.g. from /etc/os-release):
• Kernel (e.g. uname -a):
• Install tools:
• Others:
