Installing cert-manager csi-driver

Installation Steps

You must have a working installation of cert-manager present on your cluster and be running at least Kubernetes v1.16.

Instructions on how to install cert-manager can be found on this website.

To install csi-driver, use helm:

helm repo add jetstack https://charts.jetstack.io --force-update
helm upgrade -i -n cert-manager cert-manager-csi-driver jetstack/cert-manager-csi-driver --wait

Or apply the static manifests to your cluster:

helm repo add jetstack https://charts.jetstack.io --force-update
helm template jetstack/cert-manager-csi-driver | kubectl apply -n cert-manager -f -

You can verify the installation has completed correctly by checking the presence of the CSIDriver resource as well as a CSINode resource present for each node, referencing csi.cert-manager.io.

$ kubectl get csidrivers
NAME                     CREATED AT
