Huawei CSI Service Issues on Huawei

Failed to Start the huawei-csi-node Service with Error Message "/var/lib/iscsi is not a directory" Reported

Mon, 01 Jan 0001 00:00:00 +0000

Symptom

The huawei-csi-node service cannot be started. When you run the kubectl describe daemonset huawei-csi-node -n huawei-csi command, error message “/var/lib/iscsi is not a directory” is reported.

Root Cause Analysis

The /var/lib/iscsi directory does not exist in the huawei-csi-node container.

Solution or Workaround

Use a remote access tool, such as PuTTY, to log in to any master node in the Kubernetes cluster through the management IP address.
Go to the directory where the Helm project is located. If the previous Helm project cannot be found, copy the helm directory in the component package to any directory on the master node. For details about the component package path, see Table 1 .

Huawei CSI Services Fail to Be Started and Error Message "/etc/localtime is not a file" Is Displayed

Mon, 01 Jan 0001 00:00:00 +0000

Symptom

During the installation and deployment of CSI, a Pod fails to run and is in the ContainerCreating state. Alarm /etc/localtime is not a file is generated for the Pod.

Root Cause Analysis

When the container mounts the /etc/localtime file on the host, the type is incorrectly identified. As a result, the container fails to mount the /etc/localtime file on the host and the Pod cannot run.

Procedure

Use a remote access tool, such as PuTTY, to log in to any master node in the Kubernetes cluster through the management IP address.
