Starting with the release of Container Storage Modules v1.16.0, this repository will no longer be maintained as an open source project. Future development will continue under a closed source model. This change reflects our commitment to delivering even greater value to our customers by enabling faster innovation and more deeply integrated features with the Dell storage portfolio.
For existing customers using Dell’s Container Storage Modules, you will continue to receive:

• Ongoing Support & Community Engagement
  You will continue to receive high-quality support through Dell Support and our community channels. Your experience of engaging with the Dell community remains unchanged.
• Streamlined Deployment & Updates
  Deployment and update processes will remain consistent, ensuring a smooth and familiar experience.
• Access to Documentation & Resources
  All documentation and related materials will remain publicly accessible, providing transparency and technical guidance.
• Continued Access to Current Open Source Version
  The current open-source version will remain available under its existing license for those who rely on it.

Moving to a closed source model allows Dell’s development team to accelerate feature delivery and enhance integration across our Enterprise Kubernetes Storage solutions ultimately providing a more seamless and robust experience.
We deeply appreciate the contributions of the open source community and remain committed to supporting our customers through this transition.

For questions or access requests, please contact the maintainers via Dell Support.

• About

This project includes the base container image definition for the Container Storage Modules - Components.

To build the image, some requirements must be met:

• The supported build environment is restricted to RedHat Enterprise Linux version 9.0 and above
• buildah is used to build the container and must be installed

Once the requirements above are met, the image can be build via: make docker

Note: Due to the way that buildah operates, you may see warnings (or errors) in the output of make docker. The following messages can be safely ignored:

• /proc/ is not mounted. This is not a supported mode of operation. Please fix your invocation environment to mount /proc/ and /sys/ properly. Proceeding anyway. The /proc filesystem is not needed for the image creation.
• [Errno 13] Permission denied: '/var/log/rhsm/rhsm.log' - Further logging output will be written to stderr. This error comes from dnf as it is unable to write to the log file. Further errors from dnf will be sent to stderr instead of the log.
