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.

This project is a Go module (see golang.org Module information for explanation). The dependencies for this project are in the go.mod file.
To build the source, execute make clean build
.
To run unit tests, execute make unit-test
.
To build a podman based image, execute make podman-build
.
You can run an integration test on a Linux system by populating the env files at test/integration/
with values for your Dell EMC PowerScale systems and then run "make integration-test
".
Runtime Dependencies
Both the Controller and the Node portions of the driver can only be run on nodes which have network connectivity to a “PowerScale Cluster
” (which is used by the driver).
Documentation
For more detailed information on the driver, please refer to Container Storage Modules documentation.
