Configure NetApp Volumes

The Domino admin interface provides tools to configure and manage NetApp Volumes through a guided workflow. From the UI, administrators can register ONTAP Filesystems, define storage mappings, and monitor volume usage across projects. This includes setting dataplane associations, linking Kubernetes PVCs, and specifying storage classes backed by Trident.

Register a Filesystem

Once a Filesystem is registered, the UI also enables viewing, auditing, and managing individual NetApp Volumes, streamlining volume lifecycle operations from creation to snapshot tracking.

Register NetApp Filesystem

Admins can create ONTAP Filesystems from the ONTAP tab in the admin console:

  1. In the admin panel, go to Manage Resources > NetApp Volumes.

  2. Click Add Filesystem to create a new Filesystem.

  3. Provide the following information:

    • Name: 1–250 characters; can include letters, digits, underscores, hyphens, and spaces

    • Data Plane: Select from existing data planes; defines where the data will reside

    • Kubernetes Root PVC: Name of the Root PVC (must exist in the selected dataplane)

    • Storage Class: Kubernetes storage class name that uses Trident as the provisioner

  4. Click Save.

After registering a Filesystem, the next step is to create NetApp Volumes within that Filesystem. Here’s how the flow continues from an admin and user perspective:

View all NetApp Volumes

To view all existing NetApp Volumes in Domino, navigate to Admin Panel > Manage Resources > NetApp Volumes, then select the Volumes tab. This gives you a comprehensive list of all configured volumes along with key details for each one:
