Description Hemant Kumar 2021-04-28 14:47:55 UTC 
disable volume expansion support in vsphere csi driver storage class
Comment 1 Hemant Kumar 2021-04-28 14:48:50 UTC 
We should disable it from storageclass for now - https://github.com/openshift/vmware-vsphere-csi-driver-operator/blob/master/assets/storageclass.yaml
Comment 2 Jonathan Dobson 2021-05-11 18:55:02 UTC 
Volume expansion is being disabled because the vSphere CSI driver is still in beta and has several limitations. First, it does not support volume expansion universally (see https://vsphere-csi-driver.sigs.k8s.io/supported_features_matrix.html). Second, volume expansion is not supported for all datastores (vSAN only right now). And finally, we do not yet have a e2e test for it.

Correction: it is only volume expansion support which is still in beta for this driver.
