 +**The following is a step by step guide to install and setup Kubernetes with Network Storage on your own hardware.**
  
 +
 +==== 1. Install MicroK8s ====
 +Install a lightweight Kubernetes distribution:
 +  sudo snap install microk8s --classic
 +
 +Check the installation status and wait for the Kubernetes services to initialize:
 +  microk8s status --wait-ready
 +
 +==== 2. Enable Required Add-ons in MicroK8s ====
 +List available and installed add-ons:
 +  microk8s status
 +
 +Enable necessary add-ons (replace [add-on name] with dns, hostpath-storage, ingress, or metallb):
 +  microk8s enable [add-on name]
 +
 +==== 3. Configure MetalLB ====
 +Enable MetalLB:
 +  microk8s enable metallb
 +
 +Provide an IP range for the load balancer when prompted **for example:**
 +  10.244.0.1-10.244.0.10
 +
 +==== 4. Install NFS CSI Driver ====
 +Add the NFS CSI driver Helm chart repository:
 +  microk8s helm3 repo add csi-driver-nfs https://raw.githubusercontent.com/kubernetes-csi/csi-driver-nfs/master/charts
 +  microk8s helm3 repo update
 +
 +Install the Helm chart for the NFS CSI driver:
 +  microk8s helm3 install csi-driver-nfs csi-driver-nfs/csi-driver-nfs --namespace kube-system
 +
 +Wait for the NFS CSI driver pods to be ready:
 +  microk8s kubectl wait --for=condition=ready pod -l app.kubernetes.io/name=csi-driver-nfs --namespace kube-system
 +
 +==== 5. Create and Apply NFS Storage Class ====
 +Create a **storageclass.yaml** file with the following content:
 +  apiVersion: storage.k8s.io/v1
 +  kind: StorageClass
 +  metadata:
 +    name: nfs-csi
 +  provisioner: nfs.csi.k8s.io
 +  parameters:
 +    server: <NFS_SERVER_IP>
 +    share: <NFS_EXPORT_PATH>
 +  reclaimPolicy: Delete
 +  mountOptions:
 +    - hard
 +    - nfsvers=4.1
 +
 +Replace **<NFS_SERVER_IP>** and **<NFS_EXPORT_PATH>** with the actual server IP and export path.
 +
 +Apply the StorageClass configuration:
 +  microk8s kubectl apply -f storageclass.yaml
 +  
 + 
 +This will install Kubernetes and all the necessary configuration required for your cluster. Now the cluster is ready for any application you want to install and run on it.
