BEFORE STARTING
Before starting, I want to clear up some terminology. If you are familiar with using encryption in vCenter 6.5 or 6.7, you may remember VMware used the term KMS Cluster when referring to a Key Management Server. But, for some reason, which I haven’t been able to track down, they now use the term Key Provider. I think it has something to do with the new VMware vSphere Trust Authority, but this is a guess. If someone at VMware can explain the reason, I’d love to know why.

Encrypting workloads helps organizations to ensure their data is protected, even if the data falls into the wrong hands. One of the challenges of workload encryption is to scale the management of tens of thousands of encryption keys, for workloads that may even be hosted on different platforms.
For enabling vSphere VM encryption and managing lots of encryption keys vSphere wants a Key Management Server (KMS) to be added to the environment. In this blog post I will explain and setup a HyTrust KeyControl 5.3 server, which embodies a KMS server, and connect that with a VMware vSphere 6.7 and 7.X ..read more

What DaemonSet do ?
A DaemonSet ensures that all (or some) Nodes run a copy of a Pod. As nodes are added to the cluster, Pods are added to them. As nodes are removed from the cluster, those Pods are garbage collected. Deleting a DaemonSet will clean up the Pods it created.
Some typical uses of a DaemonSet are:
running a cluster storage daemon on every node
running a logs collection daemon on every node
running a node monitoring daemon on every node
In a simple case, one DaemonSet, covering all nodes, would be used for each type of daemon.
How do DaemonSets Work?
A DaemonSet is an a ..read more
