Abstract: Techniques are disclosed for providing a distributed file storage system that permits containerized applications running in distinct container hosts to read/write to the same storage volume. In one embodiment, a file sharing volume service is configured to use a container orchestrator to start a respective file server for each shared storage volume mounted for use by user-level containerized application(s). The file sharing volume service further manages the file server by creating and updating a metadata entry that specifies (1) a count of a number of times the shared storage volume has been mounted for use, and (2) a port number exposed for use in mounting path(s) to access the shared storage volume. Upon receiving a request to run a containerized application with the shared storage volume, the file sharing volume service updates the metadata entry to increase the count, and retrieves and uses the port number to mount path(s) for accessing the shared storage volume.

Abstract: In a computer-implemented method for automated provisioning a certificate in a computing system a certificate signing request is accessed from a computing node by a centralized management tool of the computing system. The certificate signing request is provided to a certificate authority by the centralized management tool. A signed certificate is accessed from the certificate authority for the computing node. The signed certificate is provided to the computing node, by the centralized management tool, such that there is automated provisioning of the signed certificate at the computing node to establish trust of the computing node in the computing system.

Abstract: In a computer-implemented method for automated monitoring certificate expiration, automatically periodically accessing a plurality of computing nodes in a computing system for certificate expiration of a certificate of the plurality of computing nodes. The automatically periodically accessing is provided by a central management tool of the computing system. Automatically determining the certificate of the plurality of computing nodes has an impending certificate expiration by the central management tool of said computing system. In response to the determining, automatically generating an alert, by the central management tool, that indicates the impending certificate expiration of the certificate.
