Support for v1.22 will be added at a later release. Check the following document for supported Kubernetes releases for a given [vSphere CSI Driver version](https://vsphere-csi-driver.sigs.k8s.io/compatiblity_matrix.html#compatibility-matrix-for-vsphere-csi-driver).

* Kubernetes 1.12 also enables [Kubelet device plugin registration](https://github.com/kubernetes/enhancements/issues/595) feature by default. Before upgrading to 1.12, ensure the `driver-registrar` CSI sidecar container for your CSI driver is configured to handle plugin registration (set the `--kubel...

- This release enables in-tree RBD migration to CSI driver with a couple of feature gates.  These featuregates are alpha in this release.

  - `CSIMigrationRBD`: when enabled, it will redirect traffic from in tree rbd plugin ( kubernetes.io/rbd )  to CSI driver ( rbd.csi.ceph.com) , default to `false` now.
  - `IntreePluginRBDUnregister`: Disables the RBD in-tree driver

  The feature gates can be enabled by:

- Promote CSIMigrationOpenStack to Beta (off by default since it requires installation of the OpenStack Cinder CSI Driver. The in-tree AWS OpenStack Cinder driver "kubernetes.io/cinder" was deprecated in 1.16 and will be removed in 1.20. Users should enable CSIMigration + CSIMigrationOpenStack features and install the OpenStack Cinder CSI Driver (https://github.com/kubernetes/cloud-provider-openstack) to avoid disruption to existing Pod and PVC objects at that time. Users should...

- Set CSIMigrationvSphere feature gates to beta.
  Users should enable CSIMigration + CSIMigrationvSphere features and install the vSphere CSI Driver (https://github.com/kubernetes-sigs/vsphere-csi-driver) to move workload from the in-tree vSphere plugin "kubernetes.io/vsphere-volume" to vSphere CSI Driver.
