You need to backup a customer’s on premises Kubernetes cluster. The customer is not using a csi driver for storage. Can Kasten still back this up? If so how?

Interesting question and scenario, some weeks ago I installed a lab with K8S cluster with NFS as a backend storage (in a local environment), then I installed install K10 and after that I realized a CSI Hostpath driver it was installed too (Actually NFS doesn’t support snapshot capabilities and hostpath it does {but this one is not an implementation for production environments}).
I think K10 solves this issue installing hostpath CSI driver, but it would be good if exists another option (sooner I expect) or we wait to CSI NFS evolves and finally support snapshot features.
Best regards and have a nice workweek.
