Citrix SecurSpaces™

Mount point storage

The Mount Point Storage section allows platform administrators to enable or disable Mount Point storage types for the platform.

Navigate to System Configuration > Integrations > Mount Point Storage.

System Configuration page showing the Mount Point Storage section with toggles for Azure Blob Storage and Azure File Storage

Warning

Mount Points are not supported in multi-region configurations.

Storage types can be enabled independently:

  • Enable Azure Blob Storage — Enables the use of Azure Blob-based storage, such as Azure Data Lake Storage (ADLS), as Mount Points.
  • Enable Azure File Storage — Enables the use of Azure File-based storage as Mount Points.
  • Enable AWS EFS Storage — Enables Amazon Elastic File System (EFS) as a Mount Point backend.
  • Enable AWS S3 Files Storage — Enables Amazon S3 Files as a Mount Point backend.

To enable a storage type:

  1. Navigate to System Configuration > Integrations > Mount Point Storage.
  2. Turn on the toggle for the desired storage type.

When a storage type is enabled, project owners can create Mount Points of that type, and developers can attach them to workspaces. When disabled, the corresponding Mount Point options are hidden across the platform.

For AWS storage, an administrator must also provide eligible Kubernetes storage classes for the backing storage. Project owners see only supported storage classes when they create or attach AWS Mount Points.

AWS Mount Points require AWS resources that Citrix SecurSpaces™ does not create, including the file system, per-Availability-Zone mount targets, IAM roles, and the storage classes themselves. The AWS storage type does not appear here until an eligible AWS storage class exists on the cluster. See Prepare AWS storage for Mount Points.

Note

Disabling a storage type does not delete existing Mount Point configurations. If you re-enable the feature, previously configured Mount Points become available again.

For details on creating and using Mount Points within a project, see Mount Points.
