+## SEAWEEDFS - helm chart (2.x)
+
+### info:
+* master/filer/volume are stateful sets with anti-affinity on the hostname,
+so your deployment will be spread/HA.
+* chart is using memsql(mysql) as the filer backend to enable HA (multiple filer instances)
+and backup/HA memsql can provide.
+* mysql user/password are created in a k8s secret (secret-seaweedfs-db.yaml) and injected to the filer
+with ENV.
+* cert config exists and can be enabled, but not been tested.
+
+### prerequisites
+kubernetes node have labels which help to define which node(Host) will run which pod.
+
+s3/filer/master needs the label **sw-backend=true**
+
+volume need the label **sw-volume=true**
+
+to label a node to be able to run all pod types in k8s:
+```
+kubectl label node YOUR_NODE_NAME sw-volume=true,sw-backend=true
+```
+
+on production k8s deployment you will want each pod to have a different host,
+especially the volume server & the masters, currently all pods (master/volume/filer)
+have anti-affinity rule to disallow running multiple pod type on the same host.
+if you still want to run multiple pods of the same type (master/volume/filer) on the same host
+please set/update the corresponding affinity rule in values.yaml to an empty one:
+
+```affinity: ""```
+
+### PVC - storage class ###
+
+on the volume stateful set added support for K8S PVC, currently example
+with the simple local-path-provisioner from Rancher (comes included with k3d / k3s)
+https://github.com/rancher/local-path-provisioner
+
+you can use ANY storage class you like, just update the correct storage-class
+for your deployment.
+
+### current instances config (AIO):
+1 instance for each type (master/filer+s3/volume)
+
+you can update the replicas count for each node type in values.yaml,
+need to add more nodes with the corresponding labels.
+
+most of the configuration are available through values.yaml
+
