Configure a Security Context for a Pod or Container — Delegating volume permission and ownership change to CSI driver
If you deploy a Container Storage Interface (CSI) driver which supports the VOLUME_MOUNT_GROUP NodeServiceCapability, the process of setting file ownership and permissions based on the fsGroup specified in the securityContext will be performed by the CSI driver instead of Kubernetes.

If you deploy a Container Storage Interface (CSI) driver which supports the VOLUME_MOUNT_GROUP NodeServiceCapability, the process of setting file ownership and permissions based on the fsGroup specified in the securityContext will be performed by the CSI driver instead of Kubernetes. In this case, since Kubernetes doesn't perform any ownership and permission change, fsGroupChangePolicy does not take effect, and as specified by CSI, the driver is expected to mount the volume with the provided fsGroup, resulting in a volume that is readable/writable by the fsGroup.
