Description

Removing CSI driver-initiated pause and resume actions for metro replication session during volume expansion operations.
User must now pause the metro session from the PowerStore UI before initiating a volume expansion request within Kubernetes and resume the metro session after the PVC reflects the updated size.

Removed unit tests that were no longer relevant to the implementation.
coverage percentage has been maintained

Testing

StorageClass for testing:

Manual Volume Expansion

• Created and applied a metro storage class with allowVolumeExpansion: true.
• Created a pod with 8Gi PVC and waited for the PV to be provisioned.
• Paused the metro session for the volume from the PowerStore UI.
• Initiated the expand-volume request by editing the PVC from 8Gi to 20Gi, and noted the change reflected in the PV.
• Resumed the metro session for the volume from the PowerStore UI.
• After the metro session state returned to 'Operating Normally (Active-Active), noted the PVC also reflected the new volume size (about 3m from the time the resume operation occurred).
• Performed a write operation in the directory mounted via the PVC.
