Access volumes through proxy

[facorazza]

The Seaweed cluster I'm trying to use is external to the k8s cluster and I'm getting connection timeout in the csi-seaweedfs-plugin.
How can I define the volumeServerAccess=filerProxy argument using the helm chart?

I see thanks

It's definitely worth building into the csi driver, but a usable workaround until then is to have CoreDNS rewrite the internal request to point externally like this: https://github.com/OwnYourIO/SpencersLab/blob/ae68426d78892b0d89942c8ec43374cd35af42ba/services/media/prod/templates/pvc-media-seaweedfs.yaml#L38-L51

@TheHackmeister Good idea! Or send a PR to add the parameter?
