With the release of Kubernetes v1.30, the Azure Disk
CSI driver has adopted the force detach capability. This feature allows the driver
to force detach zone-redundant storage (ZRS) data disks from VM nodes in a
failed zone and attach them to another VM, reducing the Recovery Time Objective
(RTO).
Stateful workloads in AKS clusters can now quickly
recover from zone failures by detaching ZRS data disks from affected VM nodes
and reattaching them to new VMs.
