# Rook Toolbox
The Rook toolbox is a container with common tools used for rook debugging and testing.
The toolbox is based on CentOS, so more tools of your choosing can be easily installed with `yum`.
## Running the Toolbox in Kubernetes
The rook toolbox can run as a deployment in a Kubernetes cluster. After you ensure you have a running Kubernetes cluster with rook deployed (see the [Kubernetes](ceph-quickstart.md) instructions),
launch the rook-ceph-tools pod.
Save the tools spec as `toolbox.yaml`:
```yaml
apiVersion: apps/v1
kind: Deployment
metadata:
name: rook-ceph-tools
namespace: rook-ceph
labels:
app: rook-ceph-tools
spec:
replicas: 1
selector:
matchLabels:
app: rook-ceph-tools
template:
metadata:
labels:
app: rook-ceph-tools
spec:
dnsPolicy: ClusterFirstWithHostNet
containers:
- name: rook-ceph-tools
image: rook/ceph-toolbox:master
imagePullPolicy: IfNotPresent
env:
- name: ROOK_ADMIN_SECRET
valueFrom:
secretKeyRef:
name: rook-ceph-mon
key: admin-secret
securityContext:
privileged: true
volumeMounts:
- mountPath: /dev
name: dev
- mountPath: /sys/bus
name: sysbus
- mountPath: /lib/modules
name: libmodules
- name: mon-endpoint-volume
mountPath: /etc/rook
# if hostNetwork: false, the "rbd map" command hangs, see https://github.com/rook/rook/issues/2021
hostNetwork: true
volumes:
- name: dev
hostPath:
path: /dev
- name: sysbus
hostPath:
path: /sys/bus
- name: libmodules
hostPath:
path: /lib/modules
- name: mon-endpoint-volume
configMap:
name: rook-ceph-mon-endpoints
items:
- key: data
path: mon-endpoints
```
Launch the rook-ceph-tools pod:
```bash
kubectl create -f toolbox.yaml
```
Wait for the toolbox pod to download its container and get to the `running` state:
```bash
kubectl -n rook-ceph get pod -l "app=rook-ceph-tools"
```
Once the rook-ceph-tools pod is running, you can connect to it with:
```bash
kubectl -n rook-ceph exec -it $(kubectl -n rook-ceph get pod -l "app=rook-ceph-tools" -o jsonpath='{.items[0].metadata.name}') bash
```
All available tools in the toolbox are ready for your troubleshooting needs. Example:
```bash
ceph status
ceph osd status
ceph df
rados df
```
When you are done with the toolbox, remove the pod:
```bash
kubectl -n rook-ceph delete deployment rook-ceph-tools
```
## Troubleshooting without the Toolbox
The Ceph tools will commonly be the only tools needed to troubleshoot a cluster. In that case, you can connect to any of the rook pods and execute the ceph commands in the same way that you would in the toolbox pod such as the mon pods or the operator pod.
If connecting to the mon pods, make sure you connect to the mon most recently started. The mons keep the config updated in memory after starting and may not have the latest config on disk.
For example, after starting the cluster connect to the `mon2` pod instead of `mon0`.
