Blaine Gardner 1391228b1d ci: use markdownlint to enforce mkdocs compatibility
mkdocs uses a markdown renderer that is hardcoded to 4 spaces per tab
for detecting indentation levels, including ordered- and
unordered-lists. Since we cannot easily change the renderer, begin using
a markdown linter in CI that will fail if official docs do not adhere to
the spacing rules.

As a starting point, the markdownlint config does not begin with the
default set of checks, which might overwhelm attempts to fix them.
Instead, focus on list-tab-spacing rules and a few other highly useful
checks.

markdownlint also has some gaps in its abilities that allow common Rook
doc issues to pass acceptance. However, it allows creating custom
linting plugins. Create 2 such linting plugins to check 2 things:

- all doc lines (except code blocks) must be aligned to a 4-space
  boundary, without exception. This ensures that markdown will render
  correctly with mkdocs. This unfortunately makes it possible to create
  lists that are internally aligned strangely.
- admonitions must all follow the same format of
  ```
  !!! header
      body
  ```

For the strange lists, this is allowed and renders correctly, but it
looks strange:

```md
- first bullet
- second bullet
    still second bullet
- third bullet

    has a paragraph
    of text inside

- last bullet

Health Verification

Rook and Ceph upgrades are designed to ensure data remains available even while the upgrade is proceeding. Rook will perform the upgrades in a rolling fashion such that application pods are not disrupted. To ensure the upgrades are seamless, it is important to begin the upgrades with Ceph in a fully healthy state. This guide reviews ways of verifying the health of a CephCluster.

See the troubleshooting documentation for any issues during upgrades:

Pods all Running

In a healthy Rook cluster, all pods in the Rook namespace should be in the Running (or Completed) state and have few, if any, pod restarts.

ROOK_CLUSTER_NAMESPACE=rook-ceph
kubectl -n $ROOK_CLUSTER_NAMESPACE get pods

Status Output

The Rook toolbox contains the Ceph tools that gives status details of the cluster with the ceph status command. Below is an output sample:

TOOLS_POD=$(kubectl -n $ROOK_CLUSTER_NAMESPACE get pod -l "app=rook-ceph-tools" -o jsonpath='{.items[*].metadata.name}')
kubectl -n $ROOK_CLUSTER_NAMESPACE exec -it $TOOLS_POD -- ceph status

The output should look similar to the following:

  cluster:
    id:     a3f4d647-9538-4aff-9fd1-b845873c3fe9
    health: HEALTH_OK

  services:
    mon: 3 daemons, quorum b,c,a
    mgr: a(active)
    mds: myfs-1/1/1 up  {0=myfs-a=up:active}, 1 up:standby-replay
    osd: 6 osds: 6 up, 6 in
    rgw: 1 daemon active

  data:
    pools:   9 pools, 900 pgs
    objects: 67  objects, 11 KiB
    usage:   6.1 GiB used, 54 GiB / 60 GiB avail
    pgs:     900 active+clean

  io:
    client:   7.4 KiB/s rd, 681 B/s wr, 11 op/s rd, 4 op/s wr
    recovery: 164 B/s, 1 objects/s

In the output above, note the following indications that the cluster is in a healthy state:

  • Cluster health: The overall cluster status is HEALTH_OK and there are no warning or error status messages displayed.
  • Monitors (mon): All of the monitors are included in the quorum list.
  • Manager (mgr): The Ceph manager is in the active state.
  • OSDs (osd): All OSDs are up and in.
  • Placement groups (pgs): All PGs are in the active+clean state.
  • (If applicable) Ceph filesystem metadata server (mds): all MDSes are active for all filesystems
  • (If applicable) Ceph object store RADOS gateways (rgw): all daemons are active

If the ceph status output has deviations from the general good health described above, there may be an issue that needs to be investigated further. Other commands may show more relevant details on the health of the system, such as ceph osd status. See the Ceph troubleshooting docs for help.

Upgrading an unhealthy cluster

Rook will not upgrade Ceph daemons if the health is in a HEALTH_ERR state. Rook can be configured to proceed with the (potentially unsafe) upgrade by setting either skipUpgradeChecks: true or continueUpgradeAfterChecksEvenIfNotHealthy: true as described in the cluster CR settings.

Container Versions

The container version running in a specific pod in the Rook cluster can be verified in its pod spec output. For example, for the monitor pod mon-b, verify the container version it is running with the below commands:

POD_NAME=$(kubectl -n $ROOK_CLUSTER_NAMESPACE get pod -o custom-columns=name:.metadata.name --no-headers | grep rook-ceph-mon-b)
kubectl -n $ROOK_CLUSTER_NAMESPACE get pod ${POD_NAME} -o jsonpath='{.spec.containers[0].image}'

The status and container versions for all Rook pods can be collected all at once with the following commands:

kubectl -n $ROOK_OPERATOR_NAMESPACE get pod -o jsonpath='{range .items[*]}{.metadata.name}{"\n\t"}{.status.phase}{"\t\t"}{.spec.containers[0].image}{"\t"}{.spec.initContainers[0]}{"\n"}{end}' && \
kubectl -n $ROOK_CLUSTER_NAMESPACE get pod -o jsonpath='{range .items[*]}{.metadata.name}{"\n\t"}{.status.phase}{"\t\t"}{.spec.containers[0].image}{"\t"}{.spec.initContainers[0].image}{"\n"}{end}'

The rook-version label exists on Ceph resources. For various resource controllers, a summary of the resource controllers can be gained with the commands below. These will report the requested, updated, and currently available replicas for various Rook resources in addition to the version of Rook for resources managed by Rook. Note that the operator and toolbox deployments do not have a rook-version label set.

kubectl -n $ROOK_CLUSTER_NAMESPACE get deployments -o jsonpath='{range .items[*]}{.metadata.name}{"  \treq/upd/avl: "}{.spec.replicas}{"/"}{.status.updatedReplicas}{"/"}{.status.readyReplicas}{"  \trook-version="}{.metadata.labels.rook-version}{"\n"}{end}'

kubectl -n $ROOK_CLUSTER_NAMESPACE get jobs -o jsonpath='{range .items[*]}{.metadata.name}{"  \tsucceeded: "}{.status.succeeded}{"      \trook-version="}{.metadata.labels.rook-version}{"\n"}{end}'

Rook Volume Health

Any pod that is using a Rook volume should also remain healthy:

  • The pod should be in the Running state with few, if any, restarts
  • There should be no errors in its logs
  • The pod should still be able to read and write to the attached Rook volume.
