# Rook on Kubernetes
|
|
|
|
- [Quickstart](#quickstart)
|
|

|
|
|
|
## Quickstart
|
|
|
|
This example shows how to build a simple, multi-tier web application on Kubernetes using persistent volumes enabled by Rook.
|
|
|
|
### Minimum Version
|
|
|
|
Kubernetes **v1.6** or higher is targeted by Rook (while Rook is in alpha it will track the latest release to use the latest features).
|
|
|
|
Support is available for Kubernetes **v1.5.2**, although your mileage may vary.
|
|
You will need to use the yaml files from the [1.5 folder](/cluster/examples/kubernetes/1.5).
|
|
|
|
### Prerequisites
|
|
|
|
To make sure you have a Kubernetes cluster that is ready for `Rook`, you can [follow these quick instructions](k8s-pre-reqs.md).
|
|
|
|
If you are using `dataDirHostPath` to persist rook data on kubernetes hosts, make sure your host has at least 5GB of space available on the specified path.
|
|
|
|
### Deploy Rook
|
|
|
|
With your Kubernetes cluster running, Rook can be setup and deployed by simply creating the rook-operator deployment and creating a rook cluster. To customize the operator settings, see the [Rook Helm Chart](helm-operator.md).
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
cd cluster/examples/kubernetes
|
|
kubectl create -f rook-operator.yaml
|
|
|
|
# verify the rook-operator and rook-agents pods are in the `Running` state before proceeding
|
|
kubectl -n rook-system get pod
|
|
```
|
|
## RBAC for PodSecurityPolicies
|
|
|
|
If you have activated the [PodSecurityPolicy Admission Controller](https://kubernetes.io/docs/admin/admission-controllers/#podsecuritypolicy) and thus are
|
|
using [PodSecurityPolicies](https://kubernetes.io/docs/concepts/policy/pod-security-policy/), you will require additional `(Cluster)RoleBindings`
|
|
for the different `ServiceAccounts` Rook uses to start the Rook Storage Pods.
|
|
|
|
**Note**: You do not have to perform these steps if you do not have the `PodSecurityPolicy` Admission Controller activated!
|
|
|
|
##### PodSecurityPolicy
|
|
|
|
You need one `PodSecurityPolicy` that allows privileged `Pod` execution. Here is an example:
|
|
|
|
```yaml
|
|
apiVersion: extensions/v1beta1
|
|
kind: PodSecurityPolicy
|
|
metadata:
|
|
name: privileged
|
|
spec:
|
|
fsGroup:
|
|
rule: RunAsAny
|
|
privileged: true
|
|
runAsUser:
|
|
rule: RunAsAny
|
|
seLinux:
|
|
rule: RunAsAny
|
|
supplementalGroups:
|
|
rule: RunAsAny
|
|
volumes:
|
|
- '*'
|
|
allowedCapabilities:
|
|
- '*'
|
|
hostPID: true
|
|
hostIPC: true
|
|
hostNetwork: false
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
**Hint**: Allowing `hostNetwork` usage is required when using `hostNetwork: true` in the Cluster `CustomResourceDefinition`!
|
|
You are then also required to allow the usage of `hostPorts` in the `PodSecurityPolicy`. The given port range is a minimal
|
|
working recommendation for rook:
|
|
```yaml
|
|
hostPorts:
|
|
# CEPH ports
|
|
- min: 6789
|
|
max: 7300
|
|
# rook-api port
|
|
- min: 8124
|
|
max: 8124
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
##### ClusterRole and ClusterRoleBinding
|
|
|
|
Next up you require a `ClusterRole` and a corresponding `ClusterRoleBinding`, which enables the Rook Agent `ServiceAccount` to run the rook-agent `Pods` on all nodes
|
|
with privileged rights. Here are the definitions:
|
|
|
|
```yaml
|
|
# privilegedPSP grants access to use the privileged PSP.
|
|
apiVersion: rbac.authorization.k8s.io/v1
|
|
kind: ClusterRole
|
|
metadata:
|
|
name: privileged-psp-user
|
|
rules:
|
|
- apiGroups:
|
|
- extensions
|
|
resources:
|
|
- podsecuritypolicies
|
|
resourceNames:
|
|
- privileged
|
|
verbs:
|
|
- use
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
and
|
|
```yaml
|
|
# Allow the rook-agent serviceAccount to use the privileged PSP
|
|
apiVersion: rbac.authorization.k8s.io/v1
|
|
kind: ClusterRoleBinding
|
|
metadata:
|
|
name: rook-agent-psp
|
|
roleRef:
|
|
apiGroup: rbac.authorization.k8s.io
|
|
kind: ClusterRole
|
|
name: privileged-psp-user
|
|
subjects:
|
|
- kind: ServiceAccount
|
|
name: rook-agent
|
|
namespace: rook-system
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Save these definitions to one or multiple yaml files and create them by executing `kubectl apply -f <nameOfYourFile>.yaml`
|
|
|
|
You will also require two more `RoleBindings` for each Rook Cluster you deploy:
|
|
Create these two `RoleBindings` in the Namespace you plan to deploy your Rook Cluster into (default is "rook" namespace):
|
|
|
|
```yaml
|
|
# Allow the default serviceAccount to use the priviliged PSP
|
|
apiVersion: rbac.authorization.k8s.io/v1
|
|
kind: RoleBinding
|
|
metadata:
|
|
name: rook-default-psp
|
|
namespace: rook
|
|
roleRef:
|
|
apiGroup: rbac.authorization.k8s.io
|
|
kind: ClusterRole
|
|
name: privileged-psp-user
|
|
subjects:
|
|
- kind: ServiceAccount
|
|
name: default
|
|
namespace: rook
|
|
---
|
|
# Allow the rook-ceph-osd serviceAccount to use the priviliged PSP
|
|
apiVersion: rbac.authorization.k8s.io/v1
|
|
kind: RoleBinding
|
|
metadata:
|
|
name: rook-ceph-osd-psp
|
|
namespace: rook
|
|
roleRef:
|
|
apiGroup: rbac.authorization.k8s.io
|
|
kind: ClusterRole
|
|
name: privileged-psp-user
|
|
subjects:
|
|
- kind: ServiceAccount
|
|
name: rook-ceph-osd
|
|
namespace: rook
|
|
```
|
|
|

#### **Restart Kubelet**
|
|
**(K8S 1.7.x and older only)**
|
|
|
|
For versions of Kubernetes prior to 1.8, the Kubelet process on all nodes will require a restart after the Rook operator and Rook agents have been deployed. As part of their initial setup, the Rook agents deploy and configure a Flexvolume plugin in order to integrate with Kubernetes' volume controller framework. In Kubernetes v1.8+, the [dynamic Flexvolume plugin discovery](https://github.com/kubernetes/community/blob/master/contributors/devel/flexvolume.md#dynamic-plugin-discovery) will find and initialize our plugin, but in older versions of Kubernetes a manual restart of the Kubelet will be required.
|
|
|
|
#### **Disable Attacher-detacher controller**
|
|
**(K8S 1.6.x only)**
|
|
|
|
For Kubernetes 1.6, it is also necessary to pass the `--enable-controller-attach-detach=false` flag to Kubelet when you restart it. This is a workaround for a [Kubernetes issue](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/issues/47109) that only affects 1.6.
|
|
|
|
---
|
|
|
|
Now that the rook-operator pod is running, we can create the Rook cluster. For the cluster to survive reboots,
|
|
make sure you set the `dataDirHostPath` property. For more settings, see the documentation on [configuring the cluster](cluster-crd.md).
|
|
|
|
|
|
Save the cluster spec as `rook-cluster.yaml`:
|
|
|
|
```yaml
|
|
apiVersion: v1
|
|
kind: Namespace
|
|
metadata:
|
|
name: rook
|
|
---
|
|
apiVersion: rook.io/v1alpha1
|
|
kind: Cluster
|
|
metadata:
|
|
name: rook
|
|
namespace: rook
|
|
spec:
|
|
dataDirHostPath: /var/lib/rook
|
|
storage:
|
|
useAllNodes: true
|
|
useAllDevices: false
|
|
storeConfig:
|
|
storeType: bluestore
|
|
databaseSizeMB: 1024
|
|
journalSizeMB: 1024
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Create the cluster:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
kubectl create -f rook-cluster.yaml
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Use `kubectl` to list pods in the `rook` namespace. You should be able to see the following pods once they are all running:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
$ kubectl -n rook get pod
|
|
NAME READY STATUS RESTARTS AGE
|
|
rook-api-1511082791-7qs0m 1/1 Running 0 5m
|
|
rook-ceph-mgr0-1279756402-wc4vt 1/1 Running 0 5m
|
|
rook-ceph-mon0-jflt5 1/1 Running 0 6m
|
|
rook-ceph-mon1-wkc8p 1/1 Running 0 6m
|
|
rook-ceph-mon2-p31dj 1/1 Running 0 6m
|
|
rook-ceph-osd-0h6nb 1/1 Running 0 5m
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Storage
|
|
|
|
For a walkthrough of the three types of storage exposed by Rook, see the guides for:
|
|
- **[Block](k8s-block.md)**: Create block storage to be consumed by a pod
|
|
- **[Shared File System](k8s-filesystem.md)**: Create a file system to be shared across multiple pods
|
|
- **[Object](k8s-object.md)**: Create an object store that is accessible inside or outside the Kubernetes cluster
|
|
|
|
## Tools
|
|
|
|
We have created a toolbox container that contains the full suite of Ceph clients for debugging and troubleshooting your Rook cluster. Please see the [toolbox readme](toolbox.md) for setup and usage information. Also see our [advanced configuration](advanced-configuration.md) document for helpful maintenance and tuning examples.
|
|
|
|
The toolbox also contains the `rookctl` tool as required in the [File System](k8s-filesystem.md) and [Object](k8s-object.md) walkthroughs, or a [simplified walkthrough of block, file and object storage](client.md). In the near future, `rookctl` will not be required for kubernetes scenarios.
|
|
|
|
### Monitoring
|
|
|
|
Each Rook cluster has some built in metrics collectors/exporters for monitoring with [Prometheus](https://prometheus.io/).
|
|
To learn how to set up monitoring for your Rook cluster, you can follow the steps in the [monitoring guide](./k8s-monitoring.md).
|
|
|
|
## Teardown
|
|
|
|
To clean up all the artifacts created by the demo, first cleanup the resources from the [block](k8s-block.md#teardown) and [file](k8s-filesystem.md#teardown) walkthroughs (unmount volumes, delete volume claims, etc).
|
|
Those steps have been copied below for convenience, but note that some of these may not exist if you did not complete those parts of the demo:
|
|
```console
|
|
kubectl delete -f wordpress.yaml
|
|
kubectl delete -f mysql.yaml
|
|
kubectl delete -n rook pool replicapool
|
|
kubectl delete storageclass rook-block
|
|
kubectl -n kube-system delete secret rook-admin
|
|
kubectl delete -f kube-registry.yaml
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
After those resources have been cleaned up, you can then delete your Rook cluster:
|
|
```console
|
|
kubectl delete -n rook cluster rook
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
This will begin the process of all cluster resources being cleaned up, after which you can delete the rest of the deployment with the following:
|
|
```console
|
|
kubectl delete thirdpartyresources cluster.rook.io pool.rook.io objectstore.rook.io filesystem.rook.io volumeattachment.rook.io # ignore errors if on K8s 1.7+
|
|
kubectl delete crd clusters.rook.io pools.rook.io objectstores.rook.io filesystems.rook.io volumeattachments.rook.io # ignore errors if on K8s 1.5 and 1.6
|
|
kubectl delete -n rook-system daemonset rook-agent
|
|
kubectl delete -f rook-operator.yaml
|
|
kubectl delete clusterroles rook-agent
|
|
kubectl delete clusterrolebindings rook-agent
|
|
kubectl delete namespace rook
|
|
```
|
|
If you modified the demo settings, additional cleanup is up to you for devices, host paths, etc.
|
|
|
|
## Design
|
|
|
|
Rook enables storage software systems to run on Kubernetes using Kubernetes primitives. Although Rook's reference storage system is Ceph, support for other storage systems can be added. The following image illustrates how Rook integrates with Kubernetes:
|
|
|
|

|
|
With Rook running in the Kubernetes cluster, Kubernetes applications can
|
|
mount block devices and filesystems managed by Rook, or can use the S3/Swift API for object storage. The Rook operator
|
|
automates configuration of storage components and monitors the cluster to ensure the storage remains available
|
|
and healthy. There is also a REST API service for configuring the Rook storage and a command line tool called `rookctl`.
|
|
|
|
The Rook operator is a simple container that has all that is needed to bootstrap
|
|
and monitor the storage cluster. The operator will start and monitor [ceph monitor pods](https://github.com/rook/rook/blob/master/design/mon-health.md) and a daemonset for the OSDs, which provides basic
|
|
RADOS storage as well as a deployment for a RESTful API service. When requested through the api service,
|
|
object storage (S3/Swift) is enabled by starting a deployment for RGW, while a shared file system is enabled with a deployment for MDS.
|
|
|
|
The operator will monitor the storage daemons to ensure the cluster is healthy. Ceph mons will be started or failed over when necessary, and
|
|
other adjustments are made as the cluster grows or shrinks. The operator will also watch for desired state changes
|
|
requested by the api service and apply the changes.
|
|
|
|
Rook operator also creates the Rook agents. These agents are pods deployed on every Kubernetes node. Each agent configures a Flexvolume plugin that integrates with Kubernetes' volume controller framework and also handle all storage operations required on the node, such as attaching network storage devices, mounting volumes and formating filesystem.
|
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
The Rook daemons (Mons, OSDs, MGR, RGW, and MDS) are compiled to a single binary `rook`, and included in a minimal container.
|
|
The `rook` container includes Ceph daemons and tools to manage and store all data -- there are no changes to the data path.
|
|
Rook does not attempt to maintain full fidelity with Ceph. Many of the Ceph concepts like placement groups and crush maps
|
|
are hidden so you don't have to worry about them. Instead Rook creates a much simplified UX for admins that is in terms
|
|
of physical resources, pools, volumes, filesystems, and buckets.
|
|
|
|
Rook is implemented in golang. Ceph is implemented in C++ where the data path is highly optimized. We believe
|
|
this combination offers the best of both worlds.
