A.3. Setting up the Heketi Server


After deploying the containers and installing the templates, the system is now ready to load the Heketi topology file. Heketi provides a RESTful management interface which can be used to manage the lifecycle of Red Hat Gluster Storage volumes.
A sample, formatted topology file (topology-sample.json) is installed with the ‘heketi-templates’ package in the /usr/share/heketi/ directory.

    "clusters": [
               {
                  "nodes": [
                                {
                        "node": {
                            "hostnames": {
                                "manage": [
                                    "node1.example.com"
                                ],
                                "storage": [
                                    "192.168.121.168"
                                 ]
                             },
                             "zone": 1
                         },
                         "devices": [
                             "/dev/sdb",
                             "/dev/sdc",
                             "/dev/sdd",
                             "/dev/sde"
                         ]
               },...

Edit the topology file based on the Red Hat Gluster Storage pod hostname under the node.hostnames.manage section and node.hostnames.storage section with the IP address. For simplicity, the /usr/share/heketi/topology-sample.json file only sets up 4 nodes with 8 drives each.

Important

Heketi stores its database on a Red Hat Gluster Storage volume. Heketi service does not respond if the volume is down.
To resolve this issue, restart the gluster pods hosting the Heketi volume.
Execute the following steps to set up the Heketi server:
  1. Execute the following command to check if the bootstrap container is running:
    # curl http://deploy-heketi-<project_name>.<sub-domain_name>/hello
    Copy to Clipboard Toggle word wrap
    For example:
    # curl http://deploy-heketi-storage-project.cloudapps.mystorage.com/hello
    Hello from Heketi

  2. Execute the following command to load the topology file:
    # export  HEKETI_CLI_SERVER=http://deploy-heketi-<project_name>.<sub_domain_name>
    Copy to Clipboard Toggle word wrap
    For example:
    # export HEKETI_CLI_SERVER=http://deploy-heketi-storage-project.cloudapps.mystorage.com
    Copy to Clipboard Toggle word wrap
    # heketi-cli topology load --json=topology.json
    Copy to Clipboard Toggle word wrap
    For example:
    # heketi-cli topology load --json=topology.json

  3. Execute the following command to verify that the topology is loaded:
    # heketi-cli topology info
    Copy to Clipboard Toggle word wrap
  4. Execute the following command to create the Heketi storage volume which will store the database on a reliable Red Hat Gluster Storage volume:
    # heketi-cli setup-openshift-heketi-storage
    Copy to Clipboard Toggle word wrap
    For example:
    # heketi-cli setup-openshift-heketi-storage
    Saving heketi-storage.json
    Copy to Clipboard Toggle word wrap
  5. Execute the following command to create a job which will copy the database from deploy-heketi bootstrap container to the volume.
    # oc create -f heketi-storage.json
    Copy to Clipboard Toggle word wrap
    For example:
    # oc create -f heketi-storage.json
    secret "heketi-storage-secret" created
    endpoints "heketi-storage-endpoints" created
    service "heketi-storage-endpoints" created
    job "heketi-storage-copy-job" created
    Copy to Clipboard Toggle word wrap
  6. Execute the following command to verify that the job has finished successfully:
    # oc get jobs
    Copy to Clipboard Toggle word wrap
    For example:
    # oc get jobs
    NAME                      DESIRED   SUCCESSFUL   AGE
    heketi-storage-copy-job   1            1               2m

  7. Execute the following command to remove all resources used to bootstrap heketi:
    # oc delete all,job,template,secret --selector="deploy-heketi"
    Copy to Clipboard Toggle word wrap

    # oc delete all,job,template,secret --selector="deploy-heketi"

    service "deploy-heketi" deleted
    pod "deploy-heketi-1-4k1fh" deleted
    job "heketi-storage-copy-job" deleted
    template "deploy-heketi" deleted
    
    Copy to Clipboard Toggle word wrap
  8. Execute the following command to deploy the Heketi service which will be used to create persistent volumes for OpenShift:
    # oc process heketi | oc create -f -
    Copy to Clipboard Toggle word wrap
    For example:
    # oc process heketi | oc create -f -
    service "heketi" created
    route "heketi" created
    deploymentconfig "heketi" created
    Copy to Clipboard Toggle word wrap
  9. Execute the following command to let the client communicate with the container:
