8.2. In-Service Software Upgrade from Red Hat Gluster Storage 3.1 to Red Hat Gluster Storage 3.2

Important

Update all Red Hat Gluster Storage servers before updating clients.
In-service software upgrade refers to the ability to progressively update a Red Hat Gluster Storage Server cluster with a new version of the software without taking the volumes hosted on the cluster offline. In most cases normal I/O operations on the volume can continue even when the cluster is being updated under most circumstances. This method of updating the storage cluster is only supported for replicated and distributed-replicated volumes.

8.2.1. Pre-upgrade Tasks

Ensure you perform the following steps based on the set-up before proceeding with the in-service software upgrade process.

8.2.1.1. Upgrade Requirements for Red Hat Gluster Storage 3.2

The following are the upgrade requirements to upgrade to Red Hat Gluster Storage 3.2 from the preceding update:
  • In-service software upgrade is supported only for nodes with replicate and distributed replicate volumes.
  • If you want to use snapshots for your existing environment, each brick must be an independent thinly provisioned logical volume (LV). If you do not plan to use snapshots, thickly provisioned volumes remain supported.
  • A Logical Volume that contains a brick must not be used for any other purpose.
  • Only linear LVM is supported with Red Hat Gluster Storage 3.2. For more information, see https://access.redhat.com/site/documentation/en-US/Red_Hat_Enterprise_Linux/4/html-single/Cluster_Logical_Volume_Manager/#lv_overview
  • When server-side quorum is enabled, ensure that bringing one node down does not violate server-side quorum. Add dummy peers to ensure the server-side quorum will not be violated until the completion of rolling upgrade using the following command:
    Copy to Clipboard Toggle word wrap 
    # gluster peer probe dummynode

    Note

    If you have a geo-replication session, then to add a node follow the steps mentioned in the sectionStarting Geo-replication for a New Brick or New Node in the Red Hat Gluster Storage Administration Guide.
    For example, when the server-side quorum percentage is set to the default value (>50%), for a plain replicate volume with two nodes and one brick on each machine, a dummy node that does not contain any bricks must be added to the trusted storage pool to provide high availability of the volume using the command mentioned above.
    In a three node cluster, if the server-side quorum percentage is set to 77%, bringing down one node would violate the server-side quorum. In this scenario, you have to add two dummy nodes to meet server-side quorum.
  • For replica 2 volumes, disable client-side quorum. This is not recommended for replica 3 volumes, as it increases the risk of split brain conditions developing.
    Copy to Clipboard Toggle word wrap 
    # gluster volume reset <vol-name> cluster.quorum-type
  • Stop any geo-replication sessions running between the master and slave.
    Copy to Clipboard Toggle word wrap 
    # gluster volume geo-replication MASTER_VOL SLAVE_HOST::SLAVE_VOL stop
  • Ensure that there are no pending self-heals before proceeding with in-service software upgrade using the following command:
    Copy to Clipboard Toggle word wrap 
    # gluster volume heal volname info
  • Ensure the Red Hat Gluster Storage server is registered to the required channels.
    On Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6:
    Copy to Clipboard Toggle word wrap 
    rhel-x86_64-server-6
rhel-x86_64-server-6-rhs-3
rhel-x86_64-server-sfs-6
    On Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7:
    Copy to Clipboard Toggle word wrap 
    rhel-x86_64-server-7
rhel-x86_64-server-7-rhs-3
rhel-x86_64-server-sfs-7
    To subscribe to the channels, run the following command:
    Copy to Clipboard Toggle word wrap 
    # rhn-channel --add --channel=<channel>

8.2.1.2. Restrictions for In-Service Software Upgrade

The following lists some of the restrictions for in-service software upgrade:
  • Do not perform in-service software upgrade when the I/O or load is high on the Red Hat Gluster Storage server.
  • Do not perform any volume operations on the Red Hat Gluster Storage server.
  • Do not change hardware configurations.
  • Do not run mixed versions of Red Hat Gluster Storage for an extended period of time. For example, do not have a mixed environment of Red Hat Gluster Storage 3.1 and Red Hat Gluster Storage 3.2 for a prolonged time.
  • Do not combine different upgrade methods.
  • It is not recommended to use in-service software upgrade for migrating to thinly provisioned volumes, but to use offline upgrade scenario instead. For more information see, Section 8.1, “Offline Upgrade from Red Hat Gluster Storage 3.1 to 3.2 ”

8.2.1.3. Configuring repo for Upgrading using ISO

To configure the repo to upgrade using ISO, execute the following steps:

Note

Upgrading Red Hat Gluster Storage using ISO can be performed only from the immediately preceding release. This means that upgrading to Red Hat Gluster Storage 3.2 using ISO can only be done from Red Hat Gluster Storage 3.1 Update 3. For a complete list of supported Red Hat Gluster Storage releases, see Section 1.5, “Supported Versions of Red Hat Gluster Storage”.
  1. Mount the ISO image file under any directory using the following command:
    Copy to Clipboard Toggle word wrap 
    mount -o loop <ISO image file> <mount-point>
    For example:
    Copy to Clipboard Toggle word wrap 
    mount -o loop RHGS-3.2-20170209.0-RHS-x86_64-dvd1.iso /mnt
  2. Set the repo options in a file in the following location:
    Copy to Clipboard Toggle word wrap 
     /etc/yum.repos.d/<file_name.repo>
  3. Add the following information to the repo file:
    Copy to Clipboard Toggle word wrap 
    [local]
name=local
baseurl=file:///mnt
enabled=1
gpgcheck=0

8.2.1.4. Preparing and Monitoring the Upgrade Activity

Before proceeding with the in-service software upgrade, prepare and monitor the following processes:
  • Check the peer and volume status to ensure that all peers are connected and there are no active volume tasks.
    Copy to Clipboard Toggle word wrap 
    # gluster peer status
     Copy to Clipboard Toggle word wrap 
    # gluster volume status
  • Check the rebalance status using the following command:
    Copy to Clipboard Toggle word wrap 
    # gluster volume rebalance r2 status
Node   Rebalanced-files  size      scanned   failures    skipped   status   run time in secs
---------   -----------    ---------   --------   ---------  ------  --------  --------------
10.70.43.198         0       0Bytes       99       0           0    completed     1.00
10.70.43.148         49      196Bytes    100       0           0    completed     3.00
  • Ensure that there are no pending self-heals before proceeding with in-service software upgrade using the following command:
    Copy to Clipboard Toggle word wrap 
    # gluster volume heal volname info
    The following example shows no pending self-heals.
    Copy to Clipboard Toggle word wrap 
    # gluster volume heal drvol info
Gathering list of entries to be healed on volume drvol has been successful

Brick 10.70.37.51:/rhs/brick1/dir1
Number of entries: 0

Brick 10.70.37.78:/rhs/brick1/dir1
Number of entries: 0

Brick 10.70.37.51:/rhs/brick2/dir2
Number of entries: 0

Brick 10.70.37.78:/rhs/brick2/dir2
Number of entries: 0

8.2.2. Service Impact of In-Service Upgrade

In-service software upgrade will impact the following services. Ensure you take the required precautionary measures.
SWIFT

ReST requests that are in transition will fail during in-service software upgrade. Hence it is recommended to stop all swift services before in-service software upgrade using the following commands:

Copy to Clipboard Toggle word wrap 
# service openstack-swift-proxy stop
# service openstack-swift-account stop
# service openstack-swift-container stop
# service openstack-swift-object stop
NFS

When you NFS mount a volume, any new or outstanding file operations on that file system will hang uninterruptedly during in-service software upgrade until the server is upgraded.

Samba / CTDB

Ongoing I/O on Samba shares will fail as the Samba shares will be temporarily unavailable during the in-service software upgrade, hence it is recommended to stop the Samba service using the following command:

Copy to Clipboard Toggle word wrap 
# service ctdb stop   ;Stopping CTDB will also stop the SMB service.

Distribute Volume

In-service software upgrade is not supported for distributed volume. If you have a distributed volume in the cluster, stop that volume for the duration of the upgrade.

Copy to Clipboard Toggle word wrap 
# gluster volume stop <VOLNAME>
Virtual Machine Store

The virtual machine images are likely to be modified constantly. The virtual machine listed in the output of the volume heal command does not imply that the self-heal of the virtual machine is incomplete. It could mean that the modifications on the virtual machine are happening constantly.

Hence, if you are using a gluster volume for storing virtual machine images (Red Hat Enterprise Linux, Red Hat Enterprise Virtualization and Red Hat OpenStack), then it is recommended to power-off all virtual machine instances before in-service software upgrade.

8.2.3. In-Service Software Upgrade

The following steps have to be performed on each node of the replica pair:
  1. Back up the following configuration directory and files in a location that is not on the operating system partition.
    /var/lib/glusterd, /etc/swift, /etc/samba, /etc/ctdb, /etc/glusterfs, /var/lib/samba, /var/lib/ctdb Copy to Clipboard Toggle word wrap 
    # cp -a /var/lib/glusterd /backup-disk/
# cp -a /etc/swift /backup-disk/
# cp -a /etc/samba /backup-disk/
# cp -a /etc/ctdb /backup-disk/
# cp -a /etc/glusterfs /backup-disk/
# cp -a /var/lib/samba /backup-disk/
# cp -a /var/lib/ctdb /backup-disk/

    Note

  2. Ensure that there are no pending self-heals before proceeding with in-service software upgrade using the following command:
    Copy to Clipboard Toggle word wrap 
    # gluster volume heal volname info
  3. Stop the gluster services on the storage server using the following commands:
    Copy to Clipboard Toggle word wrap 
    # service glusterd stop
# pkill glusterfs
# pkill glusterfsd
  4. Verify that your system is not using the legacy Red Hat Classic update software.
    Copy to Clipboard Toggle word wrap 
    # migrate-rhs-classic-to-rhsm --status
    If your system uses this legacy software, migrate to Red Hat Subscription Manager and verify that your status has changed when migration is complete.
    Copy to Clipboard Toggle word wrap 
    # migrate-rhs-classic-to-rhsm --rhn-to-rhsm
     Copy to Clipboard Toggle word wrap 
    # migrate-rhs-classic-to-rhsm --status
  5. Update the server using the following command:
    Copy to Clipboard Toggle word wrap 
    # yum update
  6. If the volumes are thickly provisioned, and you plan to use snapshots, perform the following steps to migrate to thinly provisioned volumes:

    Note

    Migrating from thickly provisioned volume to thinly provisioned volume during in-service software upgrade takes a significant amount of time based on the data you have in the bricks. If you do not plan to use snapshots, you can skip this step. However, if you plan to use snapshots on your existing environment, the offline method to upgrade is recommended. For more information regarding offline upgrade, see Section 8.1, “Offline Upgrade from Red Hat Gluster Storage 3.1 to 3.2 ”
    Contact a Red Hat Support representative before migrating from thickly provisioned volumes to thinly provisioned volumes using in-service software upgrade.
    1. Unmount all the bricks associated with the volume by executing the following command:
      Copy to Clipboard Toggle word wrap 
      # umount mount_point
    2. Remove the LVM associated with the brick by executing the following command:
      Copy to Clipboard Toggle word wrap 
      # lvremove logical_volume_name
      For example:
      Copy to Clipboard Toggle word wrap 
      # lvremove /dev/RHS_vg/brick1
    3. Remove the volume group by executing the following command:
      Copy to Clipboard Toggle word wrap 
      # vgremove -ff volume_group_name
      For example:
      Copy to Clipboard Toggle word wrap 
      vgremove -ff RHS_vg
    4. Remove the physical volume by executing the following command: Copy to Clipboard Toggle word wrap 
      # pvremove -ff physical_volume
    5. If the physical volume (PV) not created then create the PV for a RAID 6 volume by executing the following command, else proceed with the next step:
      Copy to Clipboard Toggle word wrap 
      # pvcreate --dataalignment 2560K /dev/vdb
      For more information, see the Red Hat Gluster Storage 3.2 Administration Guide: https://access.redhat.com/documentation/en-us/red_hat_gluster_storage/3.2/html-single/administration_guide/#Formatting_and_Mounting_Bricks.
    6. Create a single volume group from the PV by executing the following command:
      Copy to Clipboard Toggle word wrap 
      # vgcreate volume_group_name disk
      For example:
      Copy to Clipboard Toggle word wrap 
      vgcreate RHS_vg /dev/vdb
    7. Create a thinpool using the following command:
      Copy to Clipboard Toggle word wrap 
      # lvcreate -L size --poolmetadatasize md size --chunksize chunk size -T pool device
      For example:
      Copy to Clipboard Toggle word wrap 
      lvcreate -L 2T --poolmetadatasize 16G --chunksize 256  -T /dev/RHS_vg/thin_pool
    8. Create a thin volume from the pool by executing the following command:
      Copy to Clipboard Toggle word wrap 
      # lvcreate -V size -T pool device -n thinp
      For example:
      Copy to Clipboard Toggle word wrap 
      lvcreate -V 1.5T -T /dev/RHS_vg/thin_pool -n thin_vol
    9. Create filesystem in the new volume by executing the following command:
      Copy to Clipboard Toggle word wrap 
      mkfs.xfs -i size=512 thin pool device
      For example:
      Copy to Clipboard Toggle word wrap 
      mkfs.xfs -i size=512 /dev/RHS_vg/thin_vol
      The back-end is now converted to a thinly provisioned volume.
    10. Mount the thinly provisioned volume to the brick directory and setup the extended attributes on the bricks. For example:
      Copy to Clipboard Toggle word wrap 
      # setfattr -n trusted.glusterfs.volume-id \ -v 0x$(grep volume-id /var/lib/glusterd/vols/volname/info \ | cut -d= -f2 | sed 's/-//g') $brick
  7. To ensure Red Hat Gluster Storage Server node is healthy after reboot and so that it can then be joined back to the cluster, it is recommended that you disable glusterd during boot using the following command:
    Copy to Clipboard Toggle word wrap 
    # chkconfig glusterd off
  8. Reboot the server.
  9. Perform the following operations to change the Automatic File Replication extended attributes so that the heal process happens from a brick in the replica subvolume to the thin provisioned brick.
    1. Create a FUSE mount point from any server to edit the extended attributes. Using the NFS and CIFS mount points, you will not be able to edit the extended attributes.
      Note that /mnt/r2 is the FUSE mount path.
    2. Create a new directory on the mount point and ensure that a directory with such a name is not already present.
      Copy to Clipboard Toggle word wrap 
      # mkdir /mnt/r2/name-of-nonexistent-dir
    3. Delete the directory and set the extended attributes. Copy to Clipboard Toggle word wrap 
      # rmdir /mnt/r2/name-of-nonexistent-dir
       Copy to Clipboard Toggle word wrap 
      # setfattr -n trusted.non-existent-key -v abc /mnt/r2
# setfattr -x trusted.non-existent-key /mnt/r2
    4. Ensure that the extended attributes of the brick in the replica subvolume(In this example, brick: /dev/RHS_vg/brick2 , extended attribute: trusted.afr.r2-client-1), is not set to zero.
      Copy to Clipboard Toggle word wrap 
      # getfattr -d -m. -e hex /dev/RHS_vg/brick2 # file: /dev/RHS_vg/brick2
security.selinux=0x756e636f6e66696e65645f753a6f626a6563745f723a66696c655f743a733000

trusted.glusterfs.volume-id=0xde822e25ebd049ea83bfaa3c4be2b440
  10. Start the glusterd service using the following command:
    Copy to Clipboard Toggle word wrap 
    # service glusterd start
  11. To automatically start the glusterd daemon every time the system boots, run the following command:
    Copy to Clipboard Toggle word wrap 
    # chkconfig glusterd on
  12. To verify if you have upgraded to the latest version of the Red Hat Gluster Storage server execute the following command:
    Copy to Clipboard Toggle word wrap 
    # gluster --version
  13. Ensure that all the bricks are online. To check the status execute the following command:
    Copy to Clipboard Toggle word wrap 
    # gluster volume status
    For example:
    Copy to Clipboard Toggle word wrap 
    # gluster volume status
Status of volume: r2

  16. Repeat the above steps on the other node of the replica pair.

    Note

    In the case of a distributed-replicate setup, repeat the above steps on all the replica pairs.
  17. When all nodes have been upgraded, run the following command to update the op-version of the cluster. This helps to prevent any compatibility issues within the cluster.
    Copy to Clipboard Toggle word wrap 
    # gluster volume set all cluster.op-version 31001

    Note

    31001 is the cluster.op-version value for Red Hat Gluster Storage 3.2.0. Refer to Section 1.5, “Supported Versions of Red Hat Gluster Storage” for the correct cluster.op-version value for other versions.

    Note

    If you want to enable snapshots, see the Red Hat Gluster Storage 3.2 Administration Guide: https://access.redhat.com/documentation/en-us/red_hat_gluster_storage/3.2/html-single/administration_guide/#Troubleshooting1.
  18. If the client-side quorum was disabled before upgrade, then upgrade it by executing the following command: Copy to Clipboard Toggle word wrap

  19. If a dummy node was created earlier, then detatch it by executing the following command:
    Copy to Clipboard Toggle word wrap 
    # gluster peer detatch <dummy_node name>
  20. If the geo-replication session between master and slave was disabled before upgrade, then configure the meta volume and restart the session: Copy to Clipboard Toggle word wrap 
    # gluster volume set all cluster.enable-shared-storage enable
     Copy to Clipboard Toggle word wrap 
    # gluster volume geo-replication Volume1 example.com::slave-vol config use_meta_volume true
     Copy to Clipboard Toggle word wrap 
    # gluster volume geo-replication MASTER_VOL SLAVE_HOST::SLAVE_VOL start

8.2.4. Special Consideration for In-Service Software Upgrade

The following sections describe the in-service software upgrade steps for a CTDB setup.

8.2.4.1. In-Service Software Upgrade for a CTDB Setup

Before you upgrade the CTDB packages, ensure you upgrade the Red Hat Gluster Storage server by following these steps. The following steps have to be performed on each node of the replica pair.
  1. To ensure that the CTDB does not start automatically after a reboot run the following command on each node of the CTDB cluster:
    Copy to Clipboard Toggle word wrap 
    # chkconfig ctdb off
  2. Stop the CTDB service on the Red Hat Gluster Storage node using the following command on each node of the CTDB cluster:
    Copy to Clipboard Toggle word wrap 
    # service ctdb stop
    1. To verify if the CTDB and SMB services are stopped, execute the following command: Copy to Clipboard Toggle word wrap 
      ps axf | grep -E '(ctdb|smb|winbind|nmb)[d]'
  3. Stop the gluster services on the storage server using the following commands:
    Copy to Clipboard Toggle word wrap 
    # service glusterd stop
# pkill glusterfs
# pkill glusterfsd
  4. In /etc/fstab, comment out the line containing the volume used for CTDB service as shown in the following example:
    Copy to Clipboard Toggle word wrap 
    # HostName:/volname  /gluster/lock glusterfs defaults,transport=tcp 0 0
  5. Update the server using the following command:
    Copy to Clipboard Toggle word wrap 
    # yum update
  6. If SELinux support is required, then enable SELinux by following the steps mentioned in, Chapter 10, Enabling SELinux
  7. After SELinux is enabled, set the following boolean:
    For Samba

    setsebool -P samba_load_libgfapi 1

    For CTDB

    setsebool -P use_fusefs_home_dirs 1

  8. To ensure the glusterd service does not start automatically after reboot, execute the following command:
    Copy to Clipboard Toggle word wrap 
    # chkconfig glusterd off
  9. Reboot the server.
  10. Update the META=all with the gluster volume information in the following scripts:
    Copy to Clipboard Toggle word wrap 
    /var/lib/glusterd/hooks/1/start/post/S29CTDBsetup.sh /var/lib/glusterd/hooks/1/stop/pre/S29CTDB-teardown.sh
  11. In /etc/fstab, uncomment the line containing the volume used for CTDB service as shown in the following example:
    Copy to Clipboard Toggle word wrap 
    HostName:/volname /gluster/lock glusterfs defaults,transport=tcp 0 0
  12. To automatically start the glusterd daemon every time the system boots, run the following command:
    Copy to Clipboard Toggle word wrap 
    # chkconfig glusterd on
  13. To automatically start the ctdb daemon every time the system boots, run the following command:
    Copy to Clipboard Toggle word wrap 
    # chkconfig ctdb on
  14. Start the glusterd service using the following command:
    Copy to Clipboard Toggle word wrap 
    # service glusterd start
  15. If using NFS to access volumes, enable gluster-NFS using below command:
    Copy to Clipboard Toggle word wrap 
    # gluster volume set <volname> nfs.disable off
    For example:
    Copy to Clipboard Toggle word wrap 
    # gluster volume set testvol nfs.disable off
volume set: success
  16. Mount the CTDB volume by running the following command:
    Copy to Clipboard Toggle word wrap 
    # mount -a
  17. Start the CTDB service using the following command:
    Copy to Clipboard Toggle word wrap 
    # service ctdb start
  18. To verify if CTDB is running successfully, execute the following commands:
    Copy to Clipboard Toggle word wrap 
    # ctdb status
# ctdb ip
# ctdb ping -n all
CTDB Upgrade

After upgrading the Red Hat Gluster Storage server, upgrade the CTDB package by executing the following steps:

Note

  • Upgrading CTDB on all the nodes must be done simultaneously to avoid any data corruption.
  • The following steps have to performed only when upgrading CTDB from CTDB 1.x to CTDB 4.x.
  1. Stop the CTDB service on all the nodes of the CTDB cluster by executing the following command. Ensure it is performed on all the nodes simultaneously as two different versions of CTDB cannot run at the same time in the CTDB cluster:
    Copy to Clipboard Toggle word wrap 
    # service ctdb stop
  2. Perform the following operations on all the nodes used as samba servers:
    • Remove the following soft links:
      Copy to Clipboard Toggle word wrap 
      /etc/sysconfig/ctdb
