download PDF
  1. Execute the following command to update the heketi client and cns-deploy packages:
    # yum update cns-deploy -y 
    # yum update heketi-client -y
  2. Backup the Heketi database file
    # oc rsh <heketi_pod_name> 
    # cp -a /var/lib/heketi/heketi.db /var/lib/heketi/heketi.db.`date +%s`.`heketi --version | awk '{print $2}'`
    # exit
  3. Execute the following command to delete the heketi template
    # oc delete templates heketi
  4. Execute the following command to install the heketi template:
    # oc create -f /usr/share/heketi/templates/heketi-template.yaml
    template "heketi" created
  5. Execute the following command to grant the heketi Service Account the neccessary privileges:
    # oc policy add-role-to-user edit system:serviceaccount:<project_name>:heketi-service-account
    # oc adm policy add-scc-to-user privileged -z heketi-service-account
    For example,
    # oc policy add-role-to-user edit system:serviceaccount:storage-project:heketi-service-account
    # oc adm policy add-scc-to-user privileged -z heketi-service-account
  6. Execute the following command to generate a new heketi configuration file:
    # sed -e "s/\${HEKETI_EXECUTOR}/kubernetes/" -e "s#\${HEKETI_FSTAB}#/var/lib/heketi/fstab#" -e "s/\${SSH_PORT}/22/" -e "s/\${SSH_USER}/root/" -e "s/\${SSH_SUDO}/false/" -e "s/\${BLOCK_HOST_CREATE}/true/" -e "s/\${BLOCK_HOST_SIZE}/500/" "/usr/share/heketi/templates/heketi.json.template" > heketi.json
    • The BLOCK_HOST_SIZE parameter controls the size (in GB) of the automatically created Red Hat Gluster Storage volumes hosting the gluster-block volumes (For more information, see Section 9.2, “Block Storage”). This default configuration will dynamically create block-hosting volumes of 500GB in size as more space is required.
    • Alternatively, copy the file /usr/share/heketi/templates/heketi.json.template to heketi.json in the current directory and edit the new file directly, replacing each "${VARIABLE}" string with the required parameter.

      Note

      JSON formatting is strictly required (e.g. no trailing spaces, booleans in all lowercase).
  7. Execute the following command to create a secret to hold the configuration file:
    # oc create secret generic heketi-config-secret --from-file=heketi.json
  8. Execute the following command to delete the deployment configuration, service, and route for heketi:
    # oc delete deploymentconfig,service,route heketi
  9. 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 -
    For example:
    # oc process heketi | oc create -f -
    
    service "heketi" created
    route "heketi" created
    deploymentconfig "heketi" created
  10. Execute the following command to verify that the containers are running:
    # oc get pods
    For example:
    # oc get pods
    NAME                             READY     STATUS    RESTARTS   AGE

    glusterfs-gr9gh                  1/1       Running   0          3d
