Chapter 6. Setting up Container-Native Storage
The Container-Native Storage environment addresses the use-case where applications require both shared storage and the flexibility of a converged infrastructure with compute and storage instances being scheduled and run from the same set of hardware.
6.1. Configuring Port Access
- On each of the OpenShift nodes that will host the Red Hat Gluster Storage container, add the following rules to
/etc/sysconfig/iptablesin order to open the required ports:-A OS_FIREWALL_ALLOW -p tcp -m state --state NEW -m tcp --dport 24007 -j ACCEPT -A OS_FIREWALL_ALLOW -p tcp -m state --state NEW -m tcp --dport 24008 -j ACCEPT -A OS_FIREWALL_ALLOW -p tcp -m state --state NEW -m tcp --dport 2222 -j ACCEPT -A OS_FIREWALL_ALLOW -p tcp -m state --state NEW -m multiport --dports 49152:49664 -j ACCEPT -A OS_FIREWALL_ALLOW -p tcp -m state --state NEW -m tcp --dport 24010 -j ACCEPT -A OS_FIREWALL_ALLOW -p tcp -m state --state NEW -m tcp --dport 3260 -j ACCEPT -A OS_FIREWALL_ALLOW -p tcp -m state --state NEW -m tcp --dport 111 -j ACCEPT
Note
- Port 24010 and 3260 are for gluster-blockd and iSCSI targets respectively.
- The port range starting at 49664 defines the range of ports that can be used by GlusterFS for communication to its volume bricks. In the above example the total number of bricks allowed is 512. Configure the port range based on the maximum number of bricks that could be hosted on each node.
For more information about Red Hat Gluster Storage Server ports, see https://access.redhat.com/documentation/en-us/red_hat_gluster_storage/3.3/html/administration_guide/chap-getting_started.- Execute the following command to reload the iptables:
# systemctl reload iptables
- Execute the following command on each node to verify if the iptables are updated:
# iptables -L
