Chapter 6. Updating the OpenShift Data Foundation external secret


Update the OpenShift Data Foundation external secret after updating to the latest version of OpenShift Data Foundation.

Note

Updating the external secret is not required for batch updates. For example, when updating from OpenShift Data Foundation 4.10.x to 4.10.y.

Prerequisites

  • Update the OpenShift Container Platform cluster to the latest stable release of 4.10.z, see Updating Clusters.
  • Ensure that the OpenShift Data Foundation cluster is healthy and the data is resilient. Navigate to Storage Data Foundation Storage Systems tab and then click on the storage system name.

    • On the Overview - Block and File tab, check the Status card and confirm that the Storage cluster has a green tick indicating it is healthy.
    • Click the Object tab and confirm Object Service and Data resiliency has a green tick indicating it is healthy. The RADOS Object Gateway is only listed in case RADOS Object Gateway endpoint details are included while deploying OpenShift Data Foundation in external mode.
  • Red Hat Ceph Storage must have a Ceph dashboard installed and configured.

Procedure

  1. Download the OpenShift Data Foundation version of the ceph-external-cluster-details-exporter.py python script.

    # oc get csv $(oc get csv -n openshift-storage | grep ocs-operator | awk '{print $1}') -n openshift-storage -o jsonpath='{.metadata.annotations.external\.features\.ocs\.openshift\.io/export-script}' | base64 --decode > ceph-external-cluster-details-exporter.py
  2. Update permission caps on the external Red Hat Ceph Storage cluster by running ceph-external-cluster-details-exporter.py on any client node in the external Red Hat Ceph Storage cluster. You may need to ask your Red Hat Ceph Storage administrator to do this.

    # python3 ceph-external-cluster-details-exporter.py --upgrade

    The updated permissions for the user are set as:

    client.csi-cephfs-node
    key: AQCYz0piYgu/IRAAipji4C8+Lfymu9vOrox3zQ==
    caps: [mds] allow rw
    caps: [mgr] allow rw
    caps: [mon] allow r, allow command 'osd blocklist'
    caps: [osd] allow rw tag cephfs =
    client.csi-cephfs-provisioner
    key: AQCYz0piDUMSIxAARuGUyhLXFO9u4zQeRG65pQ==
    caps: [mgr] allow rw
    caps: [mon] allow r, allow command 'osd blocklist'
    caps: [osd] allow rw tag cephfs metadata=*
    client.csi-rbd-node
    key: AQCYz0pi88IKHhAAvzRN4fD90nkb082ldrTaHA==
    caps: [mon] profile rbd, allow command 'osd blocklist'
    caps: [osd] profile rbd
    client.csi-rbd-provisioner
    key: AQCYz0pi6W8IIBAAgRJfrAW7kZfucNdqJqS9dQ==
    caps: [mgr] allow rw
    caps: [mon] profile rbd, allow command 'osd blocklist'
    caps: [osd] profile rbd
  3. Run the previously downloaded python script and save the JSON output that gets generated, from the external Red Hat Ceph Storage cluster.

    1. Run the previously downloaded python script:

      # python3 ceph-external-cluster-details-exporter.py --rbd-data-pool-name <rbd block pool name> --monitoring-endpoint <ceph mgr prometheus exporter endpoint> --monitoring-endpoint-port <ceph mgr prometheus exporter port> --rgw-endpoint <rgw endpoint> --run-as-user <ocs_client_name>  [optional arguments]
      --rbd-data-pool-name
      Is a mandatory parameter used for providing block storage in OpenShift Data Foundation.
      --rgw-endpoint
      Is optional. Provide this parameter if object storage is to be provisioned through Ceph Rados Gateway for OpenShift Data Foundation. Provide the endpoint in the following format: <ip_address>:<port>.
      --monitoring-endpoint
      Is optional. It accepts comma separated list of IP addresses of active and standby mgrs reachable from the OpenShift Container Platform cluster. If not provided, the value is automatically populated.
      --monitoring-endpoint-port
      Is optional. It is the port associated with the ceph-mgr Prometheus exporter specified by --monitoring-endpoint. If not provided, the value is automatically populated.
      --run-as-user

      The client name used during OpenShift Data Foundation cluster deployment. Use the default client name client.healthchecker if a different client name was not set.

      Note

      Ensure that all the parameters, including the optional arguments, except for monitoring-endpoint and monitoring-endpoint-port, are the same as what was used during the deployment of OpenShift Data Foundation in external mode.

    2. Save the JSON output generated after running the script in the previous step.

      Example output:

      [{"name": "rook-ceph-mon-endpoints", "kind": "ConfigMap", "data": {"data": "xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx:xxxx", "maxMonId": "0", "mapping": "{}"}}, {"name": "rook-ceph-mon", "kind": "Secret", "data": {"admin-secret": "admin-secret", "fsid": "<fs-id>", "mon-secret": "mon-secret"}}, {"name": "rook-ceph-operator-creds", "kind": "Secret", "data": {"userID": "<user-id>", "userKey": "<user-key>"}}, {"name": "rook-csi-rbd-node", "kind": "Secret", "data": {"userID": "csi-rbd-node", "userKey": "<user-key>"}}, {"name": "ceph-rbd", "kind": "StorageClass", "data": {"pool": "<pool>"}}, {"name": "monitoring-endpoint", "kind": "CephCluster", "data": {"MonitoringEndpoint": "xxx.xxx.xxx.xxxx", "MonitoringPort": "xxxx"}}, {"name": "rook-ceph-dashboard-link", "kind": "Secret", "data": {"userID": "ceph-dashboard-link", "userKey": "<user-key>"}}, {"name": "rook-csi-rbd-provisioner", "kind": "Secret", "data": {"userID": "csi-rbd-provisioner", "userKey": "<user-key>"}}, {"name": "rook-csi-cephfs-provisioner", "kind": "Secret", "data": {"adminID": "csi-cephfs-provisioner", "adminKey": "<admin-key>"}}, {"name": "rook-csi-cephfs-node", "kind": "Secret", "data": {"adminID": "csi-cephfs-node", "adminKey": "<admin-key>"}}, {"name": "cephfs", "kind": "StorageClass", "data": {"fsName": "cephfs", "pool": "cephfs_data"}}, {"name": "ceph-rgw", "kind": "StorageClass", "data": {"endpoint": "xxx.xxx.xxx.xxxx", "poolPrefix": "default"}}, {"name": "rgw-admin-ops-user", "kind": "Secret", "data": {"accessKey": "<access-key>", "secretKey": "<secret-key>"}}]
  4. Upload the generated JSON file.

    1. Log in to the OpenShift Web Console.
    2. Click Workloads Secrets.
    3. Set project to openshift-storage.
    4. Click rook-ceph-external-cluster-details.
    5. Click Actions (⋮) Edit Secret.
    6. Click Browse and upload the JSON file.
    7. Click Save.

Verification steps

  • To verify that the OpenShift Data Foundation cluster is healthy and data is resilient, navigate to Storage Data Foundation Storage Systems tab and then click on the storage system name.

    • On the Overview Block and File tab, check the Details card to verify that the RHCS dashboard link is available and also check the Status card to confirm that the Storage Cluster has a green tick indicating it is healthy.
    • Click the Object tab and confirm Object Service and Data resiliency has a green tick indicating it is healthy. The RADOS Object Gateway is only listed in case RADOS Object Gateway endpoint details are included while deploying OpenShift Data Foundation in external mode.
  • If verification steps fail, contact Red Hat Support.
