Replacing nodes

Red Hat OpenShift Data Foundation 4.17

Instructions for how to safely replace a node in an OpenShift Data Foundation cluster.

Red Hat Storage Documentation Team

Abstract

This document explains how to safely replace a node in a Red Hat OpenShift Data Foundation cluster.

Making open source more inclusive

Red Hat is committed to replacing problematic language in our code, documentation, and web properties. We are beginning with these four terms: master, slave, blacklist, and whitelist. Because of the enormity of this endeavor, these changes will be implemented gradually over several upcoming releases. For more details, see our CTO Chris Wright’s message.

For Amazon Web Services (AWS)
- User-provisioned infrastructure
- Installer-provisioned infrastructure
For VMware
- User-provisioned infrastructure
- Installer-provisioned infrastructure
For Microsoft Azure
- Installer-provisioned infrastructure
For local storage devices
- Bare metal
- VMware
- IBM Power
For replacing your storage nodes in external mode, see Red Hat Ceph Storage documentation.

Chapter 1. OpenShift Data Foundation deployed using dynamic devices

1.1. OpenShift Data Foundation deployed on AWS

To replace an operational node, see:
- Section 1.1.1, “Replacing an operational AWS node on user-provisioned infrastructure”.
- Section 1.1.2, “Replacing an operational AWS node on installer-provisioned infrastructure”.
To replace a failed node, see:
- Section 1.1.3, “Replacing a failed AWS node on user-provisioned infrastructure”.
- Section 1.1.4, “Replacing a failed AWS node on installer-provisioned infrastructure”.

1.1.1. Replacing an operational AWS node on user-provisioned infrastructure

Prerequisites

Ensure that the replacement nodes are configured with similar infrastructure and resources to the node that you replace.
You must be logged into the OpenShift Container Platform cluster.

Note

When replacing an AWS node on user-provisioned infrastructure, the new node needs to be created in the same AWS zone as the original node.

Procedure

Identify the node that you need to replace.
Mark the node as unschedulable:
```
$ oc adm cordon <node_name>
```
<node_name>
Specify the name of node that you need to replace.
Drain the node:
```
$ oc adm drain <node_name> --force --delete-emptydir-data=true --ignore-daemonsets
```
Important
This activity might take at least 5 - 10 minutes or more. Ceph errors generated during this period are temporary and are automatically resolved when you label the new node, and it is functional.
Delete the node:
```
$ oc delete nodes <node_name>
```
Create a new Amazon Web Service (AWS) machine instance with the required infrastructure. See Platform requirements.
Create a new OpenShift Container Platform node using the new AWS machine instance.
Check for the Certificate Signing Requests (CSRs) related to OpenShift Container Platform that are in Pending state:
```
$ oc get csr
```
Approve all the required OpenShift Container Platform CSRs for the new node:
```
$ oc adm certificate approve <certificate_name>
```
<certificate_name>
Specify the name of the CSR.
Click Compute → Nodes. Confirm that the new node is in Ready state.
Apply the OpenShift Data Foundation label to the new node using one of the following:
From the user interface
For the new node, click Action Menu (⋮) → Edit Labels.
Add cluster.ocs.openshift.io/openshift-storage, and click Save.
From the command-line interface
Apply the OpenShift Data Foundation label to the new node:
```
$ oc label node <new_node_name> cluster.ocs.openshift.io/openshift-storage=""
```
<new_node_name>
Specify the name of the new node.

Verification steps

Verify that the new node is present in the output:

$ oc get nodes --show-labels | grep cluster.ocs.openshift.io/openshift-storage= |cut -d' ' -f1

Click Workloads → Pods. Confirm that at least the following pods on the new node are in Running state:
- csi-cephfsplugin-*
- csi-rbdplugin-*
Verify that all the other required OpenShift Data Foundation pods are in Running state.
Verify that the new Object Storage Device (OSD) pods are running on the replacement node:
```
$ oc get pods -o wide -n openshift-storage| egrep -i <new_node_name> | egrep osd
```
Optional: If cluster-wide encryption is enabled on the cluster, verify that the new OSD devices are encrypted.
For each of the new nodes identified in the previous step, do the following:
1. Create a debug pod and open a chroot environment for the one or more selected hosts:
```
$ oc debug node/<node_name>
```
```
$ chroot /host
```
2. Display the list of available block devices:
```
$ lsblk
```
  Check for the crypt keyword beside the one or more ocs-deviceset names.
If the verification steps fail, contact Red Hat Support.

2.1. Replacing storage nodes on bare metal infrastructure

To replace an operational node, see Section 2.1.1, “Replacing an operational node on bare metal user-provisioned infrastructure”.
To replace a failed node, see Section 2.1.2, “Replacing a failed node on bare metal user-provisioned infrastructure”.

2.1.1. Replacing an operational node on bare metal user-provisioned infrastructure

Prerequisites

Ensure that the replacement nodes are configured with similar infrastructure, resources, and disks to the node that you replace.
You must be logged into the OpenShift Container Platform cluster.

Procedure

Identify the node, and get the labels on the node that you need to replace:
```
$ oc get nodes --show-labels | grep <node_name>
```
<node_name>
Specify the name of node that you need to replace.
Identify the monitor pod (if any), and OSDs that are running in the node that you need to replace:
```
$ oc get pods -n openshift-storage -o wide | grep -i <node_name>
```

Scale down the deployments of the pods identified in the previous step:

For example:

$ oc scale deployment rook-ceph-mon-c --replicas=0 -n openshift-storage

$ oc scale deployment rook-ceph-osd-0 --replicas=0 -n openshift-storage

$ oc scale deployment --selector=app=rook-ceph-crashcollector,node_name=<node_name>  --replicas=0 -n openshift-storage

Mark the node as unschedulable:
```
$ oc adm cordon <node_name>
```

Drain the node:

$ oc adm drain <node_name> --force --delete-emptydir-data=true --ignore-daemonsets

Delete the node:
```
$ oc delete node <node_name>
```
Get a new bare-metal machine with the required infrastructure. See Installing on bare metal.
Important
For information about how to replace a master node when you have installed OpenShift Data Foundation on a three-node OpenShift compact bare-metal cluster, see the Backup and Restore guide in the OpenShift Container Platform documentation.
Create a new OpenShift Container Platform node using the new bare-metal machine.
Check for the Certificate Signing Requests (CSRs) related to OpenShift Container Platform that are in Pending state:
```
$ oc get csr
```
Approve all the required OpenShift Container Platform CSRs for the new node:
```
$ oc adm certificate approve <certificate_name>
```
<certificate_name>
Specify the name of the CSR.
Click Compute → Nodes in the OpenShift Web Console. Confirm that the new node is in Ready state.
Apply the OpenShift Data Foundation label to the new node using any one of the following:
From the user interface
For the new node, click Action Menu (⋮) → Edit Labels.
Add cluster.ocs.openshift.io/openshift-storage, and click Save.
From the command-line interface
Apply the OpenShift Data Foundation label to the new node:
```
$ oc label node <new_node_name> cluster.ocs.openshift.io/openshift-storage=""
```
<new_node_name>
Specify the name of the new node.

Identify the namespace where OpenShift local storage operator is installed, and assign it to the local_storage_project variable:

$ local_storage_project=$(oc get csv --all-namespaces | awk '{print $1}' | grep local)

For example:

$ local_storage_project=$(oc get csv --all-namespaces | awk '{print $1}' | grep local)

echo $local_storage_project

Example output:

openshift-local-storage

Add a new worker node to the localVolumeDiscovery and localVolumeSet.

Update the localVolumeDiscovery definition to include the new node, and remove the failed node:

# oc edit -n $local_storage_project localvolumediscovery auto-discover-devices

Example output:

[...]
   nodeSelector:
    nodeSelectorTerms:
      - matchExpressions:
          - key: kubernetes.io/hostname
            operator: In
            values:
            - server1.example.com
            - server2.example.com
            #- server3.example.com
            - newnode.example.com
[...]

Remember to save before exiting the editor.

In this example, server3.example.com is removed, and newnode.example.com is the new node.

Determine the localVolumeSet to edit:

# oc get -n $local_storage_project localvolumeset

Example output:

NAME          AGE
localblock   25h

Update the localVolumeSet definition to include the new node, and remove the failed node:

# oc edit -n $local_storage_project localvolumeset localblock

Example output:

[...]
   nodeSelector:
    nodeSelectorTerms:
      - matchExpressions:
          - key: kubernetes.io/hostname
            operator: In
            values:
            - server1.example.com
            - server2.example.com
            #- server3.example.com
            - newnode.example.com
[...]

Remember to save before exiting the editor.

In the this example, server3.example.com is removed and newnode.example.com is the new node.

Verify that the new localblock Persistent Volume (PV) is available:

$oc get pv | grep localblock | grep Available

Example output:

local-pv-551d950     512Gi    RWO    Delete  Available
localblock     26s

Navigate to the openshift-storage project:
```
$ oc project openshift-storage
```
Remove the failed OSD from the cluster. You can specify multiple failed OSDs if required:
```
$ oc process -n openshift-storage ocs-osd-removal \
-p FAILED_OSD_IDS=<failed_osd_id> | oc create -f -
```
<failed_osd_id>
Is the integer in the pod name immediately after the rook-ceph-osd prefix.
You can add comma separated OSD IDs in the command to remove more than one OSD, for example, FAILED_OSD_IDS=0,1,2.
The FORCE_OSD_REMOVAL value must be changed to true in clusters that only have three OSDs, or clusters with insufficient space to restore all three replicas of the data after the OSD is removed.
Verify that the OSD was removed successfully by checking the status of the ocs-osd-removal-job pod.
A status of Completed confirms that the OSD removal job succeeded.
```
# oc get pod -l job-name=ocs-osd-removal-job -n openshift-storage
```

Ensure that the OSD removal is completed.

$ oc logs -l job-name=ocs-osd-removal-job -n openshift-storage --tail=-1 | egrep -i 'completed removal'

Example output:

2022-05-10 06:50:04.501511 I | cephosd: completed removal of OSD 0

Important

If the ocs-osd-removal-job fails, and the pod is not in the expected Completed state, check the pod logs for further debugging:

For example:

# oc logs -l job-name=ocs-osd-removal-job -n openshift-storage --tail=-1

Identify the Persistent Volume (PV) associated with the Persistent Volume Claim (PVC):

# oc get pv -L kubernetes.io/hostname | grep localblock | grep Released

local-pv-d6bf175b  1490Gi  RWO  Delete  Released  openshift-storage/ocs-deviceset-0-data-0-6c5pw  localblock  2d22h  compute-1

If there is a PV in Released state, delete it:

# oc delete pv <persistent_volume>

For example:

# oc delete pv local-pv-d6bf175b

Example output:

persistentvolume "local-pv-d9c5cbd6" deleted

Identify the crashcollector pod deployment:

$ oc get deployment --selector=app=rook-ceph-crashcollector,node_name=<failed_node_name> -n openshift-storage

If there is an existing crashcollector pod deployment, delete it:

$ oc delete deployment --selector=app=rook-ceph-crashcollector,node_name=<failed_node_name> -n openshift-storage

Delete the ocs-osd-removal-job:

# oc delete -n openshift-storage job ocs-osd-removal-job

Example output:

job.batch "ocs-osd-removal-job" deleted

Verification steps

Verify that the new node is present in the output:

$ oc get nodes --show-labels | grep cluster.ocs.openshift.io/openshift-storage= |cut -d' ' -f1

Click Workloads → Pods. Confirm that at least the following pods on the new node are in Running state:
- csi-cephfsplugin-*
- csi-rbdplugin-*

Verify that all other required OpenShift Data Foundation pods are in Running state.

Ensure that the new incremental mon is created, and is in the Running state:

Change to the openshift-storage project.
```
$ oc project openshift-storage
```
Remove the failed OSD from the cluster. You can specify multiple failed OSDs if required.
1. Identify the PVC as afterwards we need to delete PV associated with that specific PVC.
```
$ osd_id_to_remove=1
$ oc get -n openshift-storage -o yaml deployment rook-ceph-osd-${osd_id_to_remove} | grep ceph.rook.io/pvc
```
  where, osd_id_to_remove is the integer in the pod name immediately after the rook-ceph-osd prefix. In this example, the deployment name is rook-ceph-osd-1.
  Example output:
```
ceph.rook.io/pvc: ocs-deviceset-localblock-0-data-0-g2mmc
    ceph.rook.io/pvc: ocs-deviceset-localblock-0-data-0-g2mmc
```
  In this example, the PVC name is ocs-deviceset-localblock-0-data-0-g2mmc.
2. Remove the failed OSD from the cluster.
```
$ oc process -n openshift-storage ocs-osd-removal -p FAILED_OSD_IDS=${osd_id_to_remove} |oc create -f -
```
  You can remove more than one OSD by adding comma separated OSD IDs in the command. (For example: FAILED_OSD_IDS=0,1,2)
  Warning
  This step results in OSD being completely removed from the cluster. Ensure that the correct value of osd_id_to_remove is provided.
Verify that the OSD was removed successfully by checking the status of the ocs-osd-removal pod.
A status of Completed confirms that the OSD removal job succeeded.
```
# oc get pod -l job-name=ocs-osd-removal-osd_id_to_remove -n openshift-storage
```
Note
If ocs-osd-removal fails and the pod is not in the expected Completed state, check the pod logs for further debugging. For example:
```
# oc logs -l job-name=ocs-osd-removal-osd_id_to_remove -n openshift-storage --tail=-1
```
It may be necessary to manually cleanup the removed OSD as follows:
```
ceph osd crush remove osd.osd_id_to_remove
ceph osd rm osd_id_to_remove
ceph auth del osd.osd_id_to_remove
ceph osd crush rm osd_id_to_remove
```

Delete the PV associated with the failed node.

Identify the PV associated with the PVC.

The PVC name must be identical to the name that is obtained while removing the failed OSD from the cluster.

# oc get pv -L kubernetes.io/hostname | grep localblock | grep Released
local-pv-5c9b8982  500Gi  RWO  Delete  Released  openshift-storage/ocs-deviceset-localblock-0-data-0-g2mmc  localblock  24h  worker-0

If there is a PV in Released state, delete it.

# oc delete pv <persistent-volume>

For example:

# oc delete pv local-pv-5c9b8982
persistentvolume "local-pv-5c9b8982" deleted

Identify the crashcollector pod deployment.

$ oc get deployment --selector=app=rook-ceph-crashcollector,node_name=<failed_node_name> -n openshift-storage

If there is an existing crashcollector pod deployment, delete it.

$ oc delete deployment --selector=app=rook-ceph-crashcollector,node_name=<failed_node_name> -n openshift-storage

Delete the ocs-osd-removal job.

# oc delete job ocs-osd-removal-${osd_id_to_remove}

Example output:

job.batch "ocs-osd-removal-0" deleted

Verification steps

Verify that the new node is present in the output:

$ oc get nodes --show-labels | grep cluster.ocs.openshift.io/openshift-storage= |cut -d' ' -f1

Click Workloads → Pods. Confirm that at least the following pods on the new node are in Running state:

2.3. Replacing storage nodes on IBM Power infrastructure

For OpenShift Data Foundation, you can perform node replacement proactively for an operational node, and reactively for a failed node, for the deployments related to IBM Power.

2.3.1. Replacing an operational or failed storage node on IBM Power

Prerequisites

Ensure that the replacement nodes are configured with the similar infrastructure and resources to the node that you replace.
You must be logged into the OpenShift Container Platform cluster.

Procedure

Identify the node, and get the labels on the node that you need to replace:
```
$ oc get nodes --show-labels | grep <node_name>
```
<node_name>
Specify the name of node that you need to replace.
Identify the mon (if any), and Object Storage Device (OSD) pods that are running in the node that you need to replace:
```
$ oc get pods -n openshift-storage -o wide | grep -i <node_name>
```

Scale down the deployments of the pods identified in the previous step:

For example:

$ oc scale deployment rook-ceph-mon-a --replicas=0 -n openshift-storage

$ oc scale deployment rook-ceph-osd-1 --replicas=0 -n openshift-storage

$ oc scale deployment --selector=app=rook-ceph-crashcollector,node_name=<node_name> --replicas=0 -n openshift-storage

Mark the node as unschedulable:
```
$ oc adm cordon <node_name>
```

Remove the pods which are in Terminating state:

$ oc get pods -A -o wide | grep -i <node_name> |  awk '{if ($4 == "Terminating") system ("oc -n " $1 " delete pods " $2  " --grace-period=0 " " --force ")}'

Drain the node:

$ oc adm drain <node_name> --force --delete-emptydir-data=true --ignore-daemonsets

Delete the node:
```
$ oc delete node <node_name>
```
Get a new IBM Power machine with the required infrastructure. See Installing a cluster on IBM Power.
Create a new OpenShift Container Platform node using the new IBM Power machine.
Check for the Certificate Signing Requests (CSRs) related to OpenShift Container Platform that are in Pending state:
```
$ oc get csr
```
Approve all the required OpenShift Container Platform CSRs for the new node:
```
$ oc adm certificate approve <certificate_name>
```
<certificate_name>
Specify the name of the CSR.
Click Compute → Nodes in the OpenShift Web Console. Confirm that the new node is in Ready state.
Apply the OpenShift Data Foundation label to the new node using any one of the following:
From the user interface
For the new node, click Action Menu (⋮) → Edit Labels.
Add cluster.ocs.openshift.io/openshift-storage, and click Save.
From the command-line interface
Apply the OpenShift Data Foundation label to the new node:
```
$ oc label node <new_node_name> cluster.ocs.openshift.io/openshift-storage=''
```
<new_node_name>
Specify the name of the new node.

Identify the namespace where OpenShift local storage operator is installed, and assign it to the local_storage_project variable:

$ local_storage_project=$(oc get csv --all-namespaces | awk '{print $1}' | grep local)

For example:

$ local_storage_project=$(oc get csv --all-namespaces | awk '{print $1}' | grep local)

echo $local_storage_project

Example output:

openshift-local-storage

Add a newly added worker node to the localVolume.

Determine the localVolume you need to edit:

# oc get -n $local_storage_project localvolume

Example output:

NAME           AGE
localblock    25h

Update the localVolume definition to include the new node, and remove the failed node:

# oc edit -n $local_storage_project localvolume localblock

Example output:

[...]
    nodeSelector:
    nodeSelectorTerms:
      - matchExpressions:
          - key: kubernetes.io/hostname
            operator: In
            values:
            #- worker-0
            - worker-1
            - worker-2
            - worker-3
[...]

Remember to save before exiting the editor.

In the this example, worker-0 is removed and worker-3 is the new node.

Verify that the new localblock Persistent Volume (PV) is available:

$ oc get pv | grep localblock

Example output:

NAME              CAPACITY   ACCESSMODES RECLAIMPOLICY STATUS     CLAIM             STORAGECLASS                 AGE

Navigate to the openshift-storage project:
```
$ oc project openshift-storage
```
Remove the failed OSD from the cluster. You can specify multiple failed OSDs if required.
1. Identify the Persistent Volume Claim (PVC):
```
$ osd_id_to_remove=1
```
```
$ oc get -n openshift-storage -o yaml deployment rook-ceph-osd-${<osd_id_to_remove>} | grep ceph.rook.io/pvc
```
  where, <osd_id_to_remove> is the integer in the pod name immediately after the rook-ceph-osd prefix.
  In this example, the deployment name is rook-ceph-osd-1.
  Example output:
```
ceph.rook.io/pvc: ocs-deviceset-localblock-0-data-0-g2mmc
    ceph.rook.io/pvc: ocs-deviceset-localblock-0-data-0-g2mmc
```
2. Remove the failed OSD from the cluster. You can specify multiple failed OSDs if required:
```
$ oc process -n openshift-storage ocs-osd-removal \
-p FAILED_OSD_IDS=<failed_osd_id> | oc create -f -
```
  <failed_osd_id>
  Is the integer in the pod name immediately after the rook-ceph-osd prefix. You can add comma separated OSD IDs in the command to remove more than one OSD, for example, FAILED_OSD_IDS=0,1,2.
  The FORCE_OSD_REMOVAL value must be changed to true in clusters that only have three OSDs, or clusters with insufficient space to restore all three replicas of the data after the OSD is removed.
  Warning
  This step results in the OSD being completely removed from the cluster. Ensure that the correct value of osd_id_to_remove is provided.
Verify that the OSD was removed successfully by checking the status of the ocs-osd-removal-job pod.
A status of Completed confirms that the OSD removal job has succeeded.
```
# oc get pod -l job-name=ocs-osd-removal-job -n openshift-storage
```

Ensure that the OSD removal is completed.

$ oc logs -l job-name=ocs-osd-removal-job -n openshift-storage --tail=-1 | egrep -i 'completed removal'

Example output:

2022-05-10 06:50:04.501511 I | cephosd: completed removal of OSD 0

Important

If the ocs-osd-removal-job fails, and the pod is not in the expected Completed state, check the pod logs for further debugging.

For example:

# oc logs -l job-name=ocs-osd-removal-job -n openshift-storage --tail=-1

Delete the PV associated with the failed node.

Identify the PV associated with the PVC:

# oc get pv -L kubernetes.io/hostname | grep localblock | grep Released

Example output:

local-pv-5c9b8982  500Gi  RWO  Delete  Released  openshift-storage/ocs-deviceset-localblock-0-data-0-g2mmc  localblock  24h  worker-0

The PVC name must be identical to the name that is obtained while removing the failed OSD from the cluster.

If there is a PV in Released state, delete it:

# oc delete pv <persistent_volume>

For example:

# oc delete pv local-pv-5c9b8982

Example output:

persistentvolume "local-pv-5c9b8982" deleted

Identify the crashcollector pod deployment:

$ oc get deployment --selector=app=rook-ceph-crashcollector,node_name=<failed_node_name> -n openshift-storage

If there is an existing crashcollector pod deployment, delete it:

$ oc delete deployment --selector=app=rook-ceph-crashcollector,node_name=<failed_node_name> -n openshift-storage

Delete the ocs-osd-removal-job:

# oc delete -n openshift-storage job ocs-osd-removal-job

Example output:

job.batch "ocs-osd-removal-job" deleted

Verification steps

Verify that the new node is present in the output:

$ oc get nodes --show-labels | grep cluster.ocs.openshift.io/openshift-storage= |cut -d' ' -f1

Click Workloads → Pods. Confirm that at least the following pods on the new node are in Running state:
- csi-cephfsplugin-*
- csi-rbdplugin-*

Verify that all other required OpenShift Data Foundation pods are in Running state.

Ensure that the new incremental mon is created and is in the Running state:

$ oc get pod -n openshift-storage | grep mon

Example output:

rook-ceph-mon-b-74f6dc9dd6-4llzq                                   1/1     Running     0          6h14m
rook-ceph-mon-c-74948755c-h7wtx                                    1/1     Running     0          4h24m
rook-ceph-mon-d-598f69869b-4bv49                                   1/1     Running     0          162m

The OSD and monitor pod might take several minutes to get to the Running state.

Verify that the new OSD pods are running on the replacement node:

$ oc get pods -o wide -n openshift-storage| egrep -i <new_node_name> | egrep osd

Optional: If cluster-wide encryption is enabled on the cluster, verify that the new OSD devices are encrypted.
For each of the new nodes identified in the previous step, do the following:
1. Create a debug pod and open a chroot environment for the one or more selected hosts:
```
$ oc debug node/<node_name>
```
```
$ chroot /host
```
2. Display the list of available block devices:
```
$ lsblk
```
  Check for the crypt keyword beside the one or more ocs-deviceset names.
If the verification steps fail, contact Red Hat Support.

localblock     26s

Navigate to the openshift-storage project:
```
$ oc project openshift-storage
```
Remove the failed OSD from the cluster. You can specify multiple failed OSDs if required:
```
$ oc process -n openshift-storage ocs-osd-removal \
-p FAILED_OSD_IDS=<failed_osd_id> | oc create -f -
```
<failed_osd_id>
Is the integer in the pod name immediately after the rook-ceph-osd prefix.
You can add comma separated OSD IDs in the command to remove more than one OSD, for example, FAILED_OSD_IDS=0,1,2.
The FORCE_OSD_REMOVAL value must be changed to true in clusters that only have three OSDs, or clusters with insufficient space to restore all three replicas of the data after the OSD is removed.
Verify that the OSD was removed successfully by checking the status of the ocs-osd-removal-job pod.
A status of Completed confirms that the OSD removal job succeeded.
```
# oc get pod -l job-name=ocs-osd-removal-job -n openshift-storage
```

$ oc get deployment --selector=app=rook-ceph-crashcollector,node_name=<failed_node_name> -n openshift-storage

If there is an existing crashcollector pod deployment, delete it:

$ oc delete deployment --selector=app=rook-ceph-crashcollector,node_name=<failed_node_name> -n openshift-storage

Delete the ocs-osd-removal-job:

# oc delete -n openshift-storage job ocs-osd-removal-job

Example output:

job.batch "ocs-osd-removal-job" deleted

Verification steps

Verify that the new node is present in the output:

$ oc get nodes --show-labels | grep cluster.ocs.openshift.io/openshift-storage= |cut -d' ' -f1

Click Workloads → Pods. Confirm that at least the following pods on the new node are in Running state:
- csi-cephfsplugin-*
- csi-rbdplugin-*

Verify that all other required OpenShift Data Foundation pods are in Running state.

Ensure that the new incremental mon is created, and is in the Running state:

$ oc get pod -n openshift-storage | grep mon

Example output:

rook-ceph-mon-a-cd575c89b-b6k66         2/2     Running
0          38m
rook-ceph-mon-b-6776bc469b-tzzt8        2/2     Running

rook-ceph-mon-d-5ff5d488b5-7v8xh        2/2     Running
0          4m8s

OSD and monitor pod might take several minutes to get to the Running state.

Verify that new OSD pods are running on the replacement node:

$ oc get pods -o wide -n openshift-storage| egrep -i <new_node_name> | egrep osd

Optional: If cluster-wide encryption is enabled on the cluster, verify that the new OSD devices are encrypted.
For each of the new nodes identified in the previous step, do the following:
1. Create a debug pod and open a chroot environment for the one or more selected hosts:
```
$ oc debug node/<node_name>
```
```
$ chroot /host
```
2. Display the list of available block devices:
```
$ lsblk
```
  Check for the crypt keyword beside the one or more ocs-deviceset names.
If the verification steps fail, contact Red Hat Support.

2.4.2. Replacing an operational node on VMware installer-provisioned infrastructure

Prerequisites

Ensure that the replacement nodes are configured with the similar infrastructure, resources, and disks to the node that you replace.
You must be logged into the OpenShift Container Platform cluster.

Procedure

Log in to the OpenShift Web Console, and click Compute → Nodes.
Identify the node that you need to replace. Take a note of its Machine Name.
Get labels on the node:
```
$ oc get nodes --show-labels | grep <node_name>
```
<node_name>
Specify the name of node that you need to replace.
Identify the mon (if any), and Object Storage Devices (OSDs) that are running in the node:
```
$ oc get pods -n openshift-storage -o wide | grep -i <node_name>
```

Scale down the deployments of the pods that you identified in the previous step:

For example:

$ oc scale deployment rook-ceph-mon-c --replicas=0 -n openshift-storage

$ oc scale deployment rook-ceph-osd-0 --replicas=0 -n openshift-storage

$ oc scale deployment --selector=app=rook-ceph-crashcollector,node_name=<node_name>  --replicas=0 -n openshift-storage

Mark the node as unschedulable:
```
$ oc adm cordon <node_name>
```

Drain the node:

$ oc adm drain <node_name> --force --delete-emptydir-data=true --ignore-daemonsets

Click Compute → Machines. Search for the required machine.
Besides the required machine, click Action menu (⋮) → Delete Machine.
Click Delete to confirm the machine deletion. A new machine is automatically created.
Wait for the new machine to start and transition into Running state.
Important
This activity might take at least 5 - 10 minutes or more.
Click Compute → Nodes in the OpenShift Web Console. Confirm that the new node is in Ready state.
Physically add a new device to the node.
Apply the OpenShift Data Foundation label to the new node using any one of the following:
From the user interface
For the new node, click Action Menu (⋮) → Edit Labels.
Add cluster.ocs.openshift.io/openshift-storage, and click Save.
From the command-line interface
Apply the OpenShift Data Foundation label to the new node:
```
$ oc label node <new_node_name> cluster.ocs.openshift.io/openshift-storage=""
```
<new_node_name>
Specify the name of the new node.

Identify the namespace where the OpenShift local storage operator is installed, and assign it to the local_storage_project variable:

$ local_storage_project=$(oc get csv --all-namespaces | awk '{print $1}' | grep local)

For example:

$ local_storage_project=$(oc get csv --all-namespaces | awk '{print $1}' | grep local)

echo $local_storage_project

Example output:

openshift-local-storage

Add a new worker node to the localVolumeDiscovery and localVolumeSet.

Update the localVolumeDiscovery definition to include the new node and remove the failed node.

# oc edit -n $local_storage_project localvolumediscovery auto-discover-devices

Example output:

[...]
   nodeSelector:
    nodeSelectorTerms:
      - matchExpressions:
          - key: kubernetes.io/hostname
            operator: In
            values:
            - server1.example.com
            - server2.example.com
            #- server3.example.com
            - newnode.example.com
[...]

Remember to save before exiting the editor.

In this example, server3.example.com is removed, and newnode.example.com is the new node.

localblock   25h

Update the localVolumeSet definition to include the new node and remove the failed node:

# oc edit -n $local_storage_project localvolumeset localblock

Example output:

[...]
   nodeSelector:
    nodeSelectorTerms:
      - matchExpressions:
          - key: kubernetes.io/hostname
            operator: In
            values:
            - server1.example.com
            - server2.example.com
            #- server3.example.com
            - newnode.example.com
[...]

Remember to save before exiting the editor.

In this example, server3.example.com is removed, and newnode.example.com is the new node.

Verify that the new localblock Persistent Volume (PV) is available:

$ oc get pv | grep localblock | grep Available

Example output:

local-pv-551d950     512Gi    RWO    Delete  Available
localblock     26s

Navigate to the openshift-storage project:
```
$ oc project openshift-storage
```
Remove the failed OSD from the cluster. You can specify multiple failed OSDs if required:
```
$ oc process -n openshift-storage ocs-osd-removal \
-p FAILED_OSD_IDS=<failed_osd_id> | oc create -f -
```
<failed_osd_id>
Is the integer in the pod name immediately after the rook-ceph-osd prefix.
You can add comma separated OSD IDs in the command to remove more than one OSD, for example, FAILED_OSD_IDS=0,1,2.
The FORCE_OSD_REMOVAL value must be changed to true in clusters that only have three OSDs, or clusters with insufficient space to restore all three replicas of the data after the OSD is removed.
Verify that the OSD was removed successfully by checking the status of the ocs-osd-removal-job pod.
A status of Completed confirms that the OSD removal job succeeded.
```
# oc get pod -l job-name=ocs-osd-removal-job -n openshift-storage
```

Ensure that the OSD removal is completed.

$ oc logs -l job-name=ocs-osd-removal-job -n openshift-storage --tail=-1 | egrep -i 'completed removal'

Example output:

2022-05-10 06:50:04.501511 I | cephosd: completed removal of OSD 0

Important

If the ocs-osd-removal-job fails and the pod is not in the expected Completed state, check the pod logs for further debugging.

For example:

# oc logs -l job-name=ocs-osd-removal-job -n openshift-storage --tail=-1

If there is an existing crashcollector pod deployment, delete it:

$ oc delete deployment --selector=app=rook-ceph-crashcollector,node_name=_<failed_node_name>_ -n openshift-storage

Delete the ocs-osd-removal-job:

# oc delete -n openshift-storage job ocs-osd-removal-job

Example output:

job.batch "ocs-osd-removal-job" deleted

Verification steps

Verify that the new node is present in the output:

$ oc get nodes --show-labels | grep cluster.ocs.openshift.io/openshift-storage= |cut -d' ' -f1

Click Workloads → Pods. Confirm that at least the following pods on the new node are in Running state:
- csi-cephfsplugin-*
- csi-rbdplugin-*

Verify that all other required OpenShift Data Foundation pods are in Running state.

Ensure that the new incremental mon is created, and is in the Running state:

$ oc get pod -n openshift-storage | grep mon

Example output:

rook-ceph-mon-a-cd575c89b-b6k66         2/2     Running
0          38m
rook-ceph-mon-b-6776bc469b-tzzt8        2/2     Running
0          38m
rook-ceph-mon-d-5ff5d488b5-7v8xh        2/2     Running
0          4m8s

OSD and monitor pod might take several minutes to get to the Running state.

Verify that new OSD pods are running on the replacement node:

$ oc get pods -o wide -n openshift-storage| egrep -i <new_node_name> | egrep osd

Optional: If cluster-wide encryption is enabled on the cluster, verify that the new OSD devices are encrypted.
For each of the new nodes identified in the previous step, do the following:
1. Create a debug pod and open a chroot environment for the one or more selected hosts:
```
$ oc debug node/<node_name>
```
```
$ chroot /host
```
2. Display the list of available block devices:
```
$ lsblk
```
  Check for the crypt keyword beside the one or more ocs-deviceset names.
If the verification steps fail, contact Red Hat Support.
