Chapter 4. Staggered upgrade

download PDF

As a storage administrator, you can upgrade Red Hat Ceph Storage components in phases rather than all at once. The ceph orch upgrade command enables you to specify options to limit which daemons are upgraded by a single upgrade command.

Note

If you want to upgrade from a version that does not support staggered upgrades, you must first manually upgrade the Ceph Manager (ceph-mgr) daemons. For more information on performing a staggered upgrade from previous releases, see Performing a staggered upgrade from previous releases.

4.1. Staggered upgrade options

The ceph orch upgrade command supports several options to upgrade cluster components in phases. The staggered upgrade options include:

  • --daemon_types: The --daemon_types option takes a comma-separated list of daemon types and will only upgrade daemons of those types. Valid daemon types for this option include mgr, mon, crash, osd, mds, rgw, rbd-mirror, cephfs-mirror, and nfs.
  • --services: The --services option is mutually exclusive with --daemon-types, only takes services of one type at a time, and will only upgrade daemons belonging to those services. For example, you cannot provide an OSD and RGW service simultaneously.
  • --hosts: You can combine the --hosts option with --daemon_types, --services, or use it on its own. The --hosts option parameter follows the same format as the command line options for orchestrator CLI placement specification.
  • --limit: The --limit option takes an integer greater than zero and provides a numerical limit on the number of daemons cephadm will upgrade. You can combine the --limit option with --daemon_types, --services, or --hosts. For example, if you specify to upgrade daemons of type osd on host01 with a limit set to 3, cephadm will upgrade up to three OSD daemons on host01.

4.1.1. Performing a staggered upgrade

As a storage administrator, you can use the ceph orch upgrade options to limit which daemons are upgraded by a single upgrade command.

Cephadm strictly enforces an order for the upgrade of daemons that is still present in staggered upgrade scenarios. The current upgrade order is:

  1. Ceph Manager nodes
  2. Ceph Monitor nodes
  3. Ceph-crash daemons
  4. Ceph OSD nodes
  5. Ceph Metadata Server (MDS) nodes
  6. Ceph Object Gateway (RGW) nodes
  7. Ceph RBD-mirror node
  8. CephFS-mirror node
  9. Ceph NFS nodes
Note

If you specify parameters that upgrade daemons out of order, the upgrade command blocks and notes which daemons you need to upgrade before you proceed.

Example

[ceph: root@host01 /]# ceph orch upgrade start --image  registry.redhat.io/rhceph/rhceph-7-rhel9:latest --hosts host02

Error EINVAL: Cannot start upgrade. Daemons with types earlier in upgrade order than daemons on given host need upgrading.
Please first upgrade mon.ceph-host01

Note

There is no required order for restarting the instances. Red Hat recommends restarting the instance pointing to the pool with primary images followed by the instance pointing to the mirrored pool.

Prerequisites

  • A cluster running Red Hat Ceph Storage 5.3 or 6.1.
  • Root-level access to all the nodes.
  • At least two Ceph Manager nodes in the storage cluster: one active and one standby.

Procedure

  1. Log into the cephadm shell:

    Example

    [root@host01 ~]# cephadm shell

  2. Ensure all the hosts are online and that the storage cluster is healthy:

    Example

    [ceph: root@host01 /]# ceph -s

  3. Set the OSD noout, noscrub, and nodeep-scrub flags to prevent OSDs from getting marked out during upgrade and to avoid unnecessary load on the cluster:

    Example

    [ceph: root@host01 /]# ceph osd set noout
    [ceph: root@host01 /]# ceph osd set noscrub
    [ceph: root@host01 /]# ceph osd set nodeep-scrub

  4. Check service versions and the available target containers:

    Syntax

    ceph orch upgrade check IMAGE_NAME

    Example

    [ceph: root@host01 /]# ceph orch upgrade check registry.redhat.io/rhceph/rhceph-7-rhel9:latest

  5. Upgrade the storage cluster:

    1. To upgrade specific daemon types on specific hosts:

      Syntax

      ceph orch upgrade start --image IMAGE_NAME --daemon-types DAEMON_TYPE1,DAEMON_TYPE2 --hosts HOST1,HOST2

      Example

      [ceph: root@host01 /]# ceph orch upgrade start --image registry.redhat.io/rhceph/rhceph-7-rhel9:latest --daemon-types mgr,mon --hosts host02,host03

    2. To specify specific services and limit the number of daemons to upgrade:

      Syntax

      ceph orch upgrade start --image IMAGE_NAME --services SERVICE1,SERVICE2 --limit LIMIT_NUMBER

      Example

      [ceph: root@host01 /]# ceph orch upgrade start --image registry.redhat.io/rhceph/rhceph-7-rhel9:latest --services rgw.example1,rgw1.example2 --limit 2

      Note

      In staggered upgrade scenarios, if using a limiting parameter, the monitoring stack daemons, including Prometheus and node-exporter, are refreshed after the upgrade of the Ceph Manager daemons. As a result of the limiting parameter, Ceph Manager upgrades take longer to complete. The versions of monitoring stack daemons might not change between Ceph releases, in which case, they are only redeployed.

      Note

      Upgrade commands with limiting parameters validates the options before beginning the upgrade, which can require pulling the new container image. As a result, the upgrade start command might take a while to return when you provide limiting parameters.

  6. To see which daemons you still need to upgrade, run the ceph orch upgrade check or ceph versions command:

    Example

    [ceph: root@host01 /]# ceph orch upgrade check --image registry.redhat.io/rhceph/rhceph-7-rhel9:latest

  7. To complete the staggered upgrade, verify the upgrade of all remaining services:

    Syntax

    ceph orch upgrade start --image IMAGE_NAME

    Example

    [ceph: root@host01 /]# ceph orch upgrade start --image registry.redhat.io/rhceph/rhceph-7-rhel9:latest

Verification

  • Verify the new IMAGE_ID and VERSION of the Ceph cluster:

    Example

    [ceph: root@host01 /]# ceph versions
    [ceph: root@host01 /]# ceph orch ps

    1. When the upgrade is complete, unset the noout, noscrub, and nodeep-scrub flags:

      Example

      [ceph: root@host01 /]# ceph osd unset noout
      [ceph: root@host01 /]# ceph osd unset noscrub
      [ceph: root@host01 /]# ceph osd unset nodeep-scrub

4.1.2. Performing a staggered upgrade from previous releases

You can perform a staggered upgrade on your storage cluster by providing the necessary arguments

You can perform a staggered upgrade on your storage cluster by providing the necessary arguments. If you want to upgrade from a version that does not support staggered upgrades, you must first manually upgrade the Ceph Manager (ceph-mgr) daemons. Once you have upgraded the Ceph Manager daemons, you can pass the limiting parameters to complete the staggered upgrade.

Important

Verify you have at least two running Ceph Manager daemons before attempting this procedure.

Prerequisites

  • A cluster running Red Hat Ceph Storage 5.2 or lesser.
  • At least two Ceph Manager nodes in the storage cluster: one active and one standby.

Procedure

  1. Log into the Cephadm shell:

    Example

    [root@host01 ~]# cephadm shell

  2. Determine which Ceph Manager is active and which are standby:

    Example

    [ceph: root@host01 /]# ceph -s
      cluster:
        id:     266ee7a8-2a05-11eb-b846-5254002d4916
        health: HEALTH_OK
    
    
      services:
        mon: 2 daemons, quorum host01,host02 (age 92s)
        mgr: host01.ndtpjh(active, since 16h), standbys: host02.pzgrhz

  3. Manually upgrade each standby Ceph Manager daemon:

    Syntax

    ceph orch daemon redeploy mgr.ceph-HOST.MANAGER_ID --image IMAGE_ID

    Example

    [ceph: root@host01 /]# ceph orch daemon redeploy mgr.ceph-host02.pzgrhz --image registry.redhat.io/rhceph/rhceph-7-rhel9:latest

  4. Fail over to the upgraded standby Ceph Manager:

    Example

    [ceph: root@host01 /]# ceph mgr fail

  5. Check that the standby Ceph Manager is now active:

    Example

    [ceph: root@host01 /]# ceph -s
      cluster:
        id:     266ee7a8-2a05-11eb-b846-5254002d4916
        health: HEALTH_OK
    
    
      services:
        mon: 2 daemons, quorum host01,host02 (age 1h)
        mgr: host02.pzgrhz(active, since 25s), standbys: host01.ndtpjh

  6. Verify that the active Ceph Manager is upgraded to the new version:

    Syntax

    ceph tell mgr.ceph-HOST.MANAGER_ID version

    Example

    [ceph: root@host01 /]# ceph tell mgr.host02.pzgrhz version
    {
        "version": "18.2.0-128.el8cp",
        "release": "reef",
        "release_type": "stable"
    }

  7. Repeat steps 2 - 6 to upgrade the remaining Ceph Managers to the new version.
  8. Check that all Ceph Managers are upgraded to the new version:

    Example

    [ceph: root@host01 /]# ceph mgr versions
    {
        "ceph version 18.2.0-128.el8cp (600e227816517e2da53d85f2fab3cd40a7483372) pacific (stable)": 2
    }

  9. Once you upgrade all your Ceph Managers, you can specify the limiting parameters and complete the remainder of the staggered upgrade.
