Chapter 4. Configuration information for Red Hat Quay
Checking a configuration YAML can help identify and resolve various issues related to the configuration of Red Hat Quay. Checking the configuration YAML can help you address the following issues:
- Incorrect Configuration Parameters: If the database is not functioning as expected or is experiencing performance issues, your configuration parameters could be at fault. By checking the configuration YAML, administrators can ensure that all the required parameters are set correctly and match the intended settings for the database.
- Resource Limitations: The configuration YAML might specify resource limits for the database, such as memory and CPU limits. If the database is running into resource constraints or experiencing contention with other services, adjusting these limits can help optimize resource allocation and improve overall performance.
- Connectivity Issues: Incorrect network settings in the configuration YAML can lead to connectivity problems between the application and the database. Ensuring that the correct network configurations are in place can resolve issues related to connectivity and communication.
- Data Storage and Paths: The configuration YAML may include paths for storing data and logs. If the paths are misconfigured or inaccessible, the database may encounter errors while reading or writing data, leading to operational issues.
- Authentication and Security: The configuration YAML may contain authentication settings, including usernames, passwords, and access controls. Verifying these settings is crucial for maintaining the security of the database and ensuring only authorized users have access.
- Plugin and Extension Settings: Some databases support extensions or plugins that enhance functionality. Issues may arise if these plugins are misconfigured or not loaded correctly. Checking the configuration YAML can help identify any problems with plugin settings.
- Replication and High Availability Settings: In clustered or replicated database setups, the configuration YAML may define replication settings and high availability configurations. Incorrect settings can lead to data inconsistency and system instability.
- Backup and Recovery Options: The configuration YAML might include backup and recovery options, specifying how data backups are performed and how data can be recovered in case of failures. Validating these settings can ensure data safety and successful recovery processes.
By checking your configuration YAML, Red Hat Quay administrators can detect and resolve these issues before they cause significant disruptions to the application or service relying on the database.
4.1. Obtaining configuration information for Red Hat Quay
Configuration information can be obtained for all types of Red Hat Quay deployments, include standalone, Operator, and geo-replication deployments. Obtaining configuration information can help you resolve issues with authentication and authorization, your database, object storage, and repository mirroring. After you have obtained the necessary configuration information, you can update your config.yaml file, search the Red Hat Knowledgebase for a solution, or file a support ticket with the Red Hat Support team.
Procedure
To obtain configuration information on Red Hat Quay Operator deployments, you can use
oc exec,oc cp, oroc rsync.To use the
oc execcommand, enter the following command:$ oc exec -it <quay_pod_name> -- cat /conf/stack/config.yaml
This command returns your
config.yamlfile directly to your terminal.To use the
oc copycommand, enter the following commands:$ oc cp <quay_pod_name>:/conf/stack/config.yaml /tmp/config.yaml
To display this information in your terminal, enter the following command:
$ cat /tmp/config.yaml
To use the
oc rsynccommand, enter the following commands:oc rsync <quay_pod_name>:/conf/stack/ /tmp/local_directory/
To display this information in your terminal, enter the following command:
$ cat /tmp/local_directory/config.yaml
Example output
DISTRIBUTED_STORAGE_CONFIG: local_us: - RHOCSStorage - access_key: redacted bucket_name: lht-quay-datastore-68fff7b8-1b5e-46aa-8110-c4b7ead781f5 hostname: s3.openshift-storage.svc.cluster.local is_secure: true port: 443 secret_key: redacted storage_path: /datastorage/registry DISTRIBUTED_STORAGE_DEFAULT_LOCATIONS: - local_us DISTRIBUTED_STORAGE_PREFERENCE: - local_us
To obtain configuration information on standalone Red Hat Quay deployments, you can use
podman cporpodman exec.To use the
podman copycommand, enter the following commands:$ podman cp <quay_container_id>:/conf/stack/config.yaml /tmp/local_directory/
To display this information in your terminal, enter the following command:
$ cat /tmp/local_directory/config.yaml
To use
podman exec, enter the following commands:$ podman exec -it <quay_container_id> cat /conf/stack/config.yaml
Example output
BROWSER_API_CALLS_XHR_ONLY: false ALLOWED_OCI_ARTIFACT_TYPES: application/vnd.oci.image.config.v1+json: - application/vnd.oci.image.layer.v1.tar+zstd application/vnd.sylabs.sif.config.v1+json: - application/vnd.sylabs.sif.layer.v1+tar AUTHENTICATION_TYPE: Database AVATAR_KIND: local BUILDLOGS_REDIS: host: quay-server.example.com password: strongpassword port: 6379 DATABASE_SECRET_KEY: 05ee6382-24a6-43c0-b30f-849c8a0f7260 DB_CONNECTION_ARGS: {} ---
4.2. Obtaining database configuration information
You can obtain configuration information about your database by using the following procedure.
Interacting with the PostgreSQL database is potentially destructive. It is highly recommended that you perform the following procedure with the help of a Red Hat Quay Support Specialist.
Procedure
If you are using the Red Hat Quay Operator on OpenShift Container Platform, enter the following command:
$ oc exec -it <database_pod> -- cat /var/lib/pgsql/data/userdata/postgresql.conf
If you are using a standalone deployment of Red Hat Quay, enter the following command:
$ podman exec -it <database_container> cat /var/lib/pgsql/data/userdata/postgresql.conf
