第 3 章 Administrator tasks

Procedure

1. Navigate in the web console to the Operators OperatorHub page.

2. Scroll or type a keyword into the Filter by keyword box to find the Operator you want. For example, type advanced to find the Advanced Cluster Management for Kubernetes Operator.

   You can also filter options by Infrastructure Features. For example, select Disconnected if you want to see Operators that work in disconnected environments, also known as restricted network environments.

3. Select the Operator to display additional information.

   注意

   Choosing a Community Operator warns that Red Hat does not certify Community Operators; you must acknowledge the warning before continuing.

4. Read the information about the Operator and click Install.

5. On the Install Operator page:

   1. Select one of the following:

      • All namespaces on the cluster (default) installs the Operator in the default openshift-operators namespace to watch and be made available to all namespaces in the cluster. This option is not always available.
      • A specific namespace on the cluster allows you to choose a specific, single namespace in which to install the Operator. The Operator will only watch and be made available for use in this single namespace.
   2. Choose a specific, single namespace in which to install the Operator. The Operator will only watch and be made available for use in this single namespace.
   3. Select an Update Channel (if more than one is available).
   4. Select Automatic or Manual approval strategy, as described earlier.

6. Click Install to make the Operator available to the selected namespaces on this OpenShift Container Platform cluster.

   1. If you selected a Manual approval strategy, the upgrade status of the subscription remains Upgrading until you review and approve the install plan.

      After approving on the Install Plan page, the subscription upgrade status moves to Up to date.

   2. If you selected an Automatic approval strategy, the upgrade status should resolve to Up to date without intervention.

7. After the upgrade status of the subscription is Up to date, select Operators Installed Operators to verify that the cluster service version (CSV) of the installed Operator eventually shows up. The Status should ultimately resolve to InstallSucceeded in the relevant namespace.

   注意

   For the All namespaces…​ installation mode, the status resolves to InstallSucceeded in the openshift-operators namespace, but the status is Copied if you check in other namespaces.

   If it does not:

   1. Check the logs in any pods in the openshift-operators project (or other relevant namespace if A specific namespace…​ installation mode was selected) on the Workloads Pods page that are reporting issues to troubleshoot further.

Procedure

1. View the list of Operators available to the cluster from OperatorHub:

   $ oc get packagemanifests -n openshift-marketplace

   Example output

   NAME                               CATALOG               AGE
   3scale-operator                    Red Hat Operators     91m
   advanced-cluster-management        Red Hat Operators     91m
   amq7-cert-manager                  Red Hat Operators     91m
   ...
   couchbase-enterprise-certified     Certified Operators   91m
   crunchy-postgres-operator          Certified Operators   91m
   mongodb-enterprise                 Certified Operators   91m
   ...
   etcd                               Community Operators   91m
   jaeger                             Community Operators   91m
   kubefed                            Community Operators   91m
   ...

   Note the catalog for your desired Operator.

2. Inspect your desired Operator to verify its supported install modes and available channels:

   $ oc describe packagemanifests <operator_name> -n openshift-marketplace

3. An Operator group, defined by an OperatorGroup object, selects target namespaces in which to generate required RBAC access for all Operators in the same namespace as the Operator group.

   The namespace to which you subscribe the Operator must have an Operator group that matches the install mode of the Operator, either the AllNamespaces or SingleNamespace mode. If the Operator you intend to install uses the AllNamespaces, then the openshift-operators namespace already has an appropriate Operator group in place.

   However, if the Operator uses the SingleNamespace mode and you do not already have an appropriate Operator group in place, you must create one.

   注意

   The web console version of this procedure handles the creation of the OperatorGroup and Subscription objects automatically behind the scenes for you when choosing SingleNamespace mode.

   1. Create an OperatorGroup object YAML file, for example operatorgroup.yaml:

      Example OperatorGroup object

      apiVersion: operators.coreos.com/v1
      kind: OperatorGroup
      metadata:
        name: <operatorgroup_name>
        namespace: <namespace>
      spec:
        targetNamespaces:
        - <namespace>

   2. Create the OperatorGroup object:

      $ oc apply -f operatorgroup.yaml

4. Create a Subscription object YAML file to subscribe a namespace to an Operator, for example sub.yaml:

   Example Subscription object

   apiVersion: operators.coreos.com/v1alpha1
   kind: Subscription
   metadata:
     name: <subscription_name>
     namespace: openshift-operators 1
   spec:
     channel: <channel_name> 2
     name: <operator_name> 3
     source: redhat-operators 4
     sourceNamespace: openshift-marketplace 5

   1

   For AllNamespaces install mode usage, specify the openshift-operators namespace. Otherwise, specify the relevant single namespace for SingleNamespace install mode usage.

   2

   Name of the channel to subscribe to.

   3

   Name of the Operator to subscribe to.

   4

   Name of the catalog source that provides the Operator.

   5

   Namespace of the catalog source. Use openshift-marketplace for the default OperatorHub catalog sources.

5. Create the Subscription object:

   $ oc apply -f sub.yaml

   At this point, OLM is now aware of the selected Operator. A cluster service version (CSV) for the Operator should appear in the target namespace, and APIs provided by the Operator should be available for creation.

Procedure

1. Create a Subscription object YAML file that subscribes a namespace to an Operator with a specific version by setting the startingCSV field. Set the installPlanApproval field to Manual to prevent the Operator from automatically upgrading if a later version exists in the catalog.

   For example, the following sub.yaml file can be used to install the Red Hat Quay Operator specifically to version 3.4.0:

   Subscription with a specific starting Operator version

   apiVersion: operators.coreos.com/v1alpha1
   kind: Subscription
   metadata:
     name: quay-operator
     namespace: quay
   spec:
     channel: quay-v3.4
     installPlanApproval: Manual 1
     name: quay-operator
     source: redhat-operators
     sourceNamespace: openshift-marketplace
     startingCSV: quay-operator.v3.4.0 2

   1

   Set the approval strategy to Manual in case your specified version is superseded by a later version in the catalog. This plan prevents an automatic upgrade to a later version and requires manual approval before the starting CSV can complete the installation.

   2

   Set a specific version of an Operator CSV.

2. Create the Subscription object:

   $ oc apply -f sub.yaml

3. Manually approve the pending install plan to complete the Operator installation.
