3.5. Configuring the registry for vSphere

Procedure

1. To configure your registry to use storage, change the spec.storage.pvc in the configs.imageregistry/cluster resource.

   注意

   When using shared storage, review your security settings to prevent outside access.

2. Verify that you do not have a registry pod:

   $ oc get pod -n openshift-image-registry

   注意

   If the storage type is emptyDIR, the replica number cannot be greater than 1.

3. Check the registry configuration:

   $ oc edit configs.imageregistry.operator.openshift.io

   Example output

   storage:
     pvc:
       claim: 1

   1

   Leave the claim field blank to allow the automatic creation of an image-registry-storage PVC.

4. Check the clusteroperator status:

   $ oc get clusteroperator image-registry

Procedure

1. To set the image registry storage to an empty directory:

   $ oc patch configs.imageregistry.operator.openshift.io cluster --type merge --patch '{"spec":{"storage":{"emptyDir":{}}}}'

   警告

   Configure this option for only non-production clusters.

   If you run this command before the Image Registry Operator initializes its components, the oc patch command fails with the following error:

   Error from server (NotFound): configs.imageregistry.operator.openshift.io "cluster" not found

   Wait a few minutes and run the command again.

2. Ensure that your registry is set to managed to enable building and pushing of images.

   • Run:

     $ oc edit configs.imageregistry/cluster

     Then, change the line

     managementState: Removed

     to

     managementState: Managed

Procedure

1. To set the image registry storage as a block storage type, patch the registry so that it uses the Recreate rollout strategy and runs with only 1 replica:

   $ oc patch config.imageregistry.operator.openshift.io/cluster --type=merge -p '{"spec":{"rolloutStrategy":"Recreate","replicas":1}}'

2. Provision the PV for the block storage device, and create a PVC for that volume. The requested block volume uses the ReadWriteOnce (RWO) access mode.

   1. Create a pvc.yaml file with the following contents to define a VMware vSphere PersistentVolumeClaim object:

      kind: PersistentVolumeClaim
      apiVersion: v1
      metadata:
        name: image-registry-storage 1
      spec:
        accessModes:
        - ReadWriteOnce 2
        resources:
          requests:
            storage: 100Gi 3

      1

      A unique name that represents the PersistentVolumeClaim object.

      2

      The access mode of the PersistentVolumeClaim. With ReadWriteOnce, the volume can be mounted with read and write permissions by a single node.

      3

      The size of the PersistentVolumeClaim.

   2. Create the PersistentVolumeClaim object from the file:

      $ oc create -f pvc.yaml -n openshift-image-registry

3. Edit the registry configuration so that it references the correct PVC:

   $ oc edit config.imageregistry.operator.openshift.io -o yaml

   Example output

   storage:
     pvc:
       claim: 1

   1

   Creating a custom PVC allows you to leave the claim field blank for the default automatic creation of an image-registry-storage PVC.
