RBD Volume Provisioner for Kubernetes 1.5+
rbd-provisioner
is an out-of-tree dynamic provisioner for Kubernetes 1.5+.
You can use it quickly & easily deploy ceph RBD storage that works almost
anywhere.
It works just like in-tree dynamic provisioner. For more information on how
dynamic provisioning works, see the docs
or this blog post.
Development
Compile the provisioner
make
Make the container image and push to the registry
make push
Test instruction
- Start Kubernetes local cluster
See https://kubernetes.io/.
- Create a Ceph admin secret
ceph auth get client.admin 2>&1 |grep "key = " |awk '{print $3'} |xargs echo -n > /tmp/key
kubectl create secret generic ceph-admin-secret --from-file=/tmp/key --namespace=kube-system --type=kubernetes.io/rbd
- Create a Ceph pool and a user secret
ceph osd pool create kube 8 8
ceph auth add client.kube mon 'allow r' osd 'allow rwx pool=kube'
ceph auth get-key client.kube > /tmp/key
kubectl create secret generic ceph-secret --from-file=/tmp/key --namespace=kube-system --type=kubernetes.io/rbd
The following example uses rbd-provisioner-1
as the identity for the instance and assumes kubeconfig is at /root/.kube
. The identity should remain the same if the provisioner restarts. If there are multiple provisioners, each should have a different identity.
docker run -ti -v /root/.kube:/kube -v /var/run/kubernetes:/var/run/kubernetes --privileged --net=host quay.io/external_storage/rbd-provisioner /usr/local/bin/rbd-provisioner -master=http://127.0.0.1:8080 -kubeconfig=/kube/config -id=rbd-provisioner-1
Alternatively, deploy it in kubernetes, see deployment.
- Create a RBD Storage Class
Replace Ceph monitor's IP in examples/class.yaml with your own and create storage class:
kubectl create -f examples/class.yaml
kubectl create -f examples/claim.yaml
- Create a Pod using the claim
kubectl create -f examples/test-pod.yaml
