7 Toolboxes #

7.1 Rook toolbox #

The Rook toolbox is a container with common tools used for rook debugging and testing. The toolbox is based on SUSE Linux Enterprise Server, so more tools of your choosing can be installed with zypper.

The toolbox can be run in two modes:

Sezione 7.1.1, «Interactive toolbox»: Start a toolbox pod where you can connect and execute Ceph commands from a shell.
Sezione 7.1.2, «Running the toolbox job»: Run a script with Ceph commands and collect the results from the job log.

Nota

Prerequisite: Before running the toolbox you should have a running Rook cluster deployed.

7.1.1 Interactive toolbox #

The Rook toolbox can run as a deployment in a Kubernetes cluster where you can connect and run arbitrary Ceph commands.

Save the tools spec as toolbox.yaml:

  apiVersion: apps/v1
  kind: Deployment
  metadata:
    name: rook-ceph-tools
    namespace: rook-ceph
    labels:
      app: rook-ceph-tools
  spec:
    replicas: 1
    selector:
      matchLabels:
        app: rook-ceph-tools
    template:
      metadata:
        labels:
          app: rook-ceph-tools
      spec:
        dnsPolicy: ClusterFirstWithHostNet
        containers:
        - name: rook-ceph-tools
          image: registry.suse.com/ses/7/rook/ceph:LATEST_TAG
          command: ["/tini"]
          args: ["-g", "--", "/usr/bin/toolbox.sh"]
          imagePullPolicy: IfNotPresent
          env:
            - name: ROOK_CEPH_USERNAME
              valueFrom:
                secretKeyRef:
                  name: rook-ceph-mon
                  key: ceph-username
            - name: ROOK_CEPH_SECRET
              valueFrom:
                secretKeyRef:
                  name: rook-ceph-mon
                  key: ceph-secret
          volumeMounts:
            - mountPath: /etc/ceph
              name: ceph-config
            - name: mon-endpoint-volume
              mountPath: /etc/rook
        volumes:
          - name: mon-endpoint-volume
            configMap:
              name: rook-ceph-mon-endpoints
              items:
              - key: data
                path: mon-endpoints
          - name: ceph-config
            emptyDir: {}
        tolerations:
          - key: "node.kubernetes.io/unreachable"
            operator: "Exists"
            effect: "NoExecute"
            tolerationSeconds: 5

Launch the rook-ceph-tools pod:

kubectl@adm > kubectl create -f toolbox.yaml

Wait for the toolbox pod to download its container and get to the running state:

kubectl@adm > kubectl -n rook-ceph get pod -l "app=rook-ceph-tools"

Once the rook-ceph-tools pod is running, you can connect to it with:

kubectl@adm > kubectl -n rook-ceph exec -it $(kubectl -n rook-ceph get pod -l "app=rook-ceph-tools" -o jsonpath='{.items[0].metadata.name}') bash

All available tools in the toolbox are ready for your troubleshooting needs.

Example:

ceph status
ceph osd status
ceph df
rados df

When you are done with the toolbox, you can remove the deployment:

kubectl@adm > kubectl -n rook-ceph delete deployment rook-ceph-tools

7.1.2 Running the toolbox job #

If you want to run Ceph commands as a one-time operation and collect the results later from the logs, you can run a script as a Kubernetes Job. The toolbox job will run a script that is embedded in the job spec. The script has the full flexibility of a bash script.

In this example, the ceph status command is executed when the job is created.

  apiVersion: batch/v1
  kind: Job
  metadata:
    name: rook-ceph-toolbox-job
    namespace: rook-ceph
    labels:
      app: ceph-toolbox-job
  spec:
    template:
      spec:
        initContainers:
        - name: config-init
          image: registry.suse.com/ses/7/rook/ceph:LATEST_TAG
          command: ["/usr/bin/toolbox.sh"]
          args: ["--skip-watch"]
          imagePullPolicy: IfNotPresent
          env:
          - name: ROOK_CEPH_USERNAME
            valueFrom:
              secretKeyRef:
                name: rook-ceph-mon
                key: ceph-username
          - name: ROOK_CEPH_SECRET
            valueFrom:
              secretKeyRef:
                name: rook-ceph-mon
                key: ceph-secret
          volumeMounts:
          - mountPath: /etc/ceph
            name: ceph-config
          - name: mon-endpoint-volume
            mountPath: /etc/rook
        containers:
        - name: script
          image: registry.suse.com/ses/7/rook/ceph:LATEST_TAG
          volumeMounts:
          - mountPath: /etc/ceph
            name: ceph-config
            readOnly: true
          command:
          - "bash"
          - "-c"
          - |
            # Modify this script to run any ceph, rbd, radosgw-admin, or other commands that could
            # be run in the toolbox pod. The output of the commands can be seen by getting the pod log.
            #
            # example: print the ceph status
            ceph status
        volumes:
        - name: mon-endpoint-volume
          configMap:
            name: rook-ceph-mon-endpoints
            items:
            - key: data
              path: mon-endpoints
        - name: ceph-config
          emptyDir: {}
        restartPolicy: Never

Create the toolbox job:

kubectl@adm > kubectl create -f toolbox-job.yaml

After the job completes, see the results of the script:

kubectl@adm > kubectl -n rook-ceph logs -l job-name=rook-ceph-toolbox-job
