# Introduction
|
||||
|
||||
## What is Democratic-CSI?
|
||||
|
||||
`Democratic-CSI` implements the `CSI` (Container Storage Interface) specifications providing storage for various container orchestration systems (*ie: Kubernetes, Nomad, OpenShift*).
|
||||
|
||||
The current *focus* is providing storage via iSCSI or NFS from ZFS-based storage systems, predominantly `TrueNAS / FreeNAS` and `ZoL on Ubuntu`.
|
||||
The current *drivers* implement the depth and breadth of the `csi` specifications, so you have access to resizing, snapshots, clones, etc functionality.
|
||||
|
||||
## What can Democratic-CSI offer?
|
||||
|
||||
**Several implementations of `CSI` drivers**
|
||||
:arrow_forward: `freenas-nfs` (manages zfs datasets to share over nfs)
|
||||
:arrow_forward: `freenas-iscsi` (manages zfs zvols to share over iscsi)
|
||||
:arrow_forward: `freenas-smb` (manages zfs datasets to share over smb)
|
||||
:arrow_forward: `freenas-api-nfs` experimental use with SCALE only (manages zfs datasets to share over nfs)
|
||||
:arrow_forward: `freenas-api-iscsi` experimental use with SCALE only (manages zfs zvols to share over iscsi)
|
||||
:arrow_forward: `freenas-api-smb` experimental use with SCALE only (manages zfs datasets to share over smb)
|
||||
:arrow_forward: `zfs-generic-nfs` (works with any ZoL installation...ie: Ubuntu)
|
||||
:arrow_forward: `zfs-generic-iscsi` (works with any ZoL installation...ie: Ubuntu)
|
||||
:arrow_forward: `zfs-local-ephemeral-inline` (provisions node-local zfs datasets)
|
||||
:arrow_forward: `synology-iscsi` experimental (manages volumes to share over iscsi)
|
||||
:arrow_forward: `lustre-client` (crudely provisions storage using a shared lustre share/directory for all volumes)
|
||||
:arrow_forward: `nfs-client` (crudely provisions storage using a shared nfs share/directory for all volumes)
|
||||
:arrow_forward: `smb-client` (crudely provisions storage using a shared smb share/directory for all volumes)
|
||||
:arrow_forward: `node-manual` (allows connecting to manually created smb, nfs, lustre, and iscsi volumes, see sample PVs in the `examples` directory)
|
||||
|
||||
**Development**
|
||||
:arrow_forward: Framework for developing `CSI` drivers
|
||||
|
||||
If you have any interest in providing a `CSI` driver, simply open an issue to
|
||||
discuss. The project provides an extensive framework to build and making it
|
||||
relatively easy to implement new drivers.

|
||||
# Installation
|
||||
|
||||
Predominantly 3 prerequisites are needed:
|
||||
|
||||
- Nodes preperation (ie: Kubernetes cluster nodes)
|
||||
- Storage server preperation
|
||||
- Deployment of the driver into the cluster (`helm` chart provided with sample
|
||||
`values.yaml`)
|
||||
|
||||
## :wrench: Node preperation
|
||||
|
||||
Alright, you have chosen your driver. Let's start by configuring the prerequisites for your Node.
|
||||
You can choose to use either **NFS** or **iSCSI** or **both**.
|
||||
|
||||
### NFS configuration
|
||||
|
||||
___
|
||||
|
||||
#### RHEL / CentOS
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
sudo yum install -y nfs-utils
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
#### Ubuntu / Debian
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
sudo apt-get install -y nfs-common
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### iSCSI configuration
|
||||
|
||||
___
|
||||
|
||||
**RHEL / CentOS**
|
||||
Install the following system packages:
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
sudo yum install -y lsscsi iscsi-initiator-utils sg3_utils device-mapper-multipath
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Enable multipathing:
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
sudo mpathconf --enable --with_multipathd y
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Ensure that `iscsid` and `multipathd` are running:
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
sudo systemctl enable iscsid multipathd && sudo systemctl start iscsid multipathd
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Start and enable iSCSI:
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
sudo systemctl enable iscsi && sudo systemctl start iscsi
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**Ubuntu / Debian**
|
||||
Install the following system packages:
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
sudo apt-get install -y open-iscsi lsscsi sg3-utils multipath-tools scsitools
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
#### Multipathing
|
||||
|
||||
`Multipath` is supported for the `iSCSI`-based drivers. Simply setup multipath to your liking and set multiple portals in the config as appropriate.
|
||||
*NOTE:* If you are running Kubernetes with Rancher/RKE please see the following:
|
||||
[Support host iscsi simultaneously with kubelet iscsi (pvc)](https://github.com/rancher/rke/issues/1846>)
|
||||
|
||||
Add the mutlipath configuration:
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
sudo tee /etc/multipath.conf <<-'EOF'
|
||||
defaults {
|
||||
user_friendly_names yes
|
||||
find_multipaths yes
|
||||
}
|
||||
EOF
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Enable the `multipath-tools` service and restart to load the configuration:
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
sudo systemctl enable multipath-tools && sudo service multipath-tools restart
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Ensure that `open-iscsi` and `multipath-tools` are enabled and running:
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
sudo systemctl status multipath-tools
|
||||
sudo systemctl enable open-iscsi.service
|
||||
sudo service open-iscsi start
|
||||
sudo systemctl status open-iscsi
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### FreeNAS-SMB
|
||||
|
||||
___
|
||||
If using with Windows based machines you may need to enable guest access (even
|
||||
if you are connecting with credentials)
|
||||
|
||||
```powershell
|
||||
Set-ItemProperty HKLM:\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\LanmanWorkstation\Parameters AllowInsecureGuestAuth -Value 1 ; Restart-Service LanmanWorkstation -Force
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### ZFS-local-ephemeral-inline
|
||||
|
||||
___
|
||||
This `driver` provisions node-local ephemeral storage on a per-pod basis. Each node should have an identically named ZFS pool created and avaialble to the `driver`.
|
||||
*NOTE:* This is *NOT* the same thing as using the docker ZFS storage
|
||||
driver (although the same pool could be used). No other requirements are
|
||||
necessary. More regarding to this can be found here: [Pod Inline Volume Support](https://kubernetes-csi.github.io/docs/ephemeral-local-volumes.html)
|
||||
|
||||
## :wrench: Storage server preperation
|
||||
|
||||
Storage server preperation depends slightly on which `driver` you are using.
|
||||
The recommended version of FreeNAS / TrueNAS is 12.0-U2 or higher, however the driver should work
|
||||
with much older versions as well.
|
||||
|
||||
### TrueNAS / FreeNAS (freenas-nfs, freenas-iscsi, freenas-smb, freenas-api-nfs, freenas-api-iscsi, freenas-api-smb)
|
||||
|
||||
#### API without SSH
|
||||
|
||||
___
|
||||
Configuration templates can be found [HERE](https://github.com/D1StrX/democratic-csi/blob/667354978e497fb4624d52e909609ca278e4bd25/examples/api-with-ssh)
|
||||
The various `freenas-api-*` drivers are currently EXPERIMENTAL and can only be used with SCALE 21.08+. Fundamentally these drivers remove the need for `ssh` connections and do all operations entirely with the TrueNAS api. With that in mind, any `ssh/shell/etc` requirements below can be safely ignored. Also note the following known issues:
|
||||
|
||||
- [Additional middleware changes to support Democratic CSI use of native API](https://jira.ixsystems.com/browse/NAS-111870)
|
||||
- [TrueNAS Scale 21.08 - Could not log into all portals](https://github.com/democratic-csi/democratic-csi/issues/112)
|
||||
- [Pure api based truenas driver (ssh dependency removed)](https://github.com/democratic-csi/democratic-csi/issues/101)
|
||||
|
||||

|
||||
|
||||
#### API with SSH
|
||||
|
||||
___
|
||||
Configuration templates can be found [HERE](https://github.com/D1StrX/democratic-csi/blob/667354978e497fb4624d52e909609ca278e4bd25/examples/api-with-ssh)
|
||||
|
||||
[Continue configuration](#Service-configuration)
|
||||
|
||||
### Service configuration
|
||||
|
||||
Ensure the following services are *configured*, *running* and starting automatically:
|
||||
|
||||
#### SSH configuration
|
||||
|
||||
___
|
||||
|
||||
- When creating a custom user (e.g., `CSI`):
|
||||
- Ensure `ZSH`, `BASH`, or `SH` is set as `shell`, `CSH` gives false errors due to quoting (also applicable when using `root`)
|
||||
 
|
||||
- Ensure that user has passwordless `sudo` privileges:
|
||||
*NOTE:* This could get reset by FreeNAS if you alter the user via the GUI later
|
||||
- On TrueNAS CORE 12.0-u3 or higher, open the Shell:
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
cli
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
After you enter the truenas cli and are at that prompt:
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
account user query select=id,username,uid,sudo_nopasswd
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
find the `id` of the user you want to update (note, this is distinct from the `uid`)
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
account user update id=<id> sudo=true
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
account user update id=<id> sudo_nopasswd=true
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
(Optional) If you want to enable passwordless authentication via CLI:
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
account user update id=<id> password_disabled=true
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Exit the CLI by pressing `ctrl-d`
|
||||
|
||||
- On other versions add the user to the sudoers file:
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
visudo
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
<username> ALL=(ALL) NOPASSWD:ALL
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Confirm sudoers file is appropriate:
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
cat /usr/local/etc/sudoers
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
- `CSI` has a homefolder, this is used to store its SSH Public Key
|
||||
 
|
||||
- Add the user to `wheel` or create/use a group that will be used for permissions later on
|
||||
|
||||
#### **NFS configuration**
|
||||
|
||||
___
|
||||
|
||||
- Bind the network interface to the NFS service
|
||||
- It is recommended to use NFS 3
|
||||
|
||||
#### **iSCSI configuration**
|
||||
|
||||
___
|
||||
|
||||
- Bind the network interface to the iSCSI service
|
||||
|
||||
*NOTE:* (Fixed in 12.0-U2+) when using the FreeNAS API concurrently, the `/etc/ctl.conf` file on the server can become invalid, some sample scripts are provided in the `contrib` directory to clean things up ie:
|
||||
Copy the script to the server and directly and run - `./ctld-config-watchdog-db.sh | logger -t ctld-config-watchdog-db.sh &`
|
||||
Please read the scripts and set the variables appropriate for your server.
|
||||
|
||||
- Ensure you have pre*emptively created portals, initatior groups, auths
|
||||
- Make note of the respective IDs (the true ID may not reflect what is
|
||||
visible in the UI)
|
||||
- IDs can be visible by clicking the the `Edit` link and finding the ID in the
|
||||
browser address bar
|
||||
- Optionally you may use the following to retrieve appropiate IDs:
|
||||
- `curl --header "Accept: application/json" --user root:<password> 'http(s)://<ip>/api/v2.0/iscsi/portal'`
|
||||
- `curl --header "Accept: application/json" --user root:<password> 'http(s)://<ip>/api/v2.0/iscsi/initiator'`
|
||||
- `curl --header "Accept: application/json" --user root:<password> 'http(s)://<ip>/api/v2.0/iscsi/auth'`
|
||||
|
||||
### SMB configuration
|
||||
|
||||
___
|
||||
|
||||
- Bind the network interface to the SMB service
|
||||
|
||||
### ZoL (zfs-generic-nfs, zfs-generic-iscsi)
|
||||
|
||||
___
|
||||
|
||||
Ensure ssh and zfs is installed on the nfs/iscsi server and that you have installed
|
||||
`targetcli`.
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
sudo yum install targetcli -y
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
sudo apt-get -y install targetcli-fb
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Synology (synology-iscsi)
|
||||
|
||||
___
|
||||
Ensure iSCSI Manager has been installed and is generally setup/configured.
|
||||
|
||||
### :wrench: YAML Values configuration
|
||||
|
||||
___
|
||||
Instruct `Democratic-CSI` to use `sudo` by uncommenting the following in your configuration template:
|
||||
|
||||
```yaml
|
||||
zfs:
|
||||
cli:
|
||||
sudoEnabled: true
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
As you read at the [Storage server preperation](#wrench-storage-server-preperation), YAML configuration comes in two flavours. *With* and *without* API configuration.
|
||||
|
||||
Starting with TrueNAS CORE 12 it is also possible to use an `apiKey` instead of the user/root password for the HTTP connection. The `apiKey` can be generated by clicking on the `Settings icon` -> `API Keys` -> `ADD`
|

## :wrench: Helm Installation
|
||||
|
||||
___
|
||||
Copy proper example Values file from the examples:
|
||||
[API without SSH](https://github.com/D1StrX/democratic-csi/blob/667354978e497fb4624d52e909609ca278e4bd25/examples/api-without-ssh)
|
||||
[API with SSH](https://github.com/D1StrX/democratic-csi/blob/667354978e497fb4624d52e909609ca278e4bd25/examples/api-with-ssh)
|
||||
|
||||
Add the `Democratic-CSI` Helm repository:
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
helm search repo democratic-csi/
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Update your Helm repository to get latest charts:
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
helm repo update
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Helm V3
|
||||
|
||||
___
|
||||
|
||||
Install `Democratic-CSI` with your configured values. Helm V3 requires that you `--create-namespace`
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
helm install zfs-nfs democratic-csi/democratic-csi --values truenas-isci.yaml --create-namespace democratic-csi
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Update/Upgrade Values:
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
helm upgrade <name> democratic-csi/democratic-csi --values <freenas-*>.yaml --namespace <namespace>
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Helm V2
|
||||
|
||||
___
|
||||
Install `Democratic-CSI` with your configured values.
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
helm upgrade \
|
||||
--install \
|
||||
--values freenas-nfs.yaml \
|
||||
--namespace democratic-csi \
|
||||
zfs-nfs democratic-csi/democratic-csi
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### On non standard Kubelet paths
|
||||
|
||||
Some distrobutions, such as `minikube` and `microk8s` use a non-standard kubelet path. In such cases it is ecessary to provide a new kubelet host path, microk8s example below:
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
microk8s helm upgrade \
|
||||
--install \
|
||||
--values freenas-nfs.yaml \
|
||||
--set node.kubeletHostPath="/var/snap/microk8s/common/var/lib/kubelet" \
|
||||
--namespace democratic-csi \
|
||||
zfs-nfs democratic-csi/democratic-csi
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
- microk8s - `/var/snap/microk8s/common/var/lib/kubelet`
|
||||
- pivotal - `/var/vcap/data/kubelet`
|
||||
|
||||
### OpenShift
|
||||
|
||||
`Democratic-CSI` generally works fine with openshift. Some special parameters
|
||||
need to be set with helm (support added in chart version `0.6.1`):
|
||||
|
||||
*NOTE:* for sure required
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
--set node.rbac.openshift.privileged=true
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
--set node.driver.localtimeHostPath=false
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
*NOTE:* Unlikely, but in special circumstances may be required
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
--set controller.rbac.openshift.privileged=true
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### **Nomad**
|
||||
|
||||
`Democratic-CSI` works with Nomad in a functioning but limted capacity. See the [Nomad docs](docs/nomad.md) for details.
|
||||
|
||||
## :wrench: **Multiple Deployments**
|
||||
|
||||
You may install multiple deployments of each/any driver. It requires the following:
|
||||
|
||||
- Use a new helm release name for each deployment
|
||||
- Make sure you have a unique `csiDriver.name` in the values file
|
||||
- Use unqiue names for your storage classes (per cluster)
|
||||
- Use a unique parent dataset (ie: don't try to use the same parent across deployments or clusters)
|
||||
|
||||
## :wrench: **Snapshot Support**
|
||||
|
||||
[**External-snapshotter CRD**](https://github.com/kubernetes-csi/external-snapshotter/tree/master/client/config/crd)
|
||||
Install beta (v1.17+) CRDs (one per cluster):
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
kubectl apply -f snapshot.storage.k8s.io_volumesnapshotclasses.yaml
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
kubectl apply -f snapshot.storage.k8s.io_volumesnapshotcontents.yaml
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
kubectl apply -f snapshot.storage.k8s.io_volumesnapshots.yaml
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
[**External-snapshotter Controller**](https://github.com/kubernetes-csi/external-snapshotter/tree/master/deploy/kubernetes/snapshot-controller)
|
||||
Install snapshot controller (once per cluster):
|
||||
Add `--namespace` references to your need.
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
kubectl apply -f rbac-snapshot-controller.yaml
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
kubectl apply -f setup-snapshot-controller.yaml
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Install `Democratic-CSI` with `volumeSnapshotClasses` appropriatly defined.

## :wrench: Migrating from freenas-provisioner and freenas-iscsi-provisioner
|
||||
|
||||
It is possible to migrate all volumes from the non-csi freenas provisioners
|
||||
to `Democratic-CSI`.
|
||||
|
||||
Copy the `contrib/freenas-provisioner-to-democratic-csi.sh` script from the project to your workstation. Read the script in detail, and edit the variables
|
||||
to your needs to start migrating!
