You can skip this step if your Kubernetes cluster deployment is on a single VM. |
When setting up a Kubernetes cluster, the folder /dockerdata-nfs must be shared between all of the Kubernetes worker nodes. This folder is used as a volume by the ONAP pods to share data, so there can only be one copy.
On this page we will attempt to do this by setting up an NFS server on the Kubernetes Master and then mount the shared directory on all Kubernetes worker nodes.
These instruction where written using VMs created from a ubuntu-16.04-server-cloudimg-amd64-disk1 image.
Any user can be used to run the steps in this page, as all the commands are "sudo".
The actual /dockerdata-nfs folder will live on Kubernetes Master node which will also be running the NFS server to export this folder.
Choose one of the following to create the /dockerdata-nfs folder on this VM:
Use local directory | Run the following command as root:
| |
---|---|---|
Use separate volume | Following instruction from Create an OpenStack Volume to: (where the VM Instance is the one that you have chosen) |
Execute the following commands as ubuntu user.
sudo apt update sudo apt install nfs-kernel-server sudo vi /etc/exports # append the following /dockerdata-nfs *(rw,no_root_squash,no_subtree_check) sudo service nfs-kernel-server restart |
$ ps -ef|grep nfs |
On each of the Kubernetes worker nodes, mount the /dockerdata-nfs folder. Run the followings as ubuntu user.
sudo apt update sudo apt install nfs-common -y sudo mkdir /dockerdata-nfs sudo chmod 777 /dockerdata-nfs # Option 1: sudo mount -t nfs -o proto=tcp,port=2049 <hostname or IP address of NFS server>:/dockerdata-nfs /dockerdata-nfs sudo vi /etc/fstab # append the following <hostname or IP address of NFS server>:/dockerdata-nfs /dockerdata-nfs nfs auto 0 0 # Option 2: sudo vi /etc/fstab # append the following line. <hostname or IP address of NFS server>:/dockerdata-nfs /dockerdata-nfs nfs auto 0 0 # run the following line sudo mount -a |
Tocuh a file inside /dockerdata-nfs directory on the Kubernetes Master and check to see if the same file is found under /dockerdata-nfs on all Kubernetes worker nodes.
Use the lazy (-l) option on Kubernetes worker nodes to force unmount the mount point.
For example,
sudo umount -l /dockerdata-nfs
