Sylvain Desbureaux557628a2021-03-24 14:59:16 +010018OOM User Guide helm3 (experimental)
19###################################
Roger Maitland953b5f12018-03-22 15:24:04 -040020
21The ONAP Operations Manager (OOM) provide the ability to manage the entire
22life-cycle of an ONAP installation, from the initial deployment to final
23decommissioning. This guide provides instructions for users of ONAP to
24use the Kubernetes_/Helm_ system as a complete ONAP management system.
25
26This guide provides many examples of Helm command line operations. For a
27complete description of these commands please refer to the `Helm
28Documentation`_.

32
33The following sections describe the life-cycle operations:
34
35- Deploy_ - with built-in component dependency management
36- Configure_ - unified configuration across all ONAP components
37- Monitor_ - real-time health monitoring feeding to a Consul UI and Kubernetes
38- Heal_- failed ONAP containers are recreated automatically
39- Scale_ - cluster ONAP services to enable seamless scaling
Eric Debeau993b77b2020-08-19 15:30:00 +020040- Upgrade_ - change-out containers or configuration with little or no service
41 impact
Roger Maitland953b5f12018-03-22 15:24:04 -040042- Delete_ - cleanup individual containers or entire deployments

50The OOM team with assistance from the ONAP project teams, have built a
51comprehensive set of Helm charts, yaml files very similar to TOSCA files, that
52describe the composition of each of the ONAP components and the relationship
53within and between components. Using this model Helm is able to deploy all of
Roger Maitlandbb8adda2018-04-05 16:18:11 -040054ONAP with a few simple commands.
55
56Pre-requisites
57--------------
Piotr Marcinkiewicz2ca8a472021-04-29 13:29:02 +020058Your environment must have the Kubernetes `kubectl` with Cert-Manager
59and Helm setup as a one time activity.
Roger Maitlandbb8adda2018-04-05 16:18:11 -040060
61Install Kubectl
62~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Sylvain Desbureaux983c7552019-01-28 13:59:43 +010063Enter the following to install kubectl (on Ubuntu, there are slight differences
64on other O/Ss), the Kubernetes command line interface used to manage a
65Kubernetes cluster::
Roger Maitlandbb8adda2018-04-05 16:18:11 -040066
ramagp060a51c2020-10-29 04:24:16 +000067 > curl -LO https://storage.googleapis.com/kubernetes-release/release/v1.15.11/bin/linux/amd64/kubectl
Roger Maitlandbb8adda2018-04-05 16:18:11 -040068 > chmod +x ./kubectl
69 > sudo mv ./kubectl /usr/local/bin/kubectl
70 > mkdir ~/.kube
71
Sylvain Desbureaux983c7552019-01-28 13:59:43 +010072Paste kubectl config from Rancher (see the :ref:`cloud-setup-guide-label` for
73alternative Kubernetes environment setups) into the `~/.kube/config` file.
Roger Maitlandbb8adda2018-04-05 16:18:11 -040074
75Verify that the Kubernetes config is correct::
76
77 > kubectl get pods --all-namespaces
78
ramagp060a51c2020-10-29 04:24:16 +000079At this point you should see Kubernetes pods running.
Roger Maitlandbb8adda2018-04-05 16:18:11 -040080
Piotr Marcinkiewicz2ca8a472021-04-29 13:29:02 +020081Install Cert-Manager
82~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
83Details on how to install Cert-Manager can be found
84:doc:`here <oom_setup_paas>`.
85
Roger Maitlandbb8adda2018-04-05 16:18:11 -040086Install Helm
87~~~~~~~~~~~~
Sylvain Desbureaux983c7552019-01-28 13:59:43 +010088Helm is used by OOM for package and configuration management. To install Helm,
89enter the following::
Roger Maitlandbb8adda2018-04-05 16:18:11 -040090
Sylvain Desbureaux557628a2021-03-24 14:59:16 +010091 > wget https://get.helm.sh/helm-v3.5.2-linux-amd64.tar.gz
92 > tar -zxvf helm-v3.5.2-linux-amd64.tar.gz
Roger Maitlandbb8adda2018-04-05 16:18:11 -040093 > sudo mv linux-amd64/helm /usr/local/bin/helm
94
95Verify the Helm version with::
96
97 > helm version
98
Roger Maitlandbb8adda2018-04-05 16:18:11 -040099Install the Helm Repo
100---------------------
Sylvain Desbureaux983c7552019-01-28 13:59:43 +0100101Once kubectl and Helm are setup, one needs to setup a local Helm server to
102server up the ONAP charts::
Roger Maitland953b5f12018-03-22 15:24:04 -0400103
104 > helm install osn/onap
105
106.. note::
107 The osn repo is not currently available so creation of a local repository is
108 required.
109
110Helm is able to use charts served up from a repository and comes setup with a
111default CNCF provided `Curated applications for Kubernetes`_ repository called
112stable which should be removed to avoid confusion::
113
114 > helm repo remove stable
115
116.. To setup the Open Source Networking Nexus repository for helm enter::
117.. > helm repo add osn 'https://nexus3.onap.org:10001/helm/helm-repo-in-nexus/master/'
118
119To prepare your system for an installation of ONAP, you'll need to::
120
Sylvain Desbureaux557628a2021-03-24 14:59:16 +0100121 > git clone -b guilin --recurse-submodules -j2 http://gerrit.onap.org/r/oom
Roger Maitlandbb8adda2018-04-05 16:18:11 -0400122 > cd oom/kubernetes
123
Roger Maitland953b5f12018-03-22 15:24:04 -0400124
Sylvain Desbureaux557628a2021-03-24 14:59:16 +0100125To install a local Helm server::
126
127 > curl -LO https://s3.amazonaws.com/chartmuseum/release/latest/bin/linux/amd64/chartmuseum
128 > chmod +x ./chartmuseum
129 > mv ./chartmuseum /usr/local/bin
130
Roger Maitland953b5f12018-03-22 15:24:04 -0400131To setup a local Helm server to server up the ONAP charts::
132
Sylvain Desbureaux557628a2021-03-24 14:59:16 +0100133 > mkdir -p ~/helm3-storage
134 > chartmuseum --storage local --storage-local-rootdir ~/helm3-storage -port 8879 &
Roger Maitland953b5f12018-03-22 15:24:04 -0400135
Sylvain Desbureaux983c7552019-01-28 13:59:43 +0100136Note the port number that is listed and use it in the Helm repo add as
137follows::
Roger Maitland953b5f12018-03-22 15:24:04 -0400138
139 > helm repo add local http://127.0.0.1:8879
140
141To get a list of all of the available Helm chart repositories::
142
143 > helm repo list
144 NAME URL
145 local http://127.0.0.1:8879
146
Roger Maitland9e5067c2018-03-27 10:57:08 -0400147Then build your local Helm repository::
148
Jakub Latusekdb52a6d2020-10-15 15:02:47 +0200149 > make SKIP_LINT=TRUE [HELM_BIN=<HELM_PATH>] all
150
151`HELM_BIN`
Sylvain Desbureaux557628a2021-03-24 14:59:16 +0100152 Sets the helm binary to be used. The default value use helm from PATH
Roger Maitland9e5067c2018-03-27 10:57:08 -0400153
Roger Maitland953b5f12018-03-22 15:24:04 -0400154The Helm search command reads through all of the repositories configured on the
155system, and looks for matches::
156
Sylvain Desbureaux557628a2021-03-24 14:59:16 +0100157 > helm search repo local
Roger Maitland953b5f12018-03-22 15:24:04 -0400158 NAME VERSION DESCRIPTION
Sylvain Desbureaux557628a2021-03-24 14:59:16 +0100159 local/appc 2.0.0 Application Controller
160 local/clamp 2.0.0 ONAP Clamp
161 local/common 2.0.0 Common templates for inclusion in other charts
162 local/onap 2.0.0 Open Network Automation Platform (ONAP)
163 local/robot 2.0.0 A helm Chart for kubernetes-ONAP Robot
164 local/so 2.0.0 ONAP Service Orchestrator
Roger Maitland953b5f12018-03-22 15:24:04 -0400165
166In any case, setup of the Helm repository is a one time activity.
167
ramagp060a51c2020-10-29 04:24:16 +0000168Next, install Helm Plugins required to deploy the ONAP release::
Pawel Wieczorek1d4b96f2019-01-23 16:46:56 +0100169
Sylvain Desbureaux557628a2021-03-24 14:59:16 +0100170 > cp -R ~/oom/kubernetes/helm/plugins/ ~/.local/share/helm/plugins
Pawel Wieczorek1d4b96f2019-01-23 16:46:56 +0100171
Sylvain Desbureaux983c7552019-01-28 13:59:43 +0100172Once the repo is setup, installation of ONAP can be done with a single
173command::
Roger Maitland953b5f12018-03-22 15:24:04 -0400174
ramagp060a51c2020-10-29 04:24:16 +0000175 > helm deploy development local/onap --namespace onap --set global.masterPassword=password
Roger Maitland953b5f12018-03-22 15:24:04 -0400176
177This will install ONAP from a local repository in a 'development' Helm release.
178As described below, to override the default configuration values provided by
179OOM, an environment file can be provided on the command line as follows::
180
ramagp060a51c2020-10-29 04:24:16 +0000181
182
183 > helm deploy development local/onap --namespace onap -f overrides.yaml --set global.masterPassword=password
184
185.. note::
186 Refer the Configure_ section on how to update overrides.yaml and values.yaml
Roger Maitland953b5f12018-03-22 15:24:04 -0400187
188To get a summary of the status of all of the pods (containers) running in your
189deployment::
190
ramagp060a51c2020-10-29 04:24:16 +0000191 > kubectl get pods --namespace onap -o=wide
Roger Maitland953b5f12018-03-22 15:24:04 -0400192
193.. note::
194 The Kubernetes namespace concept allows for multiple instances of a component
195 (such as all of ONAP) to co-exist with other components in the same
196 Kubernetes cluster by isolating them entirely. Namespaces share only the
197 hosts that form the cluster thus providing isolation between production and
ramagp060a51c2020-10-29 04:24:16 +0000198 development systems as an example.
Roger Maitland953b5f12018-03-22 15:24:04 -0400199
200.. note::
Roger Maitlandd96413f2018-04-09 10:06:07 -0400201 The Helm `--name` option refers to a release name and not a Kubernetes namespace.
Roger Maitland953b5f12018-03-22 15:24:04 -0400202
203
204To install a specific version of a single ONAP component (`so` in this example)
Pawel Wieczorek1d4b96f2019-01-23 16:46:56 +0100205with the given release name enter::
Roger Maitland953b5f12018-03-22 15:24:04 -0400206
ramagp060a51c2020-10-29 04:24:16 +0000207 > helm deploy so onap/so --version 8.0.0 --set global.masterPassword=password --set global.flavor=unlimited --namespace onap
208
209.. note::
210 The dependent components should be installed for component being installed
211
Roger Maitland953b5f12018-03-22 15:24:04 -0400212
213To display details of a specific resource or group of resources type::
214
215 > kubectl describe pod so-1071802958-6twbl
216
217where the pod identifier refers to the auto-generated pod identifier.

222Configure
223=========
224
225Each project within ONAP has its own configuration data generally consisting
226of: environment variables, configuration files, and database initial values.
227Many technologies are used across the projects resulting in significant
228operational complexity and an inability to apply global parameters across the
229entire ONAP deployment. OOM solves this problem by introducing a common
230configuration technology, Helm charts, that provide a hierarchical
Gildas Lanilis64d17ae2018-05-18 16:58:05 -0700231configuration with the ability to override values with higher
Roger Maitland953b5f12018-03-22 15:24:04 -0400232level charts or command line options.
233
234The structure of the configuration of ONAP is shown in the following diagram.
235Note that key/value pairs of a parent will always take precedence over those
236of a child. Also note that values set on the command line have the highest
237precedence of all.
238

247 oReq [label="requirements.yaml"]
248 soValues [label="values.yaml"]

262 so -> soValues
263 so -> soReq
264 so -> charts
265 charts -> mariadb
266 mariadb -> mdValues
267
268 }
269
270The top level onap/values.yaml file contains the values required to be set
271before deploying ONAP. Here is the contents of this file:
272
Pawel Wieczoreka1903d62019-11-14 14:19:59 +0100273.. include:: ../kubernetes/onap/values.yaml
Roger Maitland953b5f12018-03-22 15:24:04 -0400274 :code: yaml
275
276One may wish to create a value file that is specific to a given deployment such
277that it can be differentiated from other deployments. For example, a
278onap-development.yaml file may create a minimal environment for development
279while onap-production.yaml might describe a production deployment that operates
280independently of the developer version.
281
282For example, if the production OpenStack instance was different from a
283developer's instance, the onap-production.yaml file may contain a different
284value for the vnfDeployment/openstack/oam_network_cidr key as shown below.

315To deploy ONAP with this environment file, enter::
316
ramagp060a51c2020-10-29 04:24:16 +0000317 > helm deploy local/onap -n onap -f onap/resources/environments/onap-production.yaml --set global.masterPassword=password

320 :code: yaml
321
322When deploying all of ONAP a requirements.yaml file control which and what
323version of the ONAP components are included. Here is an excerpt of this
324file:
325
326.. code-block:: yaml

328 # Referencing a named repo called 'local'.

ramagp060a51c2020-10-29 04:24:16 +0000335 version: ~8.0.0
Roger Maitland953b5f12018-03-22 15:24:04 -0400336 repository: '@local'
337 condition: so.enabled
338 <...>
339
ramagp060a51c2020-10-29 04:24:16 +0000340The ~ operator in the `so` version value indicates that the latest "8.X.X"
Roger Maitland953b5f12018-03-22 15:24:04 -0400341version of `so` shall be used thus allowing the chart to allow for minor
ramagp060a51c2020-10-29 04:24:16 +0000342upgrades that don't impact the so API; hence, version 8.0.1 will be installed
Roger Maitland953b5f12018-03-22 15:24:04 -0400343in this case.
344
ramagp060a51c2020-10-29 04:24:16 +0000345The onap/resources/environment/dev.yaml (see the excerpt below) enables
Roger Maitland953b5f12018-03-22 15:24:04 -0400346for fine grained control on what components are included as part of this
347deployment. By changing this `so` line to `enabled: false` the `so` component
348will not be deployed. If this change is part of an upgrade the existing `so`
349component will be shut down. Other `so` parameters and even `so` child values
350can be modified, for example the `so`'s `liveness` probe could be disabled
351(which is not recommended as this change would disable auto-healing of `so`).

384------------------------------------------------------------
385
386The ONAP deployment created by OOM operates in a private IP network that isn't
Eric Debeau993b77b2020-08-19 15:30:00 +0200387publicly accessible (i.e. OpenStack VMs with private internal network) which

389user's own environment (a laptop etc.) the portal application's port 8989 is
390exposed through a `Kubernetes LoadBalancer`_ object.
391
Sylvain Desbureaux983c7552019-01-28 13:59:43 +0100392Typically, to be able to access the Kubernetes nodes publicly a public address
Eric Debeau993b77b2020-08-19 15:30:00 +0200393is assigned. In OpenStack this is a floating IP address.
Roger Maitlandda221582018-05-10 13:43:58 -0400394
395When the `portal-app` chart is deployed a Kubernetes service is created that
396instantiates a load balancer. The LB chooses the private interface of one of
397the nodes as in the example below (10.0.0.4 is private to the K8s cluster only).
398Then to be able to access the portal on port 8989 from outside the K8s &
Eric Debeau993b77b2020-08-19 15:30:00 +0200399OpenStack environment, the user needs to assign/get the floating IP address that
Roger Maitlandda221582018-05-10 13:43:58 -0400400corresponds to the private IP as follows::
401
402 > kubectl -n onap get services|grep "portal-app"
403 portal-app LoadBalancer 10.43.142.201 10.0.0.4 8989:30215/TCP,8006:30213/TCP,8010:30214/TCP 1d app=portal-app,release=dev
404
405
406In this example, use the 10.0.0.4 private address as a key find the
407corresponding public address which in this example is 10.12.6.155. If you're
Eric Debeau993b77b2020-08-19 15:30:00 +0200408using OpenStack you'll do the lookup with the horizon GUI or the OpenStack CLI
Roger Maitlandda221582018-05-10 13:43:58 -0400409for your tenant (openstack server list). That IP is then used in your
410`/etc/hosts` to map the fixed DNS aliases required by the ONAP Portal as shown

Hector Anapan-Lavalle55547da2018-07-26 13:33:17 -0400445 | Alternatives Considered:
446
guillaume.lambertf3319a82021-09-26 21:37:50 +0200447 - Kubernetes port forwarding was considered but discarded as it would
448 require the end user to run a script that opens up port forwarding tunnels
449 to each of the pods that provides a portal application widget.
Hector Anapan-Lavalle55547da2018-07-26 13:33:17 -0400450
451 - Reverting to a VNC server similar to what was deployed in the Amsterdam
guillaume.lambertf3319a82021-09-26 21:37:50 +0200452 release was also considered but there were many issues with resolution,
453 lack of volume mount, /etc/hosts dynamic update, file upload that were
454 a tall order to solve in time for the Beijing release.
Hector Anapan-Lavalle55547da2018-07-26 13:33:17 -0400455
456 Observations:
457
guillaume.lambertf3319a82021-09-26 21:37:50 +0200458 - If you are not using floating IPs in your Kubernetes deployment and
459 directly attaching a public IP address (i.e. by using your public provider
460 network) to your K8S Node VMs' network interface, then the output of
461 'kubectl -n onap get services | grep "portal-app"'
Hector Anapan-Lavalle55547da2018-07-26 13:33:17 -0400462 will show your public IP instead of the private network's IP. Therefore,
guillaume.lambertf3319a82021-09-26 21:37:50 +0200463 you can grab this public IP directly (as compared to trying to find the
464 floating IP first) and map this IP in /etc/hosts.

469Monitor
470=======
471
472All highly available systems include at least one facility to monitor the
473health of components within the system. Such health monitors are often used as
Eric Debeau993b77b2020-08-19 15:30:00 +0200474inputs to distributed coordination systems (such as etcd, Zookeeper, or Consul)
475and monitoring systems (such as Nagios or Zabbix). OOM provides two mechanisms
Roger Maitland953b5f12018-03-22 15:24:04 -0400476to monitor the real-time health of an ONAP deployment:
477
478- a Consul GUI for a human operator or downstream monitoring systems and
479 Kubernetes liveness probes that enable automatic healing of failed
480 containers, and
481- a set of liveness probes which feed into the Kubernetes manager which
482 are described in the Heal section.
483
Sylvain Desbureaux983c7552019-01-28 13:59:43 +0100484Within ONAP, Consul is the monitoring system of choice and deployed by OOM in
485two parts:
Roger Maitland953b5f12018-03-22 15:24:04 -0400486
487- a three-way, centralized Consul server cluster is deployed as a highly
Gildas Lanilis64d17ae2018-05-18 16:58:05 -0700488 available monitor of all of the ONAP components, and
Roger Maitland953b5f12018-03-22 15:24:04 -0400489- a number of Consul agents.
490
491The Consul server provides a user interface that allows a user to graphically
492view the current health status of all of the ONAP components for which agents
493have been created - a sample from the ONAP Integration labs follows:
494

Eric Debeauc4e405f2020-12-07 14:49:52 +0100498To see the real-time health of a deployment go to: ``http://<kubernetes IP>:30270/ui/``

506 :align: right
507
508Heal
509====
510
511The ONAP deployment is defined by Helm charts as mentioned earlier. These Helm
512charts are also used to implement automatic recoverability of ONAP components
513when individual components fail. Once ONAP is deployed, a "liveness" probe
514starts checking the health of the components after a specified startup time.
515
516Should a liveness probe indicate a failed container it will be terminated and a
517replacement will be started in its place - containers are ephemeral. Should the
518deployment specification indicate that there are one or more dependencies to
519this container or component (for example a dependency on a database) the
520dependency will be satisfied before the replacement container/component is
521started. This mechanism ensures that, after a failure, all of the ONAP
522components restart successfully.
523
524To test healing, the following command can be used to delete a pod::
525
526 > kubectl delete pod [pod name] -n [pod namespace]
527
528One could then use the following command to monitor the pods and observe the
529pod being terminated and the service being automatically healed with the
530creation of a replacement pod::
531
532 > kubectl get pods --all-namespaces -o=wide
533
534.. figure:: oomLogoV2-Scale.png
535 :align: right
536
537Scale
538=====
539
540Many of the ONAP components are horizontally scalable which allows them to
541adapt to expected offered load. During the Beijing release scaling is static,
542that is during deployment or upgrade a cluster size is defined and this cluster
543will be maintained even in the presence of faults. The parameter that controls
544the cluster size of a given component is found in the values.yaml file for that
545component. Here is an excerpt that shows this parameter:
546
547.. code-block:: yaml
548
549 # default number of instances
550 replicaCount: 1
551
552In order to change the size of a cluster, an operator could use a helm upgrade
553(described in detail in the next section) as follows::
554
ramagp060a51c2020-10-29 04:24:16 +0000555 > helm upgrade [RELEASE] [CHART] [flags]
556
557The RELEASE argument can be obtained from the following command::
558
559 > helm list
560
561Below is the example for the same::
562
563 > helm list

569
570Here the Name column shows the RELEASE NAME, In our case we want to try the
571scale operation on cassandra, thus the RELEASE NAME would be dev-cassandra.
572
573Now we need to obtain the chart name for casssandra. Use the below
574command to get the chart name::
575
576 > helm search cassandra
577
578Below is the example for the same::
579
580 > helm search cassandra
581 NAME CHART VERSION APP VERSION DESCRIPTION
582 local/cassandra 8.0.0 ONAP cassandra
583 local/portal-cassandra 8.0.0 Portal cassandra
584 local/aaf-cass 8.0.0 ONAP AAF cassandra
585 local/sdc-cs 8.0.0 ONAP Service Design and Creation Cassandra
586
587Here the Name column shows the chart name. As we want to try the scale
588operation for cassandra, thus the correponding chart name is local/cassandra
589
590
591Now we have both the command's arguments, thus we can perform the
592scale opeartion for cassandra as follows::
593
594 > helm upgrade dev-cassandra local/cassandra --set replicaCount=3
595
596Using this command we can scale up or scale down the cassadra db instances.
597
Roger Maitland953b5f12018-03-22 15:24:04 -0400598
599The ONAP components use Kubernetes provided facilities to build clustered,
600highly available systems including: Services_ with load-balancers, ReplicaSet_,
601and StatefulSet_. Some of the open-source projects used by the ONAP components
602directly support clustered configurations, for example ODL and MariaDB Galera.
603
604The Kubernetes Services_ abstraction to provide a consistent access point for
605each of the ONAP components, independent of the pod or container architecture
606of that component. For example, SDN-C uses OpenDaylight clustering with a
607default cluster size of three but uses a Kubernetes service to and change the
608number of pods in this abstract this cluster from the other ONAP components
609such that the cluster could change size and this change is isolated from the
610other ONAP components by the load-balancer implemented in the ODL service
611abstraction.
612
613A ReplicaSet_ is a construct that is used to describe the desired state of the
614cluster. For example 'replicas: 3' indicates to Kubernetes that a cluster of 3
615instances is the desired state. Should one of the members of the cluster fail,
616a new member will be automatically started to replace it.
617
618Some of the ONAP components many need a more deterministic deployment; for
619example to enable intra-cluster communication. For these applications the
620component can be deployed as a Kubernetes StatefulSet_ which will maintain a
621persistent identifier for the pods and thus a stable network id for the pods.
622For example: the pod names might be web-0, web-1, web-{N-1} for N 'web' pods
623with corresponding DNS entries such that intra service communication is simple
624even if the pods are physically distributed across multiple nodes. An example
625of how these capabilities can be used is described in the Running Consul on
626Kubernetes tutorial.
627
628.. figure:: oomLogoV2-Upgrade.png
629 :align: right
630
631Upgrade
632=======
633
634Helm has built-in capabilities to enable the upgrade of pods without causing a
635loss of the service being provided by that pod or pods (if configured as a
636cluster). As described in the OOM Developer's Guide, ONAP components provide
637an abstracted 'service' end point with the pods or containers providing this
638service hidden from other ONAP components by a load balancer. This capability
639is used during upgrades to allow a pod with a new image to be added to the
640service before removing the pod with the old image. This 'make before break'
641capability ensures minimal downtime.
642
643Prior to doing an upgrade, determine of the status of the deployed charts::
644
645 > helm list
646 NAME REVISION UPDATED STATUS CHART NAMESPACE
ramagp060a51c2020-10-29 04:24:16 +0000647 so 1 Mon Feb 5 10:05:22 2020 DEPLOYED so-8.0.0 onap
Roger Maitland953b5f12018-03-22 15:24:04 -0400648
649When upgrading a cluster a parameter controls the minimum size of the cluster
650during the upgrade while another parameter controls the maximum number of nodes
651in the cluster. For example, SNDC configured as a 3-way ODL cluster might
652require that during the upgrade no fewer than 2 pods are available at all times
653to provide service while no more than 5 pods are ever deployed across the two
654versions at any one time to avoid depleting the cluster of resources. In this
655scenario, the SDNC cluster would start with 3 old pods then Kubernetes may add
656a new pod (3 old, 1 new), delete one old (2 old, 1 new), add two new pods (2
657old, 3 new) and finally delete the 2 old pods (3 new). During this sequence
658the constraints of the minimum of two pods and maximum of five would be
659maintained while providing service the whole time.
660
661Initiation of an upgrade is triggered by changes in the Helm charts. For
662example, if the image specified for one of the pods in the SDNC deployment
663specification were to change (i.e. point to a new Docker image in the nexus3
664repository - commonly through the change of a deployment variable), the
665sequence of events described in the previous paragraph would be initiated.
666
667For example, to upgrade a container by changing configuration, specifically an
668environment value::
669
ramagp060a51c2020-10-29 04:24:16 +0000670 > helm upgrade so onap/so --version 8.0.1 --set enableDebug=true
Roger Maitland953b5f12018-03-22 15:24:04 -0400671
672Issuing this command will result in the appropriate container being stopped by
673Kubernetes and replaced with a new container with the new environment value.
674
675To upgrade a component to a new version with a new configuration file enter::
676
ramagp060a51c2020-10-29 04:24:16 +0000677 > helm upgrade so onap/so --version 8.0.1 -f environments/demo.yaml
Roger Maitland953b5f12018-03-22 15:24:04 -0400678
679To fetch release history enter::
680
681 > helm history so

684 2 Mon Feb 5 10:10:55 2020 DEPLOYED so-8.0.1 Upgrade complete
Roger Maitland953b5f12018-03-22 15:24:04 -0400685
686Unfortunately, not all upgrades are successful. In recognition of this the
687lineup of pods within an ONAP deployment is tagged such that an administrator
688may force the ONAP deployment back to the previously tagged configuration or to
689a specific configuration, say to jump back two steps if an incompatibility
690between two ONAP components is discovered after the two individual upgrades
691succeeded.
692
693This rollback functionality gives the administrator confidence that in the
694unfortunate circumstance of a failed upgrade the system can be rapidly brought
695back to a known good state. This process of rolling upgrades while under
696service is illustrated in this short YouTube video showing a Zero Downtime
697Upgrade of a web application while under a 10 million transaction per second
698load.
699
700For example, to roll-back back to previous system revision enter::
701
702 > helm rollback so 1
703
704 > helm history so

710.. note::
711
712 The description field can be overridden to document actions taken or include
713 tracking numbers.
714
715Many of the ONAP components contain their own databases which are used to
716record configuration or state information. The schemas of these databases may
717change from version to version in such a way that data stored within the
718database needs to be migrated between versions. If such a migration script is
719available it can be invoked during the upgrade (or rollback) by Container
720Lifecycle Hooks. Two such hooks are available, PostStart and PreStop, which
721containers can access by registering a handler against one or both. Note that
722it is the responsibility of the ONAP component owners to implement the hook
723handlers - which could be a shell script or a call to a specific container HTTP
724endpoint - following the guidelines listed on the Kubernetes site. Lifecycle
725hooks are not restricted to database migration or even upgrades but can be used
726anywhere specific operations need to be taken during lifecycle operations.
727
728OOM uses Helm K8S package manager to deploy ONAP components. Each component is
729arranged in a packaging format called a chart - a collection of files that
730describe a set of k8s resources. Helm allows for rolling upgrades of the ONAP
731component deployed. To upgrade a component Helm release you will need an
732updated Helm chart. The chart might have modified, deleted or added values,
733deployment yamls, and more. To get the release name use::
734
735 > helm ls
736
737To easily upgrade the release use::
738
739 > helm upgrade [RELEASE] [CHART]
740
741To roll back to a previous release version use::
742
743 > helm rollback [flags] [RELEASE] [REVISION]
744
745For example, to upgrade the onap-so helm release to the latest SO container
746release v1.1.2:
747
748- Edit so values.yaml which is part of the chart
749- Change "so: nexus3.onap.org:10001/openecomp/so:v1.1.1" to
750 "so: nexus3.onap.org:10001/openecomp/so:v1.1.2"
751- From the chart location run::
752
753 > helm upgrade onap-so
754
755The previous so pod will be terminated and a new so pod with an updated so
756container will be created.

761Delete
762======
763
764Existing deployments can be partially or fully removed once they are no longer
765needed. To minimize errors it is recommended that before deleting components
766from a running deployment the operator perform a 'dry-run' to display exactly
ramagp060a51c2020-10-29 04:24:16 +0000767what will happen with a given command prior to actually deleting anything.

Sylvain Desbureaux5e19e242020-03-02 14:41:48 +0100770 > helm undeploy onap --dry-run
Roger Maitland953b5f12018-03-22 15:24:04 -0400771
Sylvain Desbureaux5e19e242020-03-02 14:41:48 +0100772will display the outcome of deleting the 'onap' release from the
Sylvain Desbureaux983c7552019-01-28 13:59:43 +0100773deployment.
Roger Maitland953b5f12018-03-22 15:24:04 -0400774To completely delete a release and remove it from the internal store enter::
775
Sylvain Desbureaux557628a2021-03-24 14:59:16 +0100776 > helm undeploy onap
Roger Maitland953b5f12018-03-22 15:24:04 -0400777
ramagp060a51c2020-10-29 04:24:16 +0000778Once complete undeploy is done then delete the namespace as well
779using following command::
780
781 > kubectl delete namespace <name of namespace>
782
783.. note::
784 You need to provide the namespace name which you used during deployment,
785 below is the example::
786
787 > kubectl delete namespace onap
788
Roger Maitland953b5f12018-03-22 15:24:04 -0400789One can also remove individual components from a deployment by changing the
790ONAP configuration values. For example, to remove `so` from a running
791deployment enter::
792
Sylvain Desbureaux557628a2021-03-24 14:59:16 +0100793 > helm undeploy onap-so
Roger Maitland953b5f12018-03-22 15:24:04 -0400794
795will remove `so` as the configuration indicates it's no longer part of the
796deployment. This might be useful if a one wanted to replace just `so` by
Sylvain Desbureaux983c7552019-01-28 13:59:43 +0100797installing a custom version.
