27ONAP consists of a large number of components, each of which are substantial
28projects within themselves, which results in a high degree of complexity in
29deployment and management. To cope with this complexity the ONAP Operations
30Manager (OOM) uses a Helm_ model of ONAP - Helm being the primary management
31system for Kubernetes_ container systems - to drive all user driven life-cycle
32management operations. The Helm model of ONAP is composed of a set of
33hierarchical Helm charts that define the structure of the ONAP components and
34the configuration of these components. These charts are fully parameterized
35such that a single environment file defines all of the parameters needed to
36deploy ONAP. A user of ONAP may maintain several such environment files to
37control the deployment of ONAP in multiple environments such as development,
38pre-production, and production.
39
40The following sections describe how the ONAP Helm charts are constructed.

47Container Background
48====================
49Linux containers allow for an application and all of its operating system
50dependencies to be packaged and deployed as a single unit without including a
51guest operating system as done with virtual machines. The most popular
52container solution is Docker_ which provides tools for container management
53like the Docker Host (dockerd) which can create, run, stop, move, or delete a
54container. Docker has a very popular registry of containers images that can be
55used by any Docker system; however, in the ONAP context, Docker images are
56built by the standard CI/CD flow and stored in Nexus_ repositories. OOM uses
57the "standard" ONAP docker containers and three new ones specifically created
58for OOM.
59
60Containers are isolated from each other primarily via name spaces within the
61Linux kernel without the need for multiple guest operating systems. As such,
62multiple containers can be deployed with little overhead such as all of ONAP
63can be deployed on a single host. With some optimization of the ONAP components
64(e.g. elimination of redundant database instances) it may be possible to deploy
65ONAP on a single laptop computer.

67Helm Charts
68===========
Roger Maitlandac643812018-03-28 09:52:34 -040069A Helm chart is a collection of files that describe a related set of Kubernetes
70resources. A simple chart might be used to deploy something simple, like a
71memcached pod, while a complex chart might contain many micro-service arranged
72in a hierarchy as found in the `aai` ONAP component.
Roger Maitland953b5f12018-03-22 15:24:04 -040073
Roger Maitlandac643812018-03-28 09:52:34 -040074Charts are created as files laid out in a particular directory tree, then they
75can be packaged into versioned archives to be deployed. There is a public
76archive of `Helm Charts`_ on GitHub that includes many technologies applicable
77to ONAP. Some of these charts have been used in ONAP and all of the ONAP charts
78have been created following the guidelines provided.
Roger Maitland953b5f12018-03-22 15:24:04 -040079

Roger Maitlandac643812018-03-28 09:52:34 -0400127The common section of charts consists of a set of templates that assist with
Sylvain Desbureaux60c74802019-12-12 14:35:01 +0100128parameter substitution (`_name.tpl`, `_namespace.tpl` and others) and a set of charts
129for components used throughout ONAP. When the common components are used by other charts they
130are instantiated each time or we can deploy a shared instances for several components.

Sylvain Desbureaux60c74802019-12-12 14:35:01 +0100161Note that the component charts / components may include a hierarchy of sub
162components and in themselves can be quite complex.
Roger Maitland953b5f12018-03-22 15:24:04 -0400163
Sylvain Desbureaux60c74802019-12-12 14:35:01 +0100164You can use either `charts` or `components` folder for your subcomponents.
165`charts` folder means that the subcomponent will always been deployed.
Roger Maitland953b5f12018-03-22 15:24:04 -0400166
Sylvain Desbureaux60c74802019-12-12 14:35:01 +0100167`components` folders means we can choose if we want to deploy the sub component.
168
169This choice is done in root `values.yaml`:
170
171.. code-block:: yaml
172
173 ---
174 global:
175 key: value
176
177 component1:
178 enabled: true
179 component2:
180 enabled: true
181
182Then in `requirements.yaml`, you'll use these values:
183
184.. code-block:: yaml
185
186 ---
187 dependencies:
188 - name: common
189 version: ~x.y-0
190 repository: '@local'
191 - name: component1
192 version: ~x.y-0
193 repository: 'file://components/component1'
194 condition: component1.enabled
195 - name: component2
196 version: ~x.y-0
197 repository: 'file://components/component2'
198 condition: component2.enabled
Roger Maitland953b5f12018-03-22 15:24:04 -0400199
Roger Maitlandac643812018-03-28 09:52:34 -0400200Configuration of the components varies somewhat from component to component but
201generally follows the pattern of one or more `configmap.yaml` files which can
202directly provide configuration to the containers in addition to processing
203configuration files stored in the `config` directory. It is the responsibility
204of each ONAP component team to update these configuration files when changes
205are made to the project containers that impact configuration.
Roger Maitland953b5f12018-03-22 15:24:04 -0400206
Sylvain Desbureaux5b7440b2019-01-28 16:49:14 +0100207The following section describes how the hierarchical ONAP configuration system
208is key to management of such a large system.
Roger Maitland953b5f12018-03-22 15:24:04 -0400209
210Configuration Management
211========================
212
213ONAP is a large system composed of many components - each of which are complex
214systems in themselves - that needs to be deployed in a number of different
215ways. For example, within a single operator's network there may be R&D
216deployments under active development, pre-production versions undergoing system
217testing and production systems that are operating live networks. Each of these
218deployments will differ in significant ways, such as the version of the
219software images deployed. In addition, there may be a number of application
220specific configuration differences, such as operating system environment
221variables. The following describes how the Helm configuration management
222system is used within the OOM project to manage both ONAP infrastructure
223configuration as well as ONAP components configuration.
224
225One of the artifacts that OOM/Kubernetes uses to deploy ONAP components is the
226deployment specification, yet another yaml file. Within these deployment specs
Sylvain Desbureaux60c74802019-12-12 14:35:01 +0100227are a number of parameters as shown in the following example:

Roger Maitland953b5f12018-03-22 15:24:04 -0400279
Sylvain Desbureaux60c74802019-12-12 14:35:01 +0100280Note that within the statefulset specification, one of the container arguments
281is the key/value pair image: gcr.io/google_samples/k8szk:v3 which
282specifies the version of the zookeeper software to deploy. Although the
283statefulset specifications greatly simplify statefulset, maintenance of the
284statefulset specifications themselves become problematic as software versions
Roger Maitland953b5f12018-03-22 15:24:04 -0400285change over time or as different versions are required for different
Sylvain Desbureaux60c74802019-12-12 14:35:01 +0100286statefulsets. For example, if the R&D team needs to deploy a newer version of
Roger Maitland953b5f12018-03-22 15:24:04 -0400287mariadb than what is currently used in the production environment, they would
Sylvain Desbureaux60c74802019-12-12 14:35:01 +0100288need to clone the statefulset specification and change this value. Fortunately,
Roger Maitland953b5f12018-03-22 15:24:04 -0400289this problem has been solved with the templating capabilities of Helm.
290
Sylvain Desbureaux60c74802019-12-12 14:35:01 +0100291The following example shows how the statefulset specifications are modified to
Roger Maitland953b5f12018-03-22 15:24:04 -0400292incorporate Helm templates such that key/value pairs can be defined outside of
Sylvain Desbureaux60c74802019-12-12 14:35:01 +0100293the statefulset specifications and passed during instantiation of the component.

Sylvain Desbureaux60c74802019-12-12 14:35:01 +0100333This version of the statefulset specification has gone through the process of
334templating values that are likely to change between statefulsets. Note that the
335image is now specified as: image: {{ .Values.image }} instead of a
336string used previously. During the statefulset phase, Helm (actually the Helm
Roger Maitland953b5f12018-03-22 15:24:04 -0400337sub-component Tiller) substitutes the {{ .. }} entries with a variable defined
338in a values.yaml file. The content of this file is as follows:
339
340.. code-block:: yaml
341
Sylvain Desbureaux60c74802019-12-12 14:35:01 +0100342 <...>
343 image: gcr.io/google_samples/k8szk:v3
344 replicaCount: 3
345 <...>
Roger Maitland953b5f12018-03-22 15:24:04 -0400346
Sylvain Desbureaux60c74802019-12-12 14:35:01 +0100347
348Within the values.yaml file there is an image key with the value
349`gcr.io/google_samples/k8szk:v3` which is the same value used in
Roger Maitland953b5f12018-03-22 15:24:04 -0400350the non-templated version. Once all of the substitutions are complete, the
Sylvain Desbureaux60c74802019-12-12 14:35:01 +0100351resulting statefulset specification ready to be used by Kubernetes.
Roger Maitland953b5f12018-03-22 15:24:04 -0400352
Sylvain Desbureaux60c74802019-12-12 14:35:01 +0100353When creating a template consider the use of default values if appropriate.
354Helm templating has built in support for DEFAULT values, here is
Roger Maitland953b5f12018-03-22 15:24:04 -0400355an example:
356
357.. code-block:: yaml
358
359 imagePullSecrets:
360 - name: "{{ .Values.nsPrefix | default "onap" }}-docker-registry-key"
361
362The pipeline operator ("|") used here hints at that power of Helm templates in
363that much like an operating system command line the pipeline operator allow
364over 60 Helm functions to be embedded directly into the template (note that the
365Helm template language is a superset of the Go template language). These
366functions include simple string operations like upper and more complex flow
367control operations like if/else.
368
Sylvain Desbureaux60c74802019-12-12 14:35:01 +0100369OOM is mainly helm templating. In order to have consistent deployment of the
370different components of ONAP, some rules must be followed.
371
372Templates are provided in order to create Kubernetes resources (Secrets,
373Ingress, Services, ...) or part of Kubernetes resources (names, labels,
374resources requests and limits, ...).
375
Sylvain Desbureaux88b2f922020-03-04 11:31:11 +0100376a full list and simple description is done in
377`kubernetes/common/common/documentation.rst`.
378
Sylvain Desbureaux60c74802019-12-12 14:35:01 +0100379Service template
380----------------
381
382In order to create a Service for a component, you have to create a file (with
383`service` in the name.
384For normal service, just put the following line:
385
386.. code-block:: yaml
387
388 {{ include "common.service" . }}
389
390For headless service, the line to put is the following:
391
392.. code-block:: yaml
393
394 {{ include "common.headlessService" . }}
395
396The configuration of the service is done in component `values.yaml`:
397
398.. code-block:: yaml
399
400 service:
401 name: NAME-OF-THE-SERVICE
402 postfix: MY-POSTFIX
403 type: NodePort
404 annotations:
405 someAnnotationsKey: value
406 ports:
407 - name: tcp-MyPort
408 port: 5432
409 nodePort: 88
410 - name: http-api
411 port: 8080
412 nodePort: 89
413 - name: https-api
414 port: 9443
415 nodePort: 90
416
417`annotations` and `postfix` keys are optional.
418if `service.type` is `NodePort`, then you have to give `nodePort` value for your
419service ports (which is the end of the computed nodePort, see example).
420
421It would render the following Service Resource (for a component named
422`name-of-my-component`, with version `x.y.z`, helm deployment name
423`my-deployment` and `global.nodePortPrefix` `302`):
424
425.. code-block:: yaml
426
427 apiVersion: v1
428 kind: Service
429 metadata:

451 app.kubernetes.io/instance: my-deployment-name-of-my-component
452 type: NodePort
453
454In the deployment or statefulSet file, you needs to set the good labels in order
455for the service to match the pods.
456
457here's an example to be sure it matchs (for a statefulSet):
458
459.. code-block:: yaml
460
461 apiVersion: apps/v1
462 kind: StatefulSet
463 metadata:
464 name: {{ include "common.fullname" . }}
465 namespace: {{ include "common.namespace" . }}
466 labels: {{- include "common.labels" . | nindent 4 }}
467 spec:
468 selector:
469 matchLabels: {{- include "common.matchLabels" . | nindent 6 }}
470 # serviceName is only needed for StatefulSet
471 # put the postfix part only if you have add a postfix on the service name
472 serviceName: {{ include "common.servicename" . }}-{{ .Values.service.postfix }}
473 <...>
474 template:
475 metadata:
476 labels: {{- include "common.labels" . | nindent 8 }}
477 annotations: {{- include "common.tplValue" (dict "value" .Values.podAnnotations "context" $) | nindent 8 }}
478 name: {{ include "common.name" . }}
479 spec:
480 <...>
481 containers:
482 - name: {{ include "common.name" . }}
483 ports:
484 {{- range $index, $port := .Values.service.ports }}
485 - containerPort: {{ $port.port }}
486 name: {{ $port.name }}
487 {{- end }}
488 {{- range $index, $port := .Values.service.headlessPorts }}
489 - containerPort: {{ $port.port }}
490 name: {{ $port.name }}
491 {{- end }}
492 <...>
493
494The configuration of the service is done in component `values.yaml`:
495
496.. code-block:: yaml
497
498 service:
499 name: NAME-OF-THE-SERVICE
500 headless:
501 postfix: NONE
502 annotations:
503 anotherAnnotationsKey : value
504 publishNotReadyAddresses: true
505 headlessPorts:
506 - name: tcp-MyPort
507 port: 5432
508 - name: http-api
509 port: 8080
510 - name: https-api
511 port: 9443
512
513`headless.annotations`, `headless.postfix` and
514`headless.publishNotReadyAddresses` keys are optional.
515
516If `headless.postfix` is not set, then we'll add `-headless` at the end of the
517service name.
518
519If it set to `NONE`, there will be not postfix.
520
521And if set to something, it will add `-something` at the end of the service
522name.
523
524It would render the following Service Resource (for a component named
525`name-of-my-component`, with version `x.y.z`, helm deployment name
526`my-deployment` and `global.nodePortPrefix` `302`):
527
528.. code-block:: yaml
529
530 apiVersion: v1
531 kind: Service
532 metadata:
533 annotations:
534 anotherAnnotationsKey: value
535 name: NAME-OF-THE-SERVICE
536 labels:
537 app.kubernetes.io/name: name-of-my-component
538 helm.sh/chart: name-of-my-component-x.y.z

549 nodePort: 30289

554 selector:
555 app.kubernetes.io/name: name-of-my-component
556 app.kubernetes.io/instance: my-deployment-name-of-my-component
557 type: ClusterIP
558
559Previous example of StatefulSet would also match (except for the `postfix` part
560obviously).
561
562Creating Deployment or StatefulSet
563----------------------------------
564
565Deployment and StatefulSet should use the `apps/v1` (which has appeared in
566v1.9).
567As seen on the service part, the following parts are mandatory:
568
569.. code-block:: yaml
570
571 apiVersion: apps/v1
572 kind: StatefulSet
573 metadata:
574 name: {{ include "common.fullname" . }}
575 namespace: {{ include "common.namespace" . }}
576 labels: {{- include "common.labels" . | nindent 4 }}
577 spec:
578 selector:
579 matchLabels: {{- include "common.matchLabels" . | nindent 6 }}
580 # serviceName is only needed for StatefulSet
581 # put the postfix part only if you have add a postfix on the service name
582 serviceName: {{ include "common.servicename" . }}-{{ .Values.service.postfix }}
583 <...>
584 template:
585 metadata:
586 labels: {{- include "common.labels" . | nindent 8 }}
587 annotations: {{- include "common.tplValue" (dict "value" .Values.podAnnotations "context" $) | nindent 8 }}

594ONAP Application Configuration
595------------------------------
596
Roger Maitlandac643812018-03-28 09:52:34 -0400597Dependency Management
598---------------------
599These Helm charts describe the desired state
600of an ONAP deployment and instruct the Kubernetes container manager as to how
601to maintain the deployment in this state. These dependencies dictate the order
602in-which the containers are started for the first time such that such
603dependencies are always met without arbitrary sleep times between container
604startups. For example, the SDC back-end container requires the Elastic-Search,
605Cassandra and Kibana containers within SDC to be ready and is also dependent on
606DMaaP (or the message-router) to be ready - where ready implies the built-in
607"readiness" probes succeeded - before becoming fully operational. When an
608initial deployment of ONAP is requested the current state of the system is NULL
609so ONAP is deployed by the Kubernetes manager as a set of Docker containers on
610one or more predetermined hosts. The hosts could be physical machines or
611virtual machines. When deploying on virtual machines the resulting system will
612be very similar to "Heat" based deployments, i.e. Docker containers running
613within a set of VMs, the primary difference being that the allocation of
614containers to VMs is done dynamically with OOM and statically with "Heat".
615Example SO deployment descriptor file shows SO's dependency on its mariadb
616data-base component:

647Kubernetes Container Orchestration
648==================================
649The ONAP components are managed by the Kubernetes_ container management system
650which maintains the desired state of the container system as described by one
651or more deployment descriptors - similar in concept to OpenStack HEAT
652Orchestration Templates. The following sections describe the fundamental
653objects managed by Kubernetes, the network these components use to communicate
654with each other and other entities outside of ONAP and the templates that
655describe the configuration and desired state of the ONAP components.
656
657Name Spaces
658-----------
Sylvain Desbureaux5b7440b2019-01-28 16:49:14 +0100659Within the namespaces are Kubernetes services that provide external
660connectivity to pods that host Docker containers.
Roger Maitlandac643812018-03-28 09:52:34 -0400661
662ONAP Components to Kubernetes Object Relationships
663--------------------------------------------------
664Kubernetes deployments consist of multiple objects:
665
666- **nodes** - a worker machine - either physical or virtual - that hosts
667 multiple containers managed by Kubernetes.
668- **services** - an abstraction of a logical set of pods that provide a
669 micro-service.
670- **pods** - one or more (but typically one) container(s) that provide specific
671 application functionality.
672- **persistent volumes** - One or more permanent volumes need to be established
673 to hold non-ephemeral configuration and state data.
674
675The relationship between these objects is shown in the following figure:
676
677.. .. uml::
678..
679.. @startuml
680.. node PH {
681.. component Service {
682.. component Pod0
683.. component Pod1
684.. }
685.. }
686..
687.. database PV
688.. @enduml
689
690.. figure:: kubernetes_objects.png
691
692OOM uses these Kubernetes objects as described in the following sections.
693
694Nodes
695~~~~~
696OOM works with both physical and virtual worker machines.
697
698* Virtual Machine Deployments - If ONAP is to be deployed onto a set of virtual
699 machines, the creation of the VMs is outside of the scope of OOM and could be
700 done in many ways, such as
701
702 * manually, for example by a user using the OpenStack Horizon dashboard or
703 AWS EC2, or
704 * automatically, for example with the use of a OpenStack Heat Orchestration
705 Template which builds an ONAP stack, Azure ARM template, AWS CloudFormation
706 Template, or
707 * orchestrated, for example with Cloudify creating the VMs from a TOSCA
708 template and controlling their life cycle for the life of the ONAP
709 deployment.
710
711* Physical Machine Deployments - If ONAP is to be deployed onto physical
712 machines there are several options but the recommendation is to use Rancher
713 along with Helm to associate hosts with a Kubernetes cluster.
714
715Pods
716~~~~
717A group of containers with shared storage and networking can be grouped
718together into a Kubernetes pod. All of the containers within a pod are
719co-located and co-scheduled so they operate as a single unit. Within ONAP
720Amsterdam release, pods are mapped one-to-one to docker containers although
721this may change in the future. As explained in the Services section below the
722use of Pods within each ONAP component is abstracted from other ONAP
723components.
724
725Services
726~~~~~~~~
727OOM uses the Kubernetes service abstraction to provide a consistent access
728point for each of the ONAP components independent of the pod or container
729architecture of that component. For example, the SDNC component may introduce
730OpenDaylight clustering as some point and change the number of pods in this
731component to three or more but this change will be isolated from the other ONAP
732components by the service abstraction. A service can include a load balancer
733on its ingress to distribute traffic between the pods and even react to dynamic
734changes in the number of pods if they are part of a replica set.
735
736Persistent Volumes
737~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
738To enable ONAP to be deployed into a wide variety of cloud infrastructures a
739flexible persistent storage architecture, built on Kubernetes persistent
740volumes, provides the ability to define the physical storage in a central
741location and have all ONAP components securely store their data.
742
743When deploying ONAP into a public cloud, available storage services such as
744`AWS Elastic Block Store`_, `Azure File`_, or `GCE Persistent Disk`_ are
745options. Alternatively, when deploying into a private cloud the storage
746architecture might consist of Fiber Channel, `Gluster FS`_, or iSCSI. Many
747other storage options existing, refer to the `Kubernetes Storage Class`_
748documentation for a full list of the options. The storage architecture may vary
749from deployment to deployment but in all cases a reliable, redundant storage
750system must be provided to ONAP with which the state information of all ONAP
751components will be securely stored. The Storage Class for a given deployment is
752a single parameter listed in the ONAP values.yaml file and therefore is easily
753customized. Operation of this storage system is outside the scope of the OOM.
754
755.. code-block:: yaml
756
757 Insert values.yaml code block with storage block here
758
759Once the storage class is selected and the physical storage is provided, the
760ONAP deployment step creates a pool of persistent volumes within the given
761physical storage that is used by all of the ONAP components. ONAP components
762simply make a claim on these persistent volumes (PV), with a persistent volume
763claim (PVC), to gain access to their storage.
764
765The following figure illustrates the relationships between the persistent
766volume claims, the persistent volumes, the storage class, and the physical
767storage.

820 D0->D1->p3->p4->p5->Dx [style=invis]
821 }
822
823 }
824
825In-order for an ONAP component to use a persistent volume it must make a claim
826against a specific persistent volume defined in the ONAP common charts. Note
827that there is a one-to-one relationship between a PVC and PV. The following is
828an excerpt from a component chart that defines a PVC:

Roger Maitlandac643812018-03-28 09:52:34 -0400840
841Node Ports
842~~~~~~~~~~
843
844Pod Placement Rules
845-------------------
846OOM will use the rich set of Kubernetes node and pod affinity /
847anti-affinity rules to minimize the chance of a single failure resulting in a
848loss of ONAP service. Node affinity / anti-affinity is used to guide the
849Kubernetes orchestrator in the placement of pods on nodes (physical or virtual
850machines). For example:
851
852- if a container used Intel DPDK technology the pod may state that it as
853 affinity to an Intel processor based node, or
854- geographical based node labels (such as the Kubernetes standard zone or
855 region labels) may be used to ensure placement of a DCAE complex close to the
856 VNFs generating high volumes of traffic thus minimizing networking cost.
857 Specifically, if nodes were pre-assigned labels East and West, the pod
858 deployment spec to distribute pods to these nodes would be:
859
860.. code-block:: yaml
861
862 nodeSelector:
863 failure-domain.beta.Kubernetes.io/region: {{ .Values.location }}
864
865- "location: West" is specified in the `values.yaml` file used to deploy
866 one DCAE cluster and "location: East" is specified in a second `values.yaml`
867 file (see OOM Configuration Management for more information about
868 configuration files like the `values.yaml` file).
869
870Node affinity can also be used to achieve geographic redundancy if pods are
871assigned to multiple failure domains. For more information refer to `Assigning
872Pods to Nodes`_.
873
874.. note::
875 One could use Pod to Node assignment to totally constrain Kubernetes when
876 doing initial container assignment to replicate the Amsterdam release
877 OpenStack Heat based deployment. Should one wish to do this, each VM would
878 need a unique node name which would be used to specify a node constaint
879 for every component. These assignment could be specified in an environment
880 specific values.yaml file. Constraining Kubernetes in this way is not
881 recommended.
882
883Kubernetes has a comprehensive system called Taints and Tolerations that can be
884used to force the container orchestrator to repel pods from nodes based on
885static events (an administrator assigning a taint to a node) or dynamic events
886(such as a node becoming unreachable or running out of disk space). There are
887no plans to use taints or tolerations in the ONAP Beijing release. Pod
888affinity / anti-affinity is the concept of creating a spacial relationship
889between pods when the Kubernetes orchestrator does assignment (both initially
890an in operation) to nodes as explained in Inter-pod affinity and anti-affinity.
891For example, one might choose to co-located all of the ONAP SDC containers on a
892single node as they are not critical runtime components and co-location
893minimizes overhead. On the other hand, one might choose to ensure that all of
894the containers in an ODL cluster (SDNC and APPC) are placed on separate nodes
895such that a node failure has minimal impact to the operation of the cluster.
896An example of how pod affinity / anti-affinity is shown below:
897
898Pod Affinity / Anti-Affinity
899
900.. code-block:: yaml
901
902 apiVersion: v1
903 kind: Pod
904 metadata:
905 name: with-pod-affinity
906 spec:
907 affinity:
908 podAffinity:
909 requiredDuringSchedulingIgnoredDuringExecution:
910 - labelSelector:
911 matchExpressions:
912 - key: security
913 operator: In
914 values:
915 - S1
916 topologyKey: failure-domain.beta.Kubernetes.io/zone
917 podAntiAffinity:
918 preferredDuringSchedulingIgnoredDuringExecution:
919 - weight: 100
920 podAffinityTerm:
921 labelSelector:
922 matchExpressions:
923 - key: security
924 operator: In
925 values:
926 - S2
927 topologyKey: Kubernetes.io/hostname
928 containers:
929 - name: with-pod-affinity
930 image: gcr.io/google_containers/pause:2.0
931
932This example contains both podAffinity and podAntiAffinity rules, the first
933rule is is a must (requiredDuringSchedulingIgnoredDuringExecution) while the
934second will be met pending other considerations
935(preferredDuringSchedulingIgnoredDuringExecution). Preemption Another feature
936that may assist in achieving a repeatable deployment in the presence of faults
937that may have reduced the capacity of the cloud is assigning priority to the
938containers such that mission critical components have the ability to evict less
939critical components. Kubernetes provides this capability with Pod Priority and
940Preemption. Prior to having more advanced production grade features available,
941the ability to at least be able to re-deploy ONAP (or a subset of) reliably
942provides a level of confidence that should an outage occur the system can be
943brought back on-line predictably.
944
945Health Checks
946-------------
947
948Monitoring of ONAP components is configured in the agents within JSON files and
949stored in gerrit under the consul-agent-config, here is an example from the AAI

969Liveness Probes
970---------------
971
972These liveness probes can simply check that a port is available, that a
973built-in health check is reporting good health, or that the Consul health check
974is positive. For example, to monitor the SDNC component has following liveness
975probe can be found in the SDNC DB deployment specification:
976
977.. code-block:: yaml
978
979 sdnc db liveness probe
980
981 livenessProbe:
982 exec:
983 command: ["mysqladmin", "ping"]
984 initialDelaySeconds: 30 periodSeconds: 10
985 timeoutSeconds: 5
986
987The 'initialDelaySeconds' control the period of time between the readiness
988probe succeeding and the liveness probe starting. 'periodSeconds' and
989'timeoutSeconds' control the actual operation of the probe. Note that
990containers are inherently ephemeral so the healing action destroys failed
991containers and any state information within it. To avoid a loss of state, a
992persistent volume should be used to store all data that needs to be persisted
993over the re-creation of a container. Persistent volumes have been created for
994the database components of each of the projects and the same technique can be
995used for all persistent state information.

1002MSB Integration
1003===============
Roger Maitlandac643812018-03-28 09:52:34 -04001004
1005The \ `Microservices Bus
1006Project <https://wiki.onap.org/pages/viewpage.action?pageId=3246982>`__ provides
1007facilities to integrate micro-services into ONAP and therefore needs to
1008integrate into OOM - primarily through Consul which is the backend of
1009MSB service discovery. The following is a brief description of how this
1010integration will be done:
1011
1012A registrator to push the service endpoint info to MSB service
1013discovery. 
1014
1015- The needed service endpoint info is put into the kubernetes yaml file
1016 as annotation, including service name, Protocol,version, visual
1017 range,LB method, IP, Port,etc.
1018
1019- OOM deploy/start/restart/scale in/scale out/upgrade ONAP components
1020
1021- Registrator watch the kubernetes event
1022
1023- When an ONAP component instance has been started/destroyed by OOM,
1024 Registrator get the notification from kubernetes
1025
1026- Registrator parse the service endpoint info from annotation and
1027 register/update/unregister it to MSB service discovery
1028
1029- MSB API Gateway uses the service endpoint info for service routing
1030 and load balancing.
1031
1032Details of the registration service API can be found at \ `Microservice
1033Bus API
1034Documentation <https://wiki.onap.org/display/DW/Microservice+Bus+API+Documentation>`__.
1035
1036ONAP Component Registration to MSB
1037----------------------------------
1038The charts of all ONAP components intending to register against MSB must have
1039an annotation in their service(s) template. A `sdc` example follows:
1040
1041.. code-block:: yaml
1042
1043 apiVersion: v1
1044 kind: Service
1045 metadata:
1046 labels:
1047 app: sdc-be
1048 name: sdc-be
1049 namespace: "{{ .Values.nsPrefix }}"
1050 annotations:
1051 msb.onap.org/service-info: '[
1052 {
1053 "serviceName": "sdc",
1054 "version": "v1",
1055 "url": "/sdc/v1",
1056 "protocol": "REST",
1057 "port": "8080",
1058 "visualRange":"1"
1059 },
1060 {
1061 "serviceName": "sdc-deprecated",
1062 "version": "v1",
1063 "url": "/sdc/v1",
1064 "protocol": "REST",
1065 "port": "8080",
1066 "visualRange":"1",
1067 "path":"/sdc/v1"
1068 }
1069 ]'
1070 ...

1116MSB Deployment Instructions
1117---------------------------
1118MSB is helm installable ONAP component which is often automatically deployed.
1119To install it individually enter::
1120
1121 > helm install <repo-name>/msb
1122
1123.. note::
1124 TBD: Vaidate if the following procedure is still required.
1125
1126Please note that Kubernetes authentication token must be set at
1127*kubernetes/kube2msb/values.yaml* so the kube2msb registrator can get the
1128access to watch the kubernetes events and get service annotation by
1129Kubernetes APIs. The token can be found in the kubectl configuration file
1130*~/.kube/config*
1131
1132More details can be found here `MSB installation <http://onap.readthedocs.io/en/latest/submodules/msb/apigateway.git/docs/platform/installation.html>`__.

1135.. ====
1136.. Note that although OOM uses Kubernetes facilities to minimize the effort
Sylvain Desbureaux5b7440b2019-01-28 16:49:14 +01001137.. required of the ONAP component owners to implement a successful rolling
1138.. upgrade strategy there are other considerations that must be taken into
1139.. consideration.
Roger Maitland953b5f12018-03-22 15:24:04 -04001140.. For example, external APIs - both internal and external to ONAP - should be
Sylvain Desbureaux5b7440b2019-01-28 16:49:14 +01001141.. designed to gracefully accept transactions from a peer at a different
1142.. software version to avoid deadlock situations. Embedded version codes in
1143.. messages may facilitate such capabilities.
Roger Maitland953b5f12018-03-22 15:24:04 -04001144..
Sylvain Desbureaux5b7440b2019-01-28 16:49:14 +01001145.. Within each of the projects a new configuration repository contains all of
1146.. the project specific configuration artifacts. As changes are made within
1147.. the project, it's the responsibility of the project team to make appropriate
Roger Maitland953b5f12018-03-22 15:24:04 -04001148.. changes to the configuration data.
