    OptScale components and architecture



    Getting started

    The minimum hardware requirements for OptScale cluster: CPU: 8+ cores, RAM: 16Gb, SSD: 150+ Gb.

    NVMe SSD is recommended.
    OS Required: Ubuntu 20.04.
    The current installation process does not work on Ubuntu 22.04

    Installing required packages

    Run the following commands:

    sudo apt update; sudo apt install python3-pip sshpass git python3-virtualenv python3.9
    

    Pulling optscale-deploy scripts

    Clone the repository

    git clone https://github.com/hystax/optscale.git

    Change current directory:

    cd optscale/optscale-deploy
    

    Preparing virtual environment

    Run the following commands:

    virtualenv -p python3.9 venv
    source venv/bin/activate
    pip install -r requirements.txt
    

    Kubernetes installation

    Run the following command: comma after ip address is required

    ansible-playbook -e "ansible_ssh_user=<user>" -k -K -i "<ip address>," ansible/k8s-master.yaml
    

    where - actual username; - host ip address, ip address should be private address of the machine, you can check it with

    ip a
    

    If your deployment server is the service-host server, add "ansible_connection=local" to the ansible command.

    Creating user overlay

    Edit file with overlay - optscale-deploy/overlay/user_template.yml; see comments in overlay file for guidance.

    Cluster installation

    run the following command:

    ./runkube.py --with-elk  -o overlay/user_template.yml -- <deployment name> <version>
    

    or if you want to use socket:

    ./runkube.py --use-socket --with-elk  -o overlay/user_template.yml -- <deployment name> <version>
    
    

    deployment name must follow the RFC 1123: https://kubernetes.io/docs/concepts/overview/working-with-objects/names/

    version:

    • Use hystax/optscale git tag (eg: 2023110701-public) if you use optscale public version.
    • Use your own tag version if you build your optscale images (eg: latest).

    please note: if you use key authentication, you should have the required key (id_rsa) on the machine

    Cluster update

    Run the following command:

    ./runkube.py --with-elk  --update-only -- <deployment name>  <version>
    

    Get IP access http(s):

    kubectl get services --field-selector metadata.name=ngingress-nginx-ingress-controller

    Troubleshooting

    In case of the following error:

    run the following command to reset k8s and retry the installation command:

    sudo kubeadm reset -f
    ansible-playbook -e "ansible_ssh_user=<user>" -k -K -i "<ip address>," ansible/k8s-master.yaml
    

    In case of the following error during cluster initialization:

    requests.exceptions.ConnectionError: HTTPConnectionPool(host='172.22.24.157', port=2376): Max retries exceeded with url: /v1.35/auth (Caused by NewConnectionError('<urllib3.connection.HTTPConnection object at 0x7f73ca7c3340>: Failed to establish a new connection: [Errno 111] Connection refused'))
    

    check the docker port is opened:

    sudo netstat -plnt | grep 2376
    

    and open port in docker service config:

    sudo nano /etc/systemd/system/docker.service
    

    add this line (do not dorget to close docker port after installing Optscale)

    ExecStart=/usr/bin/dockerd -H fd:// -H tcp://0.0.0.0:2376
    

    then reload config and restart docker

    sudo systemctl daemon-reload
    sudo service docker restart
