Ceph-csi Upgrade

Pre-upgrade considerations

In some scenarios there is an issue in the CSI driver that will cause application pods to be disconnected from their mounts when the CSI driver is restarted. Since the upgrade would cause the CSI driver to restart if it is updated, you need to be aware of whether this affects your applications. This issue will happen when using the Ceph fuse client.

If you provision volumes for CephFS and have a kernel less than version 4.17, the CSI driver will fall back to use the FUSE client.

If you are affected by this issue, you will need to proceed carefully during the upgrade to restart your application pods. The recommended step is to modify the update strategy of the CSI nodeplugin daemonsets to OnDelete so that you can control when the CSI driver pods are restarted on each node.

To avoid this issue in future upgrades, we recommend that you do not use the fuse client as of now.

This guide will walk you through the steps to upgrade the software in a cluster from v3.11 to v3.12

Snapshot-controller and snapshot crd

Its kubernetes distributor responsibility to install new snapshot controller and snapshot CRD. more info can be found here

Note: We recommend to use {sidecar, controller, crds} of same version

Upgrading from previous releases

To upgrade from previous releases, refer to the following:

Upgrading from v3.11 to v3.12

Ceph-csi releases from devel are expressly unsupported. It is strongly recommended that you use official releases of Ceph-csi. Unreleased versions from the devel branch are subject to changes and incompatibilities that will not be supported in the official releases. Builds from the devel branch can have functionality changed and even removed at any time without compatibility support and without prior notice.

Also, we do not recommend any direct upgrades to 3.12 except from 3.11 to 3.12. For example, upgrading from 3.10 to 3.12 is not recommended.

Refer to the Breaking Changes Section in the release notes before proceeding further.

git checkout v3.12.0 tag

git clone https://github.com/ceph/ceph-csi.git
cd ./ceph-csi
git checkout v3.12.0
Warning: kubectl apply should be used on resource created by either kubectl create --save-config or kubectl apply

Note: While upgrading please Ignore above warning messages from kubectl output

Upgrading CephFS

Upgrading cephfs csi includes upgrade of cephfs driver and as well as kubernetes sidecar containers and also the permissions required for the kubernetes sidecar containers, lets upgrade the things one by one

1. Upgrade CephFS Provisioner resources

Upgrade provisioner resources include updating the provisioner RBAC and Provisioner deployment

1.1 Update the CephFS Provisioner RBAC
$ kubectl apply -f deploy/cephfs/kubernetes/csi-provisioner-rbac.yaml
serviceaccount/cephfs-csi-provisioner configured
clusterrole.rbac.authorization.k8s.io/cephfs-external-provisioner-runner configured
clusterrole.rbac.authorization.k8s.io/cephfs-external-provisioner-runner-rules configured
clusterrolebinding.rbac.authorization.k8s.io/cephfs-csi-provisioner-role configured
role.rbac.authorization.k8s.io/cephfs-external-provisioner-cfg configured
rolebinding.rbac.authorization.k8s.io/cephfs-csi-provisioner-role-cfg configured
1.2 Update the CephFS Provisioner deployment
$ kubectl apply -f deploy/cephfs/kubernetes/csi-cephfsplugin-provisioner.yaml
service/csi-cephfsplugin-provisioner configured
deployment.apps/csi-cephfsplugin-provisioner configured

wait for the deployment to complete

$ kubectl get deployment
NAME                           READY   UP-TO-DATE   AVAILABLE   AGE
csi-cephfsplugin-provisioner   3/3     1            3           104m

deployment UP-TO-DATE value must be same as READY

2. Upgrade CephFS Nodeplugin resources

Upgrading nodeplugin resources include updating the nodeplugin RBAC and nodeplugin daemonset

2.1 Update the CephFS Nodeplugin RBAC
$ kubectl apply -f deploy/cephfs/kubernetes/csi-nodeplugin-rbac.yaml
serviceaccount/cephfs-csi-nodeplugin configured

If you determined in Pre-upgrade considerations that you were affected by the CSI driver restart issue that disconnects the application pods from their mounts, continue with this section. Otherwise, you can skip to step 2.2

vi deploy/cephfs/kubernetes/csi-cephfsplugin.yaml
kind: DaemonSet
apiVersion: apps/v1
metadata:
  name: csi-cephfsplugin
spec:
  selector:
    matchLabels:
      app: csi-cephfsplugin
  updateStrategy:
    type: OnDelete
  template:
    metadata:
      labels:
        app: csi-cephfsplugin
    spec:
      serviceAccountName: cephfs-csi-nodeplugin

in the above template we have added updateStrategy and its type to the daemonset spec

2.2 Update the CephFS Nodeplugin daemonset
$ kubectl apply -f deploy/cephfs/kubernetes/csi-cephfsplugin.yaml
daemonset.apps/csi-cephfsplugin configured
service/csi-metrics-cephfsplugin configured
2.3 Manual deletion of CephFS Nodeplugin daemonset pods

If you determined in Pre-upgrade considerations that you were affected by the CSI driver restart issue that disconnects the application pods from their mounts, continue with this section. Otherwise, you can skip this section.

As we have set the updateStrategy to OnDelete the CSI driver pods will not be updated until you delete them manually. This allows you to control when your application pods will be affected by the CSI driver restart.

For each node:

  • Drain your application pods from the node
  • Delete the CSI driver pods on the node
    • The pods to delete will be named with a csi-cephfsplugin prefix and have a random suffix on each node. However, no need to delete the provisioner pods: csi-cephfsplugin-provisioner-* .
    • The pod deletion causes the pods to be restarted and updated automatically on the node.

we have successfully upgraded cephfs csi from v3.11 to v3.12

CSI Sidecar containers consideration

With 3.2.0 version of ceph-csi we have updated the versions of CSI sidecar containers. These versions are generally compatible with kubernetes version>=1.17 but based on the kubernetes version you are using, you need to update the templates with required sidecar versions. You also might need to update or remove a few arguments based on the sidecar versions you are using. Refer sidecar-compatibility for more details.
