Adds commands to both replace an OSD disk, and refresh (reimport) an
existing OSD disk on a new node. This handles the cases where an OSD
disk should be replaced (either due to upgrades or failures) or where a
node is rebuilt in-place and an existing OSD must be re-imported to it.
This should avoid the need to do a full remove/add sequence for either
case.
Also cleans up some aspects of OSD removal that are identical between
methods (e.g. using safe-to-destroy and sleeping after stopping) and
fixes a bug if an OSD does not truly exist when the daemon starts up.
With the OSD LVM information stored in Zookeeper, we can use this to
determine the actual block device to zap rather than relying on runtime
determination and guestimation.
Ensures that information like the FSIDs and the OSD LVM volume are
stored in Zookeeper at creation time and updated at daemon start time
(to ensure the data is populated at least once, or if the /dev/sdX
path changes).
This will allow safer operation of OSD removals and the potential
implementation of re-activation after node replacements.
Allows specifying blockdevs in the OSD and OSD-DB addition commands as
detect strings rather than actual block device paths. This provides
greater flexibility for automation with pvcbootstrapd (which originates
the concept of detect strings) and in general usage as well.
The previous implementation did not work with /dev/nvme devices or any
/dev/disk/by-* devices due to some logical failures in the partition
naming scheme, so fix these, and be explicit about what is supported in
the PVC CLI command output.
The 'echo | gdisk' implementation of partition creation also did not
work due to limitations of subprocess.run; instead, use sgdisk which
allows these commands to be written out explicitly and is included in
the same package as gdisk.
The default of 0.05 (5%) is likely ideal in the initial implementation,
but allow this to be set explicitly for maximum flexibility in
space-constrained or performance-critical use-cases.
Adds in three parts:
1. Create an API endpoint to create OSD DB volume groups on a device.
Passed through to the node via the same command pipeline as
creating/removing OSDs, and creates a volume group with a fixed name
(osd-db).
2. Adds API support for specifying whether or not to use this DB volume
group when creating a new OSD via the "ext_db" flag. Naming and sizing
is fixed for simplicity and based on Ceph recommendations (5% of OSD
size). The Zookeeper schema tracks the block device to use during
removal.
3. Adds CLI support for the new and modified API endpoints, as well as
displaying the block device and DB block device in the OSD list.
While I debated supporting adding a DB device to an existing OSD, in
practice this ended up being a very complex operation involving stopping
the OSD and setting some options, so this is not supported; this can be
specified during OSD creation only.
Closes#142
This branch commit refactors the pvcnoded component to better adhere to
good programming practices. The previous Daemon.py was a massive file
which contained almost 2000 lines of direct, root-level code which was
directly imported. Not only was this poor practice, but this resulted
in a nigh-unmaintainable file which was hard even for me to understand.
This refactoring splits a large section of the code from Daemon.py into
separate small modules and functions in the `util/` directory. This will
hopefully make most of the functionality easy to find and modify without
having to dig through a single large file.
Further the existing subcomponents have been moved to the `objects/`
directory which clearly separates them.
Finally, the Daemon.py code has mostly been moved into a function,
`entrypoint()`, which is then called from the `pvcnoded.py` stub.
An additional item is that most format strings have been replaced by
f-strings to make use of the Python 3.6 features in Daemon.py and the
utility files.
