    Ceph Operator Helm Chart

    Installs rook to create, configure, and manage Ceph clusters on Kubernetes.

    Introduction

    This chart bootstraps a rook-ceph-operator deployment on a Kubernetes cluster using the Helm package manager.

    Prerequisites

    • Kubernetes 1.13+
    • Helm 3.x

    See the Helm support matrix for more details.

    Installing

    The Ceph Operator helm chart will install the basic components necessary to create a storage platform for your Kubernetes cluster.

    1. Install the Helm chart
    2. Create a Rook cluster.

    The helm install command deploys rook on the Kubernetes cluster in the default configuration. The configuration section lists the parameters that can be configured during installation. It is recommended that the rook operator be installed into the rook-ceph namespace (you will install your clusters into separate namespaces).

    Rook currently publishes builds of the Ceph operator to the release and master channels.

    Release

    The release channel is the most recent release of Rook that is considered stable for the community.

    helm repo add rook-release https://charts.rook.io/release
    kubectl create namespace rook-ceph
    helm install --namespace rook-ceph rook-ceph rook-release/rook-ceph
    

    Development Build

    To deploy from a local build from your development environment:

    1. Build the Rook docker image: make
    2. Copy the image to your K8s cluster, such as with the docker save then the docker load commands
    3. Install the helm chart:
    cd cluster/charts/rook-ceph
    kubectl create namespace rook-ceph
    helm install --namespace rook-ceph rook-ceph .
    

    For Helm v2.x the --name flag must be specified instead of just rook-ceph, e.g., --name rook-ceph.

    Uninstalling the Chart

    To see the currently installed Rook chart:

    helm ls --namespace rook-ceph
    

    To uninstall/delete the rook-ceph deployment:

    helm delete --namespace rook-ceph rook-ceph
    

    The command removes all the Kubernetes components associated with the chart and deletes the release.

    Command Line

    You can pass the settings with helm command line parameters. Specify each parameter using the --set key=value[,key=value] argument to helm install.

    Settings File

    Alternatively, a yaml file that specifies the values for the above parameters (values.yaml) can be provided while installing the chart.

    For Helm v2.x the --name flag must be specified instead of just rook-ceph, e.g., --name rook-ceph.

    helm install --namespace rook-ceph rook-ceph rook-release/rook-ceph -f values.yaml
    

    For example settings, see values.yaml
