SUMO K8s deployment

Local Requirements:

• Python 3
• Connectivity to SUMO Kubernetes cluster(s)

Deploying SUMO

Setup

• Move to the SUMO k8s directory

  cd k8s
  

• Install needed packages

  virtualenv venv
  pip install -r ./requirements.txt
  

• Create symbolic links to kubectl and kubeconfig to use in each region

  e.g. ln -s ~/bin/kubectl ./regions/frankfurt/kubectl

  Files to be created:

  • ./regions/frankfurt/kubectl
  • ./regions/frankfurt/kubeconfig
  • ./regions/oregon-a/kubectl
  • ./regions/oregon-a/kubeconfig
  • ./regions/oregon-b/kubectl
  • ./regions/oregon-b/kubeconfig

• Create symbolic links to secrets for each namespace and region.

  e.g. ln -s ~/sumo-encrypted/k8s/secrets/frankfurt/sumo-dev-secrets.yaml ./regions/frankfurt/dev-secrets.yaml

  Files to be created:

  • ./regions/frankfurt/dev-secrets.yaml
  • ./regions/frankfurt/stage-secrets.yaml
  • ./regions/frankfurt/prod-secrets.yaml
  • ./regions/oregon-a/stage-secrets.yaml
  • ./regions/oregon-a/prod-secrets.yaml
  • ./regions/oregon-b/stage-secrets.yaml
  • ./regions/oregon-b/prod-secrets.yaml

Deploy SUMO with commander (recommended)

Choose a region and env:

Region	Env
frankfurt	dev
frankfurt	stage
frankfurt	prod
oregon-a	stage
oregon-a	prod
oregon-b	stage
oregon-b	prod

• Update the settings file with new image tags and settings.

• Deploy with commander without secrets

  ./commander.sh deploy <region> <environment> <git sha>

  E.g. ./commander.sh deploy frankfurt dev d7be392

• Deploy with commander with secrets

  ./commander.sh deploy <region> <environment> <git sha> secrets

  E.g. ./commander.sh deploy frankfurt dev d7be392 secrets

Deploying SUMO (low level)

• Update the settings file with new image tags and settings.

• If desired, perform a dry-run to see rendered K8s settings:

invoke -f ./regions/oregon-b/dev.yaml deployments.create-celery
invoke -f ./regions/oregon-b/dev.yaml deployments.create-cron
invoke -f ./regions/oregon-b/dev.yaml deployments.create-web

dry-run mode is enabled if you do not specify --apply.

• Apply changes to K8s:

invoke -f ./regions/oregon-b/dev.yaml deployments.create-celery --apply
invoke -f ./regions/oregon-b/dev.yaml deployments.create-cron --apply
invoke -f ./regions/oregon-b/dev.yaml deployments.create-web --apply

• Monitor the status of the rollout until it completes:

invoke -f ./regions/oregon-b/dev.yaml rollouts.status-celery
invoke -f ./regions/oregon-b/dev.yaml rollouts.status-cron
invoke -f ./regions/oregon-b/dev.yaml rollouts.status-web

• In an emergency, if the rollout is causing failures, you can roll-back to the previous state.

invoke -f ./regions/oregon-b/dev.yaml rollouts.rollback-celery
invoke -f ./regions/oregon-b/dev.yaml rollouts.rollback-cron
invoke -f ./regions/oregon-b/dev.yaml rollouts.rollback-web

Acceptance Tests

Run basic acceptance tests with

./acceptance-tests.sh <URL>

E.g. ./acceptance-tests.sh https://dev.sumo.moz.works

kubectl client version note

All Kubernetes clusters that serve SUMO are currently v1.8.xx

When connecting to an older K8s cluster, you may need to download an older version of Kubectl that matches the version of the server.

Newer clients connecting to older K8s servers may display error messages such as:

Error from server (NotFound): the server could not find the requested resource

To determine the K8s server version:

$ kubectl version
Client Version: version.Info{Major:"1", Minor:"9", GitVersion:"v1.9.1", GitCommit:"3a1c9449a956b6026f075fa3134ff92f7d55f812", GitTreeState:"clean", BuildDate:"2018-01-04T11:52:23Z", GoVersion:"go1.9.2", Compiler:"gc", Platform:"linux/amd64"}
Server Version: version.Info{Major:"1", Minor:"6", GitVersion:"v1.6.4", GitCommit:"d6f433224538d4f9ca2f7ae19b252e6fcb66a3ae", GitTreeState:"clean", BuildDate:"2017-05-19T18:33:17Z", GoVersion:"go1.7.5", Compiler:"gc", Platform:"linux/amd64"}

Check the values that are part of Server Version. The output above shows 1.6 (or v.1.6.4).

Next, download a binary following the instructions located here.

curl -LO https://storage.googleapis.com/kubernetes-release/release/v1.6.4/bin/linux/amd64/kubectl
chmod +x ./kubectl
# it may be useful to rename the binary to include K8s version number:
mv ./kubectl ./kubectl1.6.4

Next, set the KUBECTL_BIN environment variable to override the name of the kubectl binary:

# next, set the KUBECTL_BIN environment variable to override the name of the kubectl binary:
KUBECTL_BIN=/home/metadave/kubectl1.6.4 invoke -f ./regions/oregon-b/dev.yaml deployments.create-web --apply

the default KUBECTL_BIN value is kubectl.
