This document details the steps needed to upgrade a cluster to newer versions |
7 |
of Ganeti. |
8 |
|
9 |
As a general rule the node daemons need to be restarted after each software |
10 |
upgrade; if using the provided example init.d script, this means running the |
11 |
following command on all nodes:: |
12 |
|
13 |
$ /etc/init.d/ganeti restart |
14 |
|
15 |
|
16 |
2.1 and above |
17 |
------------- |
18 |
|
19 |
Starting with Ganeti 2.0, upgrades between revisions (e.g. 2.1.0 to 2.1.1) |
20 |
should not need manual intervention. As a safety measure, minor releases (e.g. |
21 |
2.1.3 to 2.2.0) require the ``cfgupgrade`` command for changing the |
22 |
configuration version. Below you find the steps necessary to upgrade between |
23 |
minor releases. |
24 |
|
25 |
To run commands on all nodes, the `distributed shell (dsh) |
26 |
<http://www.netfort.gr.jp/~dancer/software/dsh.html.en>`_ can be used, e.g. |
27 |
``dsh -M -F 8 -f /var/lib/ganeti/ssconf_online_nodes gnt-cluster --version``. |
28 |
|
29 |
#. Ensure no jobs are running (master node only):: |
30 |
|
31 |
$ gnt-job list |
32 |
|
33 |
#. Pause the watcher for an hour (master node only):: |
34 |
|
35 |
$ gnt-cluster watcher pause 1h |
36 |
|
37 |
#. Stop all daemons on all nodes:: |
38 |
|
39 |
$ /etc/init.d/ganeti stop |
40 |
|
41 |
#. Backup old configuration (master node only):: |
42 |
|
43 |
$ tar czf /var/lib/ganeti-$(date +\%FT\%T).tar.gz -C /var/lib ganeti |
44 |
|
45 |
#. Install new Ganeti version on all nodes |
46 |
#. Run cfgupgrade on the master node:: |
47 |
|
48 |
$ /usr/lib/ganeti/tools/cfgupgrade --verbose --dry-run |
49 |
$ /usr/lib/ganeti/tools/cfgupgrade --verbose |
50 |
|
51 |
(``cfgupgrade`` supports a number of parameters, run it with |
52 |
``--help`` for more information) |
53 |
|
54 |
#. Restart daemons on all nodes:: |
55 |
|
56 |
$ /etc/init.d/ganeti restart |
57 |
|
58 |
#. Re-distribute configuration (master node only):: |
59 |
|
60 |
$ gnt-cluster redist-conf |
61 |
|
62 |
#. Restart daemons again on all nodes:: |
63 |
|
64 |
$ /etc/init.d/ganeti restart |
65 |
|
66 |
#. Enable the watcher again (master node only):: |
67 |
|
68 |
$ gnt-cluster watcher continue |
69 |
|
70 |
#. Verify cluster (master node only):: |
71 |
|
72 |
$ gnt-cluster verify |
73 |
|

2.0 releases |
76 |
------------ |
77 |
|
78 |
2.0.3 to 2.0.4 |
79 |
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ |
80 |
|
81 |
No changes needed except restarting the daemon; but rollback to 2.0.3 might |
82 |
require configuration editing. |
83 |
|
84 |
If you're using Xen-HVM instances, please double-check the network |
85 |
configuration (``nic_type`` parameter) as the defaults might have changed: |
86 |
2.0.4 adds any missing configuration items and depending on the version of the |
87 |
software the cluster has been installed with, some new keys might have been |
88 |
added. |
89 |
|
90 |
2.0.1 to 2.0.2/2.0.3 |
91 |
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ |
92 |
|
93 |
Between 2.0.1 and 2.0.2 there have been some changes in the handling of block |
94 |
devices, which can cause some issues. 2.0.3 was then released which adds two |
95 |
new options/commands to fix this issue. |
96 |
|
97 |
If you use DRBD-type instances and see problems in instance start or |
98 |
activate-disks with messages from DRBD about "lower device too small" or |
99 |
similar, it is recoomended to: |
100 |
|
101 |
#. Run ``gnt-instance activate-disks --ignore-size $instance`` for each |
102 |
of the affected instances |
103 |
#. Then run ``gnt-cluster repair-disk-sizes`` which will check that |
104 |
instances have the correct disk sizes |
105 |
|
106 |
1.2 to 2.0 |
107 |
---------- |
108 |
|
109 |
Prerequisites: |
110 |
|
111 |
- Ganeti 1.2.7 is currently installed |
112 |
- All instances have been migrated from DRBD 0.7 to DRBD 8.x (i.e. no |
113 |
``remote_raid1`` disk template) |
114 |
- Upgrade to Ganeti 2.0.0~rc2 or later (~rc1 and earlier don't have the needed |
115 |
upgrade tool) |
116 |
|
117 |
In the below steps, replace :file:`/var/lib` with ``$libdir`` if Ganeti was not |
118 |
installed with this prefix (e.g. :file:`/usr/local/var`). Same for |
119 |
:file:`/usr/lib`. |
120 |
|
121 |
Execution (all steps are required in the order given): |
122 |
|
123 |
#. Make a backup of the current configuration, for safety:: |
124 |
|
125 |
$ cp -a /var/lib/ganeti /var/lib/ganeti-1.2.backup |
126 |
|
127 |
#. Stop all instances:: |
128 |
|
129 |
$ gnt-instance stop --all |
130 |
|
131 |
#. Make sure no DRBD device are in use, the following command should show no |
132 |
active minors:: |
133 |
|
134 |
$ gnt-cluster command grep cs: /proc/drbd | grep -v cs:Unconf |
135 |
|
136 |
#. Stop the node daemons and rapi daemon on all nodes (note: should be logged |
137 |
in not via the cluster name, but the master node name, as the command below |
138 |
will remove the cluster ip from the master node):: |
139 |
|
140 |
$ gnt-cluster command /etc/init.d/ganeti stop |
141 |
|
142 |
#. Install the new software on all nodes, either from packaging (if available) |
143 |
or from sources; the master daemon will not start but give error messages |
144 |
about wrong configuration file, which is normal |
145 |
#. Upgrade the configuration file:: |
146 |
|
147 |
$ /usr/lib/ganeti/tools/cfgupgrade12 -v --dry-run |
148 |
$ /usr/lib/ganeti/tools/cfgupgrade12 -v |
149 |
|
150 |
#. Make sure ``ganeti-noded`` is running on all nodes (and start it if |
151 |
not) |
152 |
#. Start the master daemon:: |
153 |
|
154 |
$ ganeti-masterd |
155 |
|
156 |
#. Check that a simple node-list works:: |
157 |
|
158 |
$ gnt-node list |
159 |
|
160 |
#. Redistribute updated configuration to all nodes:: |
161 |
|
162 |
$ gnt-cluster redist-conf |
163 |
$ gnt-cluster copyfile /var/lib/ganeti/known_hosts |
164 |
|
165 |
#. Optional: if needed, install RAPI-specific certificates under |
166 |
:file:`/var/lib/ganeti/rapi.pem` and run:: |
167 |
|
168 |
$ gnt-cluster copyfile /var/lib/ganeti/rapi.pem |
169 |
|
170 |
#. Run a cluster verify, this should show no problems:: |
171 |
|
172 |
$ gnt-cluster verify |
173 |
|
174 |
#. Remove some obsolete files:: |
175 |
|
176 |
$ gnt-cluster command rm /var/lib/ganeti/ssconf_node_pass |
177 |
$ gnt-cluster command rm /var/lib/ganeti/ssconf_hypervisor |
178 |
|
179 |
#. Update the xen pvm (if this was a pvm cluster) setting for 1.2 |
180 |
compatibility:: |
181 |
|
182 |
$ gnt-cluster modify -H xen-pvm:root_path=/dev/sda |
183 |
|
184 |
#. Depending on your setup, you might also want to reset the initrd parameter:: |
185 |
|
186 |
$ gnt-cluster modify -H xen-pvm:initrd_path=/boot/initrd-2.6-xenU |
187 |
|
188 |
#. Reset the instance autobalance setting to default:: |
189 |
|
190 |
$ for i in $(gnt-instance list -o name --no-headers); do \ |
191 |
gnt-instance modify -B auto_balance=default $i; \ |
192 |
done |
193 |
|
194 |
#. Optional: start the RAPI demon:: |
195 |
|
196 |
$ ganeti-rapi |
197 |
|
198 |
#. Restart instances:: |
199 |
|
200 |
$ gnt-instance start --force-multiple --all |
201 |
|
202 |
At this point, ``gnt-cluster verify`` should show no errors and the migration |
203 |
is complete. |
204 |
|
205 |
1.2 releases |
206 |
------------ |
207 |
|
208 |
1.2.4 to any other higher 1.2 version |
209 |
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ |
210 |
|
211 |
No changes needed. Rollback will usually require manual edit of the |
212 |
configuration file. |
213 |
|
214 |
1.2.3 to 1.2.4 |
215 |
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ |
216 |
|
217 |
No changes needed. Note that going back from 1.2.4 to 1.2.3 will require manual |
218 |
edit of the configuration file (since we added some HVM-related new |
219 |
attributes). |
220 |
|
221 |
1.2.2 to 1.2.3 |
222 |
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ |
223 |
|
224 |
No changes needed. Note that the drbd7-to-8 upgrade tool does a disk format |
225 |
change for the DRBD metadata, so in theory this might be **risky**. It is |
226 |
advised to have (good) backups before doing the upgrade. |
227 |
|
228 |
1.2.1 to 1.2.2 |
229 |
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ |
230 |
|
231 |
No changes needed. |
232 |
|
233 |
1.2.0 to 1.2.1 |
234 |
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ |
235 |
|
236 |
No changes needed. Only some bugfixes and new additions that don't affect |
237 |
existing clusters. |
238 |
|
239 |
1.2.0 beta 3 to 1.2.0 |
240 |
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ |
241 |
|
242 |
No changes needed. |
243 |
|
244 |
1.2.0 beta 2 to beta 3 |
245 |
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ |
246 |
|
247 |
No changes needed. A new version of the debian-etch-instance OS (0.3) has been |
248 |
released, but upgrading it is not required. |
249 |
|
250 |
1.2.0 beta 1 to beta 2 |
251 |
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ |
252 |
|
253 |
Beta 2 switched the config file format to JSON. Steps to upgrade: |
254 |
|
255 |
#. Stop the daemons (``/etc/init.d/ganeti stop``) on all nodes |
256 |
#. Disable the cron job (default is :file:`/etc/cron.d/ganeti`) |
257 |
#. Install the new version |
258 |
#. Make a backup copy of the config file |
259 |
#. Upgrade the config file using the following command:: |
260 |
|
261 |
$ /usr/share/ganeti/cfgupgrade --verbose /var/lib/ganeti/config.data |
262 |
|
263 |
#. Start the daemons and run ``gnt-cluster info``, ``gnt-node list`` and |
264 |
``gnt-instance list`` to check if the upgrade process finished successfully |
265 |
|
266 |
The OS definition also need to be upgraded. There is a new version of the |
267 |
debian-etch-instance OS (0.2) that goes along with beta 2. |
