I've been delving into Rook+Ceph for Kubernetes, trying to get it to work under Google Kubernetes Engine, and have hit a brick wall.
Following the documentation, I've run the following commands, and verified that each has had the intended effect:
kubectl create -f common.yaml
kubectl create -f operator.yaml
kubectl create -f cluster.yaml
kubectl create -f filesystem.yaml
The yaml files are all default as provided by Rook, with the exception of operator.yaml
, wherein I've added the following environment variable, as per the GKE docs:
- name: FLEXVOLUME_DIR_PATH
value: "/home/kubernetes/flexvolume"
I am unsure where to go from here, however. Their documentation has a sample file for creating a registry, which leads down a rabbit-hole of instructions which appear unrelated to what I'm trying to achieve.
Essentially, I want to be able to mount Ceph shared file storage as a volume from a regular ol' container image. I've tried the following yaml with no success:
apiVersion: v1
kind: Pod
metadata:
name: ubuntu
namespace: default
spec:
containers:
- name: ubuntu
image: ubuntu:bionic
command:
- sleep
- "3600"
imagePullPolicy: IfNotPresent
volumeMounts:
- name: image-store
mountPath: /mnt/shared
volumes:
- name: image-store
flexVolume:
driver: ceph.rook.io/rook
fsType: ceph
options:
fsName: myfs
clusterNamespace: rook-ceph
restartPolicy: Always
In my fairly limited knowledge, I can't see why this wouldn't work, but am getting the following output when doing kubectl describe pods ubuntu
:

Is there an example of how to achieve such a thing somewhere in the wild?
Make sure you fillfull every single prerequisities for Rook setup: rook_setup.
Then try to install :
nfs-common
on all your nodes.
