Following the project from here, I am trying to integrate airflow kubernetes executor using NFS server as backed storage PV. I've a PV airflow-pv
which is linked with NFS server. Airflow webserver and scheduler are using a PVC airflow-pvc
which is bound with airflow-pv
. I've placed my dag files in NFS server /var/nfs/airflow/development/<dags/logs>
. I can see newly added DAGS in webserver UI aswell. However when I execute a DAG from UI, the scheduler fires a new POD for that tasks BUT the new worker pod fails to run saying
Unable to mount volumes for pod "tutorialprintdate-3e1a4443363e4c9f81fd63438cdb9873_development(976b1e64-b46d-11e9-92af-025000000001)": timeout expired waiting for volumes to attach or mount for pod "development"/"tutorialprintdate-3e1a4443363e4c9f81fd63438cdb9873". list of unmounted volumes=[airflow-dags]. list of unattached volumes=[airflow-dags airflow-logs airflow-config default-token-hjwth]

After firing a manual task, the logs of the Scheduler tells me that KubernetesExecutorConfig() executed with all values as None. Seems like it didn't picked up the configs ? I've tried almost everything I know of, but cannot manage to make it work. Could someone tell me waht am I missing ?

Using Airflow version: 1.10.3
Since no answer yet, I'll share my findings so far. In my airflow.conf under kubernetes
section, we are to pass the following values
dags_volume_claim = airflow-pvc
dags_volume_subpath = airflow/development/dags
logs_volume_claim = airflow-pvc
logs_volume_subpath = airflow/development/logs
the way how scheduler creates a new pod from the above configs is as follows (only mentioning the volumes and volumeMounts);
"volumes": [
{
"name": "airflow-dags",
"persistentVolumeClaim": {
"claimName": "airflow-pvc"
}
},
{
"name": "airflow-logs",
"persistentVolumeClaim": {
"claimName": "airflow-pvc"
}
}],
"containers": [
{ ...
"volumeMounts": [
{
"name": "airflow-dags",
"readOnly": true,
"mountPath": "/usr/local/airflow/dags",
"subPath": "airflow/development/dags"
},
{
"name": "airflow-logs",
"mountPath": "/usr/local/airflow/logs",
"subPath": "airflow/development/logs"
}]
...}]
K8s DOESN'T likes multiple volumes pointing to same pvc (airflow-pvc). To fix this, I'd to create two PVC (and PV) for dags and logs dags_volume_claim = airflow-dags-pvc
and logs_volume_claim = airflow-log-pvc
which works fine.
I don't kow if this has already been addressed in newer version of airflow (I am using 1.10.3). The airflow scheduler should handle this case when ppl using same PVC then create a pod with single volume and 2 volumeMounts referring to that Volume e.g.
"volumes": [
{
"name": "airflow-dags-logs", <--just an example name
"persistentVolumeClaim": {
"claimName": "airflow-pvc"
}
}
"containers": [
{ ...
"volumeMounts": [
{
"name": "airflow-dags-logs",
"readOnly": true,
"mountPath": "/usr/local/airflow/dags",
"subPath": "airflow/development/dags" <--taken from configs
},
{
"name": "airflow-dags-logs",
"mountPath": "/usr/local/airflow/logs",
"subPath": "airflow/development/logs" <--taken from configs
}]
...}]
I deployed a pod with above configurations and it works!
