Convert Deployment to StatefulSet in Kubernetes

4/10/2020

I am trying to convert one Deployment to StatefulSet in Kubernetes. Below is my Deployment description .

# Please edit the object below. Lines beginning with a '#' will be ignored,
# and an empty file will abort the edit. If an error occurs while saving this file will be
# reopened with the relevant failures.

I have attached a persistent volume to this deployment , but i am losing the data whenever the pod is restarted. And now i am trying to convert this existing Deployment Type to statefulSet. I have followed several links , but in vain resulting in errors.

Could you help me.

You have few fields which can't be used in statefulset.

unknown field "strategy" in io.k8s.api.apps.v1.StatefulSetSpec

It should be UpdateStrategy

unknown field "progressDeadlineSeconds" in io.k8s.api.apps.v1.StatefulSetSpec

As far as I know it's deployment field, it's not available in statefulset.

ValidationError(StatefulSet.status): unknown field "availableReplicas" in io.k8s.api.apps.v1.StatefulSetStatus,

ValidationError(StatefulSet.status.conditions[0]): unknown field "lastUpdateTime" in io.k8s.api.apps.v1.StatefulSetCondition,

ValidationError(StatefulSet.status.conditions[1): unknown field "lastUpdateTime" in io.k8s.api.apps.v1.StatefulSetCondition]

You should delete everything from the status field. It's created after deployment.

ValidationError(StatefulSet.spec): missing required field "serviceName" in io.k8s.api.apps.v1.StatefulSetSpec

You have to add spec.serviceName with name of your service.

It should look like this

apiVersion: apps/v1
kind: StatefulSet
metadata:
  annotations:
    deployment.kubernetes.io/revision: "4"
  labels:
    run: jbpm-server-full
  name: jbpm-server-full
spec:
  replicas: 1
  serviceName: jbpm-server-servicename
  updateStrategy:
    type: RollingUpdate
  selector:
    matchLabels:
      run: jbpm-server-full
  template:
    metadata:
      labels:
        run: jbpm-server-full
    spec:
      terminationGracePeriodSeconds: 30
      containers:
      - name: jbpm-server-full
        image: jboss/jbpm-server-full:latest
        imagePullPolicy: Always
        ports:
        - containerPort: 8080
          protocol: TCP
        volumeMounts:
        - name: jbpm-pv-storage
          mountPath: /k8sdata/jbpmdata
  volumeClaimTemplates:
  - metadata:
      name: jbpm-pv-storage
    spec:
      accessModes: [ "ReadWriteOnce" ]
      storageClassName: "my-storage-class"
      resources:
        requests:
          storage: 1Gi

Links which might be helpful when working with statefulsets.
