Building and using your own golden image undocumented #294

cben · 2018-07-11T08:56:19Z

Hi. We (cc @nimrodshn) are trying out cluster-operator according to README, in fake=false mode.
We got MachineSet and Machine objects being created but we don't get any AWS instances.
Machine status remains at:

  status:
    lastUpdated: null
    providerStatus: null

Looking at pod logs it seems AWS credentials didn't make it into openshift-ansible:

Can you check out the logs for your aws-machine-controller pod in openshift-cluter-operator namespace, on the "root" cluster-operator cluster. (this is where the masters are currently created)

This indicates it cannot find the AMI configured in your cluster version. If you're just using our direct development playbooks, you'll see we loaded up a cluster version pointing to an AMI that is only available in our rh-dev account. I'm wondering if you guys are using a different AWS account?

If so you need to create your own cluster version, see oc get clusterversions -o yaml for what they look like, or this link for what we create them from: https://github.com/openshift/cluster-operator/blob/master/contrib/examples/cluster-versions-template.yaml

I don't think the AWS key is your issue at this point, pretty sure it's something else.

cben · 2018-07-11T11:51:32Z

yep we're using different AWS account.
Thanks, will look into it!

dgoodwin · 2018-07-11T12:17:08Z

You kind of need a "golden" image, we've been building our own (@abutcher has) for development which is what you see in our clusterversion by default.

I just cc'd you on an email, trying to track down where or what you could use on another account.

abutcher · 2018-07-11T20:03:14Z

I've been building our AMIs with https://github.com/openshift/openshift-ansible/blob/master/playbooks/aws/openshift-cluster/build_ami.yml.

cben · 2018-07-15T15:34:21Z

@abutcher Thanks! The READMEs under https://github.com/openshift/openshift-ansible/tree/master/playbooks/aws are pretty great, except for one Catch 22:
"A base AMI is required for AMI building. Please ensure `openshift_aws_base_ami` is defined."
I can't find any explanation in openshift-ansible repo what is expected from a "base AMI" and where do I find one 😕 (I'm really new to AWS and have zero idea what I'm doing 😄)

Gonna try a CentOS image...

cben · 2018-07-16T08:21:59Z

Tried a centos 7 AMI from centos wiki as base_ami, got:
Instance creation failed => AuthFailure: Not authorized for images: [ami-4bf3d731]

abutcher · 2018-07-16T14:13:41Z

My base ami is openshift_aws_base_ami: ami-b81dbfc5 which is a Centos 7 AMI on the marketplace.

cben · 2018-07-18T07:36:29Z

Thanks!!
I also had to click Subscribe and accept terms on Marketplace and then I was able to use it.

contacting centos list to suggest improvements https://wiki.centos.org/Cloud/AWS
I'll send an openshift-ansible docs PR about "base image".
Setting openshift_aws_build_ami_ssh_user: centos led to permission errors ("Destination /etc/pki/rpm-gpg not writable"...). Worked with become, become_user, and become_method. Checking whether I need to modify the playbooks or just document existing options... (g_sudo looks promising?)
3.10 doesn't build yet with CentOS because of missing origin-docker-excluder-3.10 package:
No package matching 'origin-docker-excluder-3.10**' found available, installed or updated openshift-ansible#7794. Checking workarounds suggested there...
Document in this repo that deploy-devel-playbook.yml uses contrib/examples/cluster-versions-template.yaml defaulting to non-public AMI. Link to how build your own image. Document or add param to choose your own AMI.

[STATUS: I'm taking a break from this, but I still intend to get the whole process tested & documented eventually]
