故障的Kube.netes Ceph节点如何自动删除？

Question

On an environment with more than one node and using Ceph block volumes in RWO mode, if a node fails (is unreachable and will not come back soon) and the pod is rescheduled to another node, the pod can't start if it has a Ceph block PVC. The reason is that the volume is 'still being used' by the other pod (because as the node failed, its resources can't be removed properly).

If I remove the node from the cluster using kubectl delete node dead-node , the pod can start because the resources get removed.

How can I do this automatically? Some possibilities I have thought about are:

• Can I set a force detach timeout for the volume?
• Set a delete node timeout?
• Automatically delete a node with given taints?

I can use the ReadWriteMany mode with other volume types to be able to let the PV be used by more than one pod, but it is not ideal.

You can probably have a sidecar container and tweak the Readiness and Liveness probes in your pod so that the pod doesn't restart if a Ceph block volume is unreachable for some time by the container that it's using it. (There may be other implications to your application though)

Something like this:

apiVersion: v1
kind: Pod
metadata:
  labels:
    test: ceph
  name: ceph-exec
spec:
  containers:
  - name: liveness
    image: k8s.gcr.io/busybox
    args:
    - /bin/sh
    - -c
    - touch /tmp/healthy; sleep 30; rm -rf /tmp/healthy; sleep 600
    livenessProbe:
      exec:
        command:
        - cat
        - /tmp/healthy
      initialDelaySeconds: 5
      periodSeconds: 5
  - name: cephclient
    image: ceph
    volumeMounts:
    - name: ceph
      mountPath: /cephmountpoint
    livenessProbe:
      ... 👈 something
      initialDelaySeconds: 5
      periodSeconds: 3600 👈 make this real long
