Search Operator

Deploys the Open Cluster Management Search v2 components.

Installing the Search Operator in a Red Hat OpenShift cluster

Prerequisites

  • You will need Operator SDK to install search operator bundle image. Download and install client version >= v1.15

  • You'll need Red Hat Advanced Cluster Management v2.5 or later.

  • Log into the cluster using CLI

    oc login https://yoururl.com:6443 -u kubeadmin -p yourpassword
  • Create Image pull secret to pull images from quay (Hub cluster)

    1. go to https://quay.io/user/<your_id>?tab=settings replacing <your_id> with your username
    2. click on Generate Encrypted Password
    3. enter your quay.io password
    4. select Kubernetes Secret from left-hand menu
    5. Download yaml file and rename secret as search-pull-secret

Automatic install

A script is provided which covers step 4 and 5 is provided in this repo for RHACM 2.6 version. You can launch the script and it will offer you the possibility to choose a version or use the default one. You will need to have the secret created in step 2. in the deploy folder.

cd ./scripts
./deploy.sh

Manual install

  1. Appply quay.io secret

    1. Ensure to be on your open-cluster-management namespace and run oc apply -f <your_secret.yaml>
    2. Verify secrets presence by running oc get secret | grep search-pull-secret

    IMPORTANT: The secret MUST be created with the name search-pull-secret

  2. Disable existing search component

    • Update the MulticlusterHub CR to disable the search component.
      oc patch mch multiclusterhub -n open-cluster-management --type=merge -p '{"spec":{"overrides":{"components":[{"name":"search","enabled": false}]}}}'

    After disabling the ACM search component, install the search operator (v2) in the open-cluster-management namespace.

  3. Run bundle

    operator-sdk run bundle quay.io/stolostron/search-operator-bundle@sha256:1a20394565bdc61870db1e4443d4d24d0d8eb2d65f3efdffd068cfd389b370ac --pull-secret-name search-pull-secret

    Wait for OLM has successfully installed "search-v2-operator.v0.0.1" message.

    NOTE: If you receive an error try adding this flag. --index-image=quay.io/operator-framework/opm:v1.23.0
    TIP: You can replace the image tag with other images in our Quay repo

  4. Apply the empty CR to create the search components

    oc apply -f config/samples/search_v1alpha1_search.yaml -n open-cluster-management

    IMPORTANT: The custom resource must be named search-v2-operator.

Verifying search-v2-operator installation

  1. On your hub cluster, list the pods. You should see the following pod running.
$ oc get pods -n open-cluster-management | grep search
search-api-5884985f56-tx4kl                                       1/1     Running     
search-collector-85db8d84cc-ndtm5                                 1/1     Running 
search-indexer-65f975b8b4-bn4lf                                   1/1     Running  
search-postgres-59b96c5486-xjs8p                                  1/1     Running
search-v2-operator-controller-manager-549ff4b78b-l9qs2            2/2     Running
  1. On the managed cluster (if you have managed clusters in hub), list the pods. You should see the following pod running.
$ oc get pods -n open-cluster-management-agent-addon | grep search
klusterlet-addon-search-7b6645bd4-h7pxj        1/1     Running

Uninstallation

You can uninstall the search-v2-operator using the following command.

operator-sdk cleanup search-v2-operator

You can also use the deployer script which will also restore the search v1 and cleanup the secret

cd ./scripts
./deploy.sh -u

Development

DO NOT change files /bundle/manifests manually. This project uses kustomize and kubebuilder to generate the bundle files.

Running locally:

  • Use make setup to configure the local environment.
  • Use make run to start locally. It will read/write resources on your current target OCP cluster.
    • If you see errors, use make clean to reset the bin directory.

Making changes:

  • Use make manifests and make bundle to propagate your changes into the bundle directory.
  • Validate the generated bundle manifest files with:
    oc apply -f bundle/manifests --dry-run=server 
  • Update the CRDs in your target cluster with make install.

Committing changes:

  • Run make generate; make manifests; make bundle before committing changes.

Building search-v2-operator in local machine

This step is only required if you made code changes to search-v2-operator runtime. You DO NOT need to run this steps if you only update the search components tag in search-v2-operator.clusterserviceversion.yaml. You can jump to step (4)

  1. Download and install operator-sdk client version >= v1.15

    https://sdk.operatorframework.io/docs/installation/
  2. Build the operator and push to quay

    export IMG=quay.io/<your_id>/search-v2-operator:v0.0.1
    make docker-build docker-push
  3. Update the operator version in bundle clusterserviceversion to use the image built in step (2)

    Update the file search-v2-operator/bundle/manifests/search-v2-operator.clusterserviceversion.yaml in the container named manager to use the image above.

    Building search-v2-operator-bundle in your cluster:

    If you want to replace any PR images for any of the search components, you can update in search-v2-operator.clusterserviceversion.yaml file by replacing the tag.

  4. Build the bundle image and push to quay

    export BUNDLE_IMG=quay.io/<your_id>/search-v2-operator-bundle:v0.0.1
    make bundle-build bundle-push
  5. Create the Image pull secret to pull image from quay

    go to https://quay.io/user/<your_id>?tab=settings replacing <your_id> with your username
    click on Generate Encrypted Password
    enter your quay.io password
    select Kubernetes Secret from left-hand menu
    Download yaml file and rename secret as  `search-pull-secret`
    oc apply -f <your_secret.yaml>
    

    Verify secret is present by running

    oc get secret | grep search-pull-secret
  6. Login to you Openshift cluster, and run the bundle

    operator-sdk run bundle $BUNDLE_IMG --pull-secret-name search-pull-secret
  7. Verify the pods Review the output bundle installation is completed sucessfully

    oc get pods | grep search-v2-operator
  8. Apply the empty CR to create the search components

    oc apply -f config/samples/search_v1alpha1_search.yaml
  9. Verify for following search pods are running

    oc get pod -n open-cluster-management |grep search-
    search-api
    search-collector
    search-indexer
    search-postgres

How to use a custom/PR operator image in cluster for testing

  1. Create a configmap pointing to the custom/PR image
    oc apply -f - <<EOF
    apiVersion: v1
    kind: ConfigMap
    metadata:
    name: searchoperatorimagecm
    namespace: open-cluster-management      # this is the MCH namespace
    data:
    manifest.json: |-
        [
        {
            "image-remote": "quay.io/stolostron",
            "image-key":    "search_v2_operator",
            "image-name":   "search-v2-operator",
            "image-digest": "sha256:773dad423666ca95f27ffc49f117db2c7fab70252abd21a7f4c844986418fa60"
        }
        ]
    EOF
    
  2. Annotate MCH to point to this configmap
    kubectl annotate mch multiclusterhub --overwrite mch-imageOverridesCM=searchoperatorimagecm # Provide the configmap as an override to the MCH
    
  3. Point back to the original image Remove this annotation to revert back to the original manifest
    kubectl annotate mch multiclusterhub mch-imageOverridesCM- --overwrite # Remove annotation   
    
    kubectl delete configmap searchoperatorimagecm # Delete configmap
    

Features

Global Search

NOTE: The global search feature is tech preview as of ACM 2.11.

Use global search in environments with the Multicluster Global Hub operator to federate the search queries to the managed hubs.

To enable global search, add the annotation global-search-preview=true to the search operator instance.

oc annotate search search-v2-operator -n open-cluster-management 'global-search-preview=true'
