KubeVirt Outage Scenarios using Krkn-Hub
This scenario deletes a VMI matching the namespace and name on a Kubernetes/OpenShift cluster.
Run
If enabling Cerberus to monitor the cluster and pass/fail the scenario post chaos, refer docs. Make sure to start it before injecting the chaos and set CERBERUS_ENABLED environment variable for the chaos injection container to autoconnect.
$ podman run --name=<container_name> --net=host --env-host=true -v <path-to-kube-config>:/home/krkn/.kube/config:Z -d containers.krkn-chaos.dev/krkn-chaos/krkn-hub:kubevirt-outage
$ podman logs -f <container_name or container_id> # Streams Kraken logs
$ podman inspect <container-name or container-id> --format "{{.State.ExitCode}}" # Outputs exit code which can considered as pass/fail for the scenario
Note
–env-host: This option is not available with the remote Podman client, including Mac and Windows (excluding WSL2) machines. Without the –env-host option you’ll have to set each enviornment variable on the podman command line like-e <VARIABLE>=<value>$ docker run $(./get_docker_params.sh) --name=<container_name> --net=host -v <path-to-kube-config>:/home/krkn/.kube/config:Z -d containers.krkn-chaos.dev/krkn-chaos/krkn-hub:kubevirt-outage
OR
$ docker run -e <VARIABLE>=<value> --net=host -v <path-to-kube-config>:/home/krkn/.kube/config:Z -d containers.krkn-chaos.dev/krkn-chaos/krkn-hub:kubevirt-outage
$ docker logs -f <container_name or container_id> # Streams Kraken logs
$ docker inspect <container-name or container-id> --format "{{.State.ExitCode}}" # Outputs exit code which can considered as pass/fail for the scenario
Tip
Because the container runs with a non-root user, ensure the kube config is globally readable before mounting it in the container. You can achieve this with the following commands:kubectl config view --flatten > ~/kubeconfig && chmod 444 ~/kubeconfig && docker run $(./get_docker_params.sh) --name=<container_name> --net=host -v ~kubeconfig:/home/krkn/.kube/config:Z -d containers.krkn-chaos.dev/krkn-chaos/krkn-hub:<scenario>Supported parameters
The following environment variables can be set on the host running the container to tweak the scenario/faults being injected:
Example if –env-host is used:
export <parameter_name>=<value>
OR on the command line like example:
-e <VARIABLE>=<value>
See list of variables that apply to all scenarios here that can be used/set in addition to these scenario specific variables
| Parameter | Description | Default |
|---|---|---|
| NAMESPACE | VMI Namespace to target | "" |
| VMI_NAME | VMI name to delete, supports regex | "" |
| TIMEOUT | Timeout to wait for VMI to start running again, will fail if timeout is hit | 120 |
NoteIn case of using custom metrics profile or alerts profile whenCAPTURE_METRICS or ENABLE_ALERTS is enabled, mount the metrics profile from the host on which the container is run using podman/docker under /home/krkn/kraken/config/metrics-aggregated.yaml and /home/krkn/kraken/config/alerts. | ||
| For example: |
$ podman run --name=<container_name> --net=host --env-host=true -v <path-to-custom-metrics-profile>:/home/krkn/kraken/config/metrics-aggregated.yaml -v <path-to-custom-alerts-profile>:/home/krkn/kraken/config/alerts -v <path-to-kube-config>:/home/krkn/.kube/config:Z -d containers.krkn-chaos.dev/krkn-chaos/krkn-hub:kubevirt-outage
