Remote NSMgr + Remote NSE restart

This example shows that NSM keeps working after the remote NSMgr + remote NSE restart.

NSC and NSE are using the kernel mechanism to connect to its local forwarder. Forwarders are using the vxlan mechanism to connect with each other.

Requires

Make sure that you have completed steps from basic or memory setup.

Run

Create test namespace:

NAMESPACE=($(kubectl create -f https://raw.githubusercontent.com/networkservicemesh/deployments-k8s/94bde617f7939b9fd990840e80a6f2124e1c8e83/examples/heal/namespace.yaml)[0])
NAMESPACE=${NAMESPACE:10}

Get nodes exclude control-plane:

NODES=($(kubectl get nodes -o go-template='{{range .items}}{{ if not .spec.taints  }}{{index .metadata.labels "kubernetes.io/hostname"}} {{end}}{{end}}'))

Create customization file:

cat > kustomization.yaml <<EOF
---
apiVersion: kustomize.config.k8s.io/v1beta1
kind: Kustomization

namespace: ${NAMESPACE}

Create NSC patch:

Deploy NSC and NSE:

kubectl apply -k .

Wait for applications ready:

kubectl wait --for=condition=ready --timeout=1m pod -l app=nsc-kernel -n ${NAMESPACE}

kubectl wait --for=condition=ready --timeout=1m pod -l app=nse-kernel -n ${NAMESPACE}

Find NSC and NSE pods by labels:

NSC=$(kubectl get pods -l app=nsc-kernel -n ${NAMESPACE} --template '{{range .items}}{{.metadata.name}}{{"\n"}}{{end}}')

NSE=$(kubectl get pods -l app=nse-kernel -n ${NAMESPACE} --template '{{range .items}}{{.metadata.name}}{{"\n"}}{{end}}')

Ping from NSC to NSE:

kubectl exec ${NSC} -n ${NAMESPACE} -- ping -c 4 172.16.1.100

Ping from NSE to NSC:

kubectl exec ${NSE} -n ${NAMESPACE} -- ping -c 4 172.16.1.101

Create a new NSE patch:

cat > patch-nse.yaml <<EOF
---
apiVersion: apps/v1
kind: Deployment
metadata:
  name: nse-kernel
spec:
  template:
    metadata:
      labels:

    spec:
      containers:

            - name: NSM_CIDR_PREFIX
              value: 172.16.1.102/31
      nodeSelector:
        kubernetes.io/hostname: ${NODES[1]}
EOF

Find remote NSMgr pod:

NSMGR=$(kubectl get pods -l app=nsmgr --field-selector spec.nodeName==${NODES[1]} -n nsm-system --template '{{range .items}}{{.metadata.name}}{{"\n"}}{{end}}')

Restart remote NSMgr and NSE:

kubectl delete pod ${NSMGR} -n nsm-system

kubectl apply -k .

Waiting for new ones:

kubectl wait --for=condition=ready --timeout=1m pod -l app=nsmgr --field-selector spec.nodeName==${NODES[1]} -n nsm-system

kubectl wait --for=condition=ready --timeout=1m pod -l app=nse-kernel -l version=new -n ${NAMESPACE}

Find new NSE pod:

NEW_NSE=$(kubectl get pods -l app=nse-kernel -l version=new -n ${NAMESPACE} --template '{{range .items}}{{.metadata.name}}{{"\n"}}{{end}}')

Ping from NSC to new NSE:

kubectl exec ${NSC} -n ${NAMESPACE} -- ping -c 4 172.16.1.102

Ping from new NSE to NSC:

kubectl exec ${NEW_NSE} -n ${NAMESPACE} -- ping -c 4 172.16.1.103

Cleanup

Delete ns:

kubectl delete ns ${NAMESPACE}
