Fixed In Version:
Doc Type: Known Issue
Doc Text:
Cause: When ImageStreams are created, only a subset of the available tags are imported, and this often excluded the desired tag. Consequence: If the desired tag isn't imported, then the corresponding component never deploys. Workaround (if any): Import each tag manually like so: oc import-image <name>:<version> --from <prefix><name>:<tag> The bug is fixed in 3.3 by not relying on ImageStreams and DC triggers for deployment. Result: Deployment occurs as expected.

Description Luke Meyer 2016-05-23 18:31:41 UTC
Description of problem:
Refer to issue https://github.com/openshift/origin/issues/8948

The logging deployment sets up ImageStreams and related DeploymentConfigs. Triggers on each DC result in deployment once the necessary tag is imported into the IS. However, it turns out that only a subset of the available tags are imported automatically (ref https://github.com/openshift/origin/issues/8952), and 3.2.0 (the current default) is frequently not among them. Thus deployment never occurs.


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
Noticed most frequently with 3.2.0, however it will probably affect all versions.

How reproducible:
More often than not. It's not clear why sometimes v3.2 is imported versus 3.2.0.


Steps to Reproduce:
1. Follow deployment instructions at https://docs.openshift.com/enterprise/3.2/install_config/aggregate_logging.html

Actual results:
Deployment occurs in some cases, but not others. In the cases where it doesn't, it's because the 3.2.0 tag was not imported, although "latest" and "v3.2" (which have the same image ID) are.

Expected results:
Consistent deployment.


Additional info:
The quick "fix" will be to update docs to indicate the following workaround:

$ oc import-image logging-auth-proxy:3.2.0 \
     --from registry.access.redhat.com/openshift3/logging-auth-proxy:3.2.0 
$ oc import-image logging-kibana:3.2.0 \
     --from registry.access.redhat.com/openshift3/logging-kibana:3.2.0
$ oc import-image logging-elasticsearch:3.2.0 \
     --from registry.access.redhat.com/openshift3/logging-elasticsearch:3.2.0
$ oc import-image logging-fluentd:3.2.0 \
     --from registry.access.redhat.com/openshift3/logging-fluentd:3.2.0

As a more permanent fix, we will dispense with the ImageStreams and triggers, simply deploying the intended images directly.

logging: manually import tags for deployment

Docs fix to bug 1338965
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1338965

This is an ugly workaround, but hopefully short-term.

Docs workaround at https://github.com/openshift/openshift-docs/pull/2141

Comment 5 Josep 'Pep' Turro Mauri 2016-06-23 11:10:42 UTC
While there's a docs workaround that helps in the logging deployment (and possibly others), shouldn't this track the problem of import-image?

I.e. https://github.com/openshift/origin/pull/9163

and if so, we should probably move it from Logging to CLI.

I wouldn't expect that to get into Enterprise before 3.3, and by that time I fully expect to have eliminated the problem by removing the usage of ImageStreams in logging deployment.

Agree a note in the upgrade doc would help too until then.

Could you validate that https://github.com/openshift/openshift-docs/pull/2428 addresses the problem and the upgrade sequence works with this in place?

I think we'll want to keep this bug open to track the ultimate solution to this; docs are a stopgap.

Comment 8 Xia Zhao 2016-07-01 03:29:22 UTC
@lmeyer The modification on upgrade doc and also the sequence mentioned looks good to me.

Comment 9 Luke Meyer 2016-07-01 20:26:50 UTC
Note published in the upgrade docs https://docs.openshift.com/enterprise/latest/install_config/upgrading/manual_upgrades.html#manual-upgrading-efk-logging-stack

Keeping the bug open for tracking removing imagestreams entirely.

Comment 10 Luke Meyer 2016-08-17 18:57:32 UTC
As of 3.3 imagestreams and DC triggers are not a part of the deployment, so this should not be a problem.

Comment 12 Xia Zhao 2016-08-19 02:59:21 UTC
Yes, we never encountered this issue with the 3.3.0 logging deployer, set to verified.
