How can I explore Kubernetes folder? - kubernetes

I tried to start fabric on kubernetes.
Then I get this issue CrashLoopBackOff. After search a bit, I can see from the logs that
2019-06-05 07:30:19.216 UTC [main] main -> ERRO 001 Cannot run peer because error when setting up MSP from directory /etc/hyperledger/fabric/msp: err Could not load a valid signer certificate from directory /etc/hyperledger/fabric/msp/signcerts, err stat /etc/hyperledger/fabric/msp/signcerts: no such file or directory
How can I see if I am mounting the correct folder?
I want to access my crashed container to check if my msp folder are there.
Any help is appreciated!

You can do a kubectl edit pod <podname> -n <namespace> and change the command section to sleep 1000000000 then the pod will restart and you can get in there and see whats going. Or just delete the deployment, edit your yaml to remove the peer launch command, redeploy your yaml and see how the directories are laid out.

After a bit searching, I tried to mount the volume to nginx Kubernetes PVC sample. Changing the pods claimName to my created pvc. From there I exec bash to it and explore my file. Then I can see if I did mount the correct folder or not.

Create Prometheus Pod with persistent volume on GKE

Hey everyone Maybe you can help me :)
I created a Kubernetes test environment on GKE and try to deploy a monitoring solution on Prometheus platform.
I created the a StorageClass:
apiVersion: storage.k8s.io/v1
kind: StorageClass
metadata:
name: gce-pd-retained
reclaimPolicy: Retain
provisioner: kubernetes.io/gce-pd
parameters:
type: pd-standard
replication-type: none
Then, created the PVC:
apiVersion: v1
kind: PersistentVolumeClaim
metadata:
name: pvc-demo-disk
spec:
accessModes:
- ReadWriteOnce
storageClassName: gce-pd-retained
resources:
requests:
storage: 10Gi
I saw that the disk is created on the UI
Then I created the Pod:
apiVersion: v1
kind: Pod
metadata:
name: promepod
spec:
containers:
- name: prome
image: prom/prometheus
args:
- "--storage.tsdb.retention.time=12h"
- "--config.file=/etc/prometheus/prometheus.yml"
- "--storage.tsdb.path=/prometheus/"
volumeMounts:
- name: testvlm
mountPath: /etc/prometheus/
- name: testvlm
mountPath: /prometheus/
volumes:
- name: testvlm
persistentVolumeClaim:
claimName: pvc-demo-disk
But it keep failing with this error:
ts=2022-11-05T11:58:00.825Z caller=main.go:455 level=error msg="Error loading config (--config.file=/etc/prometheus/prometheus.yml)" file=/etc/prometheus/prometheus.yml err="open /etc/prometheus/prometheus.yml: no such file or directory"
anyone can guide me what am I doing wrong?

Kubernetes use the same volumeMount in initContainer and Container

I am trying to get a volume mounted as a non-root user in one of my containers. I'm trying an approach from this SO post using an initContainer to set the correct user, but when I try to start the configuration I get an "unbound immediate PersistentVolumneClaims" error. I suspect it's because the volume is mounted in both my initContainer and container, but I'm not sure why that would be the issue: I can see the initContainer taking the claim, but I would have thought when it exited that it would release it, letting the normal container take the claim. Any ideas or alternatives to getting the directory mounted as a non-root user? I did try using securityContext/fsGroup, but that seemed to have no effect. The /var/rdf4j directory below is the one that is being mounted as root.

Solution
As it turns out the problem was that the initContainer wasn't running as root, it was running as the default user of the container, and so didn't have the permissions to run the chown command. In the linked SO comment, this was the first comment to the answer, with the response being that the initContainer ran as root - this has apparently changed in newer versions of kubernetes. There is a solution though, you can set the securityContext on the container to run as root, giving it permission to run the chown command, and that successfully allows the volume to be mounted as a non-root user. Here's the final configuration of the initContainer.
initContainers:
- name: take-data-dir-ownership
image: eclipse/rdf4j-workbench:amd64-3.5.0
securityContext:
runAsUser: 0
command:
- chown
- -R
- 100:65533
- /var/rdf4j
volumeMounts:
- name: storage
mountPath: /var/rdf4j
1 pod has unbound immediate PersistentVolumeClaims. - this error means the pod cannot bound to the PVC on the node where it has been scheduled to run on. This can happen when the PVC bounded to a PV that refers to a location that is not valid on the node that the pod is scheduled to run on. It will be helpful if you can post the complete output of kubectl get nodes -o wide, kubectl describe pvc triplestore-data-storage, kubectl describe pv triplestore-data-storage-dir to the question.
The mean time, PVC/PV is optional when using hostPath, can you try the following spec and see if the pod can come online:

Getting error mkdir: cannot create directory ‘/bitnami/rabbitmq’: Permission denied when creating Kubernetes pod of Rabbitmq

While learning Kubernetes going by the book Kubernetes for developer, I am stuck at this point now.
I am trying to start Rabbitmq pod but but after lot of troubleshooting I have managed to get to this point but do not get clue where do I fix to get rid of the permission denied error.

When creating an image, the image creator often chooses to use a user other than root to run the process. This is the case for your image, and the user does not have write permissions on the /bitnami directory. You can verify this by commenting out the volume.
To fix the issue, you need to set a security contect for your pod: https://kubernetes.io/docs/tasks/configure-pod-container/security-context/#set-the-security-context-for-a-pod
Not sure about the exact syntax, but something like this should do the trick:
spec:
securityContext:
fsGroup: 1001 # the userid that is used in the image
nodeSelector:
boardType: x86vm
containers:
- name: rabbitmq
image: bitnami/rabbitmq:3.7
envFrom:
- configMapRef:
name: bitnami-rabbitmq-config
This makes the directory writeable by the user in the image.
Another thing: A deployment is for stateless services by design. If you have state to keep, always use a statefulset. It's very similiar to a deployment from a configuration point of view, but Kubernetes treats it very differently. See https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Vrxr-7rjkvM for good explanation.
As per bitnami documentation, it depends on the kubernetes distribution
Quote from documentation
Adjust permissions of persistent volume mountpoint
As the image run as non-root by default, it is necessary to adjust the ownership of the persistent volume so that the container can write data into it.
By default, the chart is configured to use Kubernetes Security Context to automatically change the ownership of the volume. However, this feature does not work in all Kubernetes distributions. As an alternative, this chart supports using an initContainer to change the ownership of the volume before mounting it in the final destination.
You can enable this initContainer by setting volumePermissions.enabled to true.

StatefulSet replicas on a node has shared memory

I am trying to deploy a stateful set of IPFS replicas on three Kubernetes worker nodes (based on this repo). The first three replicas work properly, but when it comes to the fourth one, it appears that the persistentVolumeClaims point to the shared physical memory. Therefore, the fourth node cannot acquire the lock. What would be the standard way to deploy many IPFS replicas in Kubernetes?
The fourth node printed the following log:
08:44:19.785 DEBUG cmd/ipfs: config path is /data/ipfs main.go:257

Shared PersistentVolumeClaim with 2 mount paths not working

I have provisioned NFS over DigitalOcean block storage to have readwritemany access mode, now i am able to share PV between deployments, but i am unable to share it within the deployment when i have multiple mount paths with same claim name. Can someone kindly comment why this is happening, is it the right way to use PV, and if NFS doesnt support this what else can i use that will enable me to share volumes between pods with multiple mount paths with.

As I mentioned in comments you could try to use subPath, take a look at kubernetes and openshift documentation about it.
Sometimes, it is useful to share one volume for multiple uses in a single Pod. The volumeMounts.subPath property can be used to specify a sub-path inside the referenced volume instead of its root.
Here is an example of a Pod with a LAMP stack (Linux Apache Mysql PHP) using a single, shared volume. The HTML contents are mapped to its html folder, and the databases will be stored in its mysql folder:
apiVersion: v1
kind: Pod
metadata:
name: my-lamp-site
spec:
containers:
- name: mysql
image: mysql
env:
- name: MYSQL_ROOT_PASSWORD
value: "rootpasswd"
volumeMounts:
- mountPath: /var/lib/mysql
name: site-data
subPath: mysql
- name: php
image: php:7.0-apache
volumeMounts:
- mountPath: /var/www/html
name: site-data
subPath: html
volumes:
- name: site-data
persistentVolumeClaim:
claimName: my-lamp-site-data
Databases are stored in the mysql folder.
HTML content is stored in the html folder.
If that won´t work for you I would say you have to use pvc for every mount path.
Like for example here.
apiVersion: v1
kind: Pod
metadata:
name: nfs-web
spec:
volumes:
# List of volumes to use, i.e. *what* to mount
- name: myvolume
