Test the designed deployment solution production-like test environment

[juhtornr]

Description

Test the deployment solution designed in #314 (still open) in production-like environment at CSC.

DoD (Definition of Done)

Two OpenShift clusters up and running in selected machines.

Testing

Peer review and file can be ingested (test using the sftp script).

We decided against using minishift in replicating a production-like environment and running an Openshift cluster locally.

General instructions:

• https://github.com/openshift/origin/blob/master/docs/cluster_up_down.md\
• https://docs.okd.io/latest/install/index.html
• https://github.com/isnuryusuf/openshift-install/blob/master/openshift-origin-quickstart.md

Installation [WIP] - to be updated

Install kubectl

curl -LO https://storage.googleapis.com/kubernetes-release/release/$(curl -s https://storage.googleapis.com/kubernetes-release/release/stable.txt)/bin/linux/amd64/kubectl
chmod +x ./kubectl
sudo mv ./kubectl /usr/local/bin/kubectl

Installing OpenShift origin

Instructions: https://github.com/openshift/origin#installation

wget https://github.com/openshift/origin/releases/download/v3.10.0/openshift-origin-client-tools-v3.10.0-dd10d17-linux-64bit.tar.gz
tar -xf openshift-origin-client-tools-v3.10.0-dd10d17-linux-64bit.tar.gz
mv openshift-origin-client-tools-v3.10.0-dd10d17-linux-64bit/oc /usr/local/bin/oc

After following prerequisites and trying to start the cluster with oc cluster up run into error:

Error: invalid configuration: Missing or incomplete configuration info.  Please login or point to an existing, complete config file:

  1. Via the command-line flag --config
  2. Via the KUBECONFIG environment variable
  3. In your home directory as ~/.kube/config

seems to be caused: E0925 <date pid> interface.go:34] Failed to install "openshift-web-console-operator": timed out waiting for the condition might be caused by: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1618311

oc cluster up currently hangs with:

Error: Error response from daemon: {"message": "no space left on device"}

Possible bugs:

• oc adm diagnostics produces: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1368865
• Error message "no space left on device" after executing command "oc cluster status" openshift/origin#20346
  cleaned images docker rmi -f $(docker images --quiet --filter "dangling=true") did not help
• Ubuntu 16.04 error on starting openshift cluster openshift/origin#20184

The definition of production-like environment has changed during last two months. At CSC we ended up using plain Kubernetes instead Openshift and we have now deployed that (see #360).
