Krew Plugin

The Rook Krew plugin is a tool to help troubleshoot your Rook cluster. Here are a few of the operations that the plugin will assist with: - Health of the Rook pods - Health of the Ceph cluster - Create "debug" pods for mons and OSDs that are in need of special Ceph maintenance operations - Restart the operator - Purge an OSD - Run any ceph command

See the kubectl-rook-ceph documentation for more details.

Installation¶

• Install Krew
• Install Rook plugin

  1	kubectl krew install rook-ceph

Ceph Commands¶

• Run any ceph command with kubectl rook-ceph ceph <args>. For example, get the Ceph status:

Debug Mode¶

Debug mode can be useful when a MON or OSD needs advanced maintenance operations that require the daemon to be stopped. Ceph tools such as ceph-objectstore-tool, ceph-bluestore-tool, or ceph-monstore-tool are commonly used in these scenarios. Debug mode will set up the MON or OSD so that these commands can be run.

• Start the debug pod for mon b

  1	kubectl rook-ceph debug start rook-ceph-mon-b

• Stop the debug pod for mon b

  1	kubectl rook-ceph debug stop rook-ceph-mon-b
