Deploying OpenShift Advanced Data Protection on a ROSA cluster

Prerequisites

Getting Started

  1. Create the following environment variables

    Change the cluster name to match your ROSA cluster and ensure you’re logged into the cluster as an Administrator. Ensure all fields are outputted correctly before moving on.

    export CLUSTER_NAME=my-cluster
export ROSA_CLUSTER_ID=$(rosa describe cluster -c ${CLUSTER_NAME} --output json | jq -r .id)
export REGION=$(rosa describe cluster -c ${CLUSTER_NAME} --output json | jq -r .region.id)
export OIDC_ENDPOINT=$(oc get authentication.config.openshift.io cluster -o json | jq -r .spec.serviceAccountIssuer)
export AWS_ACCOUNT_ID=`aws sts get-caller-identity --query Account --output text`
export CLUSTER_VERSION=`rosa describe cluster -c ${CLUSTER_NAME} -o json | jq -r .version.raw_id | cut -f -2 -d '.'`
export ROLE_NAME="${CLUSTER_NAME}-openshift-oadp-aws-cloud-credentials"
export AWS_PAGER=""
export SCRATCH="/tmp/${CLUSTER_NAME}/oadp"
mkdir -p ${SCRATCH}
echo "Cluster ID: ${ROSA_CLUSTER_ID}, Region: ${REGION}, OIDC Endpoint: ${OIDC_ENDPOINT}, AWS Account ID: ${AWS_ACCOUNT_ID}"

Prepare AWS Account

  1. Create an IAM Policy to allow for S3 Access

    POLICY_ARN=$(aws iam list-policies --query "Policies[?PolicyName=='RosaOadp'].{ARN:Arn}" --output text)
if [[ -z "${POLICY_ARN}" ]]; then
cat << EOF > ${SCRATCH}/policy.json
{
"Version": "2012-10-17",
"Statement": [
  {
    "Effect": "Allow",
    "Action": [
      "s3:CreateBucket",
      "s3:DeleteBucket",
      "s3:PutBucketTagging",
      "s3:GetBucketTagging",
      "s3:PutEncryptionConfiguration",
      "s3:GetEncryptionConfiguration",
      "s3:PutLifecycleConfiguration",
      "s3:GetLifecycleConfiguration",
      "s3:GetBucketLocation",
      "s3:ListBucket",
      "s3:GetObject",
      "s3:PutObject",
      "s3:DeleteObject",
      "s3:ListBucketMultipartUploads",
      "s3:AbortMultipartUpload",
      "s3:ListMultipartUploadParts",
      "ec2:DescribeSnapshots",
      "ec2:CreateTags",
      "ec2:CreateVolume",
      "ec2:CreateSnapshot",
      "ec2:DeleteSnapshot"
    ],
    "Resource": "*"
  }
 ]}
EOF
POLICY_ARN=$(aws iam create-policy --policy-name "RosaOadp" \
--policy-document file:///${SCRATCH}/policy.json --query Policy.Arn \
--tags Key=rosa_openshift_version,Value=4.9 Key=rosa_role_prefix,Value=ManagedOpenShift Key=operator_namespace,Value=openshift-oadp Key=operator_name,Value=openshift-oadp \
--output text)
fi
echo ${POLICY_ARN}

  2. Create an IAM Role trust policy for the cluster

    cat <<EOF > ${SCRATCH}/trust-policy.json
{
   "Version": "2012-10-17",
   "Statement": [{
     "Effect": "Allow",
     "Principal": {
       "Federated": "arn:aws:iam::${AWS_ACCOUNT_ID}:oidc-provider/rh-oidc.s3.us-east-1.amazonaws.com/${ROSA_CLUSTER_ID}"
     },
     "Action": "sts:AssumeRoleWithWebIdentity",
     "Condition": {
       "StringEquals": {
          "rh-oidc.s3.us-east-1.amazonaws.com/${ROSA_CLUSTER_ID}:sub": [
            "system:serviceaccount:openshift-adp:openshift-adp-controller-manager",
            "system:serviceaccount:openshift-adp:velero"]
       }
     }
   }]
}
EOF
ROLE_ARN=$(aws iam create-role --role-name \
  "${ROLE_NAME}" \
   --assume-role-policy-document file://${SCRATCH}/trust-policy.json \
   --tags Key=rosa_cluster_id,Value=${ROSA_CLUSTER_ID} Key=rosa_openshift_version,Value=${CLUSTER_VERSION} Key=rosa_role_prefix,Value=ManagedOpenShift Key=operator_namespace,Value=openshift-adp Key=operator_name,Value=openshift-oadp \
   --query Role.Arn --output text)

echo ${ROLE_ARN}

  3. Attach the IAM Policy to the IAM Role

    aws iam attach-role-policy --role-name "${ROLE_NAME}" \
  --policy-arn ${POLICY_ARN}

Deploy OADP on cluster

  1. Create a namespace for OADP

    oc create namespace openshift-adp

  2. Create a credentials secret

    cat <<EOF > ${SCRATCH}/credentials
[default]
role_arn = ${ROLE_ARN}
web_identity_token_file = /var/run/secrets/openshift/serviceaccount/token
EOF
oc -n openshift-adp create secret generic cloud-credentials \
  --from-file=${SCRATCH}/credentials

  3. Deploy OADP Operator

    cat << EOF | oc create -f -
apiVersion: operators.coreos.com/v1
kind: OperatorGroup
metadata:
  generateName: openshift-adp-
  namespace: openshift-adp
  name: oadp
spec:
  targetNamespaces:
  - openshift-adp
---
apiVersion: operators.coreos.com/v1alpha1
kind: Subscription
metadata:
  labels:
    operators.coreos.com/oadp-operator.openshift-adp: ""
  name: oadp-operator
  namespace: openshift-adp
spec:
  channel: stable
  installPlanApproval: Automatic
  name: oadp-operator
  source: community-operators
  sourceNamespace: openshift-marketplace
  startingCSV: oadp-operator.v0.5.6
EOF

  4. Wait for the operator to be ready

    watch oc -n openshift-adp get pods

    NAME                                                READY   STATUS    RESTARTS   AGE
openshift-adp-controller-manager-546684844f-qqjhn   1/1     Running   0          22s

  5. Create Cloud Storage

    cat << EOF | oc create -f -
apiVersion: oadp.openshift.io/v1alpha1
kind: CloudStorage
metadata:
  name: ${CLUSTER_NAME}-oadp
  namespace: openshift-adp
spec:
  creationSecret:
    key: credentials
    name: cloud-credentials
  enableSharedConfig: true
  name: ${CLUSTER_NAME}-oadp
  provider: aws
  region: $REGION
EOF

  6. Deploy a Data Protection Application

    cat << EOF | oc create -f -
apiVersion: oadp.openshift.io/v1alpha1
kind: DataProtectionApplication
metadata:
  name: ${CLUSTER_NAME}-dpa
  namespace: openshift-adp
spec:
  backupLocations:
  - bucket:
      cloudStorageRef:
        name: ${CLUSTER_NAME}-oadp
      credential:
        key: credentials
        name: cloud-credentials
      default: true
  configuration:
    velero:
      defaultPlugins:
      - openshift
      - aws
      restic:
        enable: false
  volumeSnapshots:
  - velero:
      config:
        credentialsFile: /tmp/credentials/openshift-adp/cloud-credentials-credentials
        enableSharedConfig: "true"
        region: ${REGION}
      provider: aws
EOF

Perform a backup

  1. Create a workload to backup

    oc create namespace hello-world
oc new-app -n hello-world --docker-image=docker.io/openshift/hello-openshift

  2. Backup workload

    cat << EOF | oc create -f -
apiVersion: velero.io/v1
kind: Backup
metadata:
  name: hello-world
  namespace: openshift-adp
spec:
  includedNamespaces:
  - hello-world
  storageLocation: ${CLUSTER_NAME}-dpa-1
  ttl: 720h0m0s
EOF

  3. Wait until backup is done

    watch "oc -n openshift-adp get backup hello-world -o json | jq .status"

    {
  "completionTimestamp": "2022-09-07T22:20:44Z",
  "expiration": "2022-10-07T22:20:22Z",
  "formatVersion": "1.1.0",
  "phase": "Completed",
  "progress": {
    "itemsBackedUp": 58,
    "totalItems": 58
  },
  "startTimestamp": "2022-09-07T22:20:22Z",
  "version": 1
}

  4. Delete the demo workload

    oc delete ns hello-world

  5. Restore from the backup

    cat << EOF | oc create -f -
apiVersion: velero.io/v1
kind: Restore
metadata:
  name: hello-world
  namespace: openshift-adp
spec:
  backupName: hello-world
EOF

  6. Wait for the Restore to finish

    watch "oc -n openshift-adp get restore hello-world -o json | jq .status"

    {
  "completionTimestamp": "2022-09-07T22:25:47Z",
  "phase": "Completed",
  "progress": {
    "itemsRestored": 38,
    "totalItems": 38
  },
  "startTimestamp": "2022-09-07T22:25:28Z",
  "warnings": 9
}

  7. Check the workload is restored

    oc -n hello-world get pods

    NAME                              READY   STATUS    RESTARTS   AGE
hello-openshift-9f885f7c6-kdjpj   1/1     Running   0          90s

Cleanup

  1. Delete the workload

    oc delete ns hello-world

  2. Delete the Data Protection Application

    oc delete dpa ${CLUSTER_NAME}-dpa

  3. Delete the Cloud Storage

    oc delete cloudstorage ${CLUSTER_NAME}-oadp

  4. Delete the AWS S3 Bucket

    aws s3 rm s3://${CLUSTER_NAME}-oadp --recursive
aws s3api delete-bucket --bucket ${CLUSTER_NAME}-oadp

  5. Detach the Policy from the role

    aws iam detach-role-policy --role-name "${ROLE_NAME}" \
  --policy-arn "${POLICY_ARN}"

  6. Delete the role

    aws iam delete-role --role-name "${ROLE_NAME}"
