Summary

Following on from my previous post setting up an OpenShift cluster in Vagrant, this post discusses migrating an etcd cluster within a live OpenShift instance to newer servers.

Moving a standalone etcd cluster is relatively straightforward, but when it’s part of an OpenShift cluster — and especially one that’s live and operational — it is a little more involved.

The ordering of actions is important and there are several aspects to consider when planning such a move:

  • Config management preparation
  • Stopping the cluster
  • Creation and distribution of certificates
  • Data migration
  • Update of OpenShift config
  • Update of config management

Here we are using Ansible to provision and maintain the environment.

You can also use Chef to manage your OpenShift cluster.
