OpenShift Data Foundation Operator

This is the primary operator for Red Hat OpenShift Data Foundation (ODF). It is a "meta" operator, meaning it serves to facilitate the other operators in ODF by providing dependencies and performing administrative tasks outside their scope.

Deploying pre-built images

Installation

The ODF operator can be installed into an OpenShift cluster using Operator Lifecycle Manager (OLM).

For quick install using pre-built container images.

make deploy-with-olm

This creates:

a custom CatalogSource
a new openshift-storage Namespace
an OperatorGroup
a Subscription to the ODF catalog in the openshift-storage namespace

You can check the status of the CSV using the following command:

oc get csv -n openshift-storage

This can take a few minutes. Once PHASE says Succeeded you can create a StorageSystem.

StorageSystem can be created from the console, using the StorageSystem creation wizard. From the CLI, a StorageSystem resource can be created using the example CR as follows,

oc create -f config/samples/ocs-storagecluster-storagesystem.yaml

Development

Build

ODF Operator

The operator image can be built via

make docker-build

ODF Operator Bundle

To create an operator bundle image with the bundle run

make bundle-build

ODF Operator Catalog

An operator catalog image can then be built using

make catalog-build

Deploying development builds

To install own development builds of ODF, first build and push the odf-operator image to your own image repository.

export REGISTRY_NAMESPACE=<quay-username>
export IMAGE_TAG=<some-tag>
make docker-build docker-push

Then build and push the operator bundle image.

export REGISTRY_NAMESPACE=<quay-username>
export IMAGE_TAG=<some-tag>
make bundle-build bundle-push

Next build and push the operator catalog image.

export REGISTRY_NAMESPACE=<quay-username>
export IMAGE_TAG=<some-tag>
make catalog-build catalog-push

Now create a ODF operator and follow the Installation

export REGISTRY_NAMESPACE=<quay-username>
export IMAGE_TAG=<some-tag>
make deploy-with-olm

Running Unit test

Unit tests can be run via

make test

To run a single test

go test -v github.com/red-hat-storage/odf-operator/controllers \
    -run TestIsVendorSystemPresent
