Generate Portworx spec using curl in ROSA

Generating the Portworx spec using curl

Below is an example of using curl to generate the Portworx spec file. Review the query parameters table below and add parameters as needed.

note

Make sure you use osft=true when generating the spec.

First, let's pick the Portworx release you want.

REL=""          # DEFAULT portworx release
#REL="/2.0"     # 2.0 portworx release
#REL="/1.7"     # 1.7 portworx release
#REL="/1.6"     # 1.6 portworx release
#REL="/1.5"     # 1.5 portworx release

Now generate the spec:

curl -fsL  "https://install.portworx.com/$REL/?c=mycluster&k=etcd://<ETCD_ADDRESS>:<ETCD_PORT>&kbver=$(oc version --short | awk -Fv '/Server Version: /{print $3}')"

Below are all parameters that can be given in the query string.

Value	Description	Example
	REQUIRED PARAMETERS
c	Specifies the unique name for the Portworx cluster.	c=test_cluster
k	Your key value database, such as an etcd cluster or a consul cluster.	k=etcd:http://etcd.fake.net:2379
osft	To install Openshift	osft =true
	OPTIONAL PARAMETERS
s	Specify comma-separated list of drives.	s=/dev/sdb,/dev/sdc
d	Specify data network interface. This is useful if your instances have non-standard network interfaces.	d=eth1
m	Specify management network interface. This is useful if your instances have non-standard network interfaces.	m=eth1
kbver	Specify Kubernetes version	kbver=1.8.4
stork	Specify if you want to install Stork	stork=true
coreos	REQUIRED if target nodes are running coreos.	coreos=true
mas	Specify if Portworx should run on the Kubernetes control plane node.	mas=true
z	Instructs Portworx to run in zero storage mode on Kubernetes control plane.	z=true
f	Instructs Portworx to use any available, unused and unmounted drives or partitions. Portworx will never use a drive or partition that is mounted.	f=true
st	Select the secrets type (aws, kvdb or vault)	st=vault
j	(Portworx 1.3 and higher) Specify a separate block device as a journaling device for Portworx metadata.	j=/dev/sde
	KVDB CONFIGURATION PARAMETERS
pwd	Username and password for ETCD authentication in the form user:password	pwd=username:password
ca	Location of CA file for ETCD authentication.	ca=/path/to/server.ca
cert	Location of certificate for ETCD authentication.	cert=/path/to/server.crt
key	Location of certificate key for ETCD authentication.	key=/path/to/server.key
e	Comma-separated list of environment variables that will be exported to Portworx. To view a list of all Portworx environment variables, go to passing environment variables.	e=MYENV1=myvalue1,MYENV2=myvalue2

note

If using secure etcd provide "https" in the URL and make sure all the certificates are in the /etc/pwx/ directory on each host which is bind mounted inside Portworx container.
