Information

Install

  • This current information sheet is in reference to Longhorn 1.3v , be aware that 1.4v will be in production around 2023. Thus this might become obsolete information.

  • Before installing, look over the requirements for storage.

  • Requirements for 1.3v Longhorn


NFS

  • Ubuntu NFS Setup

    • Make sure system is updated / upgrade

      • Terminal window
        sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade -y
    • Install nfs-common and nfs-kernel-server

      • Terminal window
        sudo apt-get install nfs-common nfs-kernel-server -y

Namespace

  • Creating a custom namespace to hold the storage.

    Kubectl command to create the namespace:

    • Terminal window
      kubectl create namespace storage
    • std out: namespace/storage created

  • This namespace will be where we store our production data.


Longhorn Uno

Under storage class, we will be creating the longhorn uno and then deploying it under that.
