Container Scenarios

This scenario disrupts the containers matching the label in the specified namespace on a Kubernetes/OpenShift cluster.

Run

If enabling Cerberus to monitor the cluster and pass/fail the scenario post chaos, refer docs. Make sure to start it before injecting the chaos and set CERBERUS_ENABLED environment variable for the chaos injection container to autoconnect.

$ podman run --name=<container_name> --net=host --env-host=true -v <path-to-kube-config>:/home/krkn/.kube/config:Z -d quay.io/krkn-chaos/krkn-hub:container-scenarios
$ podman logs -f <container_name or container_id> # Streams Kraken logs
$ podman inspect <container-name or container-id> --format "{{.State.ExitCode}}" # Outputs exit code which can considered as pass/fail for the scenario
$ docker run $(./get_docker_params.sh) --name=<container_name> --net=host -v <path-to-kube-config>:/home/krkn/.kube/config:Z -d quay.io/krkn-chaos/krkn-hub:container-scenarios
OR 
$ docker run -e <VARIABLE>=<value> --net=host -v <path-to-kube-config>:/home/krkn/.kube/config:Z -d quay.io/krkn-chaos/krkn-hub:container-scenarios

$ docker logs -f <container_name or container_id> # Streams Kraken logs
$ docker inspect <container-name or container-id> --format "{{.State.ExitCode}}" # Outputs exit code which can considered as pass/fail for the scenario

TIP: Because the container runs with a non-root user, ensure the kube config is globally readable before mounting it in the container. You can achieve this with the following commands: kubectl config view --flatten > ~/kubeconfig && chmod 444 ~/kubeconfig && docker run $(./get_docker_params.sh) --name=<container_name> --net=host -v ~kubeconfig:/home/krkn/.kube/config:Z -d quay.io/krkn-chaos/krkn-hub:<scenario>

Supported parameters

The following environment variables can be set on the host running the container to tweak the scenario/faults being injected:

See list of variables that apply to all scenarios here that can be used/set in addition to these scenario specific variables

ex.) export <parameter_name>=<value>

Parameter Description Default
NAMESPACE Targeted namespace in the cluster openshift-etcd
LABEL_SELECTOR Label of the container(s) to target k8s-app=etcd
DISRUPTION_COUNT Number of container to disrupt 1
CONTAINER_NAME Name of the container to disrupt etcd
ACTION kill signal to run. For example 1 ( hang up ) or 9 1
EXPECTED_RECOVERY_TIME Time to wait before checking if all containers that were affected recover properly 60

NOTE In case of using custom metrics profile or alerts profile when CAPTURE_METRICS or ENABLE_ALERTS is enabled, mount the metrics profile from the host on which the container is run using podman/docker under /home/krkn/kraken/config/metrics-aggregated.yaml and /home/krkn/kraken/config/alerts. For example:

$ podman run --name=<container_name> --net=host --env-host=true -v <path-to-custom-metrics-profile>:/home/krkn/kraken/config/metrics-aggregated.yaml -v <path-to-custom-alerts-profile>:/home/krkn/kraken/config/alerts -v <path-to-kube-config>:/home/krkn/.kube/config:Z -d quay.io/krkn-chaos/krkn-hub:container-scenarios
