Zero-Downtime Database Upgrades

A zero-downtime database upgrade enables true rolling upgrades of the Glance
|
|

nodes in your cloud's control plane. At the appropriate point in the upgrade,
|
|
||||||
you can have a mixed deployment of release *n* (for example, Ocata) and release
|
|
||||||
*n-1* (for example, Newton) Glance nodes, take the *n-1* release nodes out of
|
|
||||||
rotation, allow them to drain, and then take them out of service permanently,
|
|
||||||
leaving all Glance nodes in your cloud at release *n*.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
That's a rough sketch of how a rolling upgrade would work. For full details,

|

|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
The Expand-Migrate-Contract Cycle
|
|
||||||
---------------------------------
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
For Glance, a zero-downtime database upgrade has three phases:
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
1. **Expand**: in this phase, new columns, tables, indexes, or triggers are
|
|
||||||
added to the database.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
2. **Migrate**: in this phase, data is migrated to the new columns or tables.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
3. **Contract**: in this phase, the "old" tables or columns (and any database
|
|
||||||
triggers used during the migration), which are no longer in use, are removed
|
|
||||||
from the database.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
The above phases are abbreviated as an **E-M-C** database upgrade.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
New Database Version Identifiers
|
|
||||||
--------------------------------
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
In order to perform zero-downtime upgrades, the version identifier of a
|
|
||||||
database becomes more complicated since it must reflect knowledge of what point
|
|
||||||
in the E-M-C cycle the upgrade has reached. To make this evident, the
|
|
||||||
identifier explicitly contains 'expand' or 'contract' as part of its name.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Thus the ``ocata01`` migration (that is, the migration that's currently used in
|
|
||||||
the fully supported upgrade path) has two identifiers associated with it for
|
|
||||||
zero-downtime upgrades: ``ocata_expand01`` and ``ocata_contract01``.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
During the upgrade process, the database is initially marked with
|
|
||||||
``ocata_expand01``. Eventually, after completing the full upgrade process, the
|
|
||||||
database will be marked with ``ocata_contract01``. So, instead of one database
|
|
||||||
version, an operator will see a composite database version that will have both
|
|
||||||
expand and contract versions. A database will be considered at Ocata version
|
|
||||||
only when both expand and contract revisions are at the latest revisions. For
|
|
||||||
a successful Ocata zero-downtime upgrade, for example, the database will be
|
|
||||||
marked with both ``ocata_expand01``, ``ocata_contract01``.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
In the case in which there are multiple changes in a cycle, the database
|
|
||||||
version record would go through the following progression:
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
+-------+--------------------------------------+-------------------------+
|
|
||||||
| stage | database identifier | comment |

|

Database Upgrade
|
|
||||||
----------------
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
In order to enable the E-M-C database upgrade cycle, and to enable Glance
|
|
||||||
rolling upgrades, the ``glance-manage`` tool has been augmented to include the
|
|
||||||
following operations.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Expanding the Database
|
|
||||||
----------------------
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
glance-manage db expand
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
This will run the expansion phase of a rolling upgrade process. Database
|
|
||||||
expansion should be run as the first step in the rolling upgrade process before
|
|
||||||
any new services are started.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Migrating the Data
|
|
||||||
------------------
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
glance-manage db migrate
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
This will run the data migrate phase of a rolling upgrade process. Database
|
|
||||||
migration should be run after database expansion but before any new services
|
|
||||||
are started.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Contracting the Database
|
|
||||||
------------------------
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
glance-manage db contract
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
This will run the contraction phase of a rolling upgrade process.
|
|
||||||
Database contraction should be run as the last step of the rolling upgrade
|
|
||||||
process after all old services are upgraded to new ones.
