openshift-netbox

NOTE: Multiple companies are using this in production, but the interfaces are
not stable yet. Take a look at changes and reconcile them with your production
setup before updating the base image or reapplying the k8s config!

OpenShift/okd.io1 deployment for Netbox.

Requires a cluster with persistent storage. Make sure that the oc client is
set up for the right project before you deploy.

Create application:

oc process -f openshift/netbox-base.yaml | oc create -f -
oc process -f openshift/netbox.yaml FQDN=netbox.example.com | oc create -f -

Tear down:

oc delete all,secret,pvc,configmap,serviceaccount -l app=netbox

Rebuild:

oc start-build netbox-base -F
oc start-build netbox -F

Rebuild base image from local repo:

oc start-build -F netbox-base --from-dir=.

Create superuser:

oc rsh dc/netbox netbox/manage.py createsuperuser

Import fixtures (if desired):

oc rsh dc/netbox netbox/manage.py loaddata initial_data

Give superuser permissions to a user:

oc rsh dc/netbox netbox/manage.py shell
>>> from django.contrib.auth.models import User
>>> u = User.objects.get(id=1)
>>> u.is_staff = True
>>> u.is_superuser = True
>>> u.save()

Database backup/restore:

oc rsh --no-tty dc/netbox-db bash -c 'pg_dump --username=$POSTGRESQL_USER --format=custom $POSTGRESQL_DATABASE' > dumpfile
oc rsh --no-tty dc/netbox-db bash -c 'pg_restore --username=$POSTGRESQL_USER --clean --dbname=$POSTGRESQL_DATABASE' < dumpfile

(Expect the error messages must be owner of extension plpgsql and must be owner of schema public from pg_restore. These can be ignored.)

Media backup/restore:

oc rsync $(oc get pods -l app=netbox -o name):/opt/app-root/media/ backup-directory/
oc rsync backup-directory/ $(oc get pods -l app=netbox -o name):/opt/app-root/media/
