The satellite does not support the device provider LVM_THIN

Thank you. I used the nodes as you described. kubernetes is 1.18.6.

Update:
It is working now. Did not add "--communication-type SSL" that was the issue.

Thank you very much for all your support!

Yes, we're using lvmthin for our nodes, do you have node ONLINE?

[tobg]

You mean the pods?

[kvaps]

No, check the output of linstor node list command, I guess your node is Offline for some reason

[tobg]

Your right: OFFLINE(VERSION MISMATCH)
Could it be the kernel module drdb version on worker node?

[tobg]

I use the following versions:

drbd-dkms is already the newest version (9.0.24-1ppa1bionic1)
drbd-utils is already the newest version (9.13.1-1ppa1bionic1)

[kvaps]

This is happening with different versions of linstor-controller and linstor-satelite, what chart did you used in the end?

[tobg]

This one:

download example values

curl -LO https://github.com/kvaps/kube-linstor/raw/master/examples/linstor.yaml

install release

helm install linstor kvaps/linstor --version 1.7.2
--namespace linstor
-f linstor.yaml

[tobg]

It's not clear to me if I have to use the pods named satalite or the nodes on which kubernetes is running

linstor node create node1 10.0.0.1

[kvaps]

Weird indeed 🤔

chart uses correct images:

helm template linstor kvaps/linstor --version 1.7.2 | grep image: | grep 'kvaps/linstor'

there is correct versions inside the image:

# docker run -ti --rm docker.io/kvaps/linstor-controller:v1.7.2-3
LINSTOR, Module Controller
Version:            1.7.2.1-7500524b9 (7500524b9d7ff6ca697efe357c4031186642a9dc)

could you show me the output of:

kubectl get -n linstor sts/linstor-linstor-controller ds/linstor-linstor-satellite

and

kubectl get -n linstor sts/linstor-linstor-controller ds/linstor-linstor-satellite -o yaml | grep image:

please?

You should name nodes the same way like they are named in kubernetes eg:

kubectl get node -o wide
NAME   STATUS   ROLES     AGE    VERSION   INTERNAL-IP     EXTERNAL-IP   OS-IMAGE             KERNEL-VERSION   CONTAINER-RUNTIME
m9c4   Ready    hosting   660d   v1.17.1   10.36.129.139   <none>        Ubuntu 18.04.3 LTS   4.15.18-24-pve   docker://19.3.5

you should use:

linstor node create m9c4 10.36.129.139 --communication-type SSL
