etcd-defrag

etcd-defrag

A Helm chart for running a defragmentation CronJob for ETCD

TL;DR;

helm repo add christianknell https://christianknell.github.io/helm-charts
helm repo update
helm install my-release christianknell/etcd-defrag

Introduction

The process of defragmentation releases storage space blocked by ETCD fragmentation back to the file system.

Note that defragmentation to a live member blocks the system from reading and writing data while rebuilding its states.

This chart bootstraps a CronJob to perform periodically defragmentation for ETCD on a Kubernetes cluster using the Helm package manager.

Prerequisites

• Kubernetes 1.19+

Installing the Chart

To install the chart with the release name my-release:

helm repo add christianknell https://christianknell.github.io/helm-charts
helm repo update
helm install my-release christianknell/etcd-defrag

These commands deploy the CronJob on the Kubernetes cluster in the default configuration. The Values section lists the values that can be configured during installation.

Tip: List all releases using helm list

Uninstalling the Chart

To uninstall the my-release deployment:

helm uninstall my-release

The command removes all the Kubernetes components associated with the chart and deletes the release.

Specify each parameter using the --set key=value[,key=value] argument to helm install.
