Installing Tempo by using the CLI

Prerequisites

• An active OpenShift CLI (oc) session by a cluster administrator user. See Getting started with the OpenShift CLI.

  Tip	Ensure that your OpenShift CLI (oc) version is up to date and matches your {product-title} version.

  1. Install the Tempo Operator:

     1. Create a subscription.

        $ oc apply -f - << EOF
        apiVersion: operators.coreos.com/v1alpha1
        kind: Subscription
        metadata:
          name: tempo-product
          namespace: openshift-operators
        spec:
          channel: stable
          installPlanApproval: Automatic
          name: tempo-product
          source: redhat-operators
          sourceNamespace: openshift-marketplace
        EOF

     2. Check the Operator status.

        oc get csv -n openshift-operators

  2. Run oc apply -f to create a Secret for your object storage bucket.

     Tip	$ oc apply -f <secret_file>.yaml $ oc apply -f - << EOF <object_storage_secret> EOF

     Example 1. Secret for Amazon S3 and MinIO storage

     apiVersion: v1
     kind: Secret
     metadata:
       name: minio-test
     stringData:
       endpoint: http://minio.minio.svc:9000
       bucket: tempo
       access_key_id: tempo
       access_key_secret: supersecret
     type: Opaque

     Table 1. Required Secret parameters

     Storage provider	Secret parameters
     Red Hat OpenShift Data Foundation	name: tempostack-dev-odf # example bucket: <bucket_name> # requires an ObjectBucketClaim endpoint: https://s3.openshift-storage.svc access_key_id: <data_foundation_access_key_id> access_key_secret: <data_foundation_access_key_secret>
     MinIO	See MinIO Operator. name: tempostack-dev-minio # example bucket: <minio_bucket_name> # MinIO documentation endpoint: <minio_bucket_endpoint> access_key_id: <minio_access_key_id> access_key_secret: <minio_access_key_secret>
     Amazon S3	name: tempostack-dev-s3 # example bucket: <s3_bucket_name> # Amazon S3 documentation endpoint: <s3_bucket_endpoint> access_key_id: <s3_access_key_id> access_key_secret: <s3_access_key_secret>
     Microsoft Azure Blob Storage	name: tempostack-dev-azure # example container: <azure_blob_storage_container_name> # Microsoft Azure documentation account_name: <azure_blob_storage_account_name> account_key: <azure_blob_storage_account_key>
     Google Cloud Storage on Google Cloud Platform (GCP)	name: tempostack-dev-gcs # example bucketname: <google_cloud_storage_bucket_name> # requires a bucket created in a GCP project key.json: <path/to/key.json> # requires a service account in the bucket’s GCP project for GCP authentication

  3. Use oc create namespace or oc apply to create a namespace for the TempoStack instance that you will create in the next step.

     Tip	oc create namespace <namespace_value_of_your_choice> $ oc apply -f - << EOF apiVersion: project.openshift.io/v1 kind: Project metadata: labels: kubernetes.io/metadata.name: <namespace_value_of_your_choice> openshift.io/cluster-monitoring: "true" name: <namespace_value_of_your_choice> EOF

  4. Create a TempoStack instance in the namespace that you created for the TempoStack instance in the previous step.

     Note	You can create multiple TempoStack instances in separate namespaces on the same cluster.

     1. Customize the TempoStack custom resource (CR):

        apiVersion: tempo.grafana.com/v1alpha1
        kind: TempoStack
        metadata:
          name: sample
          namespace: <namespace_from_previous_step>
        spec:
          storageSize: 1Gi
          storage:
              secret:
                  name: <secret-name> (1)
                  type: <secret-provider> (2)
          template:
            queryFrontend:
              jaegerQuery:
                enabled: true
                ingress:
                  route:
                    termination: edge
                  type: route

        1. The value of name in the metadata of the Secret.

        2. The accepted values are azure for Azure Blob Storage, gcs for Google Cloud Storage, and s3 for Amazon S3 or MinIO or Red Hat OpenShift Data Foundation.

           Example 2. TempoStack CR for AWS S3 and MinIO storage

           apiVersion: tempo.grafana.com/v1alpha1
           kind: TempoStack
           metadata:
             name: simplest
             namespace: tempostacknamespace
           spec:
             storage:
               secret:
                 name: minio-test
                 type: s3
             storageSize: 1Gi
             resources:
               total:
                 limits:
                   memory: 2Gi
                   cpu: 2000m
             template:
               queryFrontend:
                 jaegerQuery:
                   enabled: true
                   ingress:
                     route:
                       termination: edge
                     type: route

           The stack deployed in this example is configured to receive Jaeger Thrift over HTTP and OpenTelemetry Protocol (OTLP), which permits visualizing the data with the Jaeger UI.

     2. Apply the customized CR.

        $ oc apply -f - << EOF
        <TempoStack_custom_resource>
        EOF

WIP

1. command(s) to confirm successful installation of the Operator

2. command(s) to confirm successful deployment of a TempoStack instance

3. if applicable, a command to open any UI console

4. any other commands?

WIP:

1. Verify that pods are created on the namespace.

2. Wait until the stack stabilizes.
