Automatically scaling resources for services

Some IBM® Software Hub services support autoscaling by using the Red Hat® OpenShift® Horizontal Pod Autoscaler (HPA). The HPA changes the resource allocation of services by increasing or decreasing the number of pods in response to CPU or memory consumption.

Permissions that you need for this task
You must be either:
  • A cluster administrator
  • An instance administrator
When you need to complete this task
When you want to dynamically scale resources for services based on usage.

Instead of using the manual, fixed approach to scaling resources for services, you can enable autoscaling to dynamically scale resources up and down based on the user workloads. Autoscaling helps ensure that clusters are not underutilized while workloads that require more resources cannot use the available resources.

For most services, you can use cpd-cli manage apply-hpa-config command to enable autoscaling. Some services support autoscaling, but you need to enable it through a different method.

The following table shows the services that support autoscaling and whether you use the cpd-cli command to enable it. You can see instructions for enabling autoscaling for each service in the procedure for automatically scaling resources for services.

Before you begin

Best practice: You can run the commands in this task exactly as written if you set up environment variables. For instructions, see Setting up installation environment variables.

Ensure that you source the environment variables before you run the commands in this task.

For the cpd-cli command, you can set autoscaling for the services individually, or you can set autoscaling for several services by using the --components option. Specify a comma-separated list of component names to set all the components at the same time, for example:

--components=zen,dp,ws \
--enable_hpa=true
If you want to scale a service that does not use the default custom resource name, you must use the --param-file option to override the custom resource name.
  1. Create a .yml file that has the following content:
    override_components_meta:
        component-name:
            cr_name: your-cr-name
  2. Add --param-file=/tmp/work/filename.yml to the cpd-cli command.

You can also set the --wait option to false to save time. When --wait=false the custom resource is patched, but the cpd-cli returns you to a command prompt without waiting for the cpd-cli to get to a Completed state.

Procedure

  1. Log the cpd-cli in to the Red Hat OpenShift Container Platform cluster:
    ${CPDM_OC_LOGIN}
  2. If you want to check whether the HPA is currently enabled for a service, use the manage get-hpa-config command.
    For example, to check whether the HPA is currently enabled for the common core services, use this command:
    cpd-cli manage get-hpa-config \
    --cpd_instance_ns=${PROJECT_CPD_INST_OPERANDS} \
    --components=ccs
  3. Enable or disable autoscaling for services as needed:

      1. Run the following command to enable horizontal autoscaling in the addon components UI, API, and Nodeclient:

        cpd-cli manage apply-hpa-config \
        --components=watsonx_data \
        --cpd_instance_ns=${PROJECT_CPD_INST_OPERANDS} \
        --enable_hpa=true
      2. Complete the following steps for both wxd and wxdengine to enable horizontal pod autoscaling of Presto workers:
        1. Run the following command to get the Presto engine name:
          oc get wxdengine

          The following example shows a returned engine name for wxdengine:

          NAME                  AGE
          lakehouse-presto-01   75m
        2. Run the following command to enable horizontal pod autoscaling in the pods. Horizontal pod autoscaling only works with multinode deployments because the command scales worker nodes.
          oc patch wxdengine/lakehouse-presto-01 \
            --type=merge \
             -n ${PROJECT_CPD_INST_OPERANDS} \
             -p '{ "spec": { "autoScaleConfig": "true", "lakehouseDeploymentType": "multinode" } }'
      1. Run the following command to disable horizontal autoscaling in the addon components UI, API, and Nodeclient:

        cpd-cli manage apply-hpa-config \
        --components=watsonx_data \
        --cpd_instance_ns=${PROJECT_CPD_INST_OPERANDS} \
        --enable_hpa=false
      2. Run the following command to disable horizontal pod autoscaling in the pods:
        oc patch wxdengine/lakehouse-presto-01 \
        --type=merge \
         -n ${PROJECT_CPD_INST_OPERANDS} \
         -p '{ "spec": { "autoScaleConfig": false } }'
