Chapter 8. Reference

8.1. Custom Resource configuration reference

A Custom Resource Definition (CRD) is a schema of configuration items for a custom OpenShift object deployed with an Operator. By deploying a corresponding Custom Resource (CR) instance, you specify values for configuration items shown in the CRD.

The following sub-sections detail the configuration items that you can set in Custom Resource instances based on the main broker CRD.

8.1.1. Broker Custom Resource configuration reference

A CR instance based on the main broker CRD enables you to configure brokers for deployment in an OpenShift project. The following table describes the items that you can configure in the CR instance.

Important

Configuration items marked with an asterisk (*) are required in any corresponding Custom Resource (CR) that you deploy. If you do not explicitly specify a value for a non-required item, the configuration uses the default value.

EntrySub-entryDescription and usage

adminUser*

 

Administrator user name required for connecting to the broker and management console.

If you do not specify a value, the value is automatically generated and stored in a secret. The default secret name has a format of <custom_resource_name>-credentials-secret. For example, my-broker-deployment-credentials-secret.

Type: string

Example: my-user

Default value: Automatically-generated, random value

adminPassword*

 

Administrator password required for connecting to the broker and management console.

If you do not specify a value, the value is automatically generated and stored in a secret. The default secret name has a format of <custom_resource_name>-credentials-secret. For example, my-broker-deployment-credentials-secret.

Type: string

Example: my-password

Default value: Automatically-generated, random value

deploymentPlan*

 

Broker deployment configuration

 

image*

Full path of the broker container image used for each broker in the deployment.

You do not need to explicitly specify a value for image in your CR. The default value of placeholder indicates that the Operator has not yet determined the appropriate image to use.

To learn how the Operator chooses a broker container image to use, see Section 2.4, “How the Operator chooses container images”.

Type: string

Example: registry.redhat.io/amq7/amq-broker-rhel8@sha256:a8b2a9364fd06c8e1c29b8f8f28d3e4844bf7840a62b67137b663c558982d4a3

Default value: placeholder

 

size*

Number of broker Pods to create in the deployment.

If you specify a value of 2 or greater, your broker deployment is clustered by default. The cluster user name and password are automatically generated and stored in the same secret as adminUser and adminPassword, by default.

Type: int

Example: 1

Default value: 2

 

requireLogin

Specify whether login credentials are required to connect to the broker.

Type: Boolean

Example: false

Default value: true

 

persistenceEnabled

Specify whether to use journal storage for each broker Pod in the deployment. If set to true, each broker Pod requires an available Persistent Volume (PV) that the Operator can claim using a Persistent Volume Claim (PVC).

Type: Boolean

Example: false

Default value: true

 

initImage

Init Container image used to configure the broker.

You do not need to explicitly specify a value for initImage in your CR, unless you want to provide a custom image.

To learn how the Operator chooses a built-in Init Container image to use, see Section 2.4, “How the Operator chooses container images”.

To learn how to specify a custom Init Container image, see Section 4.7, “Specifying a custom Init Container image”.

Type: string

Example: registry.redhat.io/amq7/amq-broker-init-rhel8@sha256:35b7d96d5065f280a528626abd2c3df84e79ccea93ab6bd8b8837af66c330f30

Type: Boolean

Example: true

Default value: false

 

managementRBACEnabled

If you do not specify a custom secret name for sslSecret, the acceptor assumes a default secret name. The default secret name has a format of <custom_resource_name>-<acceptor_name>-secret.

You must always create this secret yourself, even when the acceptor assumes a default name.

Example: my-broker-deployment-my-acceptor-secret

Default value: <custom_resource_name>-<acceptor_name>-secret

 

enabledCipherSuites

Comma-separated list of cipher suites to use for TLS/SSL communication.

Specify the most secure cipher suite(s) supported by your client application. If you use a comma-separated list to specify a set of cipher suites that is common to both the broker and the client, or you do not specify any cipher suites, the broker and client mutually negotiate a cipher suite to use. If you do not know which cipher suites to specify, it is recommended that you first establish a broker-client connection with your client running in debug mode, to verify the cipher suites that are common to both the broker and the client. Then, configure enabledCipherSuites on the broker.

Type: string

Default value: Not specified

 

keyStoreProvider

The name of the provider of the keystore that the broker uses.

Type: string

Example: SunJCE

Default value: Not specified

Type: Boolean

Example: true

Default value: Not specified

Example: true

Default value: Not specified

 

sslProvider

Specify whether the SSL provider is JDK or OPENSSL.

Type: string

Example: OPENSSL

Default value: JDK

When you expose an acceptor to clients outside OpenShift, the Operator automatically creates a dedicated Service and Route for each broker Pod in the deployment.

Default value: 0 (unlimited connections)

 

amqpMinLargeMessageSize

Minimum message size, in bytes, required for the broker to handle an AMQP message as a large message. If the size of an AMQP message is equal or greater to this value, the broker stores the message in a large messages directory (/opt/<custom_resource_name>/data/large-messages, by default) on the persistent volume (PV) used by the broker for message storage. Setting the value to -1 disables large message handling for AMQP messages.

Type: integer

Example: 204800

Default value: 102400 (100 KB)

 

BindToAllInterfaces

If set to true, configures the broker acceptors with a 0.0.0.0 IP address instead of the internal IP address of the pod. When the broker acceptors have a 0.0.0.0 IP address, they bind to all interfaces configured for the pod and clients can direct traffic to the broker by using OpenShift Container Platform port-forwarding. Normally, you use this configuration to debug a service. For more information about port-forwarding, see Using port-forwarding to access applications in a container in the OpenShift Container Platform documentation.

Note

If port-forwarding is used incorrectly, it can create a security risk for your environment. Where possible, Red Hat recommends that you do not use port-forwarding in a production environment.

Type: Boolean

Example: true

Default value: false

Setting the globalMaxSize property overrides the default amount of memory assigned to the broker. By default, a broker is assigned half of the maximum memory available to the broker’s Java Virtual Machine.

The default unit for the globalMaxSize property is bytes. To change the default unit, add a suffix of m (for MB) or g (for GB) to the value.

Type: string

Example: globalMaxSize=512m

Default value: Not applicable

upgrades

  
 

enabled

Example: true

Default value: false

Type: string

Example: 7.7.0

Default value: Current version of AMQ Broker

8.1.2. Address Custom Resource configuration reference

Note that for integration of the image with Red Hat JBoss Enterprise Application Platform, the OpenWire protocol must be specified, while other protocols can be optionally specified as well.

AMQ_QUEUES

Specifies the queues available by default on the broker on its startup, in a comma-separated list.

AMQ_REQUIRE_LOGIN
