roman-popenov 56e0d05e25 [Issue-5994]: Start proxy pods when at least one broker pod is running (#6158)
### Motivation
Fixes #5994:
If the proxy service comes up before the brokers are up and reachable there will be HTTP 403 when running `bin/pulsar-admin` commands from inside the proxy pod.
 
The proxy will also not be able to connect to the brokers when data is pushed through binary port with the following error:
```bash
Caused by: org.apache.pulsar.broker.service.BrokerServiceException$PersistenceException: org.apache.bookkeeper.mledger.ManagedLedgerException: Not enough non-faulty bookies available
	... 14 more
Caused by: org.apache.bookkeeper.mledger.ManagedLedgerException: Not enough non-faulty bookies available
22:11:07.633 [pulsar-web-32-6] INFO  org.eclipse.jetty.server.RequestLog - 172.17.0.6 - - [24/Jan/2020:22:11:07 +0000] "PUT /admin/v2/persistent/public/functions/assignments HTTP/1.1" 500 2528 "-" "Pulsar-Java-v2.5.0" 280
```

#### Workaround:
Restart the proxy pods once brokers pods are running

#### Proposed solution:
Hold off starting of the proxies until at least one broker is reachable in the cluster. 

### Modifications

Changes are inside `proxy-deployment.yaml` helm template file that defines a new init container before proxy is started. The init container waits until broker is reachable using the nslookup on the broker service with a sleep of 30 seconds between retries and up to number of brokers times.

Alternative solution that doesn't always work was `'until nslookup broker-service; sleep 2; done;', but 403 would still sometimes (could have been a fluke, but I saw it happening once).

### Verifying this change
1) Follow the instructions on how deploying helm and run:
`helm install pulsar --values pulsar/values-mini.yaml ./pulsar/`. 
2) Wait until all the services are up and running.  
3) Connect to proxy pod and run `bin/pulsar-admin broker-stats monitoring-metrics` - no 403 or permission errors should arise
4) Set up tenant, namespace
5) Push data into a topic - No errors in the proxy logs and client is able to push data into cluster through proxies

This directory contains the Helm Chart required to do a complete Pulsar deployment on Kubernetes.

Install Helm

Before you start, you need to install helm. Following helm documentation to install it.

Deploy Pulsar

Minikube

Install Minikube

Install and configure minikube with a VM driver, e.g. kvm2 on Linux or hyperkit or VirtualBox on macOS.

Create a K8S cluster on Minikube

minikube start --memory=8192 --cpus=4

Set kubectl to use Minikube.

kubectl config use-context minikube

After you created a K8S cluster on Minikube, you can access its dashboard via following command:

minikube dashboard

The command will automatically trigger open a webpage in your browser.

Install Pulsar Chart

Assume you already cloned pulsar repo in PULSAR_HOME directory.

  1. Go to Pulsar helm chart directory
    cd ${PULSAR_HOME}/deployment/kubernetes/helm
    
  2. Install helm chart.
    helm install --values pulsar/values-mini.yaml ./pulsar
    

Once the helm chart is completed on installation, you can access the cluster via:

  • Web service url: http://$(minikube ip):30001/
  • Pulsar service url: pulsar://$(minikube ip):30002/
