30 | 1 | Nico Schottelius | h2. General architecture and components overview |
31 | |||
32 | * All k8s clusters are IPv6 only |
||
33 | * We use BGP peering to propagate podcidr and serviceCidr networks to our infrastructure |
||
34 | * The main public testing repository is "ungleich-k8s":https://code.ungleich.ch/ungleich-public/ungleich-k8s |
||
35 | 18 | Nico Schottelius | ** Private configurations are found in the **k8s-config** repository |
36 | 1 | Nico Schottelius | |
37 | h3. Cluster types |
||
38 | |||
39 | 28 | Nico Schottelius | | **Type/Feature** | **Development** | **Production** | |
40 | | Min No. nodes | 3 (1 master, 3 worker) | 5 (3 master, 3 worker) | |
||
41 | | Recommended minimum | 4 (dedicated master, 3 worker) | 8 (3 master, 5 worker) | |
||
42 | | Separation of control plane | optional | recommended | |
||
43 | | Persistent storage | required | required | |
||
44 | | Number of storage monitors | 3 | 5 | |

||
51 | |||
52 | 117 | Nico Schottelius | h3. Allowing to schedule work on the control plane / removing node taints |
53 | 69 | Nico Schottelius | |
54 | * Mostly for single node / test / development clusters |
||
55 | * Just remove the master taint as follows |
||
56 | |||
57 | <pre> |
||
58 | kubectl taint nodes --all node-role.kubernetes.io/master- |
||
59 | 118 | Nico Schottelius | kubectl taint nodes --all node-role.kubernetes.io/control-plane- |
60 | 69 | Nico Schottelius | </pre> |
61 | 1 | Nico Schottelius | |
62 | 117 | Nico Schottelius | You can check the node taints using @kubectl describe node ...@ |
63 | 69 | Nico Schottelius | |
64 | 44 | Nico Schottelius | h3. Get the cluster admin.conf |
65 | |||
66 | * On the masters of each cluster you can find the file @/etc/kubernetes/admin.conf@ |
||
67 | * To be able to administrate the cluster you can copy the admin.conf to your local machine |
||
68 | * Multi cluster debugging can very easy if you name the config ~/cX-admin.conf (see example below) |
||
69 | |||
70 | <pre> |
||
71 | % scp root@server47.place7.ungleich.ch:/etc/kubernetes/admin.conf ~/c2-admin.conf |
||
72 | % export KUBECONFIG=~/c2-admin.conf |
||
73 | % kubectl get nodes |

86 | 8 | Nico Schottelius | |
87 | 9 | Nico Schottelius | * Decide on the cluster name (usually *cX.k8s.ooo*), X counting upwards |
88 | 28 | Nico Schottelius | ** Using pXX.k8s.ooo for production clusters of placeXX |
89 | 9 | Nico Schottelius | * Use cdist to configure the nodes with requirements like crio |
90 | * Decide between single or multi node control plane setups (see below) |
||
91 | 28 | Nico Schottelius | ** Single control plane suitable for development clusters |
92 | 9 | Nico Schottelius | |
93 | 28 | Nico Schottelius | Typical init procedure: |
94 | 9 | Nico Schottelius | |
95 | 28 | Nico Schottelius | * Single control plane: @kubeadm init --config bootstrap/XXX/kubeadm.yaml@ |
96 | * Multi control plane (HA): @kubeadm init --config bootstrap/XXX/kubeadm.yaml --upload-certs@ |

142 | 49 | Nico Schottelius | |
143 | * We need to have an up-to-date token |
||
144 | * We use different join commands for the workers and control plane nodes |
||
145 | |||
146 | Generating the join command on an existing control plane node: |
||
147 | |||
148 | <pre> |
||
149 | kubeadm token create --print-join-command |

152 | 50 | Nico Schottelius | h3. (Re-)joining control plane nodes after creating the cluster |
153 | 1 | Nico Schottelius | |
154 | 50 | Nico Schottelius | * We generate the token again |
155 | * We upload the certificates |
||
156 | * We need to combine/create the join command for the control plane node |
||
157 | |||
158 | Example session: |

192 | 53 | Nico Schottelius | h3. How to fix etcd does not start when rejoining a kubernetes cluster as a control plane |
193 | 52 | Nico Schottelius | |
194 | If during the above step etcd does not come up, @kubeadm join@ can hang as follows: |
||
195 | |||
196 | <pre> |
||
197 | [control-plane] Creating static Pod manifest for "kube-apiserver" |
||
198 | [control-plane] Creating static Pod manifest for "kube-controller-manager" |
||
199 | [control-plane] Creating static Pod manifest for "kube-scheduler" |
||
200 | [check-etcd] Checking that the etcd cluster is healthy |
||
201 | error execution phase check-etcd: etcd cluster is not healthy: failed to dial endpoint https://[2a0a:e5c0:10:1:225:b3ff:fe20:37 |
||
202 | 8a]:2379 with maintenance client: context deadline exceeded |
||
203 | To see the stack trace of this error execute with --v=5 or higher |
||
204 | </pre> |
||
205 | |||
206 | Then the problem is likely that the etcd server is still a member of the cluster. We first need to remove it from the etcd cluster and then the join works. |
||
207 | |||
208 | To fix this we do: |
||
209 | |||
210 | * Find a working etcd pod |
||
211 | * Find the etcd members / member list |
||
212 | * Remove the etcd member that we want to re-join the cluster |
||
213 | |||
214 | |||
215 | <pre> |
||
216 | # Find the etcd pods |
||
217 | kubectl -n kube-system get pods -l component=etcd,tier=control-plane |
||
218 | |||
219 | # Get the list of etcd servers with the member id |
||

||
221 | |||

292 | Many times users are having nologin as their shell inside the container. To be able to execute maintenance commands within the |

311 | h3. Calico Installation |
||
312 | |||
313 | * We install "calico using helm":https://docs.projectcalico.org/getting-started/kubernetes/helm |
||
314 | * This has the following advantages: |
||
315 | ** Easy to upgrade |
||
316 | ** Does not require os to configure IPv6/dual stack settings as the tigera operator figures out things on its own |
||
317 | |||
318 | Usually plain calico can be installed directly using: |
||
319 | |||
320 | <pre> |
||
321 | helm repo add projectcalico https://docs.projectcalico.org/charts |
||
322 | 120 | Nico Schottelius | helm upgrade --install --namespace tigera calico projectcalico/tigera-operator --version v3.23.2 --create-namespace |
323 | # helm install --namespace tigera calico projectcalico/tigera-operator --version v3.23.2 --create-namespace |

354 | 62 | Nico Schottelius | h3. Calico configuration |
355 | |||
356 | 63 | Nico Schottelius | By default our k8s clusters "BGP peer":https://docs.projectcalico.org/networking/bgp |
357 | with an upstream router to propagate podcidr and servicecidr. |
||
358 | 62 | Nico Schottelius | |
359 | Default settings in our infrastructure: |
||
360 | |||
361 | * We use a full-mesh using the @nodeToNodeMeshEnabled: true@ option |
||
362 | * We keep the original next hop so that *only* the server with the pod is announcing it (instead of ecmp) |
||
363 | 1 | Nico Schottelius | * We use private ASNs for k8s clusters |
364 | 63 | Nico Schottelius | * We do *not* use any overlay |
365 | 62 | Nico Schottelius | |
366 | After installing calico and calicoctl the last step of the installation is usually: |
||
367 | |||
368 | 1 | Nico Schottelius | <pre> |
369 | 79 | Nico Schottelius | calicoctl create -f - < calico-bgp.yaml |

496 | 80 | Nico Schottelius | h2. Helm related operations and conventions |
497 | 55 | Nico Schottelius | |
498 | 61 | Nico Schottelius | We use helm charts extensively. |
499 | |||
500 | * In production, they are managed via argocd |
||
501 | * In development, helm chart can de developed and deployed manually using the helm utility. |
||
502 | |||
503 | 55 | Nico Schottelius | h3. Installing a helm chart |
504 | |||
505 | One can use the usual pattern of |
||
506 | |||
507 | <pre> |
||
508 | helm install <releasename> <chartdirectory> |
||
509 | </pre> |
||
510 | |||
511 | However often you want to reinstall/update when testing helm charts. The following pattern is "better", because it allows you to reinstall, if it is already installed: |
||
512 | |||
513 | <pre> |
||
514 | helm upgrade --install <releasename> <chartdirectory> |
||
515 | 1 | Nico Schottelius | </pre> |
516 | 80 | Nico Schottelius | |
517 | h3. Naming services and deployments in helm charts [Application labels] |
||
518 | |||
519 | * We always have {{ .Release.Name }} to identify the current "instance" |
||
520 | * Deployments: |
||
521 | ** use @app: <what it is>@, f.i. @app: nginx@, @app: postgres@, ... |
||
522 | 81 | Nico Schottelius | * See more about standard labels on |
523 | ** https://kubernetes.io/docs/concepts/overview/working-with-objects/common-labels/ |
||

526 | 43 | Nico Schottelius | h2. Rook / Ceph Related Operations |
527 | |||
528 | 71 | Nico Schottelius | h3. Executing ceph commands |
529 | |||
530 | Using the ceph-tools pod as follows: |
||
531 | |||
532 | <pre> |
||
533 | kubectl exec -n rook-ceph -ti $(kubectl -n rook-ceph get pods -l app=rook-ceph-tools -o jsonpath='{.items[*].metadata.name}') -- ceph -s |
||
534 | </pre> |
||
535 | |||
536 | 43 | Nico Schottelius | h3. Inspecting the logs of a specific server |
537 | |||
538 | <pre> |
||
539 | # Get the related pods |
||
540 | kubectl -n rook-ceph get pods -l app=rook-ceph-osd-prepare |
||
541 | ... |
||
542 | |||
543 | # Inspect the logs of a specific pod |
||
544 | kubectl -n rook-ceph logs -f rook-ceph-osd-prepare-server23--1-444qx |
||
545 | |||
546 | 71 | Nico Schottelius | </pre> |
547 | |||
548 | h3. Inspecting the logs of the rook-ceph-operator |
||
549 | |||
550 | <pre> |
||
551 | kubectl -n rook-ceph logs -f -l app=rook-ceph-operator |
||
552 | 43 | Nico Schottelius | </pre> |
553 | |||
554 | 121 | Nico Schottelius | h3. Restarting the rook operator |
555 | |||
556 | <pre> |
||
557 | kubectl -n rook-ceph delete pods -l app=rook-ceph-operator |
||
558 | </pre> |
||
559 | |||
560 | 43 | Nico Schottelius | h3. Triggering server prepare / adding new osds |
561 | |||
562 | The rook-ceph-operator triggers/watches/creates pods to maintain hosts. To trigger a full "re scan", simply delete that pod: |
||
563 | |||
564 | <pre> |
||
565 | kubectl -n rook-ceph delete pods -l app=rook-ceph-operator |
||
566 | </pre> |
||
567 | |||
568 | This will cause all the @rook-ceph-osd-prepare-..@ jobs to be recreated and thus OSDs to be created, if new disks have been added. |
||
569 | |||
570 | h3. Removing an OSD |
||
571 | |||
572 | * See "Ceph OSD Management":https://rook.io/docs/rook/v1.7/ceph-osd-mgmt.html |
||
573 | 77 | Nico Schottelius | * More specifically: https://github.com/rook/rook/blob/release-1.7/cluster/examples/kubernetes/ceph/osd-purge.yaml |
574 | 99 | Nico Schottelius | * Then delete the related deployment |
575 | 41 | Nico Schottelius | |
576 | 98 | Nico Schottelius | Set osd id in the osd-purge.yaml and apply it. OSD should be down before. |
