Bootstrapping the Kubernetes Worker Nodes

In this chapter, you will bootstrap three Kubernetes worker nodes. The following components will be installed on each node: runc, gVisor, container networking plugins, containerd, kubelet, and kube-proxy.

Provisioning a Kubernetes Worker Node

Download and Distribute Worker Binaries

In client-1, Download and distribute the official Kubernetes required binaries:

Note: kubectl is already downloaded at the last chapter.

done

Running commands in parallel with tmux

After this section, the commands must be run on each worker node: worker-1, worker-2, and worker-3. Login to each worker node:

$ ssh -i ~/.ssh/id_rsa-k8s 10.240.0.21

tmux can be used to run commands on multiple virtual machines at the same time. See the Running commands in parallel with tmux section in the Prerequisites lab.

Installing Dependencies

Install the OS dependencies:

$ {
  sudo apt-get update
  sudo apt-get -y install socat conntrack ipset
}

The socat binary enables support for the kubectl port-forward command.

Install Worker Binaries

Create the installation directories:

$ sudo mkdir -p \
  /etc/cni/net.d \
  /opt/cni/bin \
  /var/lib/kubelet \
  /var/lib/kube-proxy \
  /var/lib/kubernetes \
  /var/run/kubernetes

Install the worker binaries:

$ {
  sudo mv runsc-50c283b9f56bb7200938d9e207355f05f79f0d17 runsc
  sudo mv runc.amd64 runc
  chmod +x kubectl kube-proxy kubelet runc runsc
  sudo mv kubectl kube-proxy kubelet runc runsc /usr/local/bin/
  sudo tar -xvf crictl-v1.12.0-linux-amd64.tar.gz -C /usr/local/bin/
  sudo tar -xvf cni-plugins-amd64-v0.6.0.tgz -C /opt/cni/bin/
  sudo tar -xvf containerd-1.2.0-rc.0.linux-amd64.tar.gz -C /
}

Configure CNI Networking

Get the Pod CIDR range for the current compute instance:

$ POD_CIDR=10.200.$(uname -n | awk -F"-" '{print $2}').0/24

Create the bridge network configuration file:

$ cat <<EOF | sudo tee /etc/cni/net.d/10-bridge.conf
{
    "cniVersion": "0.3.1",
    "name": "bridge",
    "type": "bridge",
    "bridge": "cnio0",
    "isGateway": true,
    "ipMasq": true,
    "ipam": {
        "type": "host-local",
        "ranges": [
          [{"subnet": "${POD_CIDR}"}]
        ],
        "routes": [{"dst": "0.0.0.0/0"}]
    }
}
EOF

Create the loopback network configuration file:

$ cat <<EOF | sudo tee /etc/cni/net.d/99-loopback.conf
{
    "cniVersion": "0.3.1",
    "type": "loopback"
}
EOF

Configure containerd

Create the containerd configuration file:

$ sudo mkdir -p /etc/containerd/

$ cat << EOF | sudo tee /etc/containerd/config.toml
[plugins]
  [plugins.cri.containerd]
    snapshotter = "overlayfs"
    [plugins.cri.containerd.default_runtime]
      runtime_type = "io.containerd.runtime.v1.linux"
      runtime_engine = "/usr/local/bin/runc"
      runtime_root = ""
    [plugins.cri.containerd.untrusted_workload_runtime]
      runtime_type = "io.containerd.runtime.v1.linux"
      runtime_engine = "/usr/local/bin/runsc"
      runtime_root = "/run/containerd/runsc"
    [plugins.cri.containerd.gvisor]
      runtime_type = "io.containerd.runtime.v1.linux"
      runtime_engine = "/usr/local/bin/runsc"
      runtime_root = "/run/containerd/runsc"
EOF

Untrusted workloads will be run using the gVisor (runsc) runtime.

Create the containerd.service systemd unit file:

$ cat <<EOF | sudo tee /etc/systemd/system/containerd.service
[Unit]
Description=containerd container runtime
Documentation=https://containerd.io
After=network.target

[Service]

Delegate=yes
KillMode=process
OOMScoreAdjust=-999
LimitNOFILE=1048576
LimitNPROC=infinity
LimitCORE=infinity

[Install]
WantedBy=multi-user.target
EOF

Configure the Kubelet

$ {
  sudo mv ${HOSTNAME}-key.pem ${HOSTNAME}.pem /var/lib/kubelet/
  sudo mv ${HOSTNAME}.kubeconfig /var/lib/kubelet/kubeconfig
  sudo mv ca.pem /var/lib/kubernetes/
}

Create the kubelet-config.yaml configuration file:

$ cat <<EOF | sudo tee /var/lib/kubelet/kubelet-config.yaml
kind: KubeletConfiguration
apiVersion: kubelet.config.k8s.io/v1beta1
authentication:
  anonymous:
    enabled: false
  webhook:

clusterDomain: "cluster.local"
clusterDNS:
  - "10.32.0.10"
podCIDR: "${POD_CIDR}"
resolvConf: "/run/resolvconf/resolv.conf"
runtimeRequestTimeout: "15m"
tlsCertFile: "/var/lib/kubelet/${HOSTNAME}.pem"
tlsPrivateKeyFile: "/var/lib/kubelet/${HOSTNAME}-key.pem"
EOF

The resolvConf configuration is used to avoid loops when using CoreDNS for service discovery on systems running systemd-resolved.

Create the kubelet.service systemd unit file:

$ cat <<EOF | sudo tee /etc/systemd/system/kubelet.service
[Unit]
Description=Kubernetes Kubelet
Documentation=https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes

  --kubeconfig=/var/lib/kubelet/kubeconfig \\
  --network-plugin=cni \\
  --register-node=true \\
  --v=2
Restart=on-failure
RestartSec=5

[Install]
WantedBy=multi-user.target
EOF

Configure the Kubernetes Proxy

$ sudo mv kube-proxy.kubeconfig /var/lib/kube-proxy/kubeconfig

Create the kube-proxy-config.yaml configuration file:

$ cat <<EOF | sudo tee /var/lib/kube-proxy/kube-proxy-config.yaml
kind: KubeProxyConfiguration
apiVersion: kubeproxy.config.k8s.io/v1alpha1
clientConnection:
  kubeconfig: "/var/lib/kube-proxy/kubeconfig"
mode: "iptables"
clusterCIDR: "10.200.0.0/16"
EOF

Create the kube-proxy.service systemd unit file:

$ cat <<EOF | sudo tee /etc/systemd/system/kube-proxy.service
[Unit]
Description=Kubernetes Kube Proxy
Documentation=https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes

[Service]
ExecStart=/usr/local/bin/kube-proxy \\
  --config=/var/lib/kube-proxy/kube-proxy-config.yaml
Restart=on-failure
RestartSec=5

[Install]
WantedBy=multi-user.target
EOF

Disabling Swap

$ sudo sed -i '/swap/d' /etc/fstab
$ sudo swapoff -a

Starting the Worker Services

$ {
  sudo systemctl daemon-reload
  sudo systemctl enable containerd kubelet kube-proxy
  sudo systemctl start containerd kubelet kube-proxy
}

Remember to run the above commands on each worker node: worker-1, worker-2, and worker-3.

Verification

The virtual machines created in this tutorial will not have permission to complete this section. Run the following commands from the same machine used to create the compute instances.

In client-1, list the registered Kubernetes nodes:

$ ssh -i ~/.ssh/id_rsa-k8s 10.240.0.11 "kubectl get nodes --kubeconfig admin.kubeconfig"

output

NAME       STATUS   ROLES    AGE   VERSION
worker-1   Ready    <none>   35s   v1.12.0
worker-2   Ready    <none>   36s   v1.12.0
worker-3   Ready    <none>   36s   v1.12.0
