Bootstrapping Kubernetes Workers

In this lab you will bootstrap 3 Kubernetes worker nodes. The following virtual machines will be used:

worker0
worker1
worker2

Why

Kubernetes worker nodes are responsible for running your containers. All Kubernetes clusters need one or more worker nodes. We are running the worker nodes on dedicated machines for the following reasons:

Ease of deployment and configuration
Avoid mixing arbitrary workloads with critical cluster components. We are building machine with just enough resources so we don't have to worry about wasting resources.

Some people would like to run workers and cluster services anywhere in the cluster. This is totally possible, and you'll have to decide what's best for your environment.

Provision the Kubernetes Worker Nodes

Run the following commands on worker0, worker1, worker2:

Set the Kubernetes Public Address

GCE

KUBERNETES_PUBLIC_ADDRESS=$(gcloud compute addresses describe kubernetes \
  --format 'value(address)')

AWS

KUBERNETES_PUBLIC_ADDRESS=$(aws elb describe-load-balancers \
  --load-balancer-name kubernetes | \
  jq -r '.LoadBalancerDescriptions[].DNSName')

sudo mkdir -p /var/lib/kubelet

sudo mv bootstrap.kubeconfig /var/lib/kubelet

Move the TLS certificates in place

sudo mkdir -p /var/lib/kubernetes

sudo mv ca.pem /var/lib/kubernetes/

Docker

wget https://get.docker.com/builds/Linux/x86_64/docker-1.12.6.tgz

tar -xvf docker-1.12.6.tgz

sudo cp docker/docker* /usr/bin/

Create the Docker systemd unit file:

cat > docker.service <<EOF
[Unit]
Description=Docker Application Container Engine
Documentation=http://docs.docker.io

[Service]
ExecStart=/usr/bin/docker daemon \\
  --iptables=false \\
  --ip-masq=false \\
  --host=unix:///var/run/docker.sock \\
  --log-level=error \\
  --storage-driver=overlay
Restart=on-failure
RestartSec=5

[Install]
WantedBy=multi-user.target
EOF

sudo mv docker.service /etc/systemd/system/docker.service

sudo systemctl daemon-reload
sudo systemctl enable docker
sudo systemctl start docker

sudo docker version

kubelet

The Kubernetes kubelet no longer relies on docker networking for pods! The Kubelet can now use CNI - the Container Network Interface to manage machine level networking requirements.

Download and install CNI plugins

sudo mkdir -p /opt/cni

wget https://storage.googleapis.com/kubernetes-release/network-plugins/cni-amd64-0799f5732f2a11b329d9e3d51b9c8f2e3759f2ff.tar.gz

sudo tar -xvf cni-amd64-0799f5732f2a11b329d9e3d51b9c8f2e3759f2ff.tar.gz -C /opt/cni

Download and install the Kubernetes worker binaries:

wget https://storage.googleapis.com/kubernetes-release/release/v1.6.0-beta.4/bin/linux/amd64/kubectl

wget https://storage.googleapis.com/kubernetes-release/release/v1.6.0-beta.4/bin/linux/amd64/kube-proxy

wget https://storage.googleapis.com/kubernetes-release/release/v1.6.0-beta.4/bin/linux/amd64/kubelet

chmod +x kubectl kube-proxy kubelet

sudo mv kubectl kube-proxy kubelet /usr/bin/

Create the kubelet systemd unit file:

cat > kubelet.service <<EOF

WantedBy=multi-user.target

sudo mv kubelet.service /etc/systemd/system/kubelet.service

sudo systemctl status kubelet --no-pager

kube-proxy

sudo mv kube-proxy.service /etc/systemd/system/kube-proxy.service

sudo systemctl start kube-proxy

sudo systemctl status kube-proxy --no-pager

Remember to run these steps on worker0, worker1, and worker2
