# Bootstrapping the etcd Cluster
Kubernetes components are stateless and store cluster state in [etcd](https://github.com/coreos/etcd). In this lab you will bootstrap a three node etcd cluster and configure it for high availability and secure remote access.
## Prerequisites
The commands in this chapter must be run on each controller instance: `controller-1`, `controller-2`, and `controller-3`. Login to each controller node:
```
$ ssh -i ~/.ssh/id_rsa-k8s 10.240.0.11
```
### Running commands in parallel with tmux
[tmux](https://github.com/tmux/tmux/wiki) can be used to run commands on multiple virtual machines at the same time. See the [Running commands in parallel with tmux](01-prerequisites.md#running-commands-in-parallel-with-tmux) section in the Prerequisites lab.
## Bootstrapping an etcd Cluster Member
### Download and Install the etcd Binaries
Download the official etcd release binaries from the [coreos/etcd](https://github.com/coreos/etcd) GitHub project:
```
$ wget -q --show-progress --https-only --timestamping \
"https://github.com/coreos/etcd/releases/download/v3.3.9/etcd-v3.3.9-linux-amd64.tar.gz"
```
Extract and install the `etcd` server and the `etcdctl` command line utility:
```
$ {
tar -xvf etcd-v3.3.9-linux-amd64.tar.gz
sudo mv etcd-v3.3.9-linux-amd64/etcd* /usr/local/bin/
}
```
### Configure the etcd Server
```
$ {
sudo mkdir -p /etc/etcd /var/lib/etcd
sudo cp ca.pem kubernetes-key.pem kubernetes.pem /etc/etcd/
}
```
The virtual machine's IP address will be used to serve client requests and communicate with etcd cluster peers. Get IP address for the current virtual machine:
```
$ INTERNAL_IP=$(ip a s | grep 'inet 10' | awk '{ print $2 }' | awk -F"/" '{ print $1 }')
```
Each etcd member must have a unique name within an etcd cluster. Set the etcd name to match the hostname of the current virtual machine:
```
$ ETCD_NAME=$(hostname -s)
```
Create the `etcd.service` systemd unit file:
```
$ cat <<EOF | sudo tee /etc/systemd/system/etcd.service
[Unit]

--initial-cluster-state new \\
--data-dir=/var/lib/etcd

```
### Start the etcd Server
```
$ {
sudo systemctl daemon-reload
sudo systemctl enable etcd
sudo systemctl start etcd
}
```
> Remember to run the above commands on each controller node: `controller-1`, `controller-2`, and `controller-3`.
## Verification
List the etcd cluster members:
```
$ sudo ETCDCTL_API=3 etcdctl member list \
--endpoints=https://127.0.0.1:2379 \
--cacert=/etc/etcd/ca.pem \
--cert=/etc/etcd/kubernetes.pem \
--key=/etc/etcd/kubernetes-key.pem
```
> output
