6.5 KiB
Smoke Test
In this lab you will complete a series of tasks to ensure your Kubernetes cluster is functioning correctly.
Data Encryption
In this section you will verify the ability to encrypt secret data at rest.
Create a generic secret:
kubectl create secret generic kubernetes-the-hard-way \
--from-literal="mykey=mydata"
Print a hexdump of the kubernetes-the-hard-way secret stored in etcd:
gcloud compute ssh controller-0 \
--command "sudo ETCDCTL_API=3 etcdctl get \
--endpoints=https://127.0.0.1:2379 \
--cacert=/etc/etcd/ca.pem \
--cert=/etc/etcd/kubernetes.pem \
--key=/etc/etcd/kubernetes-key.pem\
/registry/secrets/default/kubernetes-the-hard-way | hexdump -C"
output

The etcd key should be prefixed with k8s:enc:aescbc:v1:key1, which indicates the aescbc provider was used to encrypt the data with the key1 encryption key.
Deployments
In this section you will verify the ability to create and manage Deployments.
Create a deployment for the nginx web server:
kubectl create deployment nginx --image=nginx
List the pod created by the nginx deployment:
kubectl get pods -l app=nginx
output
NAME READY STATUS RESTARTS AGE
nginx-f89759699-kpn5m 1/1 Running 0 10s
Port Forwarding
In this section you will verify the ability to access applications remotely using port forwarding.
Retrieve the full name of the nginx pod:
POD_NAME=$(kubectl get pods -l app=nginx -o jsonpath="{.items[0].metadata.name}")
Forward port 8080 on your local machine to port 80 of the nginx pod:
kubectl port-forward $POD_NAME 8080:80
output
Forwarding from 127.0.0.1:8080 -> 80
Forwarding from [::1]:8080 -> 80
In a new terminal make an HTTP request using the forwarding address:
curl --head http://127.0.0.1:8080
output
HTTP/1.1 200 OK
Server: nginx/1.19.1
Date: Sat, 18 Jul 2020 07:14:00 GMT
Content-Type: text/html
Content-Length: 612
Last-Modified: Tue, 07 Jul 2020 15:52:25 GMT
Connection: keep-alive
ETag: "5f049a39-264"
Accept-Ranges: bytes
Switch back to the previous terminal and stop the port forwarding to the nginx pod:
Forwarding from 127.0.0.1:8080 -> 80
Forwarding from [::1]:8080 -> 80
Handling connection for 8080
^C
Logs
In this section you will verify the ability to retrieve container logs.
Print the nginx pod logs:
kubectl logs $POD_NAME
output
...
127.0.0.1 - - [18/Jul/2020:07:14:00 +0000] "HEAD / HTTP/1.1" 200 0 "-" "curl/7.64.0" "-"
Exec
In this section you will verify the ability to execute commands in a container.
Print the nginx version by executing the nginx -v command in the nginx container:
kubectl exec -ti $POD_NAME -- nginx -v
output
nginx version: nginx/1.19.1
Services
In this section you will verify the ability to expose applications using a Service.
Expose the nginx deployment using a NodePort service:
kubectl expose deployment nginx --port 80 --type NodePort
The LoadBalancer service type can not be used because your cluster is not configured with cloud provider integration. Setting up cloud provider integration is out of scope for this tutorial.
Retrieve the node port assigned to the nginx service:
NODE_PORT=$(kubectl get svc nginx \
--output=jsonpath='{range .spec.ports[0]}{.nodePort}')
Create a firewall rule that allows remote access to the nginx node port:
gcloud compute firewall-rules create kubernetes-the-hard-way-allow-nginx-service \
--allow=tcp:${NODE_PORT} \
--network kubernetes-the-hard-way
Retrieve the external IP address of a worker instance:
EXTERNAL_IP=$(gcloud compute instances describe worker-0 \
--format 'value(networkInterfaces[0].accessConfigs[0].natIP)')
Make an HTTP request using the external IP address and the nginx node port:
curl -I http://${EXTERNAL_IP}:${NODE_PORT}
output
HTTP/1.1 200 OK
Server: nginx/1.19.1
