In this lab you will bootstrap the Kubernetes control plane across three compute instances and configure it for high availability. You will also create an external load balancer that exposes the Kubernetes API Servers to remote clients. The following components will be installed on each node: Kubernetes API Server, Scheduler, and Controller Manager.
The commands in this lab must be run on each controller instance: controller-0
, controller-1
, and controller-2
. Login to each controller instance using the ssh
command. Example:
for instance in controller-0 controller-1 controller-2; do
external_ip=$(aws ec2 describe-instances --filters \
"Name=tag:Name,Values=${instance}" \
"Name=instance-state-name,Values=running" \
--output text --query 'Reservations[].Instances[].PublicIpAddress')
echo ssh -i kubernetes.id_rsa ubuntu@$external_ip
done
Now ssh into each one of the IP addresses received in last step.
tmux can be used to run commands on multiple compute instances at the same time. See the Running commands in parallel with tmux section in the Prerequisites lab.
Create the Kubernetes configuration directory:
sudo mkdir -p /etc/kubernetes/config
Download the official Kubernetes release binaries:
wget -q --show-progress --https-only --timestamping \
"https://storage.googleapis.com/kubernetes-release/release/v1.21.0/bin/linux/amd64/kube-apiserver" \
"https://storage.googleapis.com/kubernetes-release/release/v1.21.0/bin/linux/amd64/kube-controller-manager" \
"https://storage.googleapis.com/kubernetes-release/release/v1.21.0/bin/linux/amd64/kube-scheduler" \
"https://storage.googleapis.com/kubernetes-release/release/v1.21.0/bin/linux/amd64/kubectl"
Install the Kubernetes binaries:
chmod +x kube-apiserver kube-controller-manager kube-scheduler kubectl
sudo mv kube-apiserver kube-controller-manager kube-scheduler kubectl /usr/local/bin/
sudo mkdir -p /var/lib/kubernetes/
sudo mv ca.pem ca-key.pem kubernetes-key.pem kubernetes.pem \
service-account-key.pem service-account.pem \
encryption-config.yaml /var/lib/kubernetes/
The instance internal IP address will be used to advertise the API Server to members of the cluster. Retrieve the internal IP address for the current compute instance:
INTERNAL_IP=$(curl -s http://169.254.169.254/latest/meta-data/local-ipv4)
KUBERNETES_PUBLIC_ADDRESS=<ELB_ADDRESS>
!! Keep KUBERNETES_PUBLIC_ADDRESS value from the compute server
KUBERNETES_PUBLIC_ADDRESS=$(aws elbv2 describe-load-balancers \
--load-balancer-arns ${LOAD_BALANCER_ARN} \
--output text --query 'LoadBalancers[].DNSName')

Allow up to 10 seconds for the Kubernetes API Server to fully initialize.
kubectl cluster-info --kubeconfig admin.kubeconfig
Kubernetes control plane is running at https://127.0.0.1:6443
Remember to run the above command on each controller node:
controller-0
,controller-1
, andcontroller-2
.
In order for kubectl exec
commands to work, the controller nodes must each
be able to resolve the worker hostnames. This is not set up by default in
AWS. The workaround is to add manual host entries on each of the controller
nodes with this command:
cat <<EOF | sudo tee -a /etc/hosts
10.0.1.20 ip-10-0-1-20
10.0.1.21 ip-10-0-1-21
10.0.1.22 ip-10-0-1-22
EOF
If this step is missed, the DNS Cluster Add-on testing will fail with an error like this:
Error from server: error dialing backend: dial tcp: lookup ip-10-0-1-22 on 127.0.0.53:53: server misbehaving
run once from on of the controller nodes
In this section you will configure RBAC permissions to allow the Kubernetes API Server to access the Kubelet API on each worker node. Access to the Kubelet API is required for retrieving metrics, logs, and executing commands in pods.
This tutorial sets the Kubelet
--authorization-mode
flag toWebhook
. Webhook mode uses the SubjectAccessReview API to determine authorization.
The commands in this section will effect the entire cluster and only need to be run once from one of the controller nodes.
external_ip=$(aws ec2 describe-instances --filters \
"Name=tag:Name,Values=controller-0" \
"Name=instance-state-name,Values=running" \
--output text --query 'Reservations[].Instances[].PublicIpAddress')
ssh -i kubernetes.id_rsa ubuntu@${external_ip}
Create the system:kube-apiserver-to-kubelet
ClusterRole with permissions to access the Kubelet API and perform most common tasks associated with managing pods:
cat <<EOF | kubectl apply --kubeconfig admin.kubeconfig -f -
apiVersion: rbac.authorization.k8s.io/v1
kind: ClusterRole
metadata:
annotations:
rbac.authorization.kubernetes.io/autoupdate: "true"
labels:
kubernetes.io/bootstrapping: rbac-defaults
name: system:kube-apiserver-to-kubelet
rules:
- apiGroups:
- ""
resources:
- nodes/proxy
- nodes/stats
- nodes/log
- nodes/spec
- nodes/metrics
verbs:
- "*"
EOF
The Kubernetes API Server authenticates to the Kubelet as the kubernetes
user using the client certificate as defined by the --kubelet-client-certificate
flag.
Bind the system:kube-apiserver-to-kubelet
ClusterRole to the kubernetes
user:
cat <<EOF | kubectl apply --kubeconfig admin.kubeconfig -f -
apiVersion: rbac.authorization.k8s.io/v1
