Set up a local VM cluster

  • Deploy a Kubernetes cluster using Vagrant

The Kubernetes project has a Vagrant 'cloud-provider' with ready-made scripts to set-up and provision a VM-based (Virtualbox) cluster. There are separate VMs for the master and node(s). See Getting started with Vagrant for more detailed information.

Set up

The current Kubernetes release (1.0.3) has a bug with the Vagrant provider that makes it almost unusable. In the meantime, use a custom-built release package - download here and extract the archive.

export KUBERNETES_PROVIDER=vagrant
./cluster/kube-up.sh

This will now provision a single master VM (kubernetes-master) and a node VM (kubernetes-minion-1). By default, each VM in the cluster is running Fedora.

Verify the cluster is up

./cluster/kubectl.sh get nodes
