Installing kuryr-kubernetes manually

Configure kuryr-k8s-controller

Install kuryr-k8s-controller in a virtualenv:

$ mkdir kuryr-k8s-controller
$ cd kuryr-k8s-controller
$ virtualenv env
$ git clone http://git.openstack.org/openstack/kuryr-kubernetes
$ . env/bin/activate
$ pip install -e kuryr-kubernetes

In neutron or in horizon create subnet for pods, subnet for services and a security-group for pods. You may use existing if you like.

Add reference neutron cli commands

Create /etc/kuryr/kuryr.conf:

$ cd kuryr-kubernetes
$ ./tools/generate_config_file_samples.sh
$ cp etc/kuryr.conf.sample /etc/kuryr/kuryr.conf

Edit kuryr.conf:

[DEFAULT]
use_stderr = true
bindir = {path_to_env}/libexec/kuryr

[kubernetes]
api_root = http://{ip_of_kubernetes_apiserver}:8080

[neutron]
auth_url = http://127.0.0.1:35357/v3/
username = admin
user_domain_name = Default
password = ADMIN_PASSWORD
project_name = service
project_domain_name = Default
auth_type = password

[neutron_defaults]
ovs_bridge = br-int
pod_security_groups = {id_of_secuirity_group_for_pods}
pod_subnet = {id_of_subnet_for_pods}
project = {id_of_project}
service_subnet = {id_of_subnet_for_k8s_services}

Note that the service_subnet and the pod_subnet should be routable and that the pods should allow service subnet access.

Octavia supports two ways of performing the load balancing between the Kubernetes load balancers and their members:

• Layer2: Octavia, apart from the VIP port in the services subnet, creates a Neutron port to the subnet of each of the members. This way the traffic from the Service Haproxy to the members will not go through the router again, only will have gone through the router to reach the service.
• Layer3: Octavia only creates the VIP port. The traffic from the service VIP to the members will go back to the router to reach the pod subnet. It is important to note that will have some performance impact depending on the SDN.

At the moment Kuryr-Kubernetes supports only L3 mode (both for Octavia and for the deprecated Neutron-LBaaSv2.

This means that:

• There should be a router between the two subnets.

• The pod_security_groups setting should include a security group with a rule granting access to all the CIDR or the service subnet, e.g.:

  openstack security group create --project k8s_cluster_project \
      service_pod_access_sg
  openstack --project k8s_cluster_project security group rule create \
      --remote-ip cidr_of_service_subnet --ethertype IPv4 --protocol tcp \
      service_pod_access_sg

• The uuid of this security group id should be added to the comma separated list of pod security groups. pod_security_groups in [neutron_defaults].

Run kuryr-k8s-controller:

$ kuryr-k8s-controller --config-file /etc/kuryr/kuryr.conf -d

Alternatively you may run it in screen:

$ screen -dm kuryr-k8s-controller --config-file /etc/kuryr/kuryr.conf -d

Configure kuryr-cni

On every kubernetes minion node (and on master if you intend to run containers there) you need to configure kuryr-cni.

Install kuryr-cni a virtualenv:

$ mkdir kuryr-k8s-cni
$ cd kuryr-k8s-cni
$ virtualenv env
$ . env/bin/activate
$ git clone http://git.openstack.org/openstack/kuryr-kubernetes
$ pip install -e kuryr-kubernetes

Create /etc/kuryr/kuryr.conf:

$ cd kuryr-kubernetes
$ ./tools/generate_config_file_samples.sh
$ cp etc/kuryr.conf.sample /etc/kuryr/kuryr.conf

Edit kuryr.conf:

[DEFAULT]
use_stderr = true
bindir = /path/to/env/libexec/kuryr
[kubernetes]
api_root = http://{ip_of_kubernetes_apiserver}:8080

Link the CNI binary to CNI directory, where kubelet would find it:

$ mkdir -p /opt/cni/bin
$ ln -s $(which kuryr-cni) /opt/cni/bin/

Create the CNI config file for kuryr-cni: /etc/cni/net.d/10-kuryr.conf. Kubelet would only use the lexicographically first file in that direcotory, so make sure that it is kuryr's config file:

{
    "cniVersion": "0.3.0",
    "name": "kuryr",
    "type": "kuryr-cni",
    "kuryr_conf": "/etc/kuryr/kuryr.conf",
    "debug": true
}

Install os-vif and oslo.privsep libraries globally. These modules are used to plug interfaces and would be run with raised privileges. os-vif uses sudo to raise privileges, and they would need to be installed globally to work correctly:

deactivate
sudo pip install 'oslo.privsep>=1.20.0' 'os-vif>=1.5.0'
