This article describes a way to deploy a Kubernetes cluster on a few CentOS 7 machines, using Docker with ploop graphdriver.

Under construction.svg This article is a stub. You can help OpenVZ Wiki by expanding it.

Prerequisites[edit]

Every system should have:

  • CentOS 7 minimal installed
  • firewalld stopped
  • ntpd installed and running

For Docker to work with ploop (on the nodes), you also need:

  • ext4 filesystem on /var/lib
  • vzkernel installed and booted into
  • ploop installed
  • docker with ploop graphdriver installed

CentOS 7 installation[edit]

1. Select "disk", "manual setup", "standard partitioning", "automatically create partitions", then change xfs to ext4 for / and /boot.

2. After reboot, login and edit /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth0 file, making sure it has the following line: 

ONBOOT=yes

3. Enable networking: 

ifup eth0

4. Update the system: 

yum update -y

5. Disable firewalld: 

systemctl stop firewalld; systemctl disable firewalld

6. Install and enable ntpd: 

yum -y install ntp && systemctl start ntpd && systemctl enable ntpd


Master installation[edit]

To install a master node, you need to do the following:

Install etcd and kubernetes-master[edit]

yum -y install etcd kubernetes-master

Configure etcd[edit]

Make sure /etc/etcd/etcd.conf contains this line: 

ETCD_LISTEN_CLIENT_URLS="http://0.0.0.0:2379"

Configure Kubernetes API server[edit]

Make sure /etc/kubernetes/apiserver contains this:

Start master node services[edit]

for S in etcd kube-apiserver kube-controller-manager kube-scheduler; do 
  systemctl restart $S
  systemctl enable $S
done

Set nodes (minions)[edit]

Set the node hostname[edit]

For example: 

echo kube-node2 > /etc/hostname

Install vzkernel[edit]

This is needed for ploop to work. If you don't need ploop, you can skip this step.

First, install vzkernel: 

rpm -ihv https://download.openvz.org/virtuozzo/factory/x86_64/os/Packages/v/vzkernel-3.10.0-229.7.2.vz7.6.9.x86_64.rpm

Or, use the latest vzkernel from https://download.openvz.org/virtuozzo/factory/x86_64/os/Packages/v/

Then reboot into vzkernel: 

reboot

Finally, make sure vzkernel is running: 

uname -r
3.10.0-229.7.2.vz7.6.9

Install docker with ploop graphdriver[edit]

This is needed for ploop to work. If you don't need ploop, you can skip this step.

First, install docker and ploop: 

yum install -y wget
cd /etc/yum.repos.d/
wget https://copr.fedoraproject.org/coprs/kir/docker-ploop/repo/epel-7/kir-docker-ploop-epel-7.repo
echo "priority=60" >> kir-docker-ploop-epel-7.repo
yum install ploop docker

Then, set ploop driver to be default for docker. Make sure /etc/sysconfig/docker-storage contains: 

DOCKER_STORAGE_OPTIONS="-s ploop"

Install flannel and kubernetes-node[edit]

yum -y install flannel kubernetes-node

Configure flannel for master etcd[edit]

Update the following line in /etc/sysconfig/flanneld to make sure it contains master IP: 

FLANNEL_ETCD="http://192.168.122.211:2379"

Configure Kubernetes for master node[edit]

Update the following line in /etc/kubernetes/config to make sure in contains master IP: 

KUBE_MASTER="--master=http://192.168.122.211:8080"

Configure kubelet[edit]

In /etc/kubelet/config:

1. Enable it to listen on all interfaces: 

KUBELET_ADDRESS="--address=0.0.0.0"

2. Comment out this line to use default hostname: 

# KUBELET_HOSTNAME

3. Make sure this points to master node IP: 

KUBELET_API_SERVER="--api_servers=http://192.168.122.211:8080"

Start needed services[edit]

Start needed services: 

systemctl restart docker
systemctl restart flanneld
systemctl restart kubelet
systemctl restart kube-proxy

NOTE: if 'systemctl restart docker' fails, you might need to run: 

systemctl stop docker
ip l del docker0

Enable needed services: 

systemctl enable docker
systemctl enable flanneld
systemctl enable kubelet
systemctl enable kube-proxy

Checking that the system is set up[edit]

On the master node, check that the needed services are running: 

for S in etcd kube-apiserver kube-controller-manager kube-scheduler; do
 systemctl status $S
done

On the nodes, check that the needed services are running: 

systemctl status docker
systemctl status flanneld
systemctl status kubelet
systemctl status kube-proxy

Finally, check that the nodes are visible and active: 

# kubectl get nodes
NAME         LABELS                              STATUS
kube-node1   kubernetes.io/hostname=kube-node1   Ready
kube-node2   kubernetes.io/hostname=kube-node2   Ready

NOTE: if there are some stale nodes listed, you can remove those: 

kubectl delete node localhost.localdomain
