Chapter 1. Using the MicroShift configuration file
A YAML file customizes MicroShift instances with your preferences, settings, and parameters.
If you want to make configuration changes or deploy applications through the MicroShift API with tools other than kustomize manifests, you must wait until the greenboot health checks have finished. This ensures that your changes are not lost if greenboot rolls your rpm-ostree system back to an earlier state.
1.1. The MicroShift YAML configuration file
At start up, MicroShift checks the system-wide /etc/microshift/ directory for a configuration file named config.yaml. If the configuration file does not exist in the directory, built-in default values are used to start the service.
The MicroShift configuration file must be used in combination with host and, sometimes, application and service settings. Ensure that each item is configured in tandem when you customize your MicroShift cluster.
1.1.1. Default settings
If you do not create a config.yaml file, default values are used. The following example shows the default configuration settings.
To see the default values, run the following command:
$ microshift show-config

1.2. Using custom settings
To create custom configurations, make a copy of the config.yaml.default file that is provided in the /etc/microshift/ directory, renaming it config.yaml. Keep this file in the /etc/microshift/ directory, and then you can change supported settings that are expected to override the defaults before starting or restarting MicroShift.
Restart MicroShift after changing any configuration settings to have them take effect. The config.yaml file is read only when MicroShift starts.
1.2.1. Separate restarts
Applications and other optional services used with your MicroShift cluster might also need to be restarted separately to apply configuration changes throughout the cluster. For example, when making changes to certain networking settings, you must stop and restart service and application pods to apply those changes. See each procedure for the task you are completing for more information.
If you add all of the configurations you need at the same time, you can minimize system restarts.
1.2.2. Parameters and values for the MicroShift config.yaml file
The following table explains MicroShift configuration YAML parameters and valid values for each:
| Field | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
|
|
| A string that specifies the IP address from which the API server is advertised to members of the cluster. The default value is calculated based on the address of the service network. |

|
|
| The full path to the certificate. |
|
|
| The full path to the certificate key. |
|
|
| Optional. Add a list of explicit DNS names. Leading wildcards are allowed. If no names are provided, the implicit names are extracted from the certificates. |
|
|
Fully qualified domain names (FQDNs), wildcards such as | Subject Alternative Names for API server certificates. SANs indicate all of the domain names and IP addresses that are secured by a certificate. |

1.2.3. Configuring the advertise address network flag
The apiserver.advertiseAddress flag specifies the IP address on which to advertise the API server to members of the cluster. This address must be reachable by the cluster. You can set a custom IP address here, but you must also add the IP address to a host interface. Customizing this parameter preempts MicroShift from adding a default IP address to the br-ex network interface.
If you customize the advertiseAddress IP address, make sure it is reachable by the cluster when MicroShift starts by adding the IP address to a host interface.
If unset, the default value is set to the next immediate subnet after the service network. For example, when the service network is 10.43.0.0/16, the advertiseAddress is set to 10.44.0.0/32.
1.2.4. Extending the port range for NodePort services
The serviceNodePortRange setting extends the port range available to NodePort services. This option is useful when specific standard ports under the 30000-32767 range need to be exposed. For example, if your device needs to expose the 1883/tcp MQ Telemetry Transport (MQTT) port on the network because client devices cannot use a different port.
NodePorts can overlap with system ports, causing a malfunction of the system or MicroShift.
Consider the following when configuring the NodePort service ranges:
-
Do not create any NodePort service without an explicit
nodePortselection. When an explicitnodePortis not specified, the port is assigned randomly by thekube-apiserverand cannot be predicted. -
Do not create any NodePort service for any system service port, MicroShift port, or other services you expose on your device
