Chapter 1. Using the MicroShift configuration file


A YAML file customizes MicroShift instances with your preferences, settings, and parameters.

Note

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

    Default null value deploys snapshot-controller and snapshot-webhook.

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.

Important

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.

Tip

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:

Table 1.1. MicroShift config.yaml parameters
FieldTypeDescription

advertiseAddress

string

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.

auditLog.maxFileAge

number

How long log files are kept before automatic deletion. The default value of 0 in the maxFileAge parameter means a log file is never deleted based on age. This value can be configured.

auditLog.maxFileSize

number

By default, when the audit.log file reaches the maxFileSize limit, the audit.log file is rotated and MicroShift begins writing to a new audit.log file. This value can be configured.

auditLog.maxFiles

number

The total number of log files kept. By default, MicroShift retains 10 log files. The oldest is deleted when an excess file is created. This value can be configured.

auditLog.profile

Default, WriteRequestBodies, AllRequestBodies, or None

Logs only metadata for read and write requests; does not log request bodies except for OAuth access token requests. If you do not specify this field, the Default profile is used.

namedCertificates

list

Defines externally generated certificates and domain names by using custom certificate authorities.

namedCertificates.certPath

path

The full path to the certificate.

namedCertificates.keyPath

path

The full path to the certificate key.

namedCertificates.names

list

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.

subjectAltNames

Fully qualified domain names (FQDNs), wildcards such as *.domain.com, or IP addresses

Subject Alternative Names for API server certificates. SANs indicate all of the domain names and IP addresses that are secured by a certificate.

debugging.logLevel

Normal, Debug, Trace, or TraceAll

Log verbosity. Default is Normal.

dns.baseDomain

valid domain

Base domain of the cluster. All managed DNS records are subdomains of this base.

etcd.memoryLimitMB

number

By default, etcd uses as much memory as needed to handle the load on the system. However, in memory constrained systems, it might be preferred or necessary to limit the amount of memory etcd can to use at a given time.

ingress.listenAddress

IP address, NIC name, or multiple

Value defaults to the entire network of the host. The valid configurable value is a list that can be either a single IP address or NIC name or multiple IP addresses and NIC names.

ingress.ports.http

80

Default port shown. Configurable. Valid value is a single, unique port in the 1-65535 range. The values of the ports.http and ports.https fields cannot be the same.

ingress.ports.https

443

Default port shown. Configurable. Valid value is a single, unique port in the 1-65535 range. The values of the ports.http and ports.https fields cannot be the same.

ingress.routeAdmissionPolicy. namespaceOwnership

Strict or InterNamespaceAllowed

Describes how hostname claims across namespaces are handled. By default, allows routes to claim different paths of the same hostname across namespaces. Specifying Strict prevents routes in different namespaces from claiming the same hostname. If the value is deleted in a customized MicroShift config.yaml, the InterNamespaceAllowed value is automatically set.

ingress.status

Managed or Removed

Router status. Default is Managed.

kubelet

See the MicroShift low-latency instructions

Parameter for passthrough configuration of the kubelet node agent. Used for low-latency configuration. Default value is null.

manifests

list of paths

The locations on the file system to scan for kustomization files to use to load manifests. Set to a list of paths to scan only those paths. Set to an empty list to disable loading manifests. The entries in the list can be glob patterns to match multiple subdirectories. Default values are /usr/lib/microshift/manifests, /usr/lib/microshift/manifests.d/, /etc/microshift/manifests, and /etc/microshift/manifests.d/.

network.clusterNetwork

IP address block

A block of IP addresses from which pod IP addresses are allocated. IPv4 is the default. Dual-stack entries are supported. The first entry in this field is immutable after MicroShift starts. Default range is 10.42.0.0/16.

network.serviceNetwork

IP address block

A block of virtual IP addresses for Kubernetes services. IP address pool for services. IPv4 is the default. Dual-stack entries are supported. The first entry in this field is immutable after MicroShift starts. Default range is 10.43.0.0/16.

network.serviceNodePortRange

range

The port range allowed for Kubernetes services of type NodePort. If not specified, the default range of 30000-32767 is used. Services without a NodePort specified are automatically allocated one from this range. This parameter can be updated after MicroShift starts.

node.hostnameOverride

string

The name of the node. The default value is the hostname. If non-empty, this string is used to identify the node instead of the hostname. This value is immutable after MicroShift starts.

node.nodeIP

IPv4 address

The IPv4 address of the node. The default value is the IP address of the default route.

nodeIPv6

IPv6 address

The IPv6 address for the node for dual-stack configurations. Cannot be configured in single stack for either IPv4 or IPv6. Default is an empty value or null.

storage.driver

none or lvms

Default value is empty. An empty value or null field defaults to LVMS deployment.

storage.optionalCsiComponents

array

Default value is null or an empty array. A null or empty array defaults to deploying snapshot-controller and snapshot-webhook. Expected values are csi-snapshot-controller, csi-snapshot-webhook, or none. An entry of none is mutually exclusive with all other values.

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.

Important

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.

Important

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 nodePort selection. When an explicit nodePort is not specified, the port is assigned randomly by the kube-apiserver and cannot be predicted.
  • Do not create any NodePort service for any system service port, MicroShift port, or other services you expose on your device HostNetwork.
  • Table one specifies ports to avoid when extending the port range:

    Table 1.2. Ports to avoid.
