4.4. Migrating a MicroShift node to IPv6 dual-stack networking

Procedure

1. If you have not done so, make a copy of the provided config.yaml.default file in the /etc/microshift/ directory, renaming it config.yaml.

2. Keep the new MicroShift config.yaml in the /etc/microshift/ directory. Your config.yaml file is read every time the MicroShift service starts.

   注記

   After you create it, the config.yaml file takes precedence over built-in settings.

3. Add IPv6 configurations to the network section of the MicroShift YAML with your valid values:

   警告

   You must keep the same first entry across restarts and migrations. This is true for any migration: single-to-dual stack, or dual-to-single stack. A complete wipe of the etcd database is required if a change to the first entry is needed. This might result in application data loss and is not supported.

   1. Add an IPv6 configuration for a second network in the network section of the MicroShift YAML with your valid values.

   2. Add network assignments to the network section of the MicroShift config.yaml to enable dual stack with IPv6 as secondary network.

      Example dual-stack IPv6 configuration with network assignments

      # ...
      apiServer:
        subjectAltNames:
        - 192.168.113.117
        - 2001:db9:ca7:ff::1db8 

      1

      
      network:
        clusterNetwork:
        - 10.42.0.0/16 

      2

      
        - fd01::/48 

      3

      
        serviceNetwork:
        - 10.43.0.0/16
        - fd02::/112 

      4

      
      node:
        nodeIP: 192.168.113.117 

      5

      
        nodeIPv6: 2001:db9:ca7:ff::1db8 

      6

      
      # ...

      1

      The IPv6 node address.

      2

      IPv4 network. Specify a clusterNetwork with a CIDR value that is less than 24.

      3

      IPv6 network. Specify a clusterNetwork with a CIDR value that is less than 64.

      4

      Specify an IPv6 CIDR with a prefix of 112. Kubernetes uses only the lowest 16 bits. For a prefix of 112, IP addresses are assigned from 112 to 128 bits.

      5

      Example node IP address. Maintain the previous IPv4 IP address.

      6

      Example node IP address. Must be an IPv6 address family.

4. Complete any other configurations you require, then restart MicroShift by running the following command:

   $ sudo systemctl restart microshift

5. Reset the IP family policy for application pods and services as needed, then restart those application pods and services to enable dual-stack networking. See "Resetting the IP family policy for application pods and services" for a simple example.

1. Retrieve the status of the pods by running the following command:

   $ oc get pod -A -o wide

   Example output

2. Retrieve the networks defined by the OVN-K network plugin by running the following command:

   $ oc get pod -n openshift-ovn-kubernetes ovnkube-master-bltk7 -o jsonpath='{.status.podIPs}'

   Example output

   [{"ip":"192.168.113.117"},{"ip":"2001:db9:ca7:ff::1db8"}]

3. Retrieve the networks defined in the node resource by running the following command:

   $ oc get pod -n openshift-ingress router-default-5b75594b4-228z7 -o jsonpath='{.status.podIPs}'

   Example output

   [{"ip":"10.42.0.3"},{"ip":"fd01:0:0:1::3"}]

   注記

   To return to single-stack networking, you can remove the second entry to the networks and return to the single stack that was configured before migrating to dual-stack.
