See documentation for the latest supported version 3 or the latest supported version 4.3.11. Service serving certificate secrets
Service serving certificate secrets are intended to support complex middleware applications that need out-of-the-box certificates. It has the same settings as the server certificates generated by the administrator tooling for nodes and masters.
Procedure
To secure communication to your service, have the cluster generate a signed serving certificate/key pair into a secret in your namespace.
Set the
service.alpha.openshift.io/serving-cert-secret-nameannotation on your service with the value set to the name you want to use for your secret.Then, your
PodSpeccan mount that secret. When it is available, your pod runs. The certificate is good for the internal service DNS name,<service.name>.<service.namespace>.svc.The certificate and key are in PEM format, stored in
tls.crtandtls.keyrespectively. The certificate/key pair is automatically replaced when it gets close to expiration. View the expiration date in theservice.alpha.openshift.io/expiryannotation on the secret, which is in RFC3339 format.
In most cases, the service DNS name <service.name>.<service.namespace>.svc is not externally routable. The primary use of <service.name>.<service.namespace>.svc is for intracluster or intraservice communication, and with re-encrypt routes.
Other pods can trust cluster-created certificates, which are only signed for internal DNS names, by using the certificate authority (CA) bundle in the /var/run/secrets/kubernetes.io/serviceaccount/service-ca.crt file that is automatically mounted in their pod.
The signature algorithm for this feature is x509.SHA256WithRSA. To manually rotate, delete the generated secret. A new certificate is created.
