1.3. Moving resources to infrastructure machine sets
Some of the infrastructure resources are deployed in your cluster by default. You can move them to the infrastructure machine sets that you created.
1.3.1. Moving the router
You can deploy the router pod to a different machine set. By default, the pod is deployed to a worker node.
Prerequisites
- Configure additional machine sets in your OpenShift Container Platform cluster.
Procedure
View the
IngressController
custom resource for the router Operator:$ oc get ingresscontroller default -n openshift-ingress-operator -o yaml
The command output resembles the following text:
apiVersion: operator.openshift.io/v1 kind: IngressController metadata: creationTimestamp: 2019-04-18T12:35:39Z finalizers: - ingresscontroller.operator.openshift.io/finalizer-ingresscontroller generation: 1 name: default namespace: openshift-ingress-operator resourceVersion: "11341" selfLink: /apis/operator.openshift.io/v1/namespaces/openshift-ingress-operator/ingresscontrollers/default uid: 79509e05-61d6-11e9-bc55-02ce4781844a spec: {} status: availableReplicas: 2 conditions: - lastTransitionTime: 2019-04-18T12:36:15Z status: "True" type: Available domain: apps.<cluster>.example.com endpointPublishingStrategy: type: LoadBalancerService selector: ingresscontroller.operator.openshift.io/deployment-ingresscontroller=default
Edit the
ingresscontroller
resource and change thenodeSelector
to use theinfra
label:$ oc edit ingresscontroller default -n openshift-ingress-operator
Add the
nodeSelector
stanza that references theinfra
label to thespec
section, as shown:spec: nodePlacement: nodeSelector: matchLabels: node-role.kubernetes.io/infra: ""
Confirm that the router pod is running on the
infra
node.View the list of router pods and note the node name of the running pod:
$ oc get pod -n openshift-ingress -o wide
Example output
NAME READY STATUS RESTARTS AGE IP NODE NOMINATED NODE READINESS GATES router-default-86798b4b5d-bdlvd 1/1 Running 0 28s 10.130.2.4 ip-10-0-217-226.ec2.internal <none> <none> router-default-955d875f4-255g8 0/1 Terminating 0 19h 10.129.2.4 ip-10-0-148-172.ec2.internal <none> <none>
In this example, the running pod is on the
ip-10-0-217-226.ec2.internal
node.View the node status of the running pod:
$ oc get node <node_name> 1
- 1
- Specify the
<node_name>
that you obtained from the pod list.
Example output
NAME STATUS ROLES AGE VERSION ip-10-0-217-226.ec2.internal Ready infra,worker 17h v1.18.3
Because the role list includes
infra
, the pod is running on the correct node.
1.3.2. Moving the default registry
You configure the registry Operator to deploy its pods to different nodes.
Prerequisites
- Configure additional machine sets in your OpenShift Container Platform cluster.
Procedure
View the
config/instance
object:$ oc get configs.imageregistry.operator.openshift.io/cluster -o yaml
Example output
apiVersion: imageregistry.operator.openshift.io/v1 kind: Config metadata: creationTimestamp: 2019-02-05T13:52:05Z finalizers: - imageregistry.operator.openshift.io/finalizer generation: 1 name: cluster resourceVersion: "56174" selfLink: /apis/imageregistry.operator.openshift.io/v1/configs/cluster uid: 36fd3724-294d-11e9-a524-12ffeee2931b spec: httpSecret: d9a012ccd117b1e6616ceccb2c3bb66a5fed1b5e481623 logging: 2 managementState: Managed proxy: {} replicas: 1 requests: read: {} write: {} storage: s3: bucket: image-registry-us-east-1-c92e88cad85b48ec8b312344dff03c82-392c region: us-east-1 status: ...
Edit the
config/instance
object:$ oc edit configs.imageregistry.operator.openshift.io/cluster
Add the following lines of text the
spec
section of the object:nodeSelector: node-role.kubernetes.io/infra: ""
Verify the registry pod has been moved to the infrastructure node.
Run the following command to identify the node where the registry pod is located:
$ oc get pods -o wide -n openshift-image-registry
Confirm the node has the label you specified:
$ oc describe node <node_name>
Review the command output and confirm that
node-role.kubernetes.io/infra
is in theLABELS
list.
1.3.3. Creating infrastructure machine sets for production environments
In a production deployment, deploy at least three machine sets to hold infrastructure components. Both the logging aggregation solution and the service mesh deploy Elasticsearch, and Elasticsearch requires three instances that are installed on different nodes. For high availability, install deploy these nodes to different availability zones. Since you need different machine sets for each availability zone, create at least three machine sets.
1.3.3.1. Creating a machine set
In addition to the ones created by the installation program, you can create your own machine sets to dynamically manage the machine compute resources for specific workloads of your choice.
Prerequisites
- Deploy an OpenShift Container Platform cluster.
-
Install the OpenShift CLI (
oc
). -
Log in to
oc
as a user withcluster-admin
permission.
Procedure
Create a new YAML file that contains the machine set custom resource (CR) sample, as shown, and is named
<file_name>.yaml
.Ensure that you set the
<clusterID>
and<role>
parameter values.If you are not sure about which value to set for a specific field, you can check an existing machine set from your cluster.
$ oc get machinesets -n openshift-machine-api
Example output
NAME DESIRED CURRENT READY AVAILABLE AGE agl030519-vplxk-worker-us-east-1a 1 1 1 1 55m agl030519-vplxk-worker-us-east-1b 1 1 1 1 55m agl030519-vplxk-worker-us-east-1c 1 1 1 1 55m agl030519-vplxk-worker-us-east-1d 0 0 55m agl030519-vplxk-worker-us-east-1e 0 0 55m agl030519-vplxk-worker-us-east-1f 0 0 55m
Check values of a specific machine set:
$ oc get machineset <machineset_name> -n \ openshift-machine-api -o yaml
Example output
... template: metadata: labels: machine.openshift.io/cluster-api-cluster: agl030519-vplxk 1 machine.openshift.io/cluster-api-machine-role: worker 2 machine.openshift.io/cluster-api-machine-type: worker machine.openshift.io/cluster-api-machineset: agl030519-vplxk-worker-us-east-1a
Create the new
MachineSet
CR:$ oc create -f <file_name>.yaml
View the list of machine sets:
$ oc get machineset -n openshift-machine-api
Example output
NAME DESIRED CURRENT READY AVAILABLE AGE agl030519-vplxk-infra-us-east-1a 1 1 1 1 11m agl030519-vplxk-worker-us-east-1a 1 1 1 1 55m agl030519-vplxk-worker-us-east-1b 1 1 1 1 55m agl030519-vplxk-worker-us-east-1c 1 1 1 1 55m agl030519-vplxk-worker-us-east-1d 0 0 55m agl030519-vplxk-worker-us-east-1e 0 0 55m agl030519-vplxk-worker-us-east-1f 0 0 55m
When the new machine set is available, the
DESIRED
andCURRENT
values match. If the machine set is not available, wait a few minutes and run the command again.After the new machine set is available, check status of the machine and the node that it references:
$ oc describe machine <name> -n openshift-machine-api
For example:
$ oc describe machine agl030519-vplxk-infra-us-east-1a -n openshift-machine-api
Example output
status: addresses: - address: 10.0.133.18 type: InternalIP - address: "" type: ExternalDNS - address: ip-10-0-133-18.ec2.internal type: InternalDNS lastUpdated: "2019-05-03T10:38:17Z" nodeRef: kind: Node name: ip-10-0-133-18.ec2.internal uid: 71fb8d75-6d8f-11e9-9ff3-0e3f103c7cd8 providerStatus: apiVersion: awsproviderconfig.openshift.io/v1beta1 conditions: - lastProbeTime: "2019-05-03T10:34:31Z" lastTransitionTime: "2019-05-03T10:34:31Z" message: machine successfully created reason: MachineCreationSucceeded status: "True" type: MachineCreation instanceId: i-09ca0701454124294 instanceState: running kind: AWSMachineProviderStatus
View the new node and confirm that the new node has the label that you specified:
$ oc get node <node_name> --show-labels
Review the command output and confirm that
node-role.kubernetes.io/<your_label>
is in theLABELS
list.
Any change to a machine set is not applied to existing machines owned by the machine set. For example, labels edited or added to an existing machine set are not propagated to existing machines and nodes associated with the machine set.
1.3.4. Creating machine sets for different clouds
Use the sample machine set for your cloud.
1.3.4.1. Sample YAML for a machine set custom resource on AWS
