2.9. Moving the router

Procedure

1. 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:

     endpointPublishingStrategy:
       type: LoadBalancerService
     selector: ingresscontroller.operator.openshift.io/deployment-ingresscontroller=default

2. Edit the ingresscontroller resource and change the nodeSelector to use the infra label:

   $ oc edit ingresscontroller default -n openshift-ingress-operator

   Copy to Clipboard Toggle word wrap

   Add the nodeSelector stanza that references the infra label to the spec section, as shown:

     spec:
       nodePlacement:
         nodeSelector:
           matchLabels:
             node-role.kubernetes.io/infra: ""

3. Confirm that the router pod is running on the infra node.

   1. 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>

      Copy to Clipboard Toggle word wrap

      In this example, the running pod is on the ip-10-0-217-226.ec2.internal node.

   2. View the node status of the running pod:

      $ oc get node <node_name> 

      1

      Copy to Clipboard Toggle word wrap

      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

      Copy to Clipboard Toggle word wrap

      Because the role list includes infra, the pod is running on the correct node.
