Kubespray has been tested on a number of OpenStack Public Clouds including (in alphabetical order):
- Auro
- Betacloud
- CityCloud
- DreamHost
- ELASTX
- EnterCloudSuite
- FugaCloud
- Infomaniak
- Open Telekom Cloud : requires to set the variable
wait_for_floatingip = "true"
in your cluster.tfvars - OVHcloud
- Rackspace
- Ultimum
- VexxHost
- Zetta
The cloud provider is configured to have Octavia by default in Kubespray.
-
Enable the external OpenStack cloud provider in
group_vars/all/all.yml
:cloud_provider: external external_cloud_provider: openstack
-
Enable Cinder CSI in
group_vars/all/openstack.yml
:cinder_csi_enabled: true
-
Enable topology support (optional), if your openstack provider has custom Zone names you can override the default "nova" zone by setting the variable
cinder_topology_zones
cinder_topology: true
-
Enabling
cinder_csi_ignore_volume_az: true
, ignores volumeAZ and schedules on any of the available node AZ.cinder_csi_ignore_volume_az: true
-
If you are using OpenStack loadbalancer(s) replace the
openstack_lbaas_subnet_id
with the newexternal_openstack_lbaas_subnet_id
. Note The new cloud provider is using Octavia instead of Neutron LBaaS by default! -
If you are in a case of a multi-nic OpenStack VMs (see kubernetes/cloud-provider-openstack#407 and #6083 for explanation), you should override the default OpenStack networking configuration:
external_openstack_network_ipv6_disabled: false external_openstack_network_internal_networks: [] external_openstack_network_public_networks: []
-
You can override the default OpenStack metadata configuration (see #6338 for explanation):
external_openstack_metadata_search_order: "configDrive,metadataService"
-
Available variables for configuring lbaas:
external_openstack_lbaas_enabled: true external_openstack_lbaas_floating_network_id: "Neutron network ID to get floating IP from" external_openstack_lbaas_floating_subnet_id: "Neutron subnet ID to get floating IP from" external_openstack_lbaas_method: ROUND_ROBIN external_openstack_lbaas_provider: amphora external_openstack_lbaas_subnet_id: "Neutron subnet ID to create LBaaS VIP" external_openstack_lbaas_network_id: "Neutron network ID to create LBaaS VIP" external_openstack_lbaas_manage_security_groups: false external_openstack_lbaas_create_monitor: false external_openstack_lbaas_monitor_delay: 5s external_openstack_lbaas_monitor_max_retries: 1 external_openstack_lbaas_monitor_timeout: 3s external_openstack_lbaas_internal_lb: false
-
Run
source path/to/your/openstack-rc
to read your OpenStack credentials likeOS_AUTH_URL
,OS_USERNAME
,OS_PASSWORD
, etc. Those variables are used for accessing OpenStack from the external cloud provider. -
Run the
cluster.yml
playbook
Being L3 CNI, calico and kube-router do not encapsulate all packages with the hosts' ip addresses. Instead the packets will be routed with the PODs ip addresses directly.
OpenStack will filter and drop all packets from ips it does not know to prevent spoofing.
In order to make L3 CNIs work on OpenStack you will need to tell OpenStack to allow pods packets by allowing the network they use.
First you will need the ids of your OpenStack instances that will run kubernetes:
openstack server list --project YOUR_PROJECT
+--------------------------------------+--------+----------------------------------+--------+-------------+
| ID | Name | Tenant ID | Status | Power State |
+--------------------------------------+--------+----------------------------------+--------+-------------+
| e1f48aad-df96-4bce-bf61-62ae12bf3f95 | k8s-1 | fba478440cb2444a9e5cf03717eb5d6f | ACTIVE | Running |
| 725cd548-6ea3-426b-baaa-e7306d3c8052 | k8s-2 | fba478440cb2444a9e5cf03717eb5d6f | ACTIVE | Running |
Then you can use the instance ids to find the connected neutron ports (though they are now configured through using OpenStack):
openstack port list -c id -c device_id --project YOUR_PROJECT
+--------------------------------------+--------------------------------------+
| id | device_id |
+--------------------------------------+--------------------------------------+
| 5662a4e0-e646-47f0-bf88-d80fbd2d99ef | e1f48aad-df96-4bce-bf61-62ae12bf3f95 |
| e5ae2045-a1e1-4e99-9aac-4353889449a7 | 725cd548-6ea3-426b-baaa-e7306d3c8052 |
Given the port ids on the left, you can set the two allowed-address
(es) in OpenStack. Note that you have to allow both kube_service_addresses
(default 10.233.0.0/18
) and kube_pods_subnet
(default 10.233.64.0/18
.)
# allow kube_service_addresses and kube_pods_subnet network
openstack port set 5662a4e0-e646-47f0-bf88-d80fbd2d99ef --allowed-address ip-address=10.233.0.0/18 --allowed-address ip-address=10.233.64.0/18
openstack port set e5ae2045-a1e1-4e99-9aac-4353889449a7 --allowed-address ip-address=10.233.0.0/18 --allowed-address ip-address=10.233.64.0/18
If all the VMs in the tenant correspond to Kubespray deployment, you can "sweep run" above with:
openstack port list --device-owner=compute:nova -c ID -f value | xargs -tI@ openstack port set @ --allowed-address ip-address=10.233.0.0/18 --allowed-address ip-address=10.233.64.0/18
Now you can finally run the playbook.
