This page section preserves an older version of the Rancher installation documentation in which Helm 2 was used to install Rancher.
|
||||
> After Helm 3 was released, the Rancher installation instructions were updated to use Helm 3.
|
||||
>
|
||||
> If you are using Helm 2, we recommend [migrating to Helm 3](https://helm.sh/blog/migrate-from-helm-v2-to-helm-v3/) because it is simpler to use and more secure than Helm 2.
|
||||
>
|
||||
> This section provides a copy of the older instructions for installing Rancher on a Kubernetes cluster using Helm 2 in an air air gap environment, and it is intended to be used if upgrading to Helm 3 is not feasible.
|
||||
|
||||
This section is about installations of Rancher server in an air gapped environment. An air gapped environment could be where Rancher server will be installed offline, behind a firewall, or behind a proxy.
|
||||
|
||||
Throughout the installations instructions, there will be _tabs_ for either a high availability Kubernetes installation or a single-node Docker installation.
|
||||
|
||||
### Air Gapped Kubernetes Installations
|
||||
|
||||
This section covers how to install Rancher on a Kubernetes cluster in an air gapped environment.
|
||||
|
||||
A Kubernetes installation is comprised of three nodes running the Rancher server components on a Kubernetes cluster. The persistence layer (etcd) is also replicated on these three nodes, providing redundancy and data duplication in case one of the nodes fails.
|
||||
|
||||
### Air Gapped Docker Installations
|
||||
|
||||
These instructions also cover how to install Rancher on a single node in an air gapped environment.
|
||||
|
||||
The Docker installation is for Rancher users that are wanting to test out Rancher. Instead of running on a Kubernetes cluster, you install the Rancher server component on a single node using a `docker run` command. Since there is only one node and a single Docker container, if the node goes down, there is no copy of the etcd data available on other nodes and you will lose all the data of your Rancher server.
|
||||
|
||||
> **Important:** If you install Rancher following the Docker installation guide, there is no upgrade path to transition your Docker Installation to a Kubernetes Installation.
|
||||
|
||||
Instead of running the Docker installation, you have the option to follow the Kubernetes Install guide, but only use one node to install Rancher. Afterwards, you can scale up the etcd nodes in your Kubernetes cluster to make it a Kubernetes Installation.

This section is about how to prepare to launch a Kubernetes cluster which is used to deploy Rancher server for your air gapped environment.
|
||||
|
||||
Since a Kubernetes Installation requires a Kubernetes cluster, we will create a Kubernetes cluster using [Rancher Kubernetes Engine]({{<baseurl>}}/rke/latest/en/) (RKE). Before being able to start your Kubernetes cluster, you'll need to [install RKE]({{<baseurl>}}/rke/latest/en/installation/) and create a RKE config file.
|
||||

||||
- [A. Create an RKE Config File](#a-create-an-rke-config-file)
|
||||
- [B. Run RKE](#b-run-rke)
|
||||
- [C. Save Your Files](#c-save-your-files)
|
||||
|
||||
### A. Create an RKE Config File
|
||||
|
||||
From a system that can access ports 22/tcp and 6443/tcp on your host nodes, use the sample below to create a new file named `rancher-cluster.yml`. This file is a Rancher Kubernetes Engine configuration file (RKE config file), which is a configuration for the cluster you're deploying Rancher to.
|
||||
|
||||
Replace values in the code sample below with help of the _RKE Options_ table. Use the IP address or DNS names of the [3 nodes]({{<baseurl>}}/rancher/v2.x/en/installation/air-gap-high-availability/provision-hosts) you created.
|
||||
|
||||
> **Tip:** For more details on the options available, see the RKE [Config Options]({{<baseurl>}}/rke/latest/en/config-options/).

### B. Run RKE
|
||||
|
||||
After configuring `rancher-cluster.yml`, bring up your Kubernetes cluster:
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
rke up --config ./rancher-cluster.yml
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### C. Save Your Files
|
||||
|
||||
> **Important**
|
||||
> The files mentioned below are needed to maintain, troubleshoot and upgrade your cluster.
|
||||
|
||||
Save a copy of the following files in a secure location:
|
||||
|
||||
- `rancher-cluster.yml`: The RKE cluster configuration file.
|
||||
- `kube_config_rancher-cluster.yml`: The [Kubeconfig file]({{<baseurl>}}/rke/latest/en/kubeconfig/) for the cluster, this file contains credentials for full access to the cluster.
|
||||
- `rancher-cluster.rkestate`: The [Kubernetes Cluster State file]({{<baseurl>}}/rke/latest/en/installation/#kubernetes-cluster-state), this file contains credentials for full access to the cluster.<br/><br/>_The Kubernetes Cluster State file is only created when using RKE v0.2.0 or higher._

> **Prerequisites:** You must have a [private registry](https://docs.docker.com/registry/deploying/) available to use.
|
||||
>
|
||||
> **Note:** Populating the private registry with images is the same process for HA and Docker installations, the differences in this section is based on whether or not you are planning to provision a Windows cluster or not.
|
||||
|
||||
By default, all images used to [provision Kubernetes clusters]({{<baseurl>}}/rancher/v2.x/en/cluster-provisioning/) or launch any [tools]({{<baseurl>}}/rancher/v2.x/en/cluster-admin/tools/) in Rancher, e.g. monitoring, pipelines, alerts, are pulled from Docker Hub. In an air gap installation of Rancher, you will need a private registry that is located somewhere accessible by your Rancher server. Then, you will load the registry with all the images.
|
||||
|
||||
This section describes how to set up your private registry so that when you install Rancher, Rancher will pull all the required images from this registry.
|
||||
|
||||
By default, we provide the steps of how to populate your private registry assuming you are provisioning Linux only clusters, but if you plan on provisioning any [Windows clusters]({{<baseurl>}}/rancher/v2.x/en/cluster-provisioning/rke-clusters/windows-clusters/), there are separate instructions to support the images needed for a Windows cluster.
|
||||
|
||||
{{% tabs %}}
|
||||
{{% tab "Linux Only Clusters" %}}
|
||||
|
||||
For Rancher servers that will only provision Linux clusters, these are the steps to populate your private registry.
|
||||
|
||||
A. Find the required assets for your Rancher version <br>
|
||||
B. Collect all the required images <br>
|
||||
C. Save the images to your workstation <br>
|
||||
D. Populate the private registry
|
||||
|
||||
### Prerequisites
|
||||
|
||||
These steps expect you to use a Linux workstation that has internet access, access to your private registry, and at least 20 GB of disk space.
|
||||
|
||||
If you will use ARM64 hosts, the registry must support manifests. As of April 2020, Amazon Elastic Container Registry does not support manifests.
|
||||
|
||||
### A. Find the required assets for your Rancher version
|
||||
|
||||
1. Browse to our [releases page](https://github.com/rancher/rancher/releases) and find the Rancher v2.x.x release that you want to install. Don't download releases marked `rc` or `Pre-release`, as they are not stable for production environments. Click **Assets*.*
|
||||
|
||||
2. From the release's **Assets** section, download the following files:
|
||||
|
||||
| Release File | Description |
|
||||
| ---------------- | -------------- |
|
||||
| `rancher-images.txt` | This file contains a list of images needed to install Rancher, provision clusters and user Rancher tools. |
|
||||
| `rancher-save-images.sh` | This script pulls all the images in the `rancher-images.txt` from Docker Hub and saves all of the images as `rancher-images.tar.gz`. |
|
||||
| `rancher-load-images.sh` | This script loads images from the `rancher-images.tar.gz` file and pushes them to your private registry. |
|
||||
|
||||
### B. Collect all the required images (For Kubernetes Installs using Rancher Generated Self-Signed Certificate)
|
||||
|
||||
In a Kubernetes Install, if you elect to use the Rancher default self-signed TLS certificates, you must add the [`cert-manager`](https://hub.helm.sh/charts/jetstack/cert-manager) image to `rancher-images.txt` as well. You skip this step if you are using you using your own certificates.
|
||||
|
||||
1. Fetch the latest `cert-manager` Helm chart and parse the template for image details:
|
||||
|
||||
> **Note:** Recent changes to cert-manager require an upgrade. If you are upgrading Rancher and using a version of cert-manager older than v0.12.0, please see our [upgrade documentation]({{<baseurl>}}/rancher/v2.x/en/installation/options/upgrading-cert-manager/).
|
||||
|
||||
```plain
|
||||
helm repo add jetstack https://charts.jetstack.io
|
||||
helm repo update
|
||||
helm fetch jetstack/cert-manager --version v0.14.2
|
||||
helm template ./cert-manager-<version>.tgz | grep -oP '(?<=image: ").*(?=")' >> ./rancher-images.txt
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
2. Sort and unique the images list to remove any overlap between the sources:
|
||||
|
||||
```plain
|
||||
sort -u rancher-images.txt -o rancher-images.txt
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### C. Save the images to your workstation
|
||||
|
||||
1. Make `rancher-save-images.sh` an executable:
|
||||
```
|
||||
chmod +x rancher-save-images.sh
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
1. Run `rancher-save-images.sh` with the `rancher-images.txt` image list to create a tarball of all the required images:
|
||||
```plain
|
||||
./rancher-save-images.sh --image-list ./rancher-images.txt
|
||||
```
|
||||
**Result:** Docker begins pulling the images used for an air gap install. Be patient. This process takes a few minutes. When the process completes, your current directory will output a tarball named `rancher-images.tar.gz`. Check that the output is in the directory.
|
||||
|
||||
### D. Populate the private registry
|
||||
|
||||
Move the images in the `rancher-images.tar.gz` to your private registry using the scripts to load the images. The `rancher-images.txt` is expected to be on the workstation in the same directory that you are running the `rancher-load-images.sh` script.
|
||||
|
||||
1. Log into your private registry if required:
|
||||
```plain
|
||||
docker login <REGISTRY.YOURDOMAIN.COM:PORT>
|
||||
```
|
||||
1. Make `rancher-load-images.sh` an executable:
|
||||
```
|
||||
chmod +x rancher-load-images.sh
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
1. Use `rancher-load-images.sh` to extract, tag and push `rancher-images.txt` and `rancher-images.tar.gz` to your private registry:
|
||||
```plain
|
||||
./rancher-load-images.sh --image-list ./rancher-images.txt --registry <REGISTRY.YOURDOMAIN.COM:PORT>
|
||||
```
|
||||
{{% /tab %}}
|
||||
{{% tab "Linux and Windows Clusters" %}}
|
||||
|
||||
_Available as of v2.3.0_
|
||||
|
||||
For Rancher servers that will provision Linux and Windows clusters, there are distinctive steps to populate your private registry for the Windows images and the Linux images. Since a Windows cluster is a mix of Linux and Windows nodes, the Linux images pushed into the private registry are manifests.
|
||||
|
||||
### Windows Steps
|
||||
|
||||
The Windows images need to be collected and pushed from a Windows server workstation.
|
||||
|
||||
A. Find the required assets for your Rancher version <br>
|
||||
B. Save the images to your Windows Server workstation <br>
|
||||
C. Prepare the Docker daemon <br>
|
||||
D. Populate the private registry
|
||||
|
||||
{{% accordion label="Collecting and Populating Windows Images into the Private Registry"%}}
|
||||
|
||||
### Prerequisites
|
||||
|
||||
These steps expect you to use a Windows Server 1809 workstation that has internet access, access to your private registry, and at least 50 GB of disk space.
|
||||
|
||||
The workstation must have Docker 18.02+ in order to support manifests, which are required when provisioning Windows clusters.
|
||||
|
||||
Your registry must support manifests. As of April 2020, Amazon Elastic Container Registry does not support manifests.
|
||||
|
||||
### A. Find the required assets for your Rancher version
|
||||
|
||||
1. Browse to our [releases page](https://github.com/rancher/rancher/releases) and find the Rancher v2.x.x release that you want to install. Don't download releases marked `rc` or `Pre-release`, as they are not stable for production environments.
|
||||
|
||||
2. From the release's "Assets" section, download the following files:
|
||||
|
||||
| Release File | Description |
|
||||
|------------------------|-------------------|
|
||||
| `rancher-windows-images.txt` | This file contains a list of Windows images needed to provision Windows clusters. |
|
||||
| `rancher-save-images.ps1` | This script pulls all the images in the `rancher-windows-images.txt` from Docker Hub and saves all of the images as `rancher-windows-images.tar.gz`. |
|
||||
| `rancher-load-images.ps1` | This script loads the images from the `rancher-windows-images.tar.gz` file and pushes them to your private registry. |
|
||||
|
||||
### B. Save the images to your Windows Server workstation
|
||||
|
||||
1. Using `powershell`, go to the directory that has the files that were downloaded in the previous step.
|
||||
|
||||
1. Run `rancher-save-images.ps1` to create a tarball of all the required images:
|
||||
|
||||
```plain
|
||||
./rancher-save-images.ps1
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**Step Result:** Docker begins pulling the images used for an air gap install. Be patient. This process takes a few minutes. When the process completes, your current directory will output a tarball named `rancher-windows-images.tar.gz`. Check that the output is in the directory.
|
||||
|
||||
### C. Prepare the Docker daemon
|
||||
|
||||
Append your private registry address to the `allow-nondistributable-artifacts` config field in the Docker daemon (`C:\ProgramData\Docker\config\daemon.json`). Since the base image of Windows images are maintained by the `mcr.microsoft.com` registry, this step is required as the layers in the Microsoft registry are missing from Docker Hub and need to be pulled into the private registry.
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
{
|
||||
...
|
||||
"allow-nondistributable-artifacts": [
|
||||
...
|
||||
"<REGISTRY.YOURDOMAIN.COM:PORT>"
|
||||
]
|
||||
...
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### D. Populate the private registry
|
||||
|
||||
Move the images in the `rancher-windows-images.tar.gz` to your private registry using the scripts to load the images. The `rancher-windows-images.txt` is expected to be on the workstation in the same directory that you are running the `rancher-load-images.ps1` script.
|
||||
|
||||
1. Using `powershell`, log into your private registry if required:
|
||||
```plain
|
||||
docker login <REGISTRY.YOURDOMAIN.COM:PORT>
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
1. Using `powershell`, use `rancher-load-images.ps1` to extract, tag and push the images from `rancher-images.tar.gz` to your private registry:
|
||||
```plain
|
||||
./rancher-load-images.ps1 --registry <REGISTRY.YOURDOMAIN.COM:PORT>
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
{{% /accordion %}}
|
||||
|
||||
### Linux Steps
|
||||
|
||||
The Linux images needs to be collected and pushed from a Linux host, but _must be done after_ populating the Windows images into the private registry. These step are different from the Linux only steps as the Linux images that are pushed will actually manifests that support Windows and Linux images.
|
||||
|
||||
A. Find the required assets for your Rancher version <br>
|
||||
B. Collect all the required images <br>
|
||||
C. Save the images to your Linux workstation <br>
|
||||
D. Populate the private registry
|
||||
|
||||
{{% accordion label="Collecting and Populating Linux Images into the Private Registry" %}}
|
||||
|
||||
### Prerequisites
|
||||
|
||||
You must populate the private registry with the Windows images before populating the private registry with Linux images. If you have already populated the registry with Linux images, you will need to follow these instructions again as they will publish manifests that support Windows and Linux images.
|
||||
|
||||
These steps expect you to use a Linux workstation that has internet access, access to your private registry, and at least 20 GB of disk space.
|
||||
|
||||
The workstation must have Docker 18.02+ in order to support manifests, which are required when provisioning Windows clusters.
|
||||
|
||||
### A. Find the required assets for your Rancher version
|
||||
|
||||
1. Browse to our [releases page](https://github.com/rancher/rancher/releases) and find the Rancher v2.x.x release that you want to install. Don't download releases marked `rc` or `Pre-release`, as they are not stable for production environments.
|
||||
|
||||
2. From the release's **Assets** section, download the following files, which are required to install Rancher in an air gap environment:
|
||||
|
||||
| Release File | Description |
|
||||
|----------------------------|------|
|
||||
| `rancher-images.txt` | This file contains a list of images needed to install Rancher, provision clusters and user Rancher tools. |
|
||||
| `rancher-windows-images.txt` | This file contains a list of images needed to provision Windows clusters. |
|
||||
| `rancher-save-images.sh` | This script pulls all the images in the `rancher-images.txt` from Docker Hub and saves all of the images as `rancher-images.tar.gz`. |
|
||||
| `rancher-load-images.sh` | This script loads images from the `rancher-images.tar.gz` file and pushes them to your private registry. |
|
||||
|
||||
### B. Collect all the required images
|
||||
|
||||
**For Kubernetes Installs using Rancher Generated Self-Signed Certificate:** In a Kubernetes Install, if you elect to use the Rancher default self-signed TLS certificates, you must add the [`cert-manager`](https://hub.helm.sh/charts/jetstack/cert-manager) image to `rancher-images.txt` as well. You skip this step if you are using you using your own certificates.
|
||||
|
||||
1. Fetch the latest `cert-manager` Helm chart and parse the template for image details:
|
||||
> **Note:** Recent changes to cert-manager require an upgrade. If you are upgrading Rancher and using a version of cert-manager older than v0.12.0, please see our [upgrade documentation]({{<baseurl>}}/rancher/v2.x/en/installation/options/upgrading-cert-manager/).
|
||||
```plain
|
||||
helm repo add jetstack https://charts.jetstack.io
|
||||
helm repo update
|
||||
helm fetch jetstack/cert-manager --version v0.14.2
|
||||
helm template ./cert-manager-<version>.tgz | grep -oP '(?<=image: ").*(?=")' >> ./rancher-images.txt
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
2. Sort and unique the images list to remove any overlap between the sources:
|
||||
```plain
|
||||
sort -u rancher-images.txt -o rancher-images.txt
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### C. Save the images to your workstation
|
||||
|
||||
1. Make `rancher-save-images.sh` an executable:
|
||||
```
|
||||
chmod +x rancher-save-images.sh
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
1. Run `rancher-save-images.sh` with the `rancher-images.txt` image list to create a tarball of all the required images:
|
||||
```plain
|
||||
./rancher-save-images.sh --image-list ./rancher-images.txt
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**Result:** Docker begins pulling the images used for an air gap install. Be patient. This process takes a few minutes. When the process completes, your current directory will output a tarball named `rancher-images.tar.gz`. Check that the output is in the directory.
|
||||
|
||||
### D. Populate the private registry
|
||||
|
||||
Move the images in the `rancher-images.tar.gz` to your private registry using the `rancher-load-images.sh script` to load the images. The `rancher-images.txt` / `rancher-windows-images.txt` image list is expected to be on the workstation in the same directory that you are running the `rancher-load-images.sh` script.
|
||||
|
||||
1. Log into your private registry if required:
|
||||
```plain
|
||||
docker login <REGISTRY.YOURDOMAIN.COM:PORT>
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
1. Make `rancher-load-images.sh` an executable:
|
||||
```
|
||||
chmod +x rancher-load-images.sh
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
1. Use `rancher-load-images.sh` to extract, tag and push the images from `rancher-images.tar.gz` to your private registry:
|

{{% tab "Kubernetes Install (Recommended)" %}}
|
||||
|
||||
Rancher recommends installing Rancher on a Kubernetes cluster. A highly available Kubernetes install is comprised of three nodes running the Rancher server components on a Kubernetes cluster. The persistence layer (etcd) is also replicated on these three nodes, providing redundancy and data duplication in case one of the nodes fails.
|
||||
|
||||
### Recommended Architecture
|
||||
|
||||
- DNS for Rancher should resolve to a layer 4 load balancer
|
||||
- The Load Balancer should forward port TCP/80 and TCP/443 to all 3 nodes in the Kubernetes cluster.
|
||||
- The Ingress controller will redirect HTTP to HTTPS and terminate SSL/TLS on port TCP/443.
|
||||
- The Ingress controller will forward traffic to port TCP/80 on the pod in the Rancher deployment.
|
||||
|
||||
<figcaption>Rancher installed on a Kubernetes cluster with layer 4 load balancer, depicting SSL termination at ingress controllers</figcaption>
|
||||
|
||||

|
||||
|
||||
### A. Provision three air gapped Linux hosts according to our requirements
|
||||
|
||||
These hosts will be disconnected from the internet, but require being able to connect with your private registry.
|
||||
|
||||
View hardware and software requirements for each of your cluster nodes in [Requirements]({{<baseurl>}}/rancher/v2.x/en/installation/requirements).
|
||||
|
||||
### B. Set up your Load Balancer
|
||||
|
||||
When setting up the Kubernetes cluster that will run the Rancher server components, an Ingress controller pod will be deployed on each of your nodes. The Ingress controller pods are bound to ports TCP/80 and TCP/443 on the host network and are the entry point for HTTPS traffic to the Rancher server.
|
||||
|
||||
You will need to configure a load balancer as a basic Layer 4 TCP forwarder to direct traffic to these ingress controller pods. The exact configuration will vary depending on your environment.
|
||||
|
||||
> **Important:**
|
||||
> Only use this load balancer (i.e, the `local` cluster Ingress) to load balance the Rancher server. Sharing this Ingress with other applications may result in websocket errors to Rancher following Ingress configuration reloads for other apps.
|
||||
|
||||
**Load Balancer Configuration Samples:**
|
||||
|
||||
- For an example showing how to set up an NGINX load balancer, refer to [this page.]({{<baseurl>}}/rancher/v2.x/en/installation/options/nginx)
|
||||
- For an example showing how to set up an Amazon NLB load balancer, refer to [this page.]({{<baseurl>}}/rancher/v2.x/en/installation/options/nlb)
|
||||
|
||||
{{% /tab %}}
|
||||
{{% tab "Docker Install" %}}
|
||||
|
||||
The Docker installation is for Rancher users that are wanting to test out Rancher. Instead of running on a Kubernetes cluster, you install the Rancher server component on a single node using a `docker run` command. Since there is only one node and a single Docker container, if the node goes down, there is no copy of the etcd data available on other nodes and you will lose all the data of your Rancher server.
|
||||
|
||||
> **Important:** If you install Rancher following the Docker installation guide, there is no upgrade path to transition your Docker installation to a Kubernetes Installation.
|
||||
|
||||
Instead of running the Docker installation, you have the option to follow the Kubernetes Install guide, but only use one node to install Rancher. Afterwards, you can scale up the etcd nodes in your Kubernetes cluster to make it a Kubernetes Installation.

This section preserves an older version of the Rancher installation documentation that used Helm 2.
|

> After Helm 3 was released, the Rancher installation instructions were updated to use Helm 3.
|

>
|

>
|

> This section provides a copy of the older high-availability Kubernetes Rancher installation instructions that used Helm 2, and it is intended to be used if upgrading to Helm 3 is not feasible.
|
||||
|
||||
For production environments, we recommend installing Rancher in a high-availability configuration so that your user base can always access Rancher Server. When installed in a Kubernetes cluster, Rancher will integrate with the cluster's etcd database and take advantage of Kubernetes scheduling for high-availability.
|
||||
|
||||
This procedure walks you through setting up a 3-node cluster with Rancher Kubernetes Engine (RKE) and installing the Rancher chart with the Helm package manager.
|
||||
|
||||
> **Important:** The Rancher management server can only be run on an RKE-managed Kubernetes cluster. Use of Rancher on hosted Kubernetes or other providers is not supported.
|
||||
|
||||
> **Important:** For the best performance, we recommend a dedicated Kubernetes cluster for the Rancher management server. Running user workloads on this cluster is not advised. After deploying Rancher, you can [create or import clusters]({{<baseurl>}}/rancher/v2.x/en/cluster-provisioning/#cluster-creation-in-rancher) for running your workloads.
|
||||
|
||||
## Recommended Architecture
|
||||
|
||||
- DNS for Rancher should resolve to a Layer 4 load balancer (TCP)
|
||||
- The Load Balancer should forward port TCP/80 and TCP/443 to all 3 nodes in the Kubernetes cluster.
|
||||
- The Ingress controller will redirect HTTP to HTTPS and terminate SSL/TLS on port TCP/443.
|
||||
- The Ingress controller will forward traffic to port TCP/80 on the pod in the Rancher deployment.

Use your provider of choice to provision 3 nodes and a Load Balancer endpoint for your RKE install.
|

### Node Requirements
|
||||
|
||||
View the supported operating systems and hardware/software/networking requirements for nodes running Rancher at [Node Requirements]({{<baseurl>}}/rancher/v2.x/en/installation/requirements).

|
||||
|
||||
### Load Balancer
|
||||
|
||||
RKE will configure an Ingress controller pod, on each of your nodes. The Ingress controller pods are bound to ports TCP/80 and TCP/443 on the host network and are the entry point for HTTPS traffic to the Rancher server.
|
||||
|
||||
Configure a load balancer as a basic Layer 4 TCP forwarder. The exact configuration will vary depending on your environment.
|
||||
|
||||
>**Important:**
|
||||
>Do not use this load balancer (i.e, the `local` cluster Ingress) to load balance applications other than Rancher following installation. Sharing this Ingress with other applications may result in websocket errors to Rancher following Ingress configuration reloads for other apps. We recommend dedicating the `local` cluster to Rancher and no other applications.

NGINX will be configured as Layer 4 load balancer (TCP) that forwards connections to one of your Rancher nodes.
|
||||
|
||||
>**Note:**
|
||||
> In this configuration, the load balancer is positioned in front of your nodes. The load balancer can be any host capable of running NGINX.
|
||||
>
|
||||
> One caveat: do not use one of your Rancher nodes as the load balancer.
|
||||
|
||||
## Install NGINX
|
||||
|
||||
Start by installing NGINX on the node you want to use as a load balancer. NGINX has packages available for all known operating systems. The versions tested are `1.14` and `1.15`. For help installing NGINX, refer to their [install documentation](https://www.nginx.com/resources/wiki/start/topics/tutorials/install/).
|
||||
|
||||
The `stream` module is required, which is present when using the official NGINX packages. Please refer to your OS documentation on how to install and enable the NGINX `stream` module on your operating system.
|
||||
|
||||
## Create NGINX Configuration
|
||||
|
||||
After installing NGINX, you need to update the NGINX configuration file, `nginx.conf`, with the IP addresses for your nodes.
|
||||
|
||||
1. Copy and paste the code sample below into your favorite text editor. Save it as `nginx.conf`.
|
||||
|
||||
2. From `nginx.conf`, replace both occurrences (port 80 and port 443) of `<IP_NODE_1>`, `<IP_NODE_2>`, and `<IP_NODE_3>` with the IPs of your [nodes]({{<baseurl>}}/rancher/v2.x/en/installation/options/helm2/create-nodes-lb/).
|
||||
|
||||
>**Note:** See [NGINX Documentation: TCP and UDP Load Balancing](https://docs.nginx.com/nginx/admin-guide/load-balancer/tcp-udp-load-balancer/) for all configuration options.

}
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
3. Save `nginx.conf` to your load balancer at the following path: `/etc/nginx/nginx.conf`.
|
||||
|
||||
4. Load the updates to your NGINX configuration by running the following command:
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
# nginx -s reload
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## Option - Run NGINX as Docker container
|
||||
|
||||
Instead of installing NGINX as a package on the operating system, you can rather run it as a Docker container. Save the edited **Example NGINX config** as `/etc/nginx.conf` and run the following command to launch the NGINX container:
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
docker run -d --restart=unless-stopped \
|
||||
-p 80:80 -p 443:443 \
|
||||
-v /etc/nginx.conf:/etc/nginx/nginx.conf \

|

## Objectives
|
||||
|
||||
Configuring an Amazon NLB is a multistage process. We've broken it down into multiple tasks so that it's easy to follow.
|
||||
|
||||
1. [Create Target Groups](#create-target-groups)
|
||||
|
||||
Begin by creating two target groups for the **TCP** protocol, one regarding TCP port 443 and one regarding TCP port 80 (providing redirect to TCP port 443). You'll add your Linux nodes to these groups.
|
||||
|
||||
2. [Register Targets](#register-targets)
|
||||
|
||||
Add your Linux nodes to the target groups.
|
||||
|
||||
3. [Create Your NLB](#create-your-nlb)
|
||||
|
||||
Use Amazon's Wizard to create an Network Load Balancer. As part of this process, you'll add the target groups you created in **1. Create Target Groups**.
|
||||
|
||||
> **Note:** Rancher only supports using the Amazon NLB when terminating traffic in `tcp` mode for port 443 rather than `tls` mode. This is due to the fact that the NLB does not inject the correct headers into requests when terminated at the NLB. This means that if you want to use certificates managed by the Amazon Certificate Manager (ACM), you should use an ELB or ALB.
|
||||
|
||||
## Create Target Groups
|
||||
|
||||
Your first NLB configuration step is to create two target groups. Technically, only port 443 is needed to access Rancher, but its convenient to add a listener for port 80 which will be redirected to port 443 automatically. The NGINX ingress controller on the nodes will make sure that port 80 gets redirected to port 443.
|
||||
|
||||
Log into the [Amazon AWS Console](https://console.aws.amazon.com/ec2/) to get started, make sure to select the **Region** where your EC2 instances (Linux nodes) are created.
|
||||
|
||||
The Target Groups configuration resides in the **Load Balancing** section of the **EC2** service. Select **Services** and choose **EC2**, find the section **Load Balancing** and open **Target Groups**.
|
||||
|
||||
{{< img "/img/rancher/ha/nlb/ec2-loadbalancing.png" "EC2 Load Balancing section">}}
|
||||
|
||||
Click **Create target group** to create the first target group, regarding TCP port 443.
|
||||
|
||||
### Target Group (TCP port 443)

|
||||
|
||||
When the instances are added, click **Save** on the bottom right of the screen.
|
||||
|
||||
Repeat those steps, replacing **rancher-tcp-443** with **rancher-tcp-80**. The same instances need to be added as targets to this target group.
|
||||
|
||||
## Create Your NLB
|
||||
|
||||
Use Amazon's Wizard to create an Network Load Balancer. As part of this process, you'll add the target groups you created in [Create Target Groups](#create-target-groups).
|
||||
|
||||
1. From your web browser, navigate to the [Amazon EC2 Console](https://console.aws.amazon.com/ec2/).
|
||||
|
||||
2. From the navigation pane, choose **LOAD BALANCING** > **Load Balancers**.
|
||||
|
||||
3. Click **Create Load Balancer**.
|
||||
|
||||
4. Choose **Network Load Balancer** and click **Create**.
|
||||
|
||||
5. Complete the **Step 1: Configure Load Balancer** form.
|
||||
- **Basic Configuration**
|
||||
|
||||
- Name: `rancher`
|
||||
- Scheme: `internal` or `internet-facing`
|
||||
|
||||
The Scheme that you choose for your NLB is dependent on the configuration of your instances/VPC. If your instances do not have public IPs associated with them, or you will only be accessing Rancher internally, you should set your NLB Scheme to `internal` rather than `internet-facing`.
|
||||
- **Listeners**
|
||||
|
||||
Add the **Load Balancer Protocols** and **Load Balancer Ports** below.
|
||||
- `TCP`: `443`
|
||||
|
||||
- **Availability Zones**
|
||||
|
||||
- Select Your **VPC** and **Availability Zones**.
|
||||
|
||||
6. Complete the **Step 2: Configure Routing** form.
|
||||
|
||||
- From the **Target Group** drop-down, choose **Existing target group**.
|
||||
|
||||
- From the **Name** drop-down, choose `rancher-tcp-443`.
|
||||
|
||||
- Open **Advanced health check settings**, and configure **Interval** to `10 seconds`.
|
||||
|
||||
7. Complete **Step 3: Register Targets**. Since you registered your targets earlier, all you have to do is click **Next: Review**.
|
||||
|
||||
8. Complete **Step 4: Review**. Look over the load balancer details and click **Create** when you're satisfied.
|
||||
|
||||
9. After AWS creates the NLB, click **Close**.
|
||||
|
||||
## Add listener to NLB for TCP port 80
|
||||
|
||||
1. Select your newly created NLB and select the **Listeners** tab.
|
||||
|
||||
2. Click **Add listener**.
|
||||
|
||||
3. Use `TCP`:`80` as **Protocol** : **Port**
|
||||
|
||||
4. Click **Add action** and choose **Forward to...**
|
||||
|
||||
5. From the **Forward to** drop-down, choose `rancher-tcp-80`.
|
||||
|
||||
6. Click **Save** in the top right of the screen.

Helm is the package management tool of choice for Kubernetes. Helm "charts" provide templating syntax for Kubernetes YAML manifest documents. With Helm we can create configurable deployments instead of just using static files. For more information about creating your own catalog of deployments, check out the docs at [https://helm.sh/](https://helm.sh/). To be able to use Helm, the server-side component `tiller` needs to be installed on your cluster.

### Helm commands show forbidden
|
||||
|
||||
When Helm is initiated in the cluster without specifying the correct `ServiceAccount`, the command `helm init` will succeed but you won't be able to execute most of the other `helm` commands. The following error will be shown:
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
Error: configmaps is forbidden: User "system:serviceaccount:kube-system:default" cannot list configmaps in the namespace "kube-system"
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
To resolve this, the server component (`tiller`) needs to be removed and added with the correct `ServiceAccount`. You can use `helm reset --force` to remove the `tiller` from the cluster. Please check if it is removed using `helm version --server`.
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
helm reset --force
|
||||
Tiller (the Helm server-side component) has been uninstalled from your Kubernetes Cluster.
|
||||
helm version --server
|
||||
Error: could not find tiller
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
When you have confirmed that `tiller` has been removed, please follow the steps provided in [Initialize Helm (Install tiller)]({{<baseurl>}}/rancher/v2.x/en/installation/options/helm2/helm-init/) to install `tiller` with the correct `ServiceAccount`.

### API Audit Log
|
||||
|
||||
Enabling the [API Audit Log]({{<baseurl>}}/rancher/v2.x/en/installation/api-auditing/).
|
||||
|
||||
You can collect this log as you would any container log. Enable the [Logging service under Rancher Tools]({{<baseurl>}}/rancher/v2.x/en/cluster-admin/tools/logging/) for the `System` Project on the Rancher server cluster.
|
||||
|
||||
```plain
|
||||
--set auditLog.level=1
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
By default enabling Audit Logging will create a sidecar container in the Rancher pod. This container (`rancher-audit-log`) will stream the log to `stdout`. You can collect this log as you would any container log. When using the sidecar as the audit log destination, the `hostPath`, `maxAge`, `maxBackups`, and `maxSize` options do not apply. It's advised to use your OS or Docker daemon's log rotation features to control disk space use. Enable the [Logging service under Rancher Tools]({{<baseurl>}}/rancher/v2.x/en/cluster-admin/tools/logging/) for the Rancher server cluster or System Project.
|
||||
|
||||
Set the `auditLog.destination` to `hostPath` to forward logs to volume shared with the host system instead of streaming to a sidecar container. When setting the destination to `hostPath` you may want to adjust the other auditLog parameters for log rotation.
|
||||
|
||||
### Setting Extra Environment Variables
|
||||
|
||||
_Available as of v2.2.0_
|
||||
|
||||
You can set extra environment variables for Rancher server using `extraEnv`. This list uses the same `name` and `value` keys as the container manifest definitions. Remember to quote the values.
|
||||
|
||||
```plain
|
||||
--set 'extraEnv[0].name=CATTLE_TLS_MIN_VERSION'
|
||||
--set 'extraEnv[0].value=1.0'
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### TLS settings
|
||||
|
||||
_Available as of v2.2.0_
|
||||
|
||||
To set a different TLS configuration, you can use the `CATTLE_TLS_MIN_VERSION` and `CATTLE_TLS_CIPHERS` environment variables. For example, to configure TLS 1.0 as minimum accepted TLS version:
|
||||
|
||||
```plain
|
||||
--set 'extraEnv[0].name=CATTLE_TLS_MIN_VERSION'
|
||||
--set 'extraEnv[0].value=1.0'
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
See [TLS settings]({{<baseurl>}}/rancher/v2.x/en/admin-settings/tls-settings) for more information and options.
|
||||
|
||||
### Import `local` Cluster
|
||||
|
||||
By default Rancher server will detect and import the `local` cluster it's running on. User with access to the `local` cluster will essentially have "root" access to all the clusters managed by Rancher server.
|
||||
|
||||
If this is a concern in your environment you can set this option to "false" on your initial install.
|
||||
|
||||
> Note: This option is only effective on the initial Rancher install. See [Issue 16522](https://github.com/rancher/rancher/issues/16522) for more information.
|
||||
|
||||
```plain
|
||||
--set addLocal="false"
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Customizing your Ingress
|
||||
|
||||
To customize or use a different ingress with Rancher server you can set your own Ingress annotations.
|
||||
|
||||
Example on setting a custom certificate issuer:
|
||||
|
||||
```plain
|
||||
--set ingress.extraAnnotations.'certmanager\.k8s\.io/cluster-issuer'=ca-key-pair
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
_Available as of v2.0.15, v2.1.10 and v2.2.4_
|
||||
|
||||
Example on setting a static proxy header with `ingress.configurationSnippet`. This value is parsed like a template so variables can be used.
|
||||
|
||||
```plain
|
||||
--set ingress.configurationSnippet='more_set_input_headers X-Forwarded-Host {{ .Values.hostname }};'
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### HTTP Proxy
|
||||
|
||||
Rancher requires internet access for some functionality (helm charts). Use `proxy` to set your proxy server.
|
||||
|
||||
Add your IP exceptions to the `noProxy` list. Make sure you add the Service cluster IP range (default: 10.43.0.1/16) and any worker cluster `controlplane` nodes. Rancher supports CIDR notation ranges in this list.
|
||||
|
||||
```plain
|
||||
--set proxy="http://<username>:<password>@<proxy_url>:<proxy_port>/"
|
||||
--set noProxy="127.0.0.0/8\,10.0.0.0/8\,172.16.0.0/12\,192.168.0.0/16"
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Additional Trusted CAs
|
||||
|
||||
If you have private registries, catalogs or a proxy that intercepts certificates, you may need to add additional trusted CAs to Rancher.
|
||||
|
||||
```plain
|
||||
--set additionalTrustedCAs=true
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Once the Rancher deployment is created, copy your CA certs in pem format into a file named `ca-additional.pem` and use `kubectl` to create the `tls-ca-additional` secret in the `cattle-system` namespace.
|
||||
|
||||
```plain
|
||||
kubectl -n cattle-system create secret generic tls-ca-additional --from-file=ca-additional.pem
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Private Registry and Air Gap Installs
|
||||
|
||||
For details on installing Rancher with a private registry, see:
|
||||
|
||||
- [Air Gap: Docker Install]({{<baseurl>}}/rancher/v2.x/en/installation/air-gap-single-node/)
|
||||
- [Air Gap: Kubernetes Install]({{<baseurl>}}/rancher/v2.x/en/installation/air-gap-high-availability/)
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
### External TLS Termination
|
||||
|
||||
We recommend configuring your load balancer as a Layer 4 balancer, forwarding plain 80/tcp and 443/tcp to the Rancher Management cluster nodes. The Ingress Controller on the cluster will redirect http traffic on port 80 to https on port 443.
|
||||
|
||||
You may terminate the SSL/TLS on a L7 load balancer external to the Rancher cluster (ingress). Use the `--set tls=external` option and point your load balancer at port http 80 on all of the Rancher cluster nodes. This will expose the Rancher interface on http port 80. Be aware that clients that are allowed to connect directly to the Rancher cluster will not be encrypted. If you choose to do this we recommend that you restrict direct access at the network level to just your load balancer.
|
||||
|
||||
> **Note:** If you are using a Private CA signed certificate, add `--set privateCA=true` and see [Adding TLS Secrets - Using a Private CA Signed Certificate]({{<baseurl>}}/rancher/v2.x/en/installation/options/helm2/helm-rancher/tls-secrets/#using-a-private-ca-signed-certificate) to add the CA cert for Rancher.
|
||||
|
||||
Your load balancer must support long lived websocket connections and will need to insert proxy headers so Rancher can route links correctly.
|
||||
|
||||
#### Configuring Ingress for External TLS when Using NGINX v0.25
|
||||
|
||||
In NGINX v0.25, the behavior of NGINX has [changed](https://github.com/kubernetes/ingress-nginx/blob/master/Changelog.md#0220) regarding forwarding headers and external TLS termination. Therefore, in the scenario that you are using external TLS termination configuration with NGINX v0.25, you must edit the `cluster.yml` to enable the `use-forwarded-headers` option for ingress:
|
||||
|
||||
```yaml
|
||||
ingress:
|
||||
provider: nginx
|
||||
options:
|
||||
use-forwarded-headers: "true"
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
#### Required Headers
|
||||
|
||||
* `Host`
|
||||
* `X-Forwarded-Proto`
|
||||
* `X-Forwarded-Port`
|
||||
* `X-Forwarded-For`
|
||||
|
||||
#### Recommended Timeouts
|
||||
|
||||
* Read Timeout: `1800 seconds`
|
||||
* Write Timeout: `1800 seconds`
|
||||
* Connect Timeout: `30 seconds`
|
||||
|
||||
#### Health Checks
|
||||
|
||||
Rancher will respond `200` to health checks on the `/healthz` endpoint.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
#### Example NGINX config
|
||||
|
||||
This NGINX configuration is tested on NGINX 1.14.
|
||||
|
||||
>**Note:** This NGINX configuration is only an example and may not suit your environment. For complete documentation, see [NGINX Load Balancing - HTTP Load Balancing](https://docs.nginx.com/nginx/admin-guide/load-balancer/http-load-balancer/).
|
||||
|
||||
* Replace `IP_NODE1`, `IP_NODE2` and `IP_NODE3` with the IP addresses of the nodes in your cluster.
|
||||
* Replace both occurrences of `FQDN` to the DNS name for Rancher.
|
||||
* Replace `/certs/fullchain.pem` and `/certs/privkey.pem` to the location of the server certificate and the server certificate key respectively.

|

Kubernetes will create all the objects and services for Rancher, but it will not become available until we populate the `tls-rancher-ingress` secret in the `cattle-system` namespace with the certificate and key.
|
||||
|
||||
Combine the server certificate followed by any intermediate certificate(s) needed into a file named `tls.crt`. Copy your certificate key into a file named `tls.key`.
|
||||
|
||||
Use `kubectl` with the `tls` secret type to create the secrets.
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
kubectl -n cattle-system create secret tls tls-rancher-ingress \
|
||||
--cert=tls.crt \
|
||||
--key=tls.key
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
> **Note:** If you want to replace the certificate, you can delete the `tls-rancher-ingress` secret using `kubectl -n cattle-system delete secret tls-rancher-ingress` and add a new one using the command shown above. If you are using a private CA signed certificate, replacing the certificate is only possible if the new certificate is signed by the same CA as the certificate currently in use.
|
||||
|
||||
### Using a Private CA Signed Certificate
|
||||
|
||||
If you are using a private CA, Rancher requires a copy of the CA certificate which is used by the Rancher Agent to validate the connection to the server.
|
||||
|
||||
Copy the CA certificate into a file named `cacerts.pem` and use `kubectl` to create the `tls-ca` secret in the `cattle-system` namespace.
|
||||
|
||||
>**Important:** Make sure the file is called `cacerts.pem` as Rancher uses that filename to configure the CA certificate.
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
kubectl -n cattle-system create secret generic tls-ca \
|
||||
--from-file=cacerts.pem

### Where is everything
|
||||
|
||||
Most of the troubleshooting will be done on objects in these 3 namespaces.
|
||||
|
||||
* `cattle-system` - `rancher` deployment and pods.
|
||||
* `ingress-nginx` - Ingress controller pods and services.
|
||||
* `kube-system` - `tiller` and `cert-manager` pods.
|
||||
|
||||
### "default backend - 404"
|
||||
|
||||
A number of things can cause the ingress-controller not to forward traffic to your rancher instance. Most of the time its due to a bad ssl configuration.
|
||||
|
||||
Things to check
|
||||
|
||||
* [Is Rancher Running](#is-rancher-running)
|
||||
* [Cert CN is "Kubernetes Ingress Controller Fake Certificate"](#cert-cn-is-kubernetes-ingress-controller-fake-certificate)
|
||||
|
||||
### Is Rancher Running
|
||||
|
||||
Use `kubectl` to check the `cattle-system` system namespace and see if the Rancher pods are in a Running state.
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
kubectl -n cattle-system get pods

|

If the state is not `Running`, run a `describe` on the pod and check the Events.
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
kubectl -n cattle-system describe pod

|

|
||||
### Checking the rancher logs
|
||||
|
||||
Use `kubectl` to list the pods.
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
kubectl -n cattle-system get pods
|
||||
|
||||
NAME READY STATUS RESTARTS AGE
|
||||
pod/rancher-784d94f59b-vgqzh 1/1 Running 0 10m
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Use `kubectl` and the pod name to list the logs from the pod.
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
kubectl -n cattle-system logs -f rancher-784d94f59b-vgqzh
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Cert CN is "Kubernetes Ingress Controller Fake Certificate"
|
||||
|
||||
Use your browser to check the certificate details. If it says the Common Name is "Kubernetes Ingress Controller Fake Certificate", something may have gone wrong with reading or issuing your SSL cert.
|
||||
|
||||
> **Note:** if you are using LetsEncrypt to issue certs it can sometimes take a few minuets to issue the cert.
|
||||
|
||||
#### cert-manager issued certs (Rancher Generated or LetsEncrypt)
|
||||
|
||||
`cert-manager` has 3 parts.
|
||||
|
||||
* `cert-manager` pod in the `kube-system` namespace.
|
||||
* `Issuer` object in the `cattle-system` namespace.
|
||||
* `Certificate` object in the `cattle-system` namespace.
|
||||
|
||||
Work backwards and do a `kubectl describe` on each object and check the events. You can track down what might be missing.
|
||||
|
||||
For example there is a problem with the Issuer:
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
kubectl -n cattle-system describe certificate
|
||||
...
|
||||
Events:
|
||||
Type Reason Age From Message
|
||||
---- ------ ---- ---- -------
|
||||
Warning IssuerNotReady 18s (x23 over 19m) cert-manager Issuer rancher not ready
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
kubectl -n cattle-system describe issuer
|
||||
...
|
||||
Events:
|
||||
Type Reason Age From Message
|
||||
---- ------ ---- ---- -------
|
||||
Warning ErrInitIssuer 19m (x12 over 19m) cert-manager Error initializing issuer: secret "tls-rancher" not found
|
||||
Warning ErrGetKeyPair 9m (x16 over 19m) cert-manager Error getting keypair for CA issuer: secret "tls-rancher" not found
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
#### Bring Your Own SSL Certs
|
||||
|
||||
Your certs get applied directly to the Ingress object in the `cattle-system` namespace.
|
||||
|
||||
Check the status of the Ingress object and see if its ready.
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
kubectl -n cattle-system describe ingress
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
If its ready and the SSL is still not working you may have a malformed cert or secret.
|
||||
|
||||
Check the nginx-ingress-controller logs. Because the nginx-ingress-controller has multiple containers in its pod you will need to specify the name of the container.
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
kubectl -n ingress-nginx logs -f nginx-ingress-controller-rfjrq nginx-ingress-controller
|
||||
...
|
||||

Use RKE to install Kubernetes with a high availability etcd configuration.
|
||||
|
||||
>**Note:** For systems without direct internet access see [Air Gap: Kubernetes install]({{<baseurl>}}/rancher/v2.x/en/installation/air-gap-high-availability/) for install details.
|
||||
|
||||
### Create the `rancher-cluster.yml` File
|
||||
|
||||
Using the sample below create the `rancher-cluster.yml` file. Replace the IP Addresses in the `nodes` list with the IP address or DNS names of the 3 nodes you created.
|
||||
|
||||
> **Note:** If your node has public and internal addresses, it is recommended to set the `internal_address:` so Kubernetes will use it for intra-cluster communication. Some services like AWS EC2 require setting the `internal_address:` if you want to use self-referencing security groups or firewalls.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
```yaml
|
||||
nodes:
|
||||
- address: 165.227.114.63
|
||||
internal_address: 172.16.22.12
|
||||
user: ubuntu
|
||||
role: [controlplane,worker,etcd]
|
||||
- address: 165.227.116.167
|
||||
internal_address: 172.16.32.37
|
||||
user: ubuntu
|
||||
role: [controlplane,worker,etcd]
|
||||
- address: 165.227.127.226
|
||||
internal_address: 172.16.42.73
|
||||
user: ubuntu
|
||||
role: [controlplane,worker,etcd]
|
||||
|
||||
services:
|
||||
etcd:
|
||||
snapshot: true
|
||||
creation: 6h
|
||||
retention: 24h
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
#### Common RKE Nodes Options
|
||||
|
||||
| Option | Required | Description |
|
||||
| --- | --- | --- |
|
||||
| `address` | yes | The public DNS or IP address |
|
||||
| `user` | yes | A user that can run docker commands |
|
||||
| `role` | yes | List of Kubernetes roles assigned to the node |
|
||||
| `internal_address` | no | The private DNS or IP address for internal cluster traffic |
|
||||
| `ssh_key_path` | no | Path to SSH private key used to authenticate to the node (defaults to `~/.ssh/id_rsa`) |
|
||||
|
||||
#### Advanced Configurations
|
||||
|
||||
RKE has many configuration options for customizing the install to suit your specific environment.
|
||||
|
||||
Please see the [RKE Documentation]({{<baseurl>}}/rke/latest/en/config-options/) for the full list of options and capabilities.
|
||||
|
||||
For tuning your etcd cluster for larger Rancher installations see the [etcd settings guide]({{<baseurl>}}/rancher/v2.x/en/installation/options/etcd/).
|
||||
|
||||
### Run RKE
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
rke up --config ./rancher-cluster.yml
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
When finished, it should end with the line: `Finished building Kubernetes cluster successfully`.
|
||||
|
||||
### Testing Your Cluster
|
||||
|
||||
RKE should have created a file `kube_config_rancher-cluster.yml`. This file has the credentials for `kubectl` and `helm`.
|
||||
|
||||
> **Note:** If you have used a different file name from `rancher-cluster.yml`, then the kube config file will be named `kube_config_<FILE_NAME>.yml`.
|
||||
|
||||
You can copy this file to `$HOME/.kube/config` or if you are working with multiple Kubernetes clusters, set the `KUBECONFIG` environmental variable to the path of `kube_config_rancher-cluster.yml`.
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
export KUBECONFIG=$(pwd)/kube_config_rancher-cluster.yml
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Test your connectivity with `kubectl` and see if all your nodes are in `Ready` state.
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
kubectl get nodes
|
||||
|
||||
NAME STATUS ROLES AGE VERSION
|
||||
165.227.114.63 Ready controlplane,etcd,worker 11m v1.13.5
|
||||
165.227.116.167 Ready controlplane,etcd,worker 11m v1.13.5
|
||||
165.227.127.226 Ready controlplane,etcd,worker 11m v1.13.5
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Check the Health of Your Cluster Pods
|
||||
|
||||
Check that all the required pods and containers are healthy are ready to continue.
|
||||
|
||||
* Pods are in `Running` or `Completed` state.
|
||||
* `READY` column shows all the containers are running (i.e. `3/3`) for pods with `STATUS` `Running`
|
||||
* Pods with `STATUS` `Completed` are run-once Jobs. For these pods `READY` should be `0/1`.
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
kubectl get pods --all-namespaces

### Save Your Files
|
||||
|
||||
> **Important**
|
||||
> The files mentioned below are needed to maintain, troubleshoot and upgrade your cluster.
|
||||
|
||||
Save a copy of the following files in a secure location:
|
||||
|
||||
- `rancher-cluster.yml`: The RKE cluster configuration file.
|
||||
- `kube_config_rancher-cluster.yml`: The [Kubeconfig file]({{<baseurl>}}/rke/latest/en/kubeconfig/) for the cluster, this file contains credentials for full access to the cluster.
|
||||
- `rancher-cluster.rkestate`: The [Kubernetes Cluster State file]({{<baseurl>}}/rke/latest/en/installation/#kubernetes-cluster-state), this file contains credentials for full access to the cluster.<br/><br/>_The Kubernetes Cluster State file is only created when using RKE v0.2.0 or higher._
|
||||
|
||||
> **Note:** The "rancher-cluster" parts of the two latter file names are dependent on how you name the RKE cluster configuration file.

### canal Pods show READY 2/3
|
||||
|
||||
The most common cause of this issue is port 8472/UDP is not open between the nodes. Check your local firewall, network routing or security groups.
|
||||
|
||||
Once the network issue is resolved, the `canal` pods should timeout and restart to establish their connections.
|
||||
|
||||
### nginx-ingress-controller Pods show RESTARTS
|
||||
|
||||
The most common cause of this issue is the `canal` pods have failed to establish the overlay network. See [canal Pods show READY `2/3`](#canal-pods-show-ready-2-3) for troubleshooting.

#### Failed to dial to /var/run/docker.sock: ssh: rejected: administratively prohibited (open failed)
|
||||
|
||||
* User specified to connect with does not have permission to access the Docker socket. This can be checked by logging into the host and running the command `docker ps`:
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
$ ssh user@server
|
||||
user@server$ docker ps
|
||||
CONTAINER ID IMAGE COMMAND CREATED STATUS PORTS NAMES
|

```
|
||||
|
||||
See [Manage Docker as a non-root user](https://docs.docker.com/install/linux/linux-postinstall/#manage-docker-as-a-non-root-user) how to set this up properly.
|
||||
|
||||
* When using RedHat/CentOS as operating system, you cannot use the user `root` to connect to the nodes because of [Bugzilla #1527565](https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1527565). You will need to add a separate user and configure it to access the Docker socket. See [Manage Docker as a non-root user](https://docs.docker.com/install/linux/linux-postinstall/#manage-docker-as-a-non-root-user) how to set this up properly.
|
||||
|
||||
* SSH server version is not version 6.7 or higher. This is needed for socket forwarding to work, which is used to connect to the Docker socket over SSH. This can be checked using `sshd -V` on the host you are connecting to, or using netcat:
|
||||
```
|
||||
$ nc xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx 22
|
||||
SSH-2.0-OpenSSH_6.6.1p1 Ubuntu-2ubuntu2.10

```
|
||||
|
||||
#### Failed to dial ssh using address [xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx:xx]: Error configuring SSH: ssh: no key found
|
||||
|
||||
* The key file specified as `ssh_key_path` cannot be accessed. Make sure that you specified the private key file (not the public key, `.pub`), and that the user that is running the `rke` command can access the private key file.
|
||||
|
||||
#### Failed to dial ssh using address [xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx:xx]: ssh: handshake failed: ssh: unable to authenticate, attempted methods [none publickey], no supported methods remain
|
||||
|
||||
* The key file specified as `ssh_key_path` is not correct for accessing the node. Double-check if you specified the correct `ssh_key_path` for the node and if you specified the correct user to connect with.
|
||||
|
||||
#### Failed to dial ssh using address [xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx:xx]: Error configuring SSH: ssh: cannot decode encrypted private keys
|
||||
|
||||
* If you want to use encrypted private keys, you should use `ssh-agent` to load your keys with your passphrase. If the `SSH_AUTH_SOCK` environment variable is found in the environment where the `rke` command is run, it will be used automatically to connect to the node.
|
||||
|
||||
#### Cannot connect to the Docker daemon at unix:///var/run/docker.sock. Is the docker daemon running?
|
||||
|
||||
* The node is not reachable on the configured `address` and `port`.

|
||||
|
||||
If you're using RKE to install Rancher, you can use directives to enable API Auditing for your Rancher install. You can know what happened, when it happened, who initiated it, and what cluster it affected. API auditing records all requests and responses to and from the Rancher API, which includes use of the Rancher UI and any other use of the Rancher API through programmatic use.
|
||||
|
||||
## In-line Arguments
|
||||
|
||||
Enable API Auditing using RKE by adding arguments to your Rancher container.
|
||||
|
||||
To enable API auditing:
|
||||
|
||||
- Add API Auditing arguments (`args`) to your Rancher container.
|
||||
- Declare a `mountPath` in the `volumeMounts` directive of the container.
|
||||
- Declare a `path` in the `volumes` directive.
|
||||
|
||||
For more information about each argument, its syntax, and how to view API Audit logs, see [Rancher v2.0 Documentation: API Auditing]({{<baseurl>}}/rancher/v2.x/en/installation/api-auditing).

||||
|
||||
This procedure walks you through setting up a 3-node cluster using the Rancher Kubernetes Engine (RKE). The cluster's sole purpose is running pods for Rancher. The setup is based on:
|
||||
|
||||
- Layer 4 load balancer (TCP)
|
||||
- [NGINX ingress controller with SSL termination (HTTPS)](https://kubernetes.github.io/ingress-nginx/)
|
||||
|
||||
In a Kubernetes setup that uses a layer 4 load balancer, the load balancer accepts Rancher client connections over the TCP/UDP protocols (i.e., the transport level). The load balancer then forwards these connections to individual cluster nodes without reading the request itself. Because the load balancer cannot read the packets it's forwarding, the routing decisions it can make are limited.

|
||||
## Installation Outline
|
||||
|
||||

|
||||
## 1. Provision Linux Hosts
|
||||
|
||||
Provision three Linux hosts according to our [Requirements]({{<baseurl>}}/rancher/v2.x/en/installation/requirements).
|
||||
|
||||
## 2. Configure Load Balancer
|
||||
|
||||
We will be using NGINX as our Layer 4 Load Balancer (TCP). NGINX will forward all connections to one of your Rancher nodes. If you want to use Amazon NLB, you can skip this step and use [Amazon NLB configuration]({{<baseurl>}}/rancher/v2.x/en/installation/k8s-install-server-install/nlb/)
|
||||
|
||||
>**Note:**
|
||||
> In this configuration, the load balancer is positioned in front of your Linux hosts. The load balancer can be any host that you have available that's capable of running NGINX.
|
||||
>
|
||||
>One caveat: do not use one of your Rancher nodes as the load balancer.
|
||||
|
||||
### A. Install NGINX
|
||||
|
||||
Start by installing NGINX on your load balancer host. NGINX has packages available for all known operating systems. For help installing NGINX, refer to their [install documentation](https://www.nginx.com/resources/wiki/start/topics/tutorials/install/).
|
||||
|
||||
The `stream` module is required, which is present when using the official NGINX packages. Please refer to your OS documentation how to install and enable the NGINX `stream` module on your operating system.
|
||||
|
||||
### B. Create NGINX Configuration
|
||||
|
||||
After installing NGINX, you need to update the NGINX config file, `nginx.conf`, with the IP addresses for your nodes.
|
||||
|
||||
1. Copy and paste the code sample below into your favorite text editor. Save it as `nginx.conf`.
|
||||
|
||||
2. From `nginx.conf`, replace `IP_NODE_1`, `IP_NODE_2`, and `IP_NODE_3` with the IPs of your [Linux hosts](#1-provision-linux-hosts).
|
||||
|
||||
>**Note:** This Nginx configuration is only an example and may not suit your environment. For complete documentation, see [NGINX Load Balancing - TCP and UDP Load Balancer](https://docs.nginx.com/nginx/admin-guide/load-balancer/tcp-udp-load-balancer/).
|
||||
|
||||
**Example NGINX config:**
|
||||
```
|
||||
worker_processes 4;
|
||||
worker_rlimit_nofile 40000;
|
||||
|
||||
events {
|
||||
worker_connections 8192;
|
||||
}
|
||||
|
||||
http {
|
||||
server {
|
||||
listen 80;
|
||||
return 301 https://$host$request_uri;
|
||||
}
|
||||
}
|
||||
|
||||
stream {
|
||||
upstream rancher_servers {
|
||||
least_conn;
|
||||
server IP_NODE_1:443 max_fails=3 fail_timeout=5s;
|
||||
server IP_NODE_2:443 max_fails=3 fail_timeout=5s;
|
||||
server IP_NODE_3:443 max_fails=3 fail_timeout=5s;
|
||||
}
|
||||
server {
|
||||
listen 443;
|
||||
proxy_pass rancher_servers;
|
||||
}
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
3. Save `nginx.conf` to your load balancer at the following path: `/etc/nginx/nginx.conf`.
|
||||
|
||||
4. Load the updates to your NGINX configuration by running the following command:
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
# nginx -s reload
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Option - Run NGINX as Docker container
|
||||
|
||||
Instead of installing NGINX as a package on the operating system, you can rather run it as a Docker container. Save the edited **Example NGINX config** as `/etc/nginx.conf` and run the following command to launch the NGINX container:
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
docker run -d --restart=unless-stopped \
|
||||
-p 80:80 -p 443:443 \
|
||||
-v /etc/nginx.conf:/etc/nginx/nginx.conf \
|
||||
nginx:1.14
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## 3. Configure DNS
|
||||
|
||||
Choose a fully qualified domain name (FQDN) that you want to use to access Rancher (e.g., `rancher.yourdomain.com`).<br/><br/>
|
||||
|
||||
1. Log into your DNS server a create a `DNS A` record that points to the IP address of your [load balancer](#2-configure-load-balancer).
|
||||
|
||||
2. Validate that the `DNS A` is working correctly. Run the following command from any terminal, replacing `HOSTNAME.DOMAIN.COM` with your chosen FQDN:
|
||||
|
||||
`nslookup HOSTNAME.DOMAIN.COM`
|
||||
|
||||
**Step Result:** Terminal displays output similar to the following:
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
$ nslookup rancher.yourdomain.com
|
||||
Server: YOUR_HOSTNAME_IP_ADDRESS
|
||||
Address: YOUR_HOSTNAME_IP_ADDRESS#53
|
||||
|
||||
Non-authoritative answer:
|
||||
Name: rancher.yourdomain.com
|
||||
Address: HOSTNAME.DOMAIN.COM
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
<br/>
|
||||
|
||||
## 4. Install RKE
|
||||
|
||||
RKE (Rancher Kubernetes Engine) is a fast, versatile Kubernetes installer that you can use to install Kubernetes on your Linux hosts. We will use RKE to setup our cluster and run Rancher.
|
||||
|
||||
1. Follow the [RKE Install]({{<baseurl>}}/rke/latest/en/installation) instructions.
|
||||
|
||||
2. Confirm that RKE is now executable by running the following command:
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
rke --version
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## 5. Download RKE Config File Template
|
||||
|
||||
RKE uses a `.yml` config file to install and configure your Kubernetes cluster. There are 2 templates to choose from, depending on the SSL certificate you want to use.
|
||||
|
||||
1. Download one of following templates, depending on the SSL certificate you're using.
|
||||
|
||||
- [Template for self-signed certificate<br/> `3-node-certificate.yml`](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/rancher/rancher/master/rke-templates/3-node-certificate.yml)
|
||||
- [Template for certificate signed by recognized CA<br/> `3-node-certificate-recognizedca.yml`](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/rancher/rancher/master/rke-templates/3-node-certificate-recognizedca.yml)
|
||||
|
||||
>**Advanced Config Options:**
|
||||
>
|
||||
>- Want records of all transactions with the Rancher API? Enable the [API Auditing]({{<baseurl>}}/rancher/v2.x/en/installation/api-auditing) feature by editing your RKE config file. For more information, see how to enable it in [your RKE config file]({{<baseurl>}}/rancher/v2.x/en/installation/options/helm2/rke-add-on/api-auditing/).
|
||||
>- Want to know the other config options available for your RKE template? See the [RKE Documentation: Config Options]({{<baseurl>}}/rke/latest/en/config-options/).
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
2. Rename the file to `rancher-cluster.yml`.
|
||||
|
||||
## 6. Configure Nodes
|
||||
|
||||
Once you have the `rancher-cluster.yml` config file template, edit the nodes section to point toward your Linux hosts.
|
||||
|
||||
1. Open `rancher-cluster.yml` in your favorite text editor.
|
||||
|
||||
1. Update the `nodes` section with the information of your [Linux hosts](#1-provision-linux-hosts).
|
||||
|
||||
For each node in your cluster, update the following placeholders: `IP_ADDRESS_X` and `USER`. The specified user should be able to access the Docket socket, you can test this by logging in with the specified user and run `docker ps`.
|
||||
|
||||
>**Note:**
|
||||
> When using RHEL/CentOS, the SSH user can't be root due to https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1527565. See [Operating System Requirements]({{<baseurl>}}/rke/latest/en/installation/os#redhat-enterprise-linux-rhel-centos) >for RHEL/CentOS specific requirements.
|
||||
|
||||
nodes:
|
||||
# The IP address or hostname of the node
|
||||
- address: IP_ADDRESS_1
|
||||
# User that can login to the node and has access to the Docker socket (i.e. can execute `docker ps` on the node)
|
||||
# When using RHEL/CentOS, this can't be root due to https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1527565
|
||||
user: USER
|
||||
role: [controlplane,etcd,worker]
|
||||
# Path the SSH key that can be used to access to node with the specified user
|
||||
ssh_key_path: ~/.ssh/id_rsa
|
||||
- address: IP_ADDRESS_2
|
||||
user: USER
|
||||
role: [controlplane,etcd,worker]
|
||||
ssh_key_path: ~/.ssh/id_rsa
|
||||
- address: IP_ADDRESS_3
|
||||
user: USER
|
||||
role: [controlplane,etcd,worker]
|
||||
ssh_key_path: ~/.ssh/id_rsa
|
||||
|
||||
1. **Optional:** By default, `rancher-cluster.yml` is configured to take backup snapshots of your data. To disable these snapshots, change the `backup` directive setting to `false`, as depicted below.
|
||||
|
||||
services:
|
||||
etcd:
|
||||
backup: false
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
## 7. Configure Certificates
|
||||
|
||||
For security purposes, SSL (Secure Sockets Layer) is required when using Rancher. SSL secures all Rancher network communication, like when you login or interact with a cluster.
|
||||
|
||||
Choose from the following options:
|
||||
|
||||
{{% accordion id="option-a" label="Option A—Bring Your Own Certificate: Self-Signed" %}}
|
||||
|
||||
>**Prerequisites:**
|
||||
>Create a self-signed certificate.
|
||||
>
|
||||
>- The certificate files must be in [PEM format](#pem).
|
||||
>- The certificate files must be encoded in [base64](#base64).
|
||||
>- In your certificate file, include all intermediate certificates in the chain. Order your certificates with your certificate first, followed by the intermediates. For an example, see [Intermediate Certificates](#cert-order).
|
||||
|
||||
1. In `kind: Secret` with `name: cattle-keys-ingress`:
|
||||
|
||||
* Replace `<BASE64_CRT>` with the base64 encoded string of the Certificate file (usually called `cert.pem` or `domain.crt`)
|
||||
* Replace `<BASE64_KEY>` with the base64 encoded string of the Certificate Key file (usually called `key.pem` or `domain.key`)
|
||||
|
||||
>**Note:**
|
||||
> The base64 encoded string should be on the same line as `tls.crt` or `tls.key`, without any newline at the beginning, in between or at the end.
|
||||
|
||||
**Step Result:** After replacing the values, the file should look like the example below (the base64 encoded strings should be different):
|
||||
|
||||
```yaml

|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
2. In `kind: Secret` with `name: cattle-keys-server`, replace `<BASE64_CA>` with the base64 encoded string of the CA Certificate file (usually called `ca.pem` or `ca.crt`).
|
||||
|
||||
>**Note:**
|
||||
> The base64 encoded string should be on the same line as `cacerts.pem`, without any newline at the beginning, in between or at the end.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
**Step Result:** The file should look like the example below (the base64 encoded string should be different):
|
||||
|
||||
```yaml
|
||||

> If you are using Self Signed Certificate, [click here](#option-a-bring-your-own-certificate-self-signed) to proceed.
|
||||
|
||||
If you are using a Certificate Signed By A Recognized Certificate Authority, you will need to generate a base64 encoded string for the Certificate file and the Certificate Key file. Make sure that your certificate file includes all the [intermediate certificates](#cert-order) in the chain, the order of certificates in this case is first your own certificate, followed by the intermediates. Please refer to the documentation of your CSP (Certificate Service Provider) to see what intermediate certificate(s) need to be included.
|
||||
|
||||
In the `kind: Secret` with `name: cattle-keys-ingress`:
|
||||
|
||||
* Replace `<BASE64_CRT>` with the base64 encoded string of the Certificate file (usually called `cert.pem` or `domain.crt`)
|
||||
* Replace `<BASE64_KEY>` with the base64 encoded string of the Certificate Key file (usually called `key.pem` or `domain.key`)
|
||||
|
||||
After replacing the values, the file should look like the example below (the base64 encoded strings should be different):
|
||||
|
||||
>**Note:**
|
||||
> The base64 encoded string should be on the same line as `tls.crt` or `tls.key`, without any newline at the beginning, in between or at the end.

## 8. Configure FQDN
|
||||
|
||||
There are two references to `<FQDN>` in the config file (one in this step and one in the next). Both need to be replaced with the FQDN chosen in [Configure DNS](#3-configure-dns).
|
||||
|
||||
In the `kind: Ingress` with `name: cattle-ingress-http`:
|
||||
|
||||
* Replace `<FQDN>` with the FQDN chosen in [Configure DNS](#3-configure-dns).
|
||||
|
||||
After replacing `<FQDN>` with the FQDN chosen in [Configure DNS](#3-configure-dns), the file should look like the example below (`rancher.yourdomain.com` is the FQDN used in this example):
|
||||
|
||||
```yaml
|
||||
---
|
||||
apiVersion: extensions/v1beta1
|
||||
kind: Ingress
|
||||
metadata:
|
||||
namespace: cattle-system
|
||||
name: cattle-ingress-http
|
||||

||||

||||

|
||||

|
||||

|
||||
- host: rancher.yourdomain.com
|
||||

|
||||

||||

|
||||
serviceName: cattle-service
|
||||
servicePort: 80
|
||||
tls:
|
||||
- secretName: cattle-keys-ingress
|
||||
hosts:
|
||||
- rancher.yourdomain.com
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Save the `.yml` file and close it.
|
||||
|
||||
## 9. Configure Rancher version
|
||||
|
||||
The last reference that needs to be replaced is `<RANCHER_VERSION>`. This needs to be replaced with a Rancher version which is marked as stable. The latest stable release of Rancher can be found in the [GitHub README](https://github.com/rancher/rancher/blob/master/README.md). Make sure the version is an actual version number, and not a named tag like `stable` or `latest`. The example below shows the version configured to `v2.0.6`.
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
spec:
|
||||
serviceAccountName: cattle-admin
|
||||
containers:
|
||||
- image: rancher/rancher:v2.0.6
|
||||
imagePullPolicy: Always
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## 10. Back Up Your RKE Config File
|
||||
|
||||
After you close your `.yml` file, back it up to a secure location. You can use this file again when it's time to upgrade Rancher.
|
||||
|
||||
## 11. Run RKE
|
||||
|
||||
With all configuration in place, use RKE to launch Rancher. You can complete this action by running the `rke up` command and using the `--config` parameter to point toward your config file.
|
||||
|
||||
1. From your workstation, make sure `rancher-cluster.yml` and the downloaded `rke` binary are in the same directory.
|
||||
|
||||
2. Open a Terminal instance. Change to the directory that contains your config file and `rke`.
|
||||
|
||||
3. Enter one of the `rke up` commands listen below.
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
rke up --config rancher-cluster.yml
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**Step Result:** The output should be similar to the snippet below:
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
INFO[0000] Building Kubernetes cluster
|
||||
INFO[0000] [dialer] Setup tunnel for host [1.1.1.1]
|
||||
INFO[0000] [network] Deploying port listener containers
|
||||
INFO[0000] [network] Pulling image [alpine:latest] on host [1.1.1.1]
|
||||
...
|
||||
INFO[0101] Finished building Kubernetes cluster successfully
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## 12. Back Up Auto-Generated Config File
|
||||
|
||||
During installation, RKE automatically generates a config file named `kube_config_rancher-cluster.yml` in the same directory as the RKE binary. Copy this file and back it up to a safe location. You'll use this file later when upgrading Rancher Server.
|
||||
|
||||
## What's Next?
|
||||
|
||||
You have a couple of options:
|
||||
|
||||
- Create a backup of your Rancher Server in case of a disaster scenario: [High Availability Back Up and Restoration]({{<baseurl>}}/rancher/v2.x/en/installation/backups-and-restoration/ha-backup-and-restoration).
|
||||
- Create a Kubernetes cluster: [Provisioning Kubernetes Clusters]({{<baseurl>}}/rancher/v2.x/en/cluster-provisioning/).

|
||||
## Objectives
|
||||
|
||||
Configuring an Amazon NLB is a multistage process. We've broken it down into multiple tasks so that it's easy to follow.
|
||||
|
||||
1. [Create Target Groups](#create-target-groups)
|
||||
|
||||
Begin by creating two target groups for the **TCP** protocol, one regarding TCP port 443 and one regarding TCP port 80 (providing redirect to TCP port 443). You'll add your Linux nodes to these groups.
|
||||
|
||||
2. [Register Targets](#register-targets)
|
||||
|
||||
Add your Linux nodes to the target groups.
|
||||
|
||||
3. [Create Your NLB](#create-your-nlb)
|
||||
|
||||
Use Amazon's Wizard to create an Network Load Balancer. As part of this process, you'll add the target groups you created in **1. Create Target Groups**.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
## Create Target Groups
|
||||
|
||||
Your first NLB configuration step is to create two target groups. Technically, only port 443 is needed to access Rancher, but its convenient to add a listener for port 80 which will be redirected to port 443 automatically. The NGINX controller on the nodes will make sure that port 80 gets redirected to port 443.
|
||||
|
||||
Log into the [Amazon AWS Console](https://console.aws.amazon.com/ec2/) to get started, make sure to select the **Region** where your EC2 instances (Linux nodes) are created.
|
||||
|
||||
The Target Groups configuration resides in the **Load Balancing** section of the **EC2** service. Select **Services** and choose **EC2**, find the section **Load Balancing** and open **Target Groups**.
|
||||
|
||||
{{< img "/img/rancher/ha/nlb/ec2-loadbalancing.png" "EC2 Load Balancing section">}}
|
||||
|
||||
Click **Create target group** to create the first target group, regarding TCP port 443.
|
||||
|
||||
### Target Group (TCP port 443)

Repeat those steps, replacing **rancher-tcp-443** with **rancher-tcp-80**. The same instances need to be added as targets to this target group.
|
||||
|
||||
## Create Your NLB
|
||||
|
||||
Use Amazon's Wizard to create an Network Load Balancer. As part of this process, you'll add the target groups you created in [Create Target Groups](#create-target-groups).
|
||||
|
||||
1. From your web browser, navigate to the [Amazon EC2 Console](https://console.aws.amazon.com/ec2/).
|
||||
|
||||
2. From the navigation pane, choose **LOAD BALANCING** > **Load Balancers**.
|
||||
|
||||
3. Click **Create Load Balancer**.
|
||||
|
||||
4. Choose **Network Load Balancer** and click **Create**.
|
||||
|
||||
5. Complete the **Step 1: Configure Load Balancer** form.
|
||||
- **Basic Configuration**
|
||||
|
||||
- Name: `rancher`
|
||||
- Scheme: `internet-facing`
|
||||
- **Listeners**
|
||||
|
||||
Add the **Load Balancer Protocols** and **Load Balancer Ports** below.
|
||||
- `TCP`: `443`
|
||||
|
||||
- **Availability Zones**
|
||||
|
||||
- Select Your **VPC** and **Availability Zones**.
|
||||
|
||||
6. Complete the **Step 2: Configure Routing** form.
|
||||
|
||||
- From the **Target Group** drop-down, choose **Existing target group**.
|
||||
|
||||
- From the **Name** drop-down, choose `rancher-tcp-443`.
|
||||
|
||||
- Open **Advanced health check settings**, and configure **Interval** to `10 seconds`.
|
||||
|
||||
7. Complete **Step 3: Register Targets**. Since you registered your targets earlier, all you have to do is click **Next: Review**.
|
||||
|
||||
8. Complete **Step 4: Review**. Look over the load balancer details and click **Create** when you're satisfied.
|
||||
|
||||
9. After AWS creates the NLB, click **Close**.
|
||||
|
||||
## Add listener to NLB for TCP port 80
|
||||
|
||||
1. Select your newly created NLB and select the **Listeners** tab.
|
||||
|
||||
2. Click **Add listener**.
|
||||
|
||||
3. Use `TCP`:`80` as **Protocol** : **Port**
|
||||
|
||||
4. Click **Add action** and choose **Forward to...**
|
||||
|
||||
5. From the **Forward to** drop-down, choose `rancher-tcp-80`.
|
||||
|
||||
6. Click **Save** in the top right of the screen.

|
||||
|
||||
This procedure walks you through setting up a 3-node cluster using the Rancher Kubernetes Engine (RKE). The cluster's sole purpose is running pods for Rancher. The setup is based on:
|
||||
|
||||
- Layer 7 Loadbalancer with SSL termination (HTTPS)
|
||||
- [NGINX Ingress controller (HTTP)](https://kubernetes.github.io/ingress-nginx/)
|
||||
|
||||
In an Kubernetes setup that uses a layer 7 load balancer, the load balancer accepts Rancher client connections over the HTTP protocol (i.e., the application level). This application-level access allows the load balancer to read client requests and then redirect to them to cluster nodes using logic that optimally distributes load.
|
||||
|
||||

|
||||

|
||||
|
||||
## Installation Outline
|
||||
|
||||
Installation of Rancher in a high-availability configuration involves multiple procedures. Review this outline to learn about each procedure you need to complete.

|
||||
## 1. Provision Linux Hosts
|
||||
|
||||
Provision three Linux hosts according to our [Requirements]({{<baseurl>}}/rancher/v2.x/en/installation/requirements).
|
||||
|
||||
## 2. Configure Load Balancer
|
||||
|
||||
When using a load balancer in front of Rancher, there's no need for the container to redirect port communication from port 80 or port 443. By passing the header `X-Forwarded-Proto: https`, this redirect is disabled. This is the expected configuration when terminating SSL externally.
|
||||
|
||||
The load balancer has to be configured to support the following:
|
||||
|
||||
* **WebSocket** connections
|
||||
* **SPDY** / **HTTP/2** protocols
|
||||
* Passing / setting the following headers:
|
||||
|
||||
| Header | Value | Description |
|
||||
|---------------------|----------------------------------------|:-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|
|
||||
| `Host` | FQDN used to reach Rancher. | To identify the server requested by the client. |
|
||||
| `X-Forwarded-Proto` | `https` | To identify the protocol that a client used to connect to the load balancer.<br /><br/>**Note:** If this header is present, `rancher/rancher` does not redirect HTTP to HTTPS. |
|
||||
| `X-Forwarded-Port` | Port used to reach Rancher. | To identify the protocol that client used to connect to the load balancer. |
|
||||
| `X-Forwarded-For` | IP of the client connection. | To identify the originating IP address of a client. |
|
||||
|
||||
Health checks can be executed on the `/healthz` endpoint of the node, this will return HTTP 200.
|
||||
|
||||
We have example configurations for the following load balancers:
|
||||
|
||||
* [Amazon ALB configuration](alb/)
|
||||
* [NGINX configuration](nginx/)
|
||||
|
||||
## 3. Configure DNS
|
||||
|
||||
Choose a fully qualified domain name (FQDN) that you want to use to access Rancher (e.g., `rancher.yourdomain.com`).<br/><br/>
|
||||
|
||||
1. Log into your DNS server a create a `DNS A` record that points to the IP address of your [load balancer](#2-configure-load-balancer).
|
||||
|
||||
2. Validate that the `DNS A` is working correctly. Run the following command from any terminal, replacing `HOSTNAME.DOMAIN.COM` with your chosen FQDN:
|
||||
|
||||
`nslookup HOSTNAME.DOMAIN.COM`
|
||||
|
||||
**Step Result:** Terminal displays output similar to the following:
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
$ nslookup rancher.yourdomain.com
|
||||
Server: YOUR_HOSTNAME_IP_ADDRESS
|
||||
Address: YOUR_HOSTNAME_IP_ADDRESS#53
|
||||
|
||||
Non-authoritative answer:
|
||||
Name: rancher.yourdomain.com
|
||||
Address: HOSTNAME.DOMAIN.COM
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
<br/>
|
||||
|
||||
## 4. Install RKE
|
||||
|
||||
RKE (Rancher Kubernetes Engine) is a fast, versatile Kubernetes installer that you can use to install Kubernetes on your Linux hosts. We will use RKE to setup our cluster and run Rancher.
|
||||
|
||||
1. Follow the [RKE Install]({{<baseurl>}}/rke/latest/en/installation) instructions.
|
||||
|
||||
2. Confirm that RKE is now executable by running the following command:
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
rke --version
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## 5. Download RKE Config File Template
|
||||
|
||||
RKE uses a YAML config file to install and configure your Kubernetes cluster. There are 2 templates to choose from, depending on the SSL certificate you want to use.
|
||||
|
||||
1. Download one of following templates, depending on the SSL certificate you're using.
|
||||
|
||||
- [Template for self-signed certificate<br/> `3-node-externalssl-certificate.yml`](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/rancher/rancher/master/rke-templates/3-node-externalssl-certificate.yml)
|
||||
- [Template for certificate signed by recognized CA<br/> `3-node-externalssl-recognizedca.yml`](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/rancher/rancher/master/rke-templates/3-node-externalssl-recognizedca.yml)
|
||||
|
||||
>**Advanced Config Options:**
|
||||
>
|
||||
>- Want records of all transactions with the Rancher API? Enable the [API Auditing]({{<baseurl>}}/rancher/v2.x/en/installation/api-auditing) feature by editing your RKE config file. For more information, see how to enable it in [your RKE config file]({{<baseurl>}}/rancher/v2.x/en/installation/options/helm2/rke-add-on/api-auditing/).
|
||||
>- Want to know the other config options available for your RKE template? See the [RKE Documentation: Config Options]({{<baseurl>}}/rke/latest/en/config-options/).
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
2. Rename the file to `rancher-cluster.yml`.
|
||||
|
||||
## 6. Configure Nodes
|
||||
|
||||
Once you have the `rancher-cluster.yml` config file template, edit the nodes section to point toward your Linux hosts.
|
||||
|
||||
1. Open `rancher-cluster.yml` in your favorite text editor.
|
||||
|
||||
1. Update the `nodes` section with the information of your [Linux hosts](#1-provision-linux-hosts).
|
||||
|
||||
For each node in your cluster, update the following placeholders: `IP_ADDRESS_X` and `USER`. The specified user should be able to access the Docket socket, you can test this by logging in with the specified user and run `docker ps`.
|
||||
|
||||
>**Note:**
|
||||
>
|
||||
>When using RHEL/CentOS, the SSH user can't be root due to https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1527565. See [Operating System Requirements]({{<baseurl>}}/rke/latest/en/installation/os#redhat-enterprise-linux-rhel-centos) for RHEL/CentOS specific requirements.
|
||||
|
||||
nodes:
|
||||
# The IP address or hostname of the node
|
||||
- address: IP_ADDRESS_1
|
||||
# User that can login to the node and has access to the Docker socket (i.e. can execute `docker ps` on the node)
|
||||
# When using RHEL/CentOS, this can't be root due to https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1527565
|
||||
user: USER
|
||||
role: [controlplane,etcd,worker]
|
||||
# Path the SSH key that can be used to access to node with the specified user
|
||||
ssh_key_path: ~/.ssh/id_rsa
|
||||
- address: IP_ADDRESS_2
|
||||
user: USER
|
||||
role: [controlplane,etcd,worker]
|
||||
ssh_key_path: ~/.ssh/id_rsa
|
||||
- address: IP_ADDRESS_3
|
||||
user: USER
|
||||
role: [controlplane,etcd,worker]
|
||||
ssh_key_path: ~/.ssh/id_rsa
|
||||
|
||||
1. **Optional:** By default, `rancher-cluster.yml` is configured to take backup snapshots of your data. To disable these snapshots, change the `backup` directive setting to `false`, as depicted below.
|
||||
|
||||
services:
|
||||
etcd:
|
||||
backup: false
|
||||
|
||||
## 7. Configure Certificates
|
||||
|
||||
For security purposes, SSL (Secure Sockets Layer) is required when using Rancher. SSL secures all Rancher network communication, like when you login or interact with a cluster.
|
||||
|
||||
Choose from the following options:
|
||||
|
||||
{{% accordion id="option-a" label="Option A—Bring Your Own Certificate: Self-Signed" %}}
|
||||
>**Prerequisites:**
|
||||
>Create a self-signed certificate.
|
||||
>
|
||||
>- The certificate files must be in [PEM format](#pem).
|
||||
>- The certificate files must be encoded in [base64](#base64).
|
||||
>- In your certificate file, include all intermediate certificates in the chain. Order your certificates with your certificate first, followed by the intermediates. For an example, see [SSL FAQ / Troubleshooting](#cert-order).
|
||||
|
||||
In `kind: Secret` with `name: cattle-keys-ingress`, replace `<BASE64_CA>` with the base64 encoded string of the CA Certificate file (usually called `ca.pem` or `ca.crt`)
|
||||
|
||||
>**Note:** The base64 encoded string should be on the same line as `cacerts.pem`, without any newline at the beginning, in between or at the end.
|
||||
|
||||
After replacing the values, the file should look like the example below (the base64 encoded strings should be different):
|
||||
|
||||

|
||||
apiVersion: v1
|
||||

{{% /accordion %}}
|

{{% accordion id="option-b" label="Option B—Bring Your Own Certificate: Signed by Recognized CA" %}}
|

If you are using a Certificate Signed By A Recognized Certificate Authority, you don't need to perform any step in this part.
|
||||
{{% /accordion %}}
|
||||
|
||||
## 8. Configure FQDN
|
||||
|
||||
There is one reference to `<FQDN>` in the RKE config file. Replace this reference with the FQDN you chose in [3. Configure DNS](#3-configure-dns).
|
||||
|
||||
1. Open `rancher-cluster.yml`.
|
||||
|
||||
2. In the `kind: Ingress` with `name: cattle-ingress-http:`
|
||||
|
||||
Replace `<FQDN>` with the FQDN chosen in [3. Configure DNS](#3-configure-dns).
|
||||
|
||||
**Step Result:** After replacing the values, the file should look like the example below (the base64 encoded strings should be different):
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
apiVersion: extensions/v1beta1
|
||||
kind: Ingress
|
||||
metadata:
|
||||
namespace: cattle-system
|
||||
name: cattle-ingress-http
|
||||
annotations:
|
||||
nginx.ingress.kubernetes.io/proxy-connect-timeout: "30"
|
||||
nginx.ingress.kubernetes.io/proxy-read-timeout: "1800" # Max time in seconds for ws to remain shell window open
|
||||
nginx.ingress.kubernetes.io/proxy-send-timeout: "1800" # Max time in seconds for ws to remain shell window open
|
||||
spec:
|
||||
rules:
|
||||
- host: rancher.yourdomain.com
|
||||
http:
|
||||
paths:
|
||||
- backend:
|
||||
serviceName: cattle-service
|
||||
servicePort: 80
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
3. Save the file and close it.
|
||||
|
||||
## 9. Configure Rancher version
|
||||
|
||||
The last reference that needs to be replaced is `<RANCHER_VERSION>`. This needs to be replaced with a Rancher version which is marked as stable. The latest stable release of Rancher can be found in the [GitHub README](https://github.com/rancher/rancher/blob/master/README.md). Make sure the version is an actual version number, and not a named tag like `stable` or `latest`. The example below shows the version configured to `v2.0.6`.
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
spec:
|
||||
serviceAccountName: cattle-admin
|
||||
containers:
|
||||
- image: rancher/rancher:v2.0.6
|
||||
imagePullPolicy: Always
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## 10. Back Up Your RKE Config File
|
||||
|
||||
After you close your RKE config file, `rancher-cluster.yml`, back it up to a secure location. You can use this file again when it's time to upgrade Rancher.
|
||||
|
||||
## 11. Run RKE
|
||||
|
||||
With all configuration in place, use RKE to launch Rancher. You can complete this action by running the `rke up` command and using the `--config` parameter to point toward your config file.
|
||||
|
||||
1. From your workstation, make sure `rancher-cluster.yml` and the downloaded `rke` binary are in the same directory.
|
||||
|
||||
2. Open a Terminal instance. Change to the directory that contains your config file and `rke`.
|
||||
|
||||
3. Enter one of the `rke up` commands listen below.
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
rke up --config rancher-cluster.yml
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**Step Result:** The output should be similar to the snippet below:
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
INFO[0000] Building Kubernetes cluster
|
||||
INFO[0000] [dialer] Setup tunnel for host [1.1.1.1]
|
||||
INFO[0000] [network] Deploying port listener containers
|
||||
INFO[0000] [network] Pulling image [alpine:latest] on host [1.1.1.1]
|
||||
...
|
||||
INFO[0101] Finished building Kubernetes cluster successfully
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## 12. Back Up Auto-Generated Config File
|
||||
|
||||
During installation, RKE automatically generates a config file named `kube_config_rancher-cluster.yml` in the same directory as the `rancher-cluster.yml` file. Copy this file and back it up to a safe location. You'll use this file later when upgrading Rancher Server.
|
||||

## Objectives
|
||||
|
||||
Configuring an Amazon ALB is a multistage process. We've broken it down into multiple tasks so that it's easy to follow.
|
||||
|
||||
1. [Create Target Group](#create-target-group)
|
||||
|
||||
Begin by creating one target group for the http protocol. You'll add your Linux nodes to this group.
|
||||
|
||||
2. [Register Targets](#register-targets)
|
||||
|
||||
Add your Linux nodes to the target group.
|
||||
|
||||
3. [Create Your ALB](#create-your-alb)
|
||||
|
||||
Use Amazon's Wizard to create an Application Load Balancer. As part of this process, you'll add the target groups you created in **1. Create Target Groups**.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
## Create Target Group
|
||||
|
||||
Your first ALB configuration step is to create one target group for HTTP.
|
||||
|
||||
Log into the [Amazon AWS Console](https://console.aws.amazon.com/ec2/) to get started.
|
||||
|
||||
The document below will guide you through this process. Use the data in the tables below to complete the procedure.
|
||||
|
||||
[Amazon Documentation: Create a Target Group](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/elasticloadbalancing/latest/application/create-target-group.html)
|
||||
|
||||
### Target Group (HTTP)
|
||||
|
||||
Option | Setting
|
||||
----------------------------|------------------------------------
|
||||
Target Group Name | `rancher-http-80`
|
||||
Protocol | `HTTP`
|
||||
Port | `80`
|
||||
Target type | `instance`
|
||||
VPC | Choose your VPC
|
||||
Protocol<br/>(Health Check) | `HTTP`
|
||||
Path<br/>(Health Check) | `/healthz`
|
||||
|
||||
## Register Targets
|
||||
|
||||
Next, add your Linux nodes to your target group.
|
||||
|
||||
[Amazon Documentation: Register Targets with Your Target Group](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/elasticloadbalancing/latest/application/target-group-register-targets.html)
|
||||
|
||||
### Create Your ALB
|
||||
|
||||
Use Amazon's Wizard to create an Application Load Balancer. As part of this process, you'll add the target group you created in [Create Target Group](#create-target-group).
|
||||
|
||||
1. From your web browser, navigate to the [Amazon EC2 Console](https://console.aws.amazon.com/ec2/).
|
||||
|
||||
2. From the navigation pane, choose **LOAD BALANCING** > **Load Balancers**.
|
||||
|
||||
3. Click **Create Load Balancer**.
|
||||
|
||||
4. Choose **Application Load Balancer**.
|
||||
|
||||
5. Complete the **Step 1: Configure Load Balancer** form.
|
||||
- **Basic Configuration**
|
||||
|
||||
- Name: `rancher-http`
|
||||
- Scheme: `internet-facing`
|
||||
- IP address type: `ipv4`
|
||||
- **Listeners**
|
||||
|
||||
Add the **Load Balancer Protocols** and **Load Balancer Ports** below.
|
||||
- `HTTP`: `80`
|
||||
- `HTTPS`: `443`
|
||||
|
||||
- **Availability Zones**
|
||||
|
||||
- Select Your **VPC** and **Availability Zones**.
|
||||
|
||||
6. Complete the **Step 2: Configure Security Settings** form.
|
||||
|
||||
Configure the certificate you want to use for SSL termination.
|
||||
|
||||
7. Complete the **Step 3: Configure Security Groups** form.
|
||||
|
||||
8. Complete the **Step 4: Configure Routing** form.
|
||||
|
||||
- From the **Target Group** drop-down, choose **Existing target group**.
|
||||
|
||||
- Add target group `rancher-http-80`.
|
||||
|
||||
9. Complete **Step 5: Register Targets**. Since you registered your targets earlier, all you have to do it click **Next: Review**.
|
||||
|
||||
10. Complete **Step 6: Review**. Look over the load balancer details and click **Create** when you're satisfied.
|
||||
|
||||
11. After AWS creates the ALB, click **Close**.

|
||||
|
||||
If you operate Rancher behind a proxy and you want to access services through the proxy (such as retrieving catalogs), you must provide Rancher information about your proxy. As Rancher is written in Go, it uses the common proxy environment variables as shown below.
|
||||
|
||||
Make sure `NO_PROXY` contains the network addresses, network address ranges and domains that should be excluded from using the proxy.
|
||||
|
||||
Environment variable | Purpose
|
||||
--------------------------|---------
|
||||
HTTP_PROXY | Proxy address to use when initiating HTTP connection(s)
|
||||
HTTPS_PROXY | Proxy address to use when initiating HTTPS connection(s)
|
||||
NO_PROXY | Network address(es), network address range(s) and domains to exclude from using the proxy when initiating connection(s)
|
||||
|
||||
> **Note** NO_PROXY must be in uppercase to use network range (CIDR) notation.
|
||||
|
||||
## Kubernetes installation
|
||||
|
||||
When using Kubernetes installation, the environment variables need to be added to the RKE Config File template.
|
||||
|
||||
* [Kubernetes Installation with External Load Balancer (TCP/Layer 4) RKE Config File Template]({{<baseurl>}}/rancher/v2.x/en/installation/k8s-install-server-install/#5-download-rke-config-file-template)
|
||||
* [Kubernetes Installation with External Load Balancer (HTTPS/Layer 7) RKE Config File Template]({{<baseurl>}}/rancher/v2.x/en/installation/k8s-install-server-install-external-lb/#5-download-rke-config-file-template)
|
||||
|
||||
The environment variables should be defined in the `Deployment` inside the RKE Config File Template. You only have to add the part starting with `env:` to (but not including) `ports:`. Make sure the indentation is identical to the preceding `name:`. Required values for `NO_PROXY` are:
|
||||
|
||||
* `localhost`
|
||||
* `127.0.0.1`
|
||||
* `0.0.0.0`
|
||||
* Configured `service_cluster_ip_range` (default: `10.43.0.0/16`)
|
||||
|
||||
The example below is based on a proxy server accessible at `http://192.168.0.1:3128`, and excluding usage of the proxy when accessing network range `192.168.10.0/24`, the configured `service_cluster_ip_range` (`10.43.0.0/16`) and every hostname under the domain `example.com`. If you have changed the `service_cluster_ip_range`, you have to update the value below accordingly.

|

To debug issues around this error, you will need to download the command-line tool `kubectl`. See [Install and Set Up kubectl](https://kubernetes.io/docs/tasks/tools/install-kubectl/) how to download `kubectl` for your platform.
|
||||
|
||||
When you have made changes to `rancher-cluster.yml`, you will have to run `rke remove --config rancher-cluster.yml` to clean the nodes, so it cannot conflict with previous configuration errors.
|
||||
|
||||
### Possible causes
|
||||
|
||||
The nginx ingress controller is not able to serve the configured host in `rancher-cluster.yml`. This should be the FQDN you configured to access Rancher. You can check if it is properly configured by viewing the ingress that is created by running the following command:
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
kubectl --kubeconfig kube_config_rancher-cluster.yml get ingress -n cattle-system -o wide
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Check if the `HOSTS` column is displaying the FQDN you configured in the template, and that the used nodes are listed in the `ADDRESS` column. If that is configured correctly, we can check the logging of the nginx ingress controller.
|
||||
|
||||
The logging of the nginx ingress controller will show why it cannot serve the requested host. To view the logs, you can run the following command
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
kubectl --kubeconfig kube_config_rancher-cluster.yml logs -l app=ingress-nginx -n ingress-nginx
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
<b>Errors</b>
|
||||
|
||||
* `x509: certificate is valid for fqdn, not your_configured_fqdn`
|
||||
|
||||
The used certificates do not contain the correct hostname. Generate new certificates that contain the chosen FQDN to access Rancher and redeploy.
|
||||
|
||||
* `Port 80 is already in use. Please check the flag --http-port`
|
||||
|
||||
There is a process on the node occupying port 80, this port is needed for the nginx ingress controller to route requests to Rancher. You can find the process by running the command: `netstat -plant | grep \:80`.
|
||||
|
||||
Stop/kill the process and redeploy.
|
||||
|
||||
* `unexpected error creating pem file: no valid PEM formatted block found`
|
||||
|
||||
The base64 encoded string configured in the template is not valid. Please check if you can decode the configured string using `base64 -D STRING`, this should return the same output as the content of the file you used to generate the string. If this is correct, please check if the base64 encoded string is placed directly after the key, without any newlines before, in between or after. (For example: `tls.crt: LS01..`)

|
||||
|

Below are steps that you can follow to determine what is wrong in your cluster.
|
||||
|
||||
### Double check if all the required ports are opened in your (host) firewall
|
||||
|
||||
Double check if all the [required ports]({{<baseurl>}}/rancher/v2.x/en/cluster-provisioning/node-requirements/#networking-requirements/) are opened in your (host) firewall.
|
||||
|
||||
### All nodes should be present and in **Ready** state
|
||||
|
||||
To check, run the command:
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
kubectl --kubeconfig kube_config_rancher-cluster.yml get nodes
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
If a node is not shown in this output or a node is not in **Ready** state, you can check the logging of the `kubelet` container. Login to the node and run `docker logs kubelet`.
|
||||
|
||||
### All pods/jobs should be in **Running**/**Completed** state
|
||||
|
||||
To check, run the command:
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
kubectl --kubeconfig kube_config_rancher-cluster.yml get pods --all-namespaces
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
If a pod is not in **Running** state, you can dig into the root cause by running:
|
||||
|
||||
#### Describe pod
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
kubectl --kubeconfig kube_config_rancher-cluster.yml describe pod POD_NAME -n NAMESPACE
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
#### Pod container logs</h3>
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
kubectl --kubeconfig kube_config_rancher-cluster.yml logs POD_NAME -n NAMESPACE
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
If a job is not in **Completed** state, you can dig into the root cause by running:
|
||||
|
||||
#### Describe job
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
kubectl --kubeconfig kube_config_rancher-cluster.yml describe job JOB_NAME -n NAMESPACE
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
#### Logs from the containers of pods of the job
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
kubectl --kubeconfig kube_config_rancher-cluster.yml logs -l job-name=JOB_NAME -n NAMESPACE
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Check ingress
|
||||
|
||||
Ingress should have the correct `HOSTS` (showing the configured FQDN) and `ADDRESS` (address(es) it will be routed to).
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
kubectl --kubeconfig kube_config_rancher-cluster.yml get ingress --all-namespaces
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### List all Kubernetes cluster events
|
||||
|
||||
Kubernetes cluster events are stored, and can be retrieved by running:
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
kubectl --kubeconfig kube_config_rancher-cluster.yml get events --all-namespaces
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Check Rancher container logging
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
kubectl --kubeconfig kube_config_rancher-cluster.yml logs -l app=cattle -n cattle-system
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Check NGINX ingress controller logging
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
kubectl --kubeconfig kube_config_rancher-cluster.yml logs -l app=ingress-nginx -n ingress-nginx
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Check if overlay network is functioning correctly
|
||||
|
||||
The pod can be scheduled to any of the hosts you used for your cluster, but that means that the NGINX ingress controller needs to be able to route the request from `NODE_1` to `NODE_2`. This happens over the overlay network. If the overlay network is not functioning, you will experience intermittent TCP/HTTP connection failures due to the NGINX ingress controller not being able to route to the pod.
|
||||
|
||||
To test the overlay network, you can launch the following `DaemonSet` definition. This will run an `alpine` container on every host, which we will use to run a `ping` test between containers on all hosts.
|
||||
|
||||
1. Save the following file as `ds-alpine.yml`
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
apiVersion: apps/v1
|
||||
kind: DaemonSet
|
||||

command: ["sh", "-c", "tail -f /dev/null"]
|
||||
terminationMessagePath: /dev/termination-log
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
2. Launch it using `kubectl --kubeconfig kube_config_rancher-cluster.yml create -f ds-alpine.yml`
|
||||
3. Wait until `kubectl --kubeconfig kube_config_rancher-cluster.yml rollout status ds/alpine -w` returns: `daemon set "alpine" successfully rolled out`.
|
||||
4. Run the following command to let each container on every host ping each other (it's a single line command).
|
||||
|
||||
```

To debug issues around this error, you will need to download the command-line tool `kubectl`. See [Install and Set Up kubectl](https://kubernetes.io/docs/tasks/tools/install-kubectl/) how to download `kubectl` for your platform.
|
||||
|
||||
When you have made changes to `rancher-cluster.yml`, you will have to run `rke remove --config rancher-cluster.yml` to clean the nodes, so it cannot conflict with previous configuration errors.

### Failed to deploy addon execute job [rke-user-includes-addons]: Failed to get job complete status
|
||||
|
||||
Something is wrong in the addons definitions, you can run the following command to get the root cause in the logging of the job:
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
kubectl --kubeconfig kube_config_rancher-cluster.yml logs -l job-name=rke-user-addon-deploy-job -n kube-system
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
#### error: error converting YAML to JSON: yaml: line 9:
|
||||
|
||||
The structure of the addons definition in `rancher-cluster.yml` is wrong. In the different resources specified in the addons section, there is a error in the structure of the YAML. The pointer `yaml line 9` references to the line number of the addon that is causing issues.

<b>Things to check</b>
|
||||
<ul>
|
||||
<ul>
|
||||
<li>Is each of the base64 encoded certificate string placed directly after the key, for example: `tls.crt: LS01...`, there should be no newline/space before, in between or after.</li>
|
||||
<li>Is the YAML properly formatted, each indentation should be 2 spaces as shown in the template files.</li>
|
||||
<li>Verify the integrity of your certificate by running this command `cat MyCertificate | base64 -d` on Linux, `cat MyCertificate | base64 -D` on Mac OS . If any error exists, the command output will tell you.
|
||||
</ul>
|
||||
</ul>
|
||||
|
||||
#### Error from server (BadRequest): error when creating "/etc/config/rke-user-addon.yaml": Secret in version "v1" cannot be handled as a Secret
|
||||
|
||||
The base64 string of one of the certificate strings is wrong. The log message will try to show you what part of the string is not recognized as valid base64.
|
||||
|
||||
<b>Things to check</b>
|
||||
<ul>
|
||||
<ul>
|
||||
<li>Check if the base64 string is valid by running one of the commands below:</li>
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
# MacOS
|
||||
echo BASE64_CRT | base64 -D
|
||||
# Linux
|
||||
echo BASE64_CRT | base64 -d
|
||||
# Windows
|
||||
certutil -decode FILENAME.base64 FILENAME.verify
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
</ul>
|
||||
</ul>
|
||||
|
||||
#### The Ingress "cattle-ingress-http" is invalid: spec.rules[0].host: Invalid value: "IP": must be a DNS name, not an IP address
|
||||
|
||||
The host value can only contain a host name, as it is needed by the ingress controller to match the hostname and pass to the correct backend.
