# Worker Pools Typhoon AWS, Azure, and Google Cloud allow additional groups of workers to be defined and joined to a cluster. For example, add worker pools of instances with different types, disk sizes, Container Linux channels, or preemptibility modes. Internal Terraform Modules: * `aws/container-linux/kubernetes/workers` * `aws/fedora-atomic/kubernetes/workers` * `azure/container-linux/kubernetes/workers` * `google-cloud/container-linux/kubernetes/workers` * `google-cloud/fedora-atomic/kubernetes/workers` ## AWS Create a cluster following the AWS [tutorial](../cl/aws.md#cluster). Define a worker pool using the AWS internal `workers` module. ```tf module "tempest-worker-pool" { source = "git::https://github.com/poseidon/typhoon//aws/container-linux/kubernetes/workers?ref=v1.13.0" providers = { aws = "aws.default" } # AWS vpc_id = "${module.aws-tempest.vpc_id}" subnet_ids = "${module.aws-tempest.subnet_ids}" security_groups = "${module.aws-tempest.worker_security_groups}" # configuration name = "tempest-worker-pool" kubeconfig = "${module.aws-tempest.kubeconfig}" ssh_authorized_key = "${var.ssh_authorized_key}" # optional count = 2 instance_type = "m5.large" os_image = "coreos-beta" } ``` Apply the change. ``` terraform apply ``` Verify an auto-scaling group of workers joins the cluster within a few minutes. ### Variables The AWS internal `workers` module supports a number of [variables](https://github.com/poseidon/typhoon/blob/master/aws/container-linux/kubernetes/workers/variables.tf). #### Required | Name | Description | Example | |:-----|:------------|:--------| | name | Unique name (distinct from cluster name) | "tempest-m5s" | | vpc_id | Must be set to `vpc_id` output by cluster | "${module.cluster.vpc_id}" | | subnet_ids | Must be set to `subnet_ids` output by cluster | "${module.cluster.subnet_ids}" | | security_groups | Must be set to `worker_security_groups` output by cluster | "${module.cluster.worker_security_groups}" | | kubeconfig | Must be set to `kubeconfig` output by cluster | "${module.cluster.kubeconfig}" | | ssh_authorized_key | SSH public key for user 'core' | "ssh-rsa AAAAB3NZ..." | #### Optional | Name | Description | Default | Example | |:-----|:------------|:--------|:--------| | count | Number of instances | 1 | 3 | | instance_type | EC2 instance type | "t2.small" | "t2.medium" | | os_image | AMI channel for a Container Linux derivative | coreos-stable | coreos-stable, coreos-beta, coreos-alpha, flatcar-stable, flatcar-beta, flatcar-alpha | | disk_size | Size of the disk in GB | 40 | 100 | | spot_price | Spot price in USD for workers.

Define a worker pool using the Azure internal `workers` module. ```tf module "ramius-worker-pool" { source = "git::https://github.com/poseidon/typhoon//azure/container-linux/kubernetes/workers?ref=v1.13.0" providers = { azurerm = "azurerm.default" } # Azure region = "${module.azure-ramius.region}" resource_group_name = "${module.azure-ramius.resource_group_name}" subnet_id = "${module.azure-ramius.subnet_id}" security_group_id = "${module.azure-ramius.security_group_id}" backend_address_pool_id = "${module.azure-ramius.backend_address_pool_id}" # configuration name = "ramius-low-priority" kubeconfig = "${module.azure-ramius.kubeconfig}" ssh_authorized_key = "${var.ssh_authorized_key}" # optional count = 2 vm_type = "Standard_F4" priority = "Low" } ``` Apply the change. ``` terraform apply ``` Verify a scale set of workers joins the cluster within a few minutes. ### Variables The Azure internal `workers` module supports a number of [variables](https://github.com/poseidon/typhoon/blob/master/azure/container-linux/kubernetes/workers/variables.tf). #### Required | Name | Description | Example | |:-----|:------------|:--------| | name | Unique name (distinct from cluster name) | "ramius-f4" | | region | Must be set to `region` output by cluster | "${module.cluster.region}" | | resource_group_name | Must be set to `resource_group_name` output by cluster | "${module.cluster.resource_group_name}" | | subnet_id | Must be set to `subnet_id` output by cluster | "${module.cluster.subnet_id}" | | security_group_id | Must be set to `security_group_id` output by cluster | "${module.cluster.security_group_id}" | | backend_address_pool_id | Must be set to `backend_address_pool_id` output by cluster | "${module.cluster.backend_address_pool_id}" | | kubeconfig | Must be set to `kubeconfig` output by cluster | "${module.cluster.kubeconfig}" | | ssh_authorized_key | SSH public key for user 'core' | "ssh-rsa AAAAB3NZ..." | #### Optional | Name | Description | Default | Example | |:-----|:------------|:--------|:--------| | count | Number of instances | 1 | 3 | | vm_type | Machine type for instances | "Standard_F1" | See below | | os_image | Channel for a Container Linux derivative | coreos-stable | coreos-stable, coreos-beta, coreos-alpha | | priority | Set priority to Low to use reduced cost surplus capacity, with the tradeoff that instances can be deallocated at any time | Regular | Low | | clc_snippets | Container Linux Config snippets | [] | [example](/advanced/customization/#usage) | | service_cidr | CIDR IPv4 range to assign to Kubernetes services | "10.3.0.0/16" | "10.3.0.0/24" | | cluster_domain_suffix | FQDN suffix for Kubernetes services answered by coredns. | "cluster.local" | "k8s.example.com" | Check the list of valid [machine types](https://azure.microsoft.com/en-us/pricing/details/virtual-machines/linux/) and their [specs](https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/virtual-machines/linux/sizes-general).
