Google Cloud

!!! danger Typhoon for Fedora Atomic is alpha. Fedora does not publish official images for Google Cloud so you must prepare them yourself. Expect rough edges and changes.

In this tutorial, we'll create a Kubernetes v1.13.4 cluster on Google Compute Engine with Fedora Atomic.

We'll declare a Kubernetes cluster using the Typhoon Terraform module. Then apply the changes to create a network, firewall rules, health checks, controller instances, worker managed instance group, load balancers, and TLS assets. Instances are provisioned on first boot with cloud-init.

Controllers are provisioned to run an etcd peer and a kubelet service. Workers run just a kubelet service. A one-time bootkube bootstrap schedules the apiserver, scheduler, controller-manager, and coredns on controllers and schedules kube-proxy and calico (or flannel) on every node. A generated kubeconfig provides kubectl access to the cluster.

Requirements

  • Google Cloud Account and Service Account
  • Google Cloud DNS Zone (registered main Name or delegated subdomain)
  • Terraform v0.11.x installed locally
  • gcloud and gsutil for uploading a disk image to Google Cloud (temporary)

Terraform Setup

Install Terraform v0.11.x on your system.

$ terraform version
Terraform v0.11.7

Read concepts to learn about Terraform, modules, and organizing resources. Change to your infrastructure repository (e.g. infra).

cd infra/clusters

Provider

Login to your Google Console API Manager and select a project, or signup if you don't have an account.

Select "Credentials" and create a service account key. Choose the "Compute Engine Admin" and "DNS Administrator" roles and save the JSON private key to a file that can be referenced in configs.

mv ~/Downloads/project-id-43048204.json ~/.config/google-cloud/terraform.json

Configure the Google Cloud provider to use your service account key, project-id, and region in a providers.tf file.

provider "google" {
  version = "2.0.0"
  alias   = "default"

  credentials = "${file("~/.config/google-cloud/terraform.json")}"
  project     = "project-id"
  region      = "us-central1"
}

provider "local" {
  version = "~> 1.0"
  alias = "default"
}

provider "null" {
  version = "~> 1.0"
  alias = "default"
}

provider "template" {
  version = "~> 1.0"
  alias = "default"
}

provider "tls" {
  version = "~> 1.0"
  alias = "default"
}

Additional configuration options are described in the google provider docs.

!!! tip Regions are listed in docs or with gcloud compute regions list. A project may container multiple clusters across different regions.

Atomic Image

Project Atomic does not publish official Fedora Atomic images to Google Cloud. However, Google Cloud allows custom boot images to be uploaded to a bucket and imported into your project.

Download the Fedora Atomic 28 raw image and decompress the file.

xz -d Fedora-AtomicHost-28-20180528.0.x86_64.raw.xz

!!! warning Download the exact dated version shown in docs. Fedora has no official Atomic images for Google Cloud. We've verified specific versions and found others to have problems.

Rename the image disk.raw. Gzip compress and tar the image.

mv Fedora-AtomicHost-28-20180528.0.x86_64.raw disk.raw
tar cvzf fedora-atomic-28.tar.gz disk.raw

List available storage buckets and upload the tar.gz.

gsutil list
gsutil cp fedora-atomic-28.tar.gz gs://BUCKET_NAME

Create a Google Compute Engine image from the bucket file.

gcloud compute images list
gcloud compute images create fedora-atomic-28 --source-uri gs://BUCKET/fedora-atomic-28.tar.gz

Note your project id and the image name for setting os_image later (e.g. proj-id/fedora-atomic-28).

Cluster

Define a Kubernetes cluster using the module google-cloud/fedora-atomic/kubernetes.

module "google-cloud-yavin" {
  source = "git::https://github.com/poseidon/typhoon//google-cloud/fedora-atomic/kubernetes?ref=v1.13.4"
  
  providers = {
    google   = "google.default"
    local    = "local.default"
    null     = "null.default"
    template = "template.default"
    tls      = "tls.default"
  }

  # Google Cloud
  cluster_name  = "yavin"
  region        = "us-central1"
  dns_zone      = "example.com"
  dns_zone_name = "example-zone"

  # configuration
  ssh_authorized_key = "ssh-rsa AAAAB3Nz..."
  asset_dir          = "/home/user/.secrets/clusters/yavin"
  os_image           = "MY-PROJECT_ID/fedora-atomic-28"
  
  # optional
  worker_count = 2
}

Reference the variables docs or the variables.tf source.

ssh-agent

Initial bootstrapping requires bootkube.service be started on one controller node. Terraform uses ssh-agent to automate this step. Add your SSH private key to ssh-agent.

ssh-add ~/.ssh/id_rsa
ssh-add -L

Apply

Initialize the config directory if this is the first use with Terraform.

terraform init

Plan the resources to be created.

$ terraform plan
Plan: 73 to add, 0 to change, 0 to destroy.

Apply the changes to create the cluster.

$ terraform apply
module.google-cloud-yavin.null_resource.bootkube-start: Still creating... (10s elapsed)
...

module.google-cloud-yavin.null_resource.bootkube-start: Still creating... (5m30s elapsed)
module.google-cloud-yavin.null_resource.bootkube-start: Still creating... (5m40s elapsed)
module.google-cloud-yavin.null_resource.bootkube-start: Creation complete (ID: 5768638456220583358)

Apply complete! Resources: 73 added, 0 changed, 0 destroyed.

In 5-10 minutes, the Kubernetes cluster will be ready.

Verify

Install kubectl on your system. Use the generated kubeconfig credentials to access the Kubernetes cluster and list nodes.

$ export KUBECONFIG=/home/user/.secrets/clusters/yavin/auth/kubeconfig
$ kubectl get nodes
NAME                                       ROLES              STATUS  AGE  VERSION

yavin-worker-mzdm.c.example-com.internal   node               Ready   5m   v1.13.4

Variables

Check the variables.tf source.

Required

Name Description Example
cluster_name Unique cluster name (prepended to dns_zone) "yavin"
region Google Cloud region "us-central1"
dns_zone Google Cloud DNS zone "google-cloud.example.com"
dns_zone_name Google Cloud DNS zone name "example-zone"
os_image Custom uploaded Fedora Atomic image "PROJECT-ID/fedora-atomic-28"
ssh_authorized_key SSH public key for user 'fedora' "ssh-rsa AAAAB3NZ..."
asset_dir Path to a directory where generated assets should be placed (contains secrets) "/home/user/.secrets/clusters/yavin"

Check the list of valid regions.

DNS Zone

Clusters create a DNS A record ${cluster_name}.${dns_zone} to resolve a network load balancer backed by controller instances. This FQDN is used by workers and kubectl to access the apiserver(s). In this example, the cluster's apiserver would be accessible at yavin.google-cloud.example.com.

You'll need a registered domain name or delegated subdomain on Google Cloud DNS. You can set this up once and create many clusters with unique names.

resource "google_dns_managed_zone" "zone-for-clusters" {
  dns_name    = "google-cloud.example.com."
  name        = "example-zone"
  description = "Production DNS zone"
}

!!! tip "" If you have an existing domain name with a zone file elsewhere, just delegate a subdomain that can be managed on Google Cloud (e.g. google-cloud.mydomain.com) and update nameservers.

Optional

Name Description Default Example
controller_count Number of controllers (i.e. masters) 1 3
worker_count Number of workers 1 3
controller_type Machine type for controllers "n1-standard-1" See below
worker_type Machine type for workers "n1-standard-1" See below
disk_size Size of the disk in GB 40 100
worker_preemptible If enabled, Compute Engine will terminate workers randomly within 24 hours false true
networking Choice of networking provider "calico" "calico" or "flannel"
pod_cidr CIDR IPv4 range to assign to Kubernetes pods "10.2.0.0/16" "10.22.0.0/16"
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.

Preemption

Add worker_preemeptible = "true" to allow worker nodes to be preempted at random, but pay significantly less. Clusters tolerate stopping instances fairly well (reschedules pods, but cannot drain) and preemption provides a nice reward for running fault-tolerant cluster systems.`
