Kubernetes : Add Control Plane Node2024/06/07

Add new Control Plane Nodes to existing Kubernetes Cluster.

This example is based on the cluster environment like follows.
It adds [dlp-1.srv.world (10.0.0.31)] as Control Plane Node to this cluster.

*Note
When etcd is started on the Control Plane, the fault tolerance of etcd is 0 for 1-2 units, so in a configuration with 2 Control Planes, if one of them goes down, it will no longer be possible to connect to etcd and the cluster will not be able to be used normally.

        eth0|10.0.0.25             eth0|10.0.0.30

[1]	On a new Node, Configure common settings to join in Cluster, refer to here.
[2]	Add proxy setting for new Control Plane on Manager Node.

root@ctrl:~#

vi /etc/nginx/nginx.conf

# add new Control Plane
stream {
    upstream k8s-api {
        server 10.0.0.30:6443;
        server 10.0.0.31:6443;
    }
    server {
        listen 6443;
        proxy_pass k8s-api;
    }
}

root@ctrl:~#

systemctl reload nginx

[3]	Confirm join command on existing Control Plane Node and also transfer certificate files to new Node with any user.

root@dlp:~#

cd /etc/kubernetes/pki

root@dlp:/etc/kubernetes/pki#

tar czvf kube-certs.tar.gz sa.pub sa.key ca.crt ca.key front-proxy-ca.crt front-proxy-ca.key etcd/ca.crt etcd/ca.key

root@dlp:/etc/kubernetes/pki#

scp kube-certs.tar.gz ubuntu@10.0.0.31:/tmp

root@dlp:/etc/kubernetes/pki#

kubeadm token create --print-join-command

kubeadm join 10.0.0.25:6443 --token h8bpe5.ank6u1ui211x4e5z --discovery-token-ca-cert-hash sha256:9cb21e3807780e1acf9ad9b6369ce54b1141ecf007d099675b23b6c3368494c9

[4]	Run join command you confirmed on a new Node with [--control-plane] option.

# copy certificates transferred from existing Control Plane

root@dlp-1:~#

mkdir /etc/kubernetes/pki

root@dlp-1:~#

tar zxvf /tmp/kube-certs.tar.gz -C /etc/kubernetes/pki

root@dlp-1:~#

kubeadm join 10.0.0.25:6443 --token h8bpe5.ank6u1ui211x4e5z \
--discovery-token-ca-cert-hash sha256:9cb21e3807780e1acf9ad9b6369ce54b1141ecf007d099675b23b6c3368494c9 \
--control-plane

[preflight] Running pre-flight checks
[preflight] Reading configuration from the cluster...
[preflight] FYI: You can look at this config file with 'kubectl -n kube-system get cm kubeadm-config -o yaml'
[preflight] Running pre-flight checks before initializing the new control plane instance
[preflight] Pulling images required for setting up a Kubernetes cluster
[preflight] This might take a minute or two, depending on the speed of your internet connection
[preflight] You can also perform this action in beforehand using 'kubeadm config images pull'

.....
.....

This node has joined the cluster and a new control plane instance was created:

* Certificate signing request was sent to apiserver and approval was received.
* The Kubelet was informed of the new secure connection details.
* Control plane label and taint were applied to the new node.
* The Kubernetes control plane instances scaled up.
* A new etcd member was added to the local/stacked etcd cluster.

To start administering your cluster from this node, you need to run the following as a regular user:

        mkdir -p $HOME/.kube
        sudo cp -i /etc/kubernetes/admin.conf $HOME/.kube/config
        sudo chown $(id -u):$(id -g) $HOME/.kube/config

Run 'kubectl get nodes' to see this node join the cluster.

[5]	Verify settings on Manager Node. That's OK if the status of new Node turns to [STATUS = Ready].

root@ctrl:~#

kubectl get nodes
