Kubernetes cluster recipes not seeing nodes

GabrielG

There is no need to copy this file into the worker nodes.

Were you able to see or capture any error message during the installation?

fred974

@GabrielG the installation took a very long time so I left it. When I came back only the master was up and running. The nodes were down. I powered them up manually

fred974

@GabrielG Do you have any suggestion on how to fix the cluster?

GabrielG

It's hard to say without knowing what went wrong during the installation.

First, I would say to check if the config file /home/debian/.kube/config is the same as /etc/kubernetes/admin.conf and if debian is correctly assign as the owner of the file.

fred974

@GabrielG the file content are identical but the file ownership is different. admin.conf is owned by root and not 'debian'. Should it be debian?

debian@master:~/.kube$ pwd
/home/debian/.kube

debian@master:~/.kube$ ls -la

No, only the /home/debian/.kube/config is meant to be owned by debian user.

Are you using kubectl with debian user or with the root user?

@GabrielG said in Kubernetes cluster recipes not seeing nodes:

I was using the root account I tried with the debian user and I now get something

debian@master:~$ kubectl get nodes
NAME     STATUS   ROLES           AGE     VERSION
master   Ready    control-plane   5d23h   v1.26.3
node-2   Ready    <none>          5d23h   v1.26.3

I have created a cluster with 1x master and 3x nodes. Should the output of the command above return 2 nodes?

GabrielG

Yes, you should have something like that:

debian@master:~$ kubectl get nodes
NAME     STATUS   ROLES           AGE     VERSION
master   Ready    control-plane   6m52s   v1.26.3
node-1   Ready    <none>          115s    v1.26.3
node-2   Ready    <none>          2m47s   v1.26.3
node-3   Ready    <none>          2m36s   v1.26.3

Are all worker nodes vm started? What's the output of kubectl get events?

fred974

@GabrielG Sorry for the late reply. Here is what I have.

debian@master:~$ kubectl get nodes
NAME     STATUS   ROLES           AGE     VERSION
master   Ready    control-plane   7d22h   v1.26.3
node-2   Ready    <none>          7d22h   v1.26.3

and

debian@master:~$ kubectl get events
No resources found in default namespace.

GabrielG

Thank you.

Are all VMs started?

What's the output of kubectl get pods --all-namespaces?

@GabrielG said in Kubernetes cluster recipes not seeing nodes:

Yes, all the VMs are up and running

Thank you very much

@GabrielG Do you think I should delete all the VMs and reun the deploy recipe again? Also is it normal that I no longer have the option to set a network CIDR like before?

GabrielG

You can do that but it won't help us to understand what when wrong during the installation of the worker nodes 1 and 3.

Can you show me what's the output of sudo cat /var/log/messages for each nodes (master and workers)?

Concerning the CIDR, we are now using flannel as Container Network Interface, which uses a default CIDR (10.244.0.0/16) allocated to the pods network.

From the master:

debian@master:~$ sudo cat /var/log/messages
Mar 26 00:10:18 master rsyslogd: [origin software="rsyslogd" swVersion="8.2102.0" x-pid="572" x-info="https://www.rsyslog.com"] rsyslogd was HUPed
