alias: 

alias k="kubectl"
alias ks="kubectl --namespace kube-system"                                          # Kubernetes Events

For moving around namespaces fast 

alias kX="kubectl --name-sapce nameX"

dump all : 

kubectl get all --export=true -o yaml

( namespace kube-system not dumped )

list form: 

k get pods
k get rs # replica set
k get rc # replication controller

what are all the things ? 

kubectl api-resources

event sorted by time 

kubectl get events --sort-by=.metadata.creationTimestamp

what storage classes does my cluster support? 

k get storageclass

how are pod spread out over nodes: 

k describe node | grep -E '(^Non-t|m |^Name)' | more

( doesn't scale well, no indication of )

what deployments should be on what instance groups: 

kubectl get deploy --all-namespaces -o=jsonpath='{range .items[*]}{.metadata.name}{"\t"}{..nodeSelector}{"\n"}{end}' |sort

or the other way round ( ig first ) 

kubectl get deploy --all-namespaces -o=jsonpath='{range .items[*]}{..nodeSelector}{"\t"}{.metadata.name}{"\n"}{end}' |sort

if you used kops to deploy the cluster then nodes are labes with their instance groups, you can be more specific like this: 

k describe node -l kops.k8s.io/instancegroup=<instance group name> | grep -E '(^Non-t|m |^Name)' | more

how many nods in each instance group? ( tested under kops ) 

for i in `kops get ig 2>/dev/null| grep -v NAME | awk '{print $1}'`
do
echo $i
kubectl get nodes -l kops.k8s.io/instancegroup=$i
done

how many pods per node: 

k get pod -o wide | grep -v NAME | awk '{print $8}' | sort | uniq -c | sort -rn

k get pod --all-namespaces -o wide | grep -v NAME | awk '{print $8}' | sort | uniq -c | sort -rn

audit: who tried to do what? 

ks get pod | grep kube-apiserver-ip

ks logs $podname

who tried to scale unsuccessfully? 

ks logs $podname | grep scale | grep cloud | awk '$8!=200{print $0}'

Where is the service account token that I gave this pod?

It's in here: /var/run/secrets/kubernetes.io/serviceaccount/token

Scripting Scaling

Manually edit the replicas of a deployment from within the same namespace, but in a different pod:

  1. give the actor pod a service account ( possibly via it's deployment ).
  2. create a Role as below.
  3. create the RoleBinding to connect the ServiceAccount to the Role.

Now you have: Pod -> Deployment -> ServiceAccount -> RoleBinding -> Role

Now the Pod has permission to do what it needs. Very similar to AWS's "IAM Role" where you give an instance a role that has the permissions that it needs to operate.

Note that in this case "ClusterRole" and ClusterRoleBinding are not required. It's all namespaced to the namespace that your deployment is in. In this case: "default". 

export API_URL="https://${KUBERNETES_SERVICE_HOST}:${KUBERNETES_SERVICE_PORT}/${KUBE_ENDPOINT}"
export TOKEN=`cat /var/run/secrets/kubernetes.io/serviceaccount/token`
export CURL_CA_BUNDLE=/var/run/secrets/kubernetes.io/serviceaccount/ca.crt

curl \
 -H 'Accept: application/json' \
 -H "Authorization: Bearer $TOKEN" \
 $API_URL \
 > scale.json
# edit scale.json, set replicas to 4
curl -X PUT \
 -d@scale.json \
 -H 'Content-Type: application/json' \
 -H "Authorization: Bearer $TOKEN" \
 $API_URL

CURL_CA_BUNDLE - kubenerets is it's own CA, and presennts to each pod a ca bundle that makes ssl "in" the cluster valid.

This was the role that did it. FIXME: pare it down 

apiVersion: rbac.authorization.k8s.io/v1
kind: Role

On patching

There are a couple of way to change an object. 

export TOKEN=`cat /var/run/secrets/kubernetes.io/serviceaccount/token`
export CURL_CA_BUNDLE=/var/run/secrets/kubernetes.io/serviceaccount/ca.crt

1. dump whole "thing" , make change post object back ( as above ) GET -> PUT 

curl \
 -v \
 -H 'Accept: application/json' \
 -H "Authorization: Bearer $TOKEN" \
 $API_URL \
 > scale.json
# edit scale.json, set replicas to 4
curl -X PUT \
 -d@scale.json \
 -H 'Content-Type: application/json' \
 -H "Authorization: Bearer $TOKEN" \
 $API_URL

2. terse PATCH 

curl -sS \
 -X 'PATCH' \
 -H "Authorization: Bearer ${TOKEN}" \
 -H 'Content-Type: application/merge-patch+json' \
 $API_URL \
 -d '{"spec": {"replicas":  1}}'

3. old / full PATCH ?

reference: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/41792851/manage-replicas-count-for-deployment-using-kubernetes-api ( 1 year 8 months old at tie of _this_ writing )

Careful, compare:

BORKEN! 

PAYLOAD='[{"op":"replace","path":"/spec/replicas","value":"3"}]'
curl \
 -X PATCH \
 -d ${PAYLOAD} \
 -H 'Content-Type: application/json-patch+json' \
 -H "Authorization: Bearer ${TOKEN}" \
 $API_URL

WERKS! 

curl \
 -X PATCH \
 -d '[{"op":"replace","path":"/spec/replicas","value":3}]' \
 -H 'Content-Type: application/json-patch+json' \
 -H "Authorization: Bearer ${TOKEN}" \
 $API_URL

Closely: 

-d '[{"op":"replace","path":"/spec/replicas","value":"3"}]'  <- broken
-d '[{"op":"replace","path":"/spec/replicas","value":3}]' <- works

Template Examples

list images by pod: 

kubectl get pods --all-namespaces -o=jsonpath='{range .items[*]}{"\n"}{.metadata.name}{":\t"}{range .spec.containers[*]}{.image}{", "}{end}{end}{"\n"}'

list images by deploy 

kubectl get deploy -o=jsonpath='{range .items[*]}{"\n"}{.metadata.name}{":\t"}{range .spec.template.spec.containers[*]}{.image}{", "}{end}{end}{"\n"}'

list all deploy cpu nd mem requet: 

kubectl get deploy -o=jsonpath='{range .items[*]}{"\n"}{.metadata.name}{":\t"}{range .spec.template.spec.containers[*]}{.resources.requests.cpu}{", "}{.resources.requests.memory}{end}{end}{"\n"}'

list nodeslectors for all deploys: 

kubectl get deploy -o=jsonpath='{range .items[*]}{"\n"}{.metadata.name}{":\t"}{.spec.template.spec.nodeSelector}{end}{"\n"}'

all nodes by their condition statuses: 

kubectl get nodes -o=jsonpath='{range .items[*]}{@.metadata.name}:{"\n"}{range @.status.conditions[*]}{"\t"}{@.type}={@.status};{"\n"}{end}{end}{"\n"}'

Note the double loop.

examine the resource requesnt and limit for all deploys: 

kubectl get deploy -o=jsonpath='{range .items[*]}{@.metadata.name}{range @.spec.template.spec.containers[*]}{@.resources.request.cpu}{@.resources.request.memory}{@.resources.limits.cpu}{@.resources.limits.memory}{"\n"}{end}{end}{"\n"}'


WIP

metrics

wget "$(kubectl config view -o jsonpath='{range .clusters[*]}{@.cluster.server}{"\n"}{end}')"

also: 

k top nodes
k top pods

exec notes

k exec -it $i -- bash -c "set | grep ENVVARX"

Troubleshooting

Pod

pod starts and dies too quick, inthe deployment, stateuleset, or deamonset overrid the command and args with this:

look at logs:

put this in a deployment so that you can exec into a failing pod and see what it's upto: 

       command: ["/bin/sh"]
       args: ["-c", "while true; do date; sleep 10;done"]

the pod will come up and stay up long enugh for you to get in and look around.

this only works with a pod that has enough of an operating system for you to do that . Like bash ps ls cd and such tools. Some very slim containers do not have those tools.

kube Api server

You want to see what is up with the api server. If there is a problem with the cluster the api server is going to give you a better view.

by default -v ( verbose ) is not set.

in this example we are using KOPS to make the kubenertes cluster, so to change the api server config we need to edit the cluster_spec. 

kops edit cluster

add a section 

apiServer:
 LogLevel: X

This adds --v=X to the api server command line.

I had something pounding the server with a bad token , ut the log only said: "Bad token"... who ?

Had to turn loglevel up to 20 to get to the bottom of it... it was a bad fluentd token ( wish fluentd had some sort of back-off. )

Note that a kops update showed "no changed required".

I could force it, but instead, I used the "small change" trick Kops#Tricks_for_making_small_updates_to_a_host

Practices and Guidelines

https://medium.com/devopslinks/security-problems-of-kops-default-deployments-2819c157bc90

  • Do not use replication controllers, instead use replica sets
  • when changing the shape of the cluster , number and type of instance groups , you will use kops edit ig <ig name> , but don't for get to update the cluster-autoscaler config ( ks edit deploy cluster-autoscaler )

HPA broken

Blue is test

Blue env: 

Client Version: v1.12.2
Server Version: v1.10.6

Prod env: 

Client Version: v1.12.2
Server Version: v1.9.8

In prod HPAs work. When I ask for them I see: 

NAME                        REFERENCE                              TARGETS   MINPODS   MAXPODS   REPLICAS   AGE

In blue env they don't work, I see: 

NAME                        REFERENCE                              TARGETS   MINPODS   MAXPODS   REPLICAS   AGE

in Kubernetes events we see: 

HorizontalPodAutoscaler Warning FailedGetResourceMetric horizontal-pod-autoscaler unable to get metrics for resource cpu: no metrics returned from resource metrics API

Note that the metrics server is running in kube-system, but there are no repo files for that in /third-party" in prod.

In blue we store all metrics-server related files in /thirdpary/metrics-server ( taken from git@github.com:kubernetes-incubator/metrics-server.git )

In prod the deployment has: 

      - command:
        - /metrics-server
        - --source=kubernetes.summary_api:''

In blue this seemed to do the trick 

          - /metrics-server
          - --kubelet-preferred-address-types=InternalIP
          - --kubelet-insecure-tls

Cluster Scaling

ks get configmap cluster-autoscaler-status -o yaml


https://github.com/kubernetes/autoscaler/blob/master/cluster-autoscaler/FAQ.md

Steps to move hardware around

In this case we are removing the last node from an instance group and then removing the instance group.

Reference: https://kubernetes.io/docs/concepts/architecture/nodes/

1. Cordon the node 

k cordon ip-xx-xx-xx-xx.region.compute.internal

No new pods will be deployed here.

2. drain ( move pods here to somewhere else ) 

k drain ip-xx-xx-xx-xx.region.compute.internal

You may need to add "--ignore-daemonsets" if you have daemonsets running ( data dog , localredis )

You may need to "--delete-local-data" if you have a metrics server on this node. BE CAREFUL. You will loose metrics, but probably you have an "out of cluster" place where metrics are stored ( datadog, elastic search, etc )

3. remove the nodegroup from the autoscaler: 

ks edit deploy cluster-autoscaler

4. tell kops to delete the instance group. 

kops delete ig myig

at this point the vms will be shut down. 

k get nodes

Downing nodes

kubectl drain <node name> --delete-local-data --force --ignore-daemonsets 
kubectl delete node <node name>

Kubeadm way

1. light up some instances:

if you are using amzn linux you can cloud-init like this: 

yum_repos:
    # The name of the repository
    kubernetes:
        # Any repository configuration options
        # See: man yum.conf
        #
        # This one is required!
        baseurl: https://packages.cloud.google.com/yum/repos/kubernetes-el7-x86_64
        enabled: true
        gpgcheck: true
        gpgkey:
         - https://packages.cloud.google.com/yum/doc/yum-key.gpg
         - https://packages.cloud.google.com/yum/doc/rpm-package-key.gpg
        name: kubernetes


packages:
 - curl
 - git 
 - iproute-tc 
 - jq
 - kubeadm
 - kubectl
 - kubelet
 - lsof
 - mlocate
 - ntp 
 - screen
 - strace
 - sysstat
 - tcpdump
 - telnet
 - traceroute
 - tree
 - unzip
 - wget

runcmd:
  - [ /usr/bin/updatedb ]
  - [ 'amazon-linux-extras', 'install', 'docker', '-y' ]
  - [ 'setenforce', '0']
  - [ 'systemctl', 'enable', 'docker']
  - [ 'systemctl', 'start', 'docker' ]
  - [ 'systemctl', 'enable', 'kubelet']
  - [ 'systemctl', 'start', 'kubelet' ]

write_files:
  - content: |
      net.bridge.bridge-nf-call-ip6tables = 1
      net.bridge.bridge-nf-call-iptables = 1
    path: /etc/sysctl.d/k8s.conf
    permissions: '0755'
    owner: root:root
  - content: |
      SERVER=$(/usr/bin/aws ec2 describe-tags --region us-east-1 --filters "Name=resource-id,Values=$(wget -q -O - http://169.254.169.254/latest/meta-data/instance-id)" "Name=key,Values=Name" --query 'Tags[*].Value' --output text)
      PRIVATE_IP=$(curl http://169.254.169.254/latest/meta-data/local-ipv4)
      # if hostname was set this would work, but hostname is not set
      # sed -i "s/^\(HOSTNAME\s*=\s*\).*$/\1$SERVER/" /etc/sysconfig/network
      echo "HOSTNAME=$SERVER" >> /etc/sysconfig/network
      echo "$PRIVATE_IP $SERVER" >> /etc/hosts
      echo "$SERVER" > /etc/hostname
      hostname $SERVER
    path: /root/sethostname.sh
    permissions: '0755'
    owner: root:root

on the first instance, do a 

kubeadm init

and save the output.

run that output on the other instances.

boom! a kubernetes cluster...

what is it missing ?

  • your app
  • logging
  • monitoring
  • dashboard

taints

Still learning about this . 

kubectl get nodes -o json | jq .items[].spec.taints

Kubernetes dashboard

get the token for the service account to loggin to the web ui: 

ks get secret `ks get sa kubernetes-dashboard -o=jsonpath='{.secrets[0].name}'` -o=jsonpath='{.data.token}' | base64 -d ; echo

Datadog

what version of data dog am I running ?

do this: 

kubectl get pods -l app=datadog-agent -o=jsonpath='{range .items[*]}{"\n"}{.metadata.name}{":\t"}{range .spec.containers[*]}{.image}{", "}{end}{end}{"\n"}'

and get "latest"! except what does that mean?

instead ask the agent itself: 

for i in `kubectl get pods -l app=datadog-agent | awk '{print $1}' | grep -v NAME `; do echo $i; k exec -it $i -- /opt/datadog-agent/bin/agent/agent version; done
datadog-agent-XXXX
Agent X.X.X - Commit: XXX - Serialization version: X.X.X
datadog-agent-YYYY
Agent X.X.Y - Commit: XXX - Serialization version: X.X.X

ah ah! inconsistant versions! can be fixed with a ds delete -> k apply, or even just a pod kill.

TCPDump a container

or pod.

Reference:

https://community.pivotal.io/s/article/How-to-get-tcpdump-for-containers-inside-Kubernetes-pods

Get the container ID and host.
k get pod XXX -o=jsonpath='{.status.containerStatuses[0].containerID}{"\n"}{.status.hostIP}{"\n"}'
docker://YYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY
Z.Z.Z.Z
get the interface index
docker exec XXX cat /sys/class/net/eth0/iflink
<NUMBER>
find the interface on the host
ip link |grep ^<NUMBER>:


On those dump that interface
tcpdump -i veth235ab8ff
