libvirt-k8s-provisioner - Automate your cluster provisioning from 0 to k8s!

Welcome to the home of the project!

With this project, you can build up in minutes a fully working k8s cluster (single master/HA) with as many worker nodes as you want.

Kubernetes version that is installed can be choosen between:

  • 1.22 - Latest 1.22 release (1.22.1) - ** WARNING! Rancher is not supported yet by helm chart **
  • 1.21 - Latest 1.21 release (1.21.5)
  • 1.20 - Latest 1.20 release (1.20.11)
  • 1.19 - Latest 1.19 release (1-19.15)

Terraform will take care of the provisioning of:

  • Loadbalancer machine with haproxy installed and configured for HA clusters
  • k8s Master(s) VM(s)
  • k8s Worker(s) VM(s)

It also takes care of preparing the host machine with needed packages, configuring:

  • dedicated libvirt dnsmasq configuration
  • dedicated libvirt network (fully customizable)
  • dedicated libvirt storage pool (fully customizable)
  • terraform 1.0.5
  • libvirt-terraform-provider ( compiled and initialized based on https://github.com/dmacvicar/terraform-provider-libvirt)

You can customize the setup choosing:

  • container runtime that you want to use (docker, cri-o, containerd).
  • schedulable master if you want to schedule on your master nodes or leave the taint.
  • service CIDR to be used during installation.
  • pod CIDR to be used during installation.
  • network plugin to be used, based on the documentation. Project Calico Flannel Project Cilium
  • additional SANS to be added to api-server
  • NFS Server creation for exporting shares to be used as PVs
  • nginx-ingress-controller, haproxy-ingress-controller or Project Contour if you want to enable ingress management.
  • Rancher installation to manage your cluster. Working up to 1.21
  • metalLB to manage bare-metal LoadBalancer services - WIP - Only L2 configuration can be set-up via playbook.
  • Rook-Ceph - WIP - To be improved, current rook-ceph cluster size is fixed to 3 nodes

All VMs are specular,prepared with:

The user is capable of logging via SSH too.

Quickstart

The playbook is meant to be ran against a local host or a remote host that has access to subnets that will be created, defined under vm_host group, depending on how many clusters you want to configure at once.

First of all, you need to install required collections to get started:

ansible-galaxy collection install -r requirements.yml

Once the collections are installed, you can simply run the playbook:

ansible-playbook main.yml

You can quickly make it work by configuring the needed vars, but you can go straight with the defaults!

You can also install your cluster using the Makefile with:

To install collections:

make setup

To install the cluster:

make create

Recommended sizings are:

Role vCPU RAM
master 2 2G
worker 2 2G

vars/k8s_cluster.yml

General configuration

k8s:
  cluster_name: k8s-test
  cluster_os: Ubuntu
  cluster_version: 1.22
  container_runtime: crio
  master_schedulable: false

# Nodes configuration

  control_plane:
    vcpu: 2
    mem: 2 
    vms: 3
    disk: 30

  worker_nodes:
    vcpu: 1
    mem: 2
    vms: 1
    disk: 30

# Network configuration

  network:
    network_cidr: 192.168.200.0/24
    domain: k8s.test
    additional_san: ""
    pod_cidr: 10.20.0.0/16
    service_cidr: 10.110.0.0/16
    cni_plugin: calico

# Rook configuration
storage:
  nfs:
    nfs_enabled: true
    nfs_fsSize: 50GB
    nfs_export: /srv/k8s


rook_ceph:
  install_rook: false
  volume_size: 50
      rook_cluster_size: 1

# Ingress controller configuration [nginx/haproxy]

ingress_controller:
  install_ingress_controller: true
  type: haproxy
      node_port:
        http: 31080
        https: 31443    

# Section for Rancher setup

rancher:
  install_rancher: true
  ingress_hostname: "rancher.k8s.test"

# Section for metalLB setup

metallb:
  install_metallb: false
  l2:
    iprange: 192.168.200.210-192.168.200.250

Size for disk and mem is in GB. disk allows to provision space in the cloud image for pod's ephemeral storage.

cluster_version can be 1.19, 1.20, 1.21 or 1.22 to install the corresponding latest version for the release

VMS are created with these names by default (customizing them is work in progress):

- **cluster_name**-loadbalancer.**domain**
- **cluster_name**-master-N.**domain**
- **cluster_name**-worker-N.**domain**

It is possible to choose CentOS/Ubuntu as kubernetes hosts OS

Multiple clusters - Thanks to @3rd-st-ninja for the input

Since last release, it is now possible to provision multiple clusters on the same host. Each cluster will be self consistent and will have its own folder under the clusters folder in playbook root folder.

clusters
└── k8s-provisioner
	├── admin.kubeconfig
	├── haproxy.cfg
	├── id_rsa
	├── id_rsa.pub
	├── libvirt-resources
	│   ├── libvirt-resources.tf
	│   └── terraform.tfstate
	├── loadbalancer
	│   ├── cloud_init.cfg
	│   ├── k8s-loadbalancer.tf
	│   └── terraform.tfstate

	│   └── terraform.tfstate
	└── workers-rook
	    ├── cloud_init.cfg
	    └── k8s-workers.tf

In the main folder will be provided a custom script for removing the single cluster, without touching others.

k8s-provisioner-cleanup-playbook.yml

As well as a separated inventory for each cluster:

k8s-provisioner-inventory-k8s

In order to keep clusters separated, ensure that you use a different k8s.cluster_name,k8s.network.domain and k8s.network.network_cidr variables.

Rook

Rook setup actually creates a dedicated kind of worker, with an additional volume on the VMs that are required. Now it is possible to select the size of Rook cluster using rook_ceph.rook_cluster_size variable in the settings.

Rancher

Basic setup is made starting from Rancher documentation, with Helm chart. Rancher is not supported on 1.22 at this time

MetalLB

Basic setup taken from the documentation. At the moment, the parameter l2 reports the IPs that can be used (defaults to some IPs in the same subnet of the hosts) as 'external' IPs for accessing the applications

Suggestion and improvements are highly recommended! Alex
