Kubo/CFCR on Bosh Lite

This is a guide to install Kubo on BOSH Lite

Requirements

• Virtualbox

Bosh Lite Installation

1. First checkout the bosh-deployment and kubo-bosh-lite repos

   git clone https://github.com/cloudfoundry/bosh-deployment 
   git clone https://github.com/bstick12/kubo-bosh-lite.git

2. Create a directory to store the our state and credentials

   mkdir kubo

3. Create BOSH deployment. Kubo has some additional requirements to the standard BOSH lite installation.

   • uaa
   • credhub

   bosh create-env bosh-deployment/bosh.yml \
   --state kubo/state.json \
   -o bosh-deployment/virtualbox/cpi.yml \
   -o bosh-deployment/virtualbox/outbound-network.yml \
   -o bosh-deployment/bosh-lite.yml \
   -o bosh-deployment/bosh-lite-runc.yml \
   -o bosh-deployment/jumpbox-user.yml \
   -o bosh-deployment/local-dns.yml \
   -o kubo-bosh-lite/ops/dns-addresses.yml \
   -o bosh-deployment/uaa.yml \
   -o bosh-deployment/credhub.yml \
   --vars-store kubo/creds.yml \
   -v director_name="kubo-bosh-lite" \
   -v internal_ip=192.168.50.6 \
   -v internal_gw=192.168.50.1 \
   -v internal_cidr=192.168.50.0/24 \
   -v dns_recursor_ip=192.168.50.6 \
   -v outbound_network_name=NatNetwork

4. Get the admin password from the kubo/creds.yml and then login to your BOSH environment

   export BOSH_CLIENT=admin
   export BOSH_CLIENT_SECRET=$(bosh int kubo/creds.yml --path /admin_password)
   bosh -e 192.168.50.6 login --ca-cert <(bosh int kubo/creds.yml --path /director_ssl/ca) 

5. Create a alias kubo for the BOSH environment

   bosh -e 192.168.50.6 alias-env kubo --ca-cert <(bosh int kubo/creds.yml --path /director_ssl/ca)

6. Update runtime config for bosh-dns

   bosh -e kubo update-runtime-config -n bosh-deployment/runtime-configs/dns.yml

7. Upload the stemcell for usage with KUBO. Use the same stemcell version as used by the bosh deployment.

   bosh -e kubo upload-stemcell "https://s3.amazonaws.com/bosh-core-stemcells/warden/bosh-stemcell-3468.21-warden-boshlite-ubuntu-trusty-go_agent.tgz"

8. Update the `cloud-config' for the kubo environment

   bosh -e kubo update-cloud-config kubo-bosh-lite/cloud-config.yml

9. Deploy Kubo

   This deployment of Kubo consists of only a single master/etcd node and three workers

   bosh -e kubo deploy -d kubo-bosh-lite kubo-bosh-lite/kubo.yml -v kubernetes_master_host=10.240.0.2

10. Add a route to allow access to the deployment of kubo

    sudo ip route add 10.240.0.0/16 via 192.168.50.6	# Linux
    sudo route add -net 10.240.0.0/16 192.168.50.6		# OS X

11. Set-up 'kubectl' to access the newly created cluster

    export CREDHUB_CLIENT=credhub-admin
    export CREDHUB_SECRET=$(bosh int --path /credhub_admin_client_secret kubo/creds.yml)
    export CREDHUB_CA_CERT=$(bosh int --path /credhub_tls/ca kubo/creds.yml)
    credhub login -s https://192.168.50.6:8844 --skip-tls-validation
    bosh int <(credhub get -n "/kubo-bosh-lite/kubo-bosh-lite/tls-kubernetes" --output-json) --path=/value/ca > kubo/kubernetes.crt
    kubectl config set-cluster kubo-bosh-lite --server https://10.240.0.2:8443 --embed-certs=true --certificate-authority=kubo/kubernetes.crt 
    KUBERNETES_PWD=$(bosh int <(credhub get -n "/kubo-bosh-lite/kubo-bosh-lite/kubo-admin-password" --output-json) --path=/value)
    kubectl config set-credentials "kubo-bosh-lite-admin" --token=${KUBERNETES_PWD}
    kubectl config set-context "kubo-bosh-lite" --cluster="kubo-bosh-lite" --user="kubo-bosh-lite-admin"
    kubectl config use-context "kubo-bosh-lite"
    kubectl get all

Troubleshooting

Use this command to connect to the internal BOSH machine

bosh int kubo/creds.yml --path /jumpbox_ssh/private_key > kubo/jumpbox.key
chmod 600 kubo/jumpbox.key
ssh [email protected] -i kubo/jumpbox.key
