KubeZero default configuration

We run agents on the controllers as well, so we force eg. ebs csi controllers and others to assume roles etc. This means we need to run kiam containers on the controllers using hostnetwork: true. Therefore we also change the default port from 443 to 6444 to not collide with the potential api-server port on the controllers. Make sure any firewall rules between controllers and workers are adjusted accordingly.

Kiam Certificates

The required certificates for Kiam server and agents are provided by a local cert-manager, which is configured to have a cluster local self-signing CA as part of the KubeZero platform.
Kiam TLS Config
KubeZero cert-manager

Metadata restrictions

Required for the csi ebs plugin and most likely various others assuming basic AWS information.

  • /latest/meta-data/instance-id
  • /latest/dynamic/instance-identity/document

Debugging

  • Verify iptables rules on hosts to be set by the kiam agent:
    iptables -L -t nat -n --line-numbers
    iptables -t nat -D PREROUTING <wrong rule>
