Smoke Test

In this lab you will complete a series of tasks to ensure your Kubernetes cluster is functioning correctly.

Data Encryption

In this section you will verify the ability to encrypt secret data at rest.

Create a generic secret:

kubectl create secret generic kubernetes-the-hard-way \
  --from-literal="mykey=mydata"

Print a hexdump of the kubernetes-the-hard-way secret stored in etcd:

gcloud compute ssh controller-0 \
  --command "sudo ETCDCTL_API=3 etcdctl get \
  --endpoints=https://127.0.0.1:2379 \
  --cacert=/etc/etcd/ca.pem \
  --cert=/etc/etcd/kubernetes.pem \
  --key=/etc/etcd/kubernetes-key.pem\
  /registry/secrets/default/kubernetes-the-hard-way | hexdump -C"

output

The etcd key should be prefixed with k8s:enc:aescbc:v1:key1, which indicates the aescbc provider was used to encrypt the data with the key1 encryption key.

Deployments

In this section you will verify the ability to create and manage Deployments.

Create a deployment for the nginx web server:

kubectl create deployment nginx --image=nginx

List the pod created by the nginx deployment:

kubectl get pods -l app=nginx

output

NAME                     READY   STATUS    RESTARTS   AGE
nginx-554b9c67f9-vt5rn   1/1     Running   0          10s

Port Forwarding

In this section you will verify the ability to access applications remotely using port forwarding.

Retrieve the full name of the nginx pod:

POD_NAME=$(kubectl get pods -l app=nginx -o jsonpath="{.items[0].metadata.name}")

Forward port 8080 on your local machine to port 80 of the nginx pod:

kubectl port-forward $POD_NAME 8080:80

output

Forwarding from 127.0.0.1:8080 -> 80
Forwarding from [::1]:8080 -> 80

In a new terminal make an HTTP request using the forwarding address:

curl --head http://127.0.0.1:8080

output

HTTP/1.1 200 OK
Server: nginx/1.17.3
Date: Sat, 14 Sep 2019 21:10:11 GMT
Content-Type: text/html
Content-Length: 612
Last-Modified: Tue, 13 Aug 2019 08:50:00 GMT
Connection: keep-alive
ETag: "5d5279b8-264"
Accept-Ranges: bytes

Switch back to the previous terminal and stop the port forwarding to the nginx pod:

Forwarding from 127.0.0.1:8080 -> 80
Forwarding from [::1]:8080 -> 80
Handling connection for 8080
^C

Logs

In this section you will verify the ability to retrieve container logs.

Print the nginx pod logs:

kubectl logs $POD_NAME

output

127.0.0.1 - - [14/Sep/2019:21:10:11 +0000] "HEAD / HTTP/1.1" 200 0 "-" "curl/7.52.1" "-"

Exec

In this section you will verify the ability to execute commands in a container.

Print the nginx version by executing the nginx -v command in the nginx container:

kubectl exec -ti $POD_NAME -- nginx -v

output

nginx version: nginx/1.17.3

Services

In this section you will verify the ability to expose applications using a Service.

Expose the nginx deployment using a NodePort service:

kubectl expose deployment nginx --port 80 --type NodePort

The LoadBalancer service type can not be used because your cluster is not configured with cloud provider integration. Setting up cloud provider integration is out of scope for this tutorial.

Retrieve the node port assigned to the nginx service:

NODE_PORT=$(kubectl get svc nginx \
  --output=jsonpath='{range .spec.ports[0]}{.nodePort}')

Create a firewall rule that allows remote access to the nginx node port:

gcloud compute firewall-rules create kubernetes-the-hard-way-allow-nginx-service \
  --allow=tcp:${NODE_PORT} \
  --network kubernetes-the-hard-way

Retrieve the external IP address of a worker instance:

EXTERNAL_IP=$(gcloud compute instances describe worker-0 \
  --format 'value(networkInterfaces[0].accessConfigs[0].natIP)')

Make an HTTP request using the external IP address and the nginx node port:

curl -I http://${EXTERNAL_IP}:${NODE_PORT}

output

HTTP/1.1 200 OK
Server: nginx/1.17.3
