利用Helm部署高可用rancher集群

一、背景

Rancher HA有多種部署方式：

1. Helm HA安裝，將Rancher部署在已有的Kubernetes集群中，Rancher將使用集群的etcd存儲數據，并利用Kubernetes調度實現高可用性。
2. RKE HA安裝，使用RKE工具安裝獨立的Kubernetes集群，專門用于Rancher HA部署運行，RKE HA安裝僅支持Rancher v2.0.8以及之前的版本，Rancher v2.0.8之后的版本使用helm安裝Rancher。
   本方案將基于已有的Kubernetes集群，利用Helm安裝Rancher HA，并采用四層負載均衡方式。
   

   二、添加Chart倉庫地址

   使用helm repo add命令添加Rancher chart倉庫地址
   Rancher tag和Chart版本選擇參考：https://www.cnrancher.com/docs/rancher/v2.x/cn/installation/server-tags/

   #替換<CHART_REPO>為您要使用的Helm倉庫分支(即latest或stable）。
   helm repo add rancher-stable https://releases.rancher.com/server-charts/stable

   三、使用自簽名證書安裝Rancher server

   Rancher server設計默認需要開啟SSL/TLS配置來保證安全，將ssl證書以Kubernetes Secret卷的形式傳遞給rancher server或Ingress Controller。首先創建證書密文，以便Rancher和Ingress Controller可以使用。

   1、 生成自簽名證書

   #腳本
   一鍵生成自簽名證書腳本
   #執行腳本生成證書
   sh create_self-signed-cert.sh --ssl-domain=rancher.sumapay.com --ssl-trusted-ip=172.16.1.21,172.16.1.22 --ssl-size=2048 --ssl-date=3650

2、使用kubectl創建tls類型的secrets

#創建命名空間

[root@k8s-master03 ~]# kubectl create namespace cattle-system
namespace/rancher-system created

#服務證書和私鑰密文

[root@k8s-master03 self_CA]# kubectl -n cattle-system create secret tls tls-rancher-ingress --cert=./tls.crt --key=./tls.key 
secret/tls-rancher-ingress created

#ca證書密文

[root@k8s-master03 self_CA]# kubectl -n cattle-system create secret generic tls-ca --from-file=cacerts.pem 
secret/tls-ca created

3、安裝rancher server

#使用helm安裝rancher HA

[root@k8s-master03 ~]# helm install rancher-stable/rancher --name rancher2 --namespace cattle-system --set hostname=rancher.sumapay.com --set ingress.tls.source=secret --set privateCA=true

4、為Agent Pod添加主機別名(/etc/hosts)

如果你沒有內部DNS服務器而是通過添加/etc/hosts主機別名的方式指定的Rancher server域名，那么不管通過哪種方式(自定義、導入、Host驅動等)創建K8S集群，K8S集群運行起來之后，因為cattle-cluster-agent Pod和cattle-node-agent無法通過DNS記錄找到Rancher server,最終導致無法通信。

解決方法

可以通過給cattle-cluster-agent Pod和cattle-node-agent添加主機別名(/etc/hosts)，讓其可以正常通信(前提是IP地址可以互通)。

#cattle-cluster-agent pod
kubectl -n cattle-system \
patch deployments cattle-cluster-agent --patch '{
    "spec": {
        "template": {
            "spec": {
                "hostAliases": [
                    {
                        "hostnames":
                        [
                            "rancher.sumapay.com"
                        ],
                            "ip": "四層負載均衡地址"
                    }
                ]
            }
        }
    }
}'

#cattle-node-agent pod
kubectl -n cattle-system \
patch  daemonsets cattle-node-agent --patch '{
    "spec": {
        "template": {
            "spec": {
                "hostAliases": [
                    {
                        "hostnames":
                        [
                            "rancher.sumapay.com"
                        ],
                            "ip": "四層負載均衡地址"
                    }
                ]
            }
        }
    }
}'

至此，rancher HA已部署完畢，由于不是NodePort形式，在沒有部署ingress-controller情況下，我們還不能直接去訪問rancher服務。
ingress-controller部署請參考traefik部署與使用。
