I’ve been using it with Minikube. It’s a much nicer/faster experience than the dashboard addon.

Toying w/ it, but it doesn’t seem like it supports iam auth. Going to tinker w/ it on minikube.

I’ve got it working now with IAM Auth - what issues are you having?

I didn’t really try very hard. I just selected my cluster map and it failed so i gave up. lol. I was just tinkering anyway.

Ok…it works fine, @Chris Fowles. It helps if you use the right config AND your AWS profile actually has access.

Thanks for sharing @Erik Osterman (Cloud Posse),

The idea was to validate this today with a little working prototype if you have feature ideas let me know. Currently the main benefit to hub.helm.sh is that you are able to compare two chart versions. Other Features that I have planned are:

  • Notification on releases
  • Notification if a new helm chart is added with a keyword you are looking for.

Does any one know how to use kops on gov cloud? I can’t get the DNS right. Any help is appreciated

Erik Osterman (Cloud Posse) avatar
Erik Osterman (Cloud Posse)

I thought it wasn’t yet supported

Erik Osterman (Cloud Posse) avatar
Erik Osterman (Cloud Posse)


While there are DNS servers in the VPC, there is no Route53 service (API). This breaks many devops tools that make the assumption Route53 is / will be available (kops w/ kubernetes, for example). To be fair, some tools (like kops) provide an alternative to Route53 for bootstrapping the cluster, though our testing found the features to be buggy and not yet production quality. We worked around the need for Route53 by deploying our own self-healing and automated DNS solutions. A future post will dive into the details of our Route53 replacements.

roth.andy avatar

The article is old, though some of it still holds up. Route53 in particular is now available in GovCloud

*now. It is available now

Someone told me of a work around with freeipa with your experience do you think it is a good option?

roth.andy avatar

It works, one of my colleagues is doing it. They said it was janky though. My company is going to be doing a TON of work in the very near future with K8s in GovCloud so I’m looking for more information on the subject as well

I’ve been unable to find info how to switch a kops 1.13 cluster from single to multi-master; All the documentation I’ve found provides steps before the switch to etcd-manager. I’m having issues even connecting to etcd with etcdctl

Can anyone point me in the right direction?

Pablo Costa avatar

I think that for while it is better to stick with https://github.com/kube-aws/kube-spot-termination-notice-handler. It lacks the features of asg detach and notifications. ASG detach improves a lot the recovering time making the interruption almost seamless

If a termination notice is received for an instance that’s running on the cluster, the termination handler begins a multi-step cordon and drain process for the node.

it’s not spot specific

Asg rebalancing seems a use-case too. (If not disabled or having an asg per az)

Hi guys, Trying to parse kubernetes logs with fluent-bit helm chart form here: https://github.com/helm/charts/tree/master/stable/fluent-bit Stuck in configuring outputs. What I need is to have a few outputs sending logs to different indices into AWS ES based on kubeernetes namespace. If anyone happened to have worked with this helm or similar issue help is welcomed.

This is kind’a rad coming from the DoD.

“fast” in the DoD meaning less than 5 years?

Hello,

What are folks using as their helm chart repository ? I began by using an S3 bucket in our shared AWS account. But would like to hear if there’s something better out there in terms of user/developer experience

Also CodeFresh looks nice for setting up simple stuff since you can trigger off of pushes to docker registries (along with a bunch of other stuff)
