juju charmed-kubernetes - what are minimal hardware requirements?

1) Create KVM VM on a laptop and ssh into it

uvt-kvm create cdk-vm --cpu 6 --memory 10240 --disk 50
ssh [email protected]

2) On the VM:

sudo apt-get update; sudo apt-get upgrade -y; sudo apt-get autoclean; sudo apt-get autoremove -y;

3) Install LXD

sudo snap install lxd 

2019-07-17T16:09:50Z INFO Waiting for restart... lxd 3.14 from Canonical✓ installed

4) Install JUJU

sudo snap install juju --classic

juju 2.6.5 from Canonical✓ installed

5) Migrate LXD from deb packages + clean-up

sudo /snap/bin/lxd.migrate

=> Connecting to source server

=> Connecting to destination server

=> Running sanity checks

The source server is empty, no migration needed.

The migration is now complete and your containers should be back online.

Do you want to uninstall the old LXD (yes/no) [default=yes]?

All done. You may need to close your current shell and open a new one to have the "lxc" command work.

To migrate your existing client configuration, move ~/.config/lxc to ~/snap/lxd/current/.config/lxc

6) Init and set up LXD

/snap/bin/lxd init

Would you like to use LXD clustering? (yes/no) [default=no]:

Do you want to configure a new storage pool? (yes/no) [default=yes]:

Name of the new storage pool [default=default]:

Name of the storage backend to use (btrfs, ceph, dir, lvm, zfs) [default=zfs]: dir

Would you like to connect to a MAAS server? (yes/no) [default=no]:

Would you like to create a new local network bridge? (yes/no) [default=yes]:

What should the new bridge be called? [default=lxdbr0]:

What IPv4 address should be used? (CIDR subnet notation, “auto” or “none”) [default=auto]:

What IPv6 address should be used? (CIDR subnet notation, “auto” or “none”) [default=auto]: none

Would you like LXD to be available over the network? (yes/no) [default=no]:

Would you like stale cached images to be updated automatically? (yes/no) [default=yes]

Would you like a YAML "lxd init" preseed to be printed? (yes/no) [default=no]:

7) Bootsrap all together

juju bootstrap

Clouds

aws

aws-china

aws-gov

azure

azure-china

cloudsigma

google

joyent

localhost

oracle

oracle-classic

rackspace

Select a cloud [localhost]:

Enter a name for the Controller [localhost-localhost]:

Creating Juju controller "localhost-localhost" on localhost/localhost

Looking for packaged Juju agent version 2.6.5 for amd64

To configure your system to better support LXD containers, please see: https://github.com/lxc/lxd/blob/master/doc/production-setup.md Launching controller instance(s) on localhost/localhost... - juju-0c16b8-0 (arch=amd64)
Installing Juju agent on bootstrap instance Fetching Juju GUI 2.14.0 Waiting for address Attempting to connect to 10.42.215.113:22 Connected to 10.42.215.113 Running machine configuration script... Bootstrap agent now started Contacting Juju controller at 10.42.215.113 to verify accessibility... Bootstrap complete, controller "localhost-localhost" now is available Controller machines are in the "controller" model Initial model "default" added

8) Add model - to keep things clean

juju add-model cdk-114

Added 'cdk-114' model on localhost/localhost with credential 'localhost' for user 'admin'

9) edit profile for LXC

lxc profile edit juju-cdk-114

and replace it with:

config:
  boot.autostart: "true"
  linux.kernel_modules: ip_tables,ip6_tables,netlink_diag,nf_nat,overlay
  raw.lxc: |
    lxc.apparmor.profile=unconfined
    lxc.mount.auto=proc:rw sys:rw cgroup:rw
    lxc.cgroup.devices.allow=a
    lxc.cap.drop=
  security.nesting: "true"
  security.privileged: "true"
description: ""
devices:
  aadisable:
    path: /sys/module/nf_conntrack/parameters/hashsize
    source: /dev/null
    type: disk
  aadisable1:
    path: /sys/module/apparmor/parameters/enabled
    source: /dev/null
    type: disk
name: juju-cdk-114
used_by:[]

10) Deploy CDK 1.14

juju deploy charmed-kubernetes-124

and after (insert time here) depending on your resources allocated:

You do not need to run this in a VM. If you deploy JUJU on your laptop/desktop + LXD the way I showed here, when you are done with testing, just delete the model. This will remove all applications and LXC containers created.

juju destroy-model cdk-114

I hope this will help.
