WORK IN PROGRESS - YOU MAY HAVE ISSUES WITH THIS PACKAGE, NOT FOR PRODUCTION

UDS Core RKE2 Example Bundle

This is a sample application using a Defense Unicorns UDS Bundle to package up the UDS Core Zarf Package into a bundle capable of running on RKE2.

This assumes that you have a RKE2 cluster up and running and that you have configured your kubectl to point to that cluster. Additionally, a default storage class should be available. RKE2 does not provide one by default, so you may need to install one. Rancher's Local Path Provisioner is suitable for testing on single-node clusters, and can be installed on your RKE2 cluster with:

# Install the Local Path Provisioner
kubectl apply -f https://raw.githubusercontent.com/rancher/local-path-provisioner/master/deploy/local-path-storage.yaml

# Set LPP as the default storage class:
kubectl patch storageclass local-path -p '{"metadata": {"annotations":{"storageclass.kubernetes.io/is-default-class":"true"}}}'

Installation

Terminate RKE2 Metrics Server

UDS Core provides it's own metrics server, and the Helm installation of the UDS Core metrics server conflicts with the namespace of the RKE2 deployment. Terminate the RKE2 metrics server and remove the helmchart object or, if you're starting a new cluster, use this snippet in /etc/rancher/rke2/config.yaml:

# /etc/rancher/rke2/config.yaml
disable:
  - rke2-metrics-server

Modify Bundle Configuration

You'll probably want to set your own domain name for the cluster. This can be done by modifying the bundles/uds-config.yaml file. You will likely want to override the MetalLB address range as well. These are the addresses that MetalLB will use to expose services on your local network.

TLS Keypair Generation

If you have your own TLS keypair to use for the cluster, copy the keypair to the top-level folder of this repo and name the files tls.cert and tls.key. Otherwise, you can create a self-signed set yourself with:

uds run certs

Note that they will be set up to use the domain name uds-core.lan by default.

Authenticate with ghcr.io

Recommended:

gh auth token | docker login ghcr.io --username <username> --password-stdin

Or create a personal access token and use that:

docker login ghcr.io --username <username> --password <token>

Bundle Creation

uds run create-bundle

Bundle Deployment

Deploy Zarf:

uds zarf init

Deploy this UDS Bundle:

uds deploy bundles/uds-bundle-uds-core-rke2-bundle-amd64-0.21.1.tar.zst

Naming conventions

UDS Bundles contain Zarf Packages which contain Zarf Components. Zarf components in turn can contain images, Helm charts, and manifests. This repo tries to be explicit with the naming of each of these resources. So for example, the Zarf package for Pepr Exemptions is called exemptions-package, and it contains a Zarf component called exemptions-component. This is to make it easy to understand the organization of each of these resources.

Issues

Depending on the version of Kubernetes being used, the UDS Core bundle may deploy Istio proxy inside some of the Job pods. Because it's a sidecar, it never exits and the Job will not complete. You may have to manually enter the pod in debug mode and tell the istio-proxy container to exit.

$ kubectl debug -it -n <namespace> <pod-name> --image=busybox

Then inside the pod:

$ wget -q --post-data='' -S -O /dev/null http://127.0.0.1:15020/quitquitquit
$ exit
