Migrated from Notion.

Agenda

  • Joe will grant Chris access to the netcup hosts.

NetKube status

  • Rollout
    • RBAC configuration and access granting
    • Most nodes are enrolled, Joe will re-check
    • turing, ritchie, lovelace and neumann will be Kubernetes nodes
    • hopper will be the storage server
  • Storage drivers
    • Not needed, everything that needs persistent storage will run on hopper
    • Netcup does not support storage resize
    • We can download more RAM if we need it
    • A couple of services still need volume mounts: Ghost, Grafana & Graphite
  • Control plane high availability
    • Joe mentions that in the case the control plane dies, everything else will die as well
    • If the control plane in Germany dies, so will Johannes

  • Early plans for migration

    • We can use the Ansible repository issues for a good schedule
    • Hopper runs nginx
    • Statement from Joe:

    "There is an nginx ingress running on every node in the cluster, okay, okay? We don't, the way that's, that's as a service is a NodePort, right? So it has a normal IP, but the port will be like a random port in the range of the 30,000s. Remember that? Hold on. Is he writing rude nodes? And then... We have nginx, so this is where it's like a little bit, like, not nice, I guess we just like, cronjob it, to pull the nodes, like, every minute or so, and then update the config if they change. But then it's just like... nginx is like a catalogue of nodes. Wahhh, you drive me crazy."

    • "Nah, it makes sense!"
      • "It does!"
    • Joe will figure this out with assistance from his voices.

Open authentication

  • Joe and Johannes will check out OpenLDAP as a JumpCloud alternative starting from this evening
  • Sofi has experience with OpenLDAP
