Changing the hostname of a MetalK8s nodeΒΆ

  1. On the node, change the hostname:

    $ hostnamectl set-hostname <New hostname>
    $ systemctl restart systemd-hostnamed
    
  2. Check that the change is taken into account.

    $ hostnamectl status
    
    Static hostname: <New hostname>
    Pretty hostname: <New hostname>
      Icon name: computer-vm
       Chassis: vm
    Machine ID: 5003025f93c1a84914ea5ae66519c100
       Boot ID: f28d5c64f06c48a3a775e24c4f03d00c
       Virtualization: kvm
    Oerating System: CentOS Linux 7 (Core)
       CPE OS Name: cpe:/o:centos:centos:7
           Kernel: Linux 3.10.0-957.12.2.el7.x86_64
       Architecture: x86-64
    
  3. On the bootstrap node, check the hostname edition incurred a change of status on the bootstrap. The edited node must be in a NotReady status.

    $ kubectl get <node_name>
    <node_name>    NotReady   etcd,master                   19h       v1.11.7
    
  4. Change the name of the node in the yaml file used to create it. Refer to Creating a Manifest for more information.

    apiVersion: v1
    kind: Node
    metadata:
      name: <New_node_name>
      annotations:
        metalk8s.scality.com/ssh-key-path: /etc/metalk8s/pki/salt-bootstrap
        metalk8s.scality.com/ssh-host: <node control-plane IP>
        metalk8s.scality.com/ssh-sudo: 'false'
      labels:
        metalk8s.scality.com/version: '127.0.0'
        <role labels>
    spec:
      taints: <taints>

    Then apply the configuration:

    $ kubectl apply -f <path to edited manifest>
    
  5. Delete the old node (here <node_name>):

    $ kubectl delete node <node_name>
    
  6. Open a terminal into the Salt Master container:

    $ kubectl -it exec salt-master-<bootstrap_node_name> -n kube-system -c salt-master bash
    
  7. Delete the now obsolete Salt Minion key for the changed Node:

    $ salt-key -d <node_name>
    
  8. Re-run the deployment for the edited Node:

    $ salt-run state.orchestrate metalk8s.orchestrate.deploy_node   saltenv=metalk8s-127.0.0   pillar='{"orchestrate": {"node_name": "<new-node-name>"}}'
