Part 2: Configuring  the Site 1 the Worker Node

Part 2: Configuring the Worker Node on Site 1

Section 1: Configuring the Worker Node on Site 1

To Configure Worker node, we need to SSH to both the Primary and Worker Nodes and run commands to pair them together

  1. Login securely via SSH with CCADMIN on Primary Node
    • On ControlCenter Desktop
      • Right Click on Start Menu open Command Prompt (Admin)
      • Inside the Command Prompt
        • Type ssh [email protected] and press enter
          • When prompted Are you sure you want to continue connecting (yes/no)? Type yes
            • Once logged in to a ssh session of primary node, switch to root account
              • Type sudo -i
                • In the password prompt, Type VMware1!VMware1! and press enter
  1. Inside the SSH session of the Primary node
    • Type /opt/vmware/sbin/primary-cluster-config.sh -as 192.168.110.14
      • with your keyboard press enter
      • When  prompted for Are you sure you want to continue connecting (yes/no)? Type yes
        • When prompted for the Worker node (192.168.110.14 ) password
          • Type VMware1!VMware1! and press enter
            • After the command is executed, at the end of the ssh session, it will display a new command which needs to be executed on Worker node
              • Copy the Command and Save it on a notepad or notepad++ on the Control Center Desktop

 

  1. Login securely via SSH with CCADMIN on Worker Node
    • On ControlCenter Desktop
      • Right Click on Start Menu open Command Prompt (Admin)

            • Once logged in to a ssh session of Worker node, switch to root account
              • Type sudo -i
                • In the password prompt, Type VMware1!VMware1! and press enter
  1. Inside the SSH session of the Worker node
    • Copy and paste the command from the Step 2 which was saved on notepad or notepad ++
    • For example
      • /opt/vmware/sbin/worker-cluster-config.sh -a 192.168.110.12 jwdtsm.3xqqgeinm5kgc2kd b23a9a1059f507cac41cfecf1f3f3b536f41d93e68c9632f3363871fa255f38c
        • Once done, the Worker Node configuration is complete for Site1
  1. Inside the SSH session of the Worker node
    • type sudo -i
      • with your keyboard
        • select Enter
    • type kubectl get pods -A
      • with your keyboard
        • select Enter
    • type kubectl get nodes
      • with your keyboard
        • select Enter
  1. Switch to your Primary Node (192.168.110.12) to verify  the configuration
    • Run the following Commands
      • Type kubectl get nodes
        • with your keyboard
          • select enter
      • Type kubectl get pods -A  
        • with your keyboard
          • select enter
