tctl experimental app-ingress

Run a Istio based Ingress Controller for your application

Synopsis

Install a dedicated Ingress Controller in your environment to allow incoming/ingress traffic to be routed to your application. This controller comprises of 3 components - Istiod, Istio Ingressgateway and a TSB OpenAPI Translator. You can configure the Ingress Controller by either specifying Istio config directly in the application namespace or by specifying the OpenAPI document for your application - the OpenAPI translator converts the specification into Istio compatible configuration and applies it on your behalf.

tctl experimental es-validate

(experimental) validates Elasticsearch setting in the current Kubernetes context

Synopsis

(experimental) the command is using the current Kubernetes context to query TSB ControlPlane CRD in "istio-system" namespace

To run the command - login to the Kubernetes cluster that has TSB Control Plane deployed tctl x es-validate

The command is using the users current Kubernetes context to query TSB Custom Resources and obtains:

  • Elasticsearch credentials that are stored in "elastic-credentials" secret
  • Elasticsearch CA certificate that is stored in "es-certs" secret
  • TSB Tokens "oap-token", "xcp-edge-central-auth-token" and "otel-token"
  • "telemetryStore" and "managementPlane" (only for ControlPlane) sections of TSB Custom Resources The command analyzes the received data and tries to make an educated call to the Elasticsearch
  • if Data from Elasticsearch is returned then the correct config is displayed for the user to apply

Additional checks that are performed:

  • Encoded credentials might have a carriage return - it can cause unpredictable behavior - the package informs the user on any found carriage returns in the Kubernetes secret.
  • CA certificate if presented by Elasticsearch gets placed in /tmp directory, and can be easily applied (only if trusted)
  • curl command with the complete list of parameters is displayed to help with additional testing
  • Tokens expiration date is validated and user is informed of any expired tokens
  • Checks can be done when TSB ControlPlane is pointing to standalone Elasticsearch or via MP FrontEnvoy

NOTE:if -m <management plane namespace> is used than checks can fail for within cluster services as the source of the call (shell with tctl) can be outside of the cluster network

tctl experimental es-validate [flags]

Examples

# Check Elasticsearch setting of TSB Control Plane located in 'istio-system' namespace

tctl experimental service-account token

Generate a new token that can be used to authenticate to TSB

Synopsis

Generate a new token that can be used to authenticate to TSB

This command generates a new token to authenticate to TSB as the service account. The command reads the private key from the specified file and uses it to sign the token. You can generate a new private key using the gen-key command.

tctl experimental sidecar-bootstrap

(experimental) Bootstrap Istio Sidecar for a workload that runs on VM or Baremetal (mesh expansion scenarios)

Synopsis

(experimental) Takes in one or more WorkloadEntry(s), generates identity(s) for them, and optionally copies generated files to the remote node(s) over SSH protocol and starts Istio Sidecar(s) there.

Alternatively, if SSH is not enabled on the remote node(s), generated files can be saved locally instead. In that case you will be able to transfer files to the remote node(s) using a mechanism that suits best your particular environment.

If you choose to copy generated files to the remote node(s) over SSH, you will be required to provide SSH credentials, i.e. either SSH Key or SSH Password. If you want to use an SSH Password or a passphrase-protected SSH Key, you must run this command on an interactive terminal to type the password in. We do not accept passwords through command line options to avoid leaking secrets into shell history.

File copying is performed over SCP protocol, and as such SCP binary must be installed on the remote node. If SCP is installed in a location other than /usr/bin/scp, you have to provide absolute path to the SCP binary by adding sidecar-bootstrap.istio.io/scp-path annotation to the respective WorkloadEntry resource.

To start Istio Sidecar on the remote node you must have Docker installed there. Istio Sidecar will be started on the host network as a docker container in capture mode.

While this command can work without any explicit configuration, it is also possible to fine tune its behavior by adding various annotations on a WorkloadEntry resource. E.g., consider the following real life example:

apiVersion: networking.istio.io/v1beta1
kind: WorkloadEntry
metadata:
annotations:
sidecar-bootstrap.istio.io/proxy-config-dir: /etc/istio-proxy # Directory on the remote node to copy generated files into
sidecar-bootstrap.istio.io/ssh-user: istio-proxy # User to SSH as; must have permissions to run Docker commands
# and to write copied files into the target directory
sidecar.istio.io/statsInclusionRegexps: ".*" # Configure Envoy proxy to export all available stats
proxy.istio.io/config: |
concurrency: 3 # ProxyConfig overrides to apply
name: my-vm
namespace: my-namespace
spec:
address: 1.2.3.4 # At runtime, Istio Sidecar will bind incoming listeners to that address.
# At bootstrap time, this command will SSH to that address
labels:
app: ratings
version: v1
class: vm # It's very handy to have extra labels on a WorkloadEntry
# to be able to narrow down label selectors to VM workloads only
network: on-premise # If your VM doesn't have L3 connectivity to k8s Pods,
# make sure to fill in network field
serviceAccount: ratings-sa

For a complete list of supported annotations run tctl x sidecar-bootstrap --docs.

tctl experimental verify gateway-deployments

Verify the gateway deployments found in the cluster.

(experimental) check gateway deployments for multi cluster missconfigurations.

Checks that the gateway deployments found in the kubernetes context are correct for multi cluster usage.

tctl experimental gateway-deployments "IngressGateway/gateways-a/no-match-local": no pods back service "no-match-local" and run in the nodes that match the "traffic.istio.io/nodeSelector" annotation on the service ('{"beta.kubernetes.io/os": "foobar"}')

For each gateway deployment, it shows its name (in the format <Gateway kind>/<namespace>/<name>) and the problems found for it. If no problems are found, no output is generated.

tctl experimental verify gateway-deployments [flags]

Examples

extracting annotation: service has NodePort type, but it is missing the "traffic.istio.io/nodeSelector" annotation
"IngressGateway/gateways-a/invalid-annotation":
extracting annotation: annotation "traffic.istio.io/nodeSelector" does not seem to be valid: 'foobar'
"IngressGateway/gateways-a/no-match-cluster":

tctl experimental wait

Wait until a resource reaches the desired status

tctl experimental wait <apiVersion/kind | kind | shortform> <name> [flags]

Examples

Wait command assumes the default desired status is READY for any resource.
Also, --status and --event optional parameters can be provided to specificy another status to wait for.
Keep in mind that the desired status could never be reached if something fails, it would reach
a failed status instead. In this case, the wait command would finish even though the resource didn't reach the desired status.

# Wait for a tenant using the apiVersion/Kind pattern
tctl experimental wait api.tsb.tetrate.io/v2/Tenant

# Wait for a workspace to be ready using the short form
tctl experimental wait ws my-workspace --status READY

# Wait for a workspace to be ready in no more than 1 minute
tctl experimental wait workspace my-workspace --status READY --timeout 1m

# Wait for a a gateway group to be accepted by XCP
tctl experimental wait --workspace my-workspace GatewayGroup my-group --status ACCEPTED --event XCP_ACCEPTED
