EKS AWS load balancer controller migration(v1->v2)

By Bys on December 19, 2022

AWS Load Balancer Controller Migration

  • EKS v1.21에서 진행하였으며 @As-Is AWS Load Balancer Controller는 v1.1.9, @To-Be AWS Load Balancer Controller v2.4.4로 진행한다.
  • 해당 내용은 개인적인 환경에서 테스트 한 것으로 반드시 각 환경에서 재 테스트가 필요하다.
  • 테스트 확인 결과 v1.1.6 -> v2.4.5도 동일한 방법으로 가능하다.

1. 알아두면 좋을 것들

  • AWS load balancer controller는 resource생성 시 ‘elbv2.k8s.aws/cluster: ${clusterName}’ Tagging한다.
  • 아래는 aws load balancer controller v2의 IAM Policy 중 일부다. ‘elbv2.k8s.aws/cluster’키 값의 유/무를 통해 통해 자신이 생성한 Resource에 대해서만 권한을 가지도록 설정하는 부분들이 존재한다. 따라서, 기존 리소스에 수작업으로 <elbv2.k8s.aws/cluster: cluster-name> 태그를 추가하는 과정이 필요하다. 
      {
      "Effect": "Allow",
      "Action": [
          "elasticloadbalancing:ModifyLoadBalancerAttributes",
          "elasticloadbalancing:SetIpAddressType",
          "elasticloadbalancing:SetSecurityGroups",
          "elasticloadbalancing:SetSubnets",
          "elasticloadbalancing:DeleteLoadBalancer",
          "elasticloadbalancing:ModifyTargetGroup",
          "elasticloadbalancing:ModifyTargetGroupAttributes",
          "elasticloadbalancing:DeleteTargetGroup"
      ],
      "Resource": "*",
      "Condition": {
          "Null": {
              "aws:ResourceTag/elbv2.k8s.aws/cluster": "false"
          }
      }
  }
  • Controller를 변경하는 중 기존 서비스중인 ALB는 자체로 영향을 받지 않는다. 다만 migration중 ALB를 제어하지 못하는 시간이 생긴다.
  • (중요) Controller를 변경하고 나서 v2에서 지원하는 annotation ‘alb.ingress.kubernetes.io/group.name’을 추가하면 신규 ALB가 생성되게 되며 이에 따라 DNS주소가 변경된다.
  • (중요) kubernetes.io/ingress.class: “alb” 제거 및 spec에 ‘ingressClassName: alb’를 추가한다.

2. aws load balancer controller v1 설치

Setup

3. aws load balancer controller v1을 통한 리소스 생성

apiVersion: apps/v1 # for versions before 1.9.0 use apps/v1beta2
kind: Deployment
metadata:
  name: nginx
  namespace: test
spec:

        app: nginx
    spec:
      containers:

        image: nginx
        ports:
        - containerPort: 80

apiVersion: v1

    protocol: TCP
    targetPort: 80

apiVersion: networking.k8s.io/v1

            name: nginx
            port:
              number: 80

4. aws load balancer controller v1.1.9 삭제 및 v2.4.4 생성

생성을 한 후 v2.4.4의 로그를 보면 아래와 같이 기존 Ingress 리소스에 권한이 없어 작업을 하지 못하는 것을 확인할 수 있다. 이는 IAM Policy에 Null Condition이 들어가 있기 때문이다.

$ kubectl logs -f -l app.kubernetes.io/instance=aws-load-balancer-controller -n kube-system

{"level":"error","ts":1671438093.1735396,"logger":"controller.ingress","msg":"Reconciler error","name":"nginx","namespace":"test","error":"AccessDenied: User: arn:aws:sts::111122223333:assumed-role/AmazonEKSLoadBalancerControllerRole/1671437923207273240 is not authorized to perform: elasticloadbalancing:AddTags on resource: arn:aws:elasticloadbalancing:ap-northeast-2:111122223333:targetgroup/b01868f7-5a04f165222a86523e6/ae1c4856facad74d because no identity-based policy allows the elasticloadbalancing:AddTags action\n\tstatus code: 403, request id: 0536d0c4-5c18-4ffa-9135-3ab811602897"}

5. aws load balancer controller v1.1.9 Controller를 통해 생성된 Resource에 ‘elbv2.k8s.aws/cluster’ 태그를 추가한다.

aws load balancer controller v1.1.9 Controller를 통해 생성된 Resource인 ALB/TargetGroup/Security Group에 수작업으로 elbv2.k8s.aws/cluster: cluster-name 태그를 추가한다.

생성을 한 후 v2.4.4의 로그를 보면 태깅이 추가 됨과 동시에 자동으로 기존 targetgroup을 연결하는 targetgroupbinding 리소스를 생성하는 것을 확인할 수 있다.

$ kubectl logs -f -l app.kubernetes.io/instance=aws-load-balancer-controller -n kube-system

{"level":"info","ts":1671438585.975024,"logger":"controllers.ingress","msg":"added resource tags","arn":"arn:aws:elasticloadbalancing:ap-northeast-2:111122223333:listener/app/b01868f7-test-nginx-cf8a/d2d154e4d7ab5662/f8026de8309a10e2"}

{"level":"info","ts":1671438586.22507,"logger":"controllers.ingress","msg":"successfully deployed model","ingressGroup":"test/nginx"}

6. 기존 ALB Ingress manifest 수정시 정상동작 확인.

alb.ingress.kubernetes.io/success-codes, alb.ingress.kubernetes.io/tags 등의 어노테이션 값 수정 및 kubernetes.io/ingress.class: "alb"제거 spec: ingressClassName: alb 추가 후 정상 반영을 확인 해보면 아래와 같이 정상 로그를 볼 수 있다.

$ kubectl logs -f -l app.kubernetes.io/instance=aws-load-balancer-controller -n kube-system
