Continental Innovates with Rancher and Kubernetes
By default, RKE will launch etcd servers, but RKE also supports being able to use an external etcd. RKE only supports connecting to a TLS enabled etcd setup.
Note: RKE will not accept having external etcd servers in conjunction with nodes with the etcd role.
etcd
services: etcd: path: /etcdcluster external_urls: - https://etcd-example.com:2379 ca_cert: |- -----BEGIN CERTIFICATE----- xxxxxxxxxx -----END CERTIFICATE----- cert: |- -----BEGIN CERTIFICATE----- xxxxxxxxxx -----END CERTIFICATE----- key: |- -----BEGIN PRIVATE KEY----- xxxxxxxxxx -----END PRIVATE KEY-----
The path defines the location of where the etcd cluster is on the endpoints.
path
The external_urls are the endpoints of where the etcd cluster is hosted. There can be multiple endpoints for the etcd cluster.
external_urls
The certificates and private keys used to authenticate and access the etcd service.
