||
### Create a simple Pod to use as a test environment | ||
|
||
Create a file named busybox.yaml with the following contents: | ||
|
||
{% include code.html language="yaml" file="busybox.yaml" ghlink="/docs/tasks/administer-cluster/busybox.yaml" %} | ||
|
||
Then create a pod using this file and verify its status: | ||
|
||
```shell | ||
$ kubectl create -f busybox.yaml | ||
pod "busybox" created | ||
|
||
$ kubectl get pods busybox | ||
NAME READY STATUS RESTARTS AGE | ||
busybox 1/1 Running 0 <some-time> | ||
``` | ||
|
||
Once that pod is running, you can exec `nslookup` in that environment. | ||
If you see something like the following, DNS is working correctly. | ||
|
||
```shell | ||
$ kubectl exec -ti busybox -- nslookup kubernetes.default | ||
Server: 10.0.0.10 | ||
Address 1: 10.0.0.10 | ||
|
||
Name: kubernetes.default | ||
Address 1: 10.0.0.1 | ||
``` | ||
|
||
If the `nslookup` command fails, check the following: | ||
|
||
### Check the local DNS configuration first | ||
|
||
Take a look inside the resolv.conf file. | ||
(See [Inheriting DNS from the node](#inheriting-dns-from-the-node) and | ||
[Known issues](#known-issues) below for more information) | ||
|
||
```shell | ||
$ kubectl exec busybox cat /etc/resolv.conf | ||
``` | ||
|
||
Verify that the search path and name server are set up like the following | ||
(note that search path may vary for different cloud providers): | ||
|
||
``` | ||
search default.svc.cluster.local svc.cluster.local cluster.local google.internal c.gce_project_id.internal | ||
nameserver 10.0.0.10 | ||
options ndots:5 | ||
``` | ||
|
||
Errors such as the following indicate a problem with the kube-dns add-on or | ||
associated Services: | ||
|
||
``` | ||
$ kubectl exec -ti busybox -- nslookup kubernetes.default | ||
Server: 10.0.0.10 | ||
Address 1: 10.0.0.10 | ||
nslookup: can't resolve 'kubernetes.default' | ||
``` | ||
|
||
or | ||
|
||
``` | ||
$ kubectl exec -ti busybox -- nslookup kubernetes.default | ||
Server: 10.0.0.10 | ||
Address 1: 10.0.0.10 kube-dns.kube-system.svc.cluster.local | ||
nslookup: can't resolve 'kubernetes.default' | ||
``` | ||
|
||
### Check if the DNS pod is running | ||
|
||
Use the `kubectl get pods` command to verify that the DNS pod is running. | ||
|
||
```shell | ||
$ kubectl get pods --namespace=kube-system -l k8s-app=kube-dns | ||
NAME READY STATUS RESTARTS AGE | ||
... | ||
kube-dns-v19-ezo1y 3/3 Running 0 1h | ||
... | ||
``` | ||
|
||
If you see that no pod is running or that the pod has failed/completed, the DNS | ||
add-on may not be deployed by default in your current environment and you will | ||
have to deploy it manually. | ||
|
||
### Check for Errors in the DNS pod | ||
|
||
Use `kubectl logs` command to see logs for the DNS daemons. | ||
|
||
```shell | ||
$ kubectl logs --namespace=kube-system $(kubectl get pods --namespace=kube-system -l k8s-app=kube-dns -o name) -c kubedns | ||
$ kubectl logs --namespace=kube-system $(kubectl get pods --namespace=kube-system -l k8s-app=kube-dns -o name) -c dnsmasq | ||
$ kubectl logs --namespace=kube-system $(kubectl get pods --namespace=kube-system -l k8s-app=kube-dns -o name) -c sidecar | ||
``` | ||
|
||
See if there is any suspicious log. Letter '`W`', '`E`', '`F`' at the beginning | ||
represent Warning, Error and Failure. Please search for entries that have these | ||
as the logging level and use | ||
[kubernetes issues](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/issues) | ||
to report unexpected errors. | ||
|
||
### Is DNS service up? | ||
|
||
Verify that the DNS service is up by using the `kubectl get service` command. | ||
|
||
```shell | ||
$ kubectl get svc --namespace=kube-system | ||
NAME CLUSTER-IP EXTERNAL-IP PORT(S) AGE | ||
... | ||
kube-dns 10.0.0.10 <none> 53/UDP,53/TCP 1h | ||
... | ||
``` | ||
|
||
If you have created the service or in the case it should be created by default | ||
but it does not appear, see | ||
[debugging services](/docs/tasks/debug-application-cluster/debug-service/) for | ||
more information. | ||
|
||
### Are DNS endpoints exposed? | ||
|
||
You can verify that DNS endpoints are exposed by using the `kubectl get endpoints` | ||
command. | ||
|
||
```shell | ||
$ kubectl get ep kube-dns --namespace=kube-system | ||
NAME ENDPOINTS AGE | ||
kube-dns 10.180.3.17:53,10.180.3.17:53 1h | ||
``` | ||
|
||
If you do not see the endpoints, see endpoints section in the | ||
[debugging services](/docs/tasks/debug-application-cluster/debug-service/) documentation. | ||
|
||
For additional Kubernetes DNS examples, see the | ||
[cluster-dns examples](https://github.com/kubernetes/examples/tree/master/staging/cluster-dns) | ||
in the Kubernetes GitHub repository. | ||
|
||
## Known issues | ||
|
||
Kubernetes installs do not configure the nodes' resolv.conf files to use the | ||
cluster DNS by default, because that process is inherently distro-specific. | ||
This should probably be implemented eventually. | ||
|
||
Linux's libc is impossibly stuck ([see this bug from | ||
2005](https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=168253)) with limits of just | ||
3 DNS `nameserver` records and 6 DNS `search` records. Kubernetes needs to | ||
consume 1 `nameserver` record and 3 `search` records. This means that if a | ||
local installation already uses 3 `nameserver`s or uses more than 3 `search`es, | ||
some of those settings will be lost. As a partial workaround, the node can run | ||
`dnsmasq` which will provide more `nameserver` entries, but not more `search` | ||
entries. You can also use kubelet's `--resolv-conf` flag. | ||
|
||
If you are using Alpine version 3.3 or earlier as your base image, DNS may not | ||
work properly owing to a known issue with Alpine. | ||
Check [here](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/issues/30215) | ||
for more information. | ||
|
||
## Kubernetes Federation (Multiple Zone support) | ||
|
||
Release 1.3 introduced Cluster Federation support for multi-site Kubernetes | ||
installations. This required some minor (backward-compatible) changes to the | ||
way the Kubernetes cluster DNS server processes DNS queries, to facilitate | ||
the lookup of federated services (which span multiple Kubernetes clusters). | ||
See the [Cluster Federation Administrators' Guide](/docs/concepts/cluster-administration/federation/) | ||
for more details on Cluster Federation and multi-site support. | ||
