Deploy Kube-OVN on Talos Linux

Talos Linux is a modern Linux distribution built for Kubernetes.

Note

Before deploying Kube-OVN, you MUST ensure that there is no CNI installed in the Talos cluster: 

cluster:
  network:
    cni:
      # "none" indicates that Talos will not manage any CNI installation.
      name: none

Deploy Kube-OVN via Helm Chart

You can deploy Kube-OVN on Talos Linux clusters with the following command:

helm install kube-ovn kubeovn/kube-ovn --wait \
    -n kube-system \
    --version v1.13.11 \
    --set OVN_DIR=/var/lib/ovn \
    --set OPENVSWITCH_DIR=/var/lib/openvswitch \
    --set DISABLE_MODULES_MANAGEMENT=true \
    --set cni_conf.MOUNT_LOCAL_BIN_DIR=false

If you want to use underlay as the default network, you need to pass the relevant chart values. Here is an example:

helm install kubeovn kubeovn/kube-ovn --wait \
    -n kube-system \
    --version v1.13.11 \
    --set OVN_DIR=/var/lib/ovn \
    --set OPENVSWITCH_DIR=/var/lib/openvswitch \
    --set DISABLE_MODULES_MANAGEMENT=true \
    --set cni_conf.MOUNT_LOCAL_BIN_DIR=false \
    --set networking.NETWORK_TYPE=vlan \
    --set networking.vlan.VLAN_INTERFACE_NAME=enp0s5f1 \
    --set networking.vlan.VLAN_ID=0 \
    --set networking.NET_STACK=ipv4 \
    --set-json networking.EXCLUDE_IPS='"172.99.99.11..172.99.99.99"' \
    --set-json ipv4.POD_CIDR='"172.99.99.0/24"' \
    --set-json ipv4.POD_GATEWAY='"172.99.99.1"'

Note

The network interface used by the default underlay network need to be ignored in the Talos machine configuration before deploying Kube-OVN. Here is an example: 

machine:
  network:
    interfaces:
      - interface: enp0s5f1
        ignore: true
