Install Kubernetes Offline: Step-by-Step
The installation and deployment of Kubernetes (k8s) in an offline environment can be done by following these steps:
- Download the necessary software packages.
- Download the binary files and Docker images for Kubernetes (kube-apiserver, kube-controller-manager, kube-scheduler, kubelet, kube-proxy, etc.).
- Download the etcd binary files (if necessary).
- Download the binary file for the container runtime (such as Docker).
- Prepare for installation:
- Copy the downloaded software package to the appropriate directory in the offline environment.
- Install necessary components such as Docker on all nodes.
- Set up a Kubernetes cluster.
- Deploy kube-apiserver, kube-controller-manager, kube-scheduler, and etcd (if required) on the Master node.
- Deploy kubelet and kube-proxy on the Node.
- Start the Kubernetes cluster.
- Start the kube-apiserver, kube-controller-manager, kube-scheduler, and etcd (if needed) on the Master node.
- Start kubelet and kube-proxy on the Node.
- Deploying the application.
- Deploy an application to a Kubernetes cluster using the kubectl command-line tool.
The above are the basic steps for installing and deploying Kubernetes in an offline environment, specific operations may need to be adjusted and configured accordingly based on actual conditions.
