This a second part of the deployment vSphere IaaS Control Plane with Avi Load Balancer and VDS. In this post, we will enable Workload Management, create vSphere namespace and a cluster. Also, I’m going to deploy 3 tier app inside the Kubernetes workload cluster.
vSphere IaaS Control Plane with VMware Avi Load Balancer and vSphere Distributed Switch (VDS) provides a robust architecture for managing and delivering containerized applications in a virtualized environment. This setup, enables unified environment where Kubernetes applications can run alongside with traditional virtual machines. Administrators can deploy K8S workload clusters directly on vSphere environment. For some time, this product was know as vSphere with Tanzu or Tanzu Kubernetes Grid Service, aka TKGs.
Between Cluster v1beta1 API and earlier APIs are lot of configuration changes. One of them, is introduced in TKG 2.0 a new resource pool called ClusterClass.
Some time ago, I received a message from users, that they can’t create new services on TKG clusters. The new services had an unusual “pending” status. We didn’t make any major changes to the infrastructure, no upgrades etc…situation like: it worked before, now it doesn’t work.
