Follow these instructions to prepare an OpenShift cluster for Istio.
By default, OpenShift doesn't allow containers running with user ID 1337.
You must enable containers running with UID 1337 for Istio's service accounts
by running the command below. Make sure to replace istio-system
if you are
deploying Istio in another namespace:
{{< text bash >}} $ oc adm policy add-scc-to-group anyuid system:serviceaccounts:istio-system {{< /text >}}
Install Istio using the OpenShift profile:
{{< text bash >}} $ istioctl install --set profile=openshift {{< /text >}}
After installation is complete, expose an OpenShift route for the ingress gateway.
{{< text bash >}} $ oc -n istio-system expose svc/istio-ingressgateway --port=http2 {{< /text >}}
Security context constraints for application sidecars
The Istio sidecar injected into each application pod runs with user ID 1337, which is not allowed by default in OpenShift. To allow this user ID to be used, execute the following commands. Replace <target-namespace>
with the appropriate namespace.
{{< text bash >}} $ oc adm policy add-scc-to-group anyuid system:serviceaccounts: {{< /text >}}
When removing your application, remove the permissions as follows.
{{< text bash >}} $ oc adm policy remove-scc-from-group anyuid system:serviceaccounts: {{< /text >}}
Additional requirements for the application namespace
CNI on OpenShift is managed by Multus
, and it requires a NetworkAttachmentDefinition
to be present in the application namespace in order to invoke the istio-cni
plugin. Execute the following commands. Replace <target-namespace>
with the appropriate namespace.
{{< text bash >}} $ cat <<EOF | oc -n create -f - apiVersion: "k8s.cni.cncf.io/v1" kind: NetworkAttachmentDefinition metadata: name: istio-cni EOF {{< /text >}}
When removing your application, remove the NetworkAttachmentDefinition
as follows.
{{< text bash >}} $ oc -n delete network-attachment-definition istio-cni {{< /text >}}
