Kubernetes Cluster: Status of Node is NotReady – How to fix this

by | Jun 23, 2021

Stuck with the Kubernetes Cluster: Status of Node is NotReady error? We can help you.

Generally, with this error, we will have an unstable cluster.

As part of our Server Management Services, we assist our customers with several Kubernetes queries.

Today, let us see how we can fix this error quickly.

 

Kubernetes Cluster: Status of Node is NotReady

Recently, one of our customers came to us regarding this query. For him, the status of the node was returning as “NotReady”. In such a case, the cluster is unstable.

For example,

backend7-123:~ # kubectl get nodes

Kubernetes Cluster: Status of Node is NotReady

kubectl describe node 10.0.xx.xx

Conditions:
  Type             Status    LastHeartbeatTime                 LastTransitionTime                Reason                    Message
  ----             ------    -----------------                 ------------------                ------                    -------

  DiskPressure     Unknown   Tue, 29 Jan 2019 11:06:05 +0800   Tue, 29 Jan 2019 11:06:45 +0800   NodeStatusUnknown         Kubelet stopped posting node status.
  PIDPressure      False     Tue, 29 Jan 2019 11:06:05 +0800   Mon, 28 Jan 2019 15:11:01 +0800   KubeletHasSufficientPID   kubelet has sufficient PID available
  Ready            Unknown   Tue, 29 Jan 2019 11:06:05 +0800   Tue, 29 Jan 2019 11:06:45 +0800   NodeStatusUnknown         Kubelet stopped posting node status.

Here, we can see that the output displays, ‘Kubelet stopped posting node status’.

Then, we proceed to review the node104 node.

tail /var/log/messages

This will return us results showing, not found.

 

How to solve this?

Moving ahead, let us see how our Support Techs fix this error for our customers.

  • Restart each component in the node

systemctl daemon-reload
systemctl restart docker
systemctl restart kubelet
systemctl restart kube-proxy

Then we run the below command to view the operation of each component. In addition, we pay attention to see if it is the current time of the restart.

ps -ef |grep kube

Suppose the kubelet hasn’t started yet. This means the node is not checked in the master.

  • View firewall issues

systemctl status firewalld
----------carried out
systemctl stop firewalld
systemctl enable firewalld

We need to make sure the firewall is off

systemctl status firewalld

Finally, on the LB load balancing server, check the running log to monitor the running of k8s in real-time:

tail /var/log/nginx/k8s-access.log -f

Eventually, we can see the fix.
