LAB#3.4: Deployment is not coming to Available

Thanks for your reply. I see some exceptions.
Regarding namespaces: Coredns status are "COntainer Creating", rest are fine. Here is the logs:
student@master-node:~$ kubectl get pods --all-namespaces

For the events log, I see the exceptions in form of warnings:

I think VPC of my VM's running on GC is fine as I have set no firewalls.

Please suggest .

Hello,
Are the various infrastructure pods running? Please run kubectl get pods --all-namespaces
If they are all running check to make sure all ports are open to all nodes in the VPC. If they are not running check the logs of each. Also please see if there are any errors in the output of kubectl get events
Regards,

I think VPC of my VM's running on GC is fine as I have set no firewalls. It is indeed due to the core dns namespace not coming up. PLease help me here, stuck on this issue from last two days.

Hello,
If you did not go out of your way to open all ports, then the default settings of the VPC may be the issue. I would also go back and ensure that when you ran kubeadm init, you passed the exact IP range as is found in the calico.yaml file. You can also use wireshark or tcpdump on both nodes to see what traffic is leaving one and being accepted by the other. Chances are calico/Felix/BIRD communication is not making it through even if other traffic is seen.
If you review the setup video it will guide you in ensuring all ports are open between nodes, which I think is the issue.

@serewicz, Thanks so much. You nailed it right. The reason was I provided wrong CIDR range for my Pod Network which is calico in my case. Re initializing the kubeadm did the trick.
Thanks Again!> @chrispokorni said:

Hi,
Sometimes just deleting the coredns pods forces new ones to be created, and at times that may fix the issue. If that does not, then per @serewicz 's suggestion a custom VPC (not the default one) with a custom all-open firewall rule would enable all traffic between your nodes. The default firewalls for the default VPC are typically blocking some traffic, even if that is not immediately obvious.

Thanks Chris for looking at it... I realize the reason to be not given the right cidr while applying the network configuration, in my case it was calico. Thanks for checking it... all default pods are up now!
