How to Start and Stop the PMK Stack Starting From v5.0/K8s v1.18

Problem

Starting with v5.0 and Kubernetes v1.18 the /etc/init.d/pf9-kube script is deprecated and can no longer be used to start and stop the PMK stack on the nodes.

Environment

  • Platform9 Managed Kubernetes - v5.0 and Higher
  • Kubernetes v1.18

Answer

There is a new component pf9-nodelet which controls the lifecycle of the Kubernetes stack. You can start and stop the stack by using the following command.

Copy

pf9-nodelet offers you more granularity for controlling the K8s stack compared to the old init.d script. You can see the other options available to you by running the command with a -h flag.
