k8s HPA使用详解
kubectl scale 命令可以来实现 Pod 的扩缩容功能,但是这个毕竟是完全手动操作的,要应对线上的各种复杂情况,需要能够做到自动化去感知业务,来自动进行扩缩容,为此Kubernetes 也为我们提供了这样的一个资源对象:Horizontal Pod Autoscaling(Pod 水平自动伸缩),简称HPA,HPA 通过监控分析一些控制器控制的所有 Pod 的负载变化情况来确定是否需要调整 Pod 的副本数量,这是 HPA 最基本的原理:
我们可以简单的通过 kubectl autoscale 命令来创建一个 HPA 资源对象,HPA Controller默认30s轮询一次(可通过 kube-controller-manager 的--horizontal-pod-autoscaler-sync-period 参数进行设置),查询指定的资源中的 Pod 资源使用率,并且与创建时设定的值和指标做对比,从而实现自动伸缩的功能
Metrics Server
在 HPA 的第一个版本中,我们需要 Heapster 提供 CPU 和内存指标,在 HPA v2 过后就需要安装 Metrcis Server 了,Metrics Server 可以通过标准的 Kubernetes API 把监控数据暴露出来,有了 Metrics Server 之后,我们就完全可以通过标准的 Kubernetes API 来访问我们想要获取的监控数据了:
https://10.96.0.1/apis/metrics.k8s.io/v1beta1/namespaces/<namespace-name>/pods/<pod-name>
比如当我们访问上面的 API 的时候,我们就可以获取到该 Pod 的资源数据,这些数据其实是来自于 kubelet 的 Summary API 采集而来的,不过需要说明的是我们这里可以通过标准的 API 来获取资源监控数据,并不是因为 Metrics Server 就是 APIServer 的一部分,而是通过 Kubernetes 提供的 Aggregator 汇聚插件来实现的,是独立于 APIServer 之外运行的
聚合 API
Aggregator 允许开发人员编写一个自己的服务,把这个服务注册到 Kubernetes 的 APIServer 里面去,这样我们就可以像原生的 APIServer 提供的 API 使用自己的 API 了,我们把自己的服务运行在 Kubernetes 集群里面,然后 Kubernetes 的 Aggregator 通过 Service 名称就可以转发到我们自己写的 Service 里面去了。这样这个聚合层就带来了很多好处:
- 增加了 API 的扩展性,开发人员可以编写自己的 API 服务来暴露他们想要的 API
- 丰富了 API,核心 kubernetes 团队阻止了很多新的 API 提案,通过允许开发人员将他们的 API 作为单独的服务公开,这样就无须社区繁杂的审查了
开发分阶段实验性 API,新的 API 可以在单独的聚合服务中开发,当它稳定之后,在合并会 APIServer 就很容易了 - 确保新 API 遵循 Kubernetes 约定,如果没有这里提出的机制,社区成员可能会被迫推出自己的东西,这样很可能造成社区成员和社区约定不一致
安装
所以现在我们要使用 HPA,就需要在集群中安装 Metrics Server 服务,要安装 Metrics Server 就需要开启 Aggregator,因为 Metrics Server 就是通过该代理进行扩展的,不过我们集群是通过 Kubeadm 搭建的,默认已经开启了,如果是二进制方式安装的集群,需要单独配置 kube-apsierver 添加如下所示的参数:
--requestheader-client-ca-file=<path to aggregator CA cert>
--requestheader-allowed-names=aggregator
--requestheader-extra-headers-prefix=X-Remote-Extra-
--requestheader-group-headers=X-Remote-Group
--requestheader-username-headers=X-Remote-User
--proxy-client-cert-file=<path to aggregator proxy cert>
--proxy-client-key-file=<path to aggregator proxy key>
如果 kube-proxy 没有和 APIServer 运行在同一台主机上,那么需要确保启用了如下 kube-apsierver 的参数
--enable-aggregator-routing=true
对于这些证书的生成方式,我们可以查看官方文档:https://github.com/kubernetes-sigs/apiserver-builder-alpha/blob/master/docs/concepts/auth.md
安装 Metrics Server

[root@k8s-master ~]# kubectl top node
NAME CPU(cores) CPU% MEMORY(bytes) MEMORY%
k8s-master 180m 4% 6112Mi 79%
k8s-node1 307m 7% 6340Mi 54%
k8s-node2 314m 7% 5111Mi 43%
可以通过 kubectl top 命令来获取到资源数据了,证明 Metrics Server 已经安装成功了
基于CPU
用 Deployment 来创建一个 Nginx Pod,然后利用 HPA 来进行自动扩缩容,资源清单如下所示:(hpa-demo.yaml)
apiVersion: apps/v1
kind: Deployment
metadata:
name: hpa-demo
namespace: test-env
spec:
selector:
matchLabels:
app: nginx
template:
metadata:
labels:
app: nginx
spec:
containers:
- name: nginx
image: nginx
ports:

resources:
requests:

cpu: 50m
[root@k8s-master test]# kubectl apply -f hpa-demo.yaml
deployment.apps/hpa-demo created
[root@k8s-master test]# kubectl get -n test-env po
NAME READY STATUS RESTARTS AGE
hpa-demo-5c9d466b7f-mtqrl 1/1 Running 0 24s
现在我们来创建一个 HPA 资源对象,可以使用kubectl autoscale命令来创建:
[root@k8s-master test]# kubectl autoscale -n test-env deployment hpa-demo --cpu-percent=10 --min=1 --max=10
horizontalpodautoscaler.autoscaling/hpa-demo autoscaled
[root@k8s-master test]# kubectl get -n test-env hpa
NAME REFERENCE TARGETS MINPODS MAXPODS REPLICAS AGE
hpa-demo Deployment/hpa-demo <unknown>/10% 1 10 0 13s
此命令创建了一个关联资源 hpa-demo 的 HPA,最小的 Pod 副本数为1,最大为10。HPA 会根据设定的 cpu 使用率(10%)动态的增加或者减少 Pod 数量
当然我们依然还是可以通过创建 YAML 文件的形式来创建 HPA 资源对象,如果我们不知道怎么编写的话,可以查看上面命令行创建的HPA的YAML文件:
[root@k8s-master test]# kubectl get -n test-env hpa hpa-demo -o yaml
apiVersion: autoscaling/v1
kind: HorizontalPodAutoscaler
metadata:

currentReplicas: 1

然后我们可以根据上面的 YAML 文件就可以自己来创建一个基于 YAML 的 HPA 描述文件了,但是我们发现上面信息里面出现了一些 Fail 信息,我们来查看下这个 HPA 对象的信息:
[root@k8s-master test]# kubectl describe -n test-env hpa hpa-demo

hpa-demo Deployment/hpa-demo 0%/10% 1 10 1 4m40s
可以看到 HPA 资源对象已经正常了,现在我们来增大负载进行测试,我们来创建一个 busybox 的 Pod,并且循环访问上面创建的 Pod:
[root@k8s-master test]# kubectl get -n test-env pods -o wide -l app=nginx
NAME READY STATUS RESTARTS AGE IP NODE NOMINATED NODE READINESS GATES
hpa-demo-5c9d466b7f-mtqrl 1/1 Running 0 13m 10.244.1.88 k8s-node1 <none> <none>

/ # while true; do wget -q -O- http://10.244.1.88; done
可以看到,HPA 已经开始工作
[root@k8s-master ~]# kubectl get -n test-env hpa
NAME REFERENCE TARGETS MINPODS MAXPODS REPLICAS AGE
hpa-demo Deployment/hpa-demo 146%/10% 1 10 10 8m47s

hpa-demo-5c9d466b7f-vk8pb 1/1 Running 0 61s
可以看到已经自动拉起了很多新的 Pod,最后定格在了我们上面设置的 10 个 Pod,同时查看资源 hpa-demo 的副本数量,副本数量已经从原来的1变成了10个
[root@k8s-master ~]# kubectl get -n test-env deployment hpa-demo
NAME READY UP-TO-DATE AVAILABLE AGE
hpa-demo 10/10 10 10 11m
查看 HPA 资源的对象了解工作过程

同样的这个时候我们来关掉 busybox 来减少负载,然后等待一段时间观察下 HPA 和 Deployment 对象
[root@k8s-master test]# kubectl get hpa -n test-env
NAME REFERENCE TARGETS MINPODS MAXPODS REPLICAS AGE
hpa-demo Deployment/hpa-demo 0%/10% 1 10 1 19m
[root@k8s-master test]# kubectl get po -n test-env
NAME READY STATUS RESTARTS AGE
hpa-demo-5c9d466b7f-mtqrl 1/1 Running 0 20m
从 Kubernetes v1.12 版本开始我们可以通过设置 kube-controller-manager 组件的--horizontal-pod-autoscaler-downscale-stabilization 参数来设置一个持续时间,用于指定在当前操作完成后,HPA 必须等待多长时间才能执行另一次缩放操作,默认为5分钟,也就是默认需要等待5分钟后才会开始自动缩放
基于内存
HorizontalPodAutoscaler 是 Kubernetes autoscaling API 组的资源,在当前稳定版本 autoscaling/v1 中只支持基于 CPU 指标的缩放。在 Beta 版本 autoscaling/v2beta2,引入了基于内存和自定义指标的缩放。所以我们这里需要使用 Beta 版本的 API
现在用 Deployment 来创建一个 Nginx Pod,然后利用 HPA 来进行自动扩缩容。资源清单如下所示:(hpa-mem-demo.yaml)
apiVersion: apps/v1
kind: Deployment
metadata:
name: hpa-mem-demo
namespace: test-env
spec:
selector:
matchLabels:
app: nginx
template:
metadata:
labels:

spec:
volumes:
- name: increase-mem-script
configMap:

containers:

volumeMounts:
- name: increase-mem-script
mountPath: /etc/script
resources:
requests:
memory: 50Mi
cpu: 50m
securityContext:
privileged: true
这里和前面普通的应用有一些区别,我们将一个名为 increase-mem-config 的 ConfigMap 资源对象挂载到了容器中,该配置文件是用于后面增加容器内存占用的脚本,配置文件如下所示:(increase-mem-cm.yaml)
apiVersion: v1
kind: ConfigMap
metadata:
name: increase-mem-config
namespace: test-env
data:
increase-mem.sh: |
#!/bin/bash
mkdir /tmp/memory
mount -t tmpfs -o size=40M tmpfs /tmp/memory
dd if=/dev/zero of=/tmp/memory/block
sleep 60
rm /tmp/memory/block
umount /tmp/memory
rmdir /tmp/memory
由于这里增加内存的脚本需要使用到 mount 命令,这需要声明为特权模式,所以我们添加了 securityContext.privileged=true 这个配置。现在我们直接创建上面的资源对象即可
[root@k8s-master test]# kubectl apply -f increase-mem-cm.yaml
[root@k8s-master test]# kubectl apply -f hpa-mem-demo.yaml
[root@k8s-master test]# kubectl get -n test-env pods -l app=nginx
NAME READY STATUS RESTARTS AGE
hpa-mem-demo-66944b79bf-tqrn9 1/1 Running 0 35s
然后需要创建一个基于内存的 HPA 资源对象:(hpa-mem.yaml)
apiVersion: autoscaling/v2beta1
kind: HorizontalPodAutoscaler
metadata:
name: nginx-hpa
namespcae: test-env
spec:
scaleTargetRef:
apiVersion: apps/v1
kind: Deployment
name: hpa-mem-demo
minReplicas: 1
maxReplicas: 5
metrics:
- type: Resource
resource:
name: memory
targetAverageUtilization: 60
要注意这里使用的 apiVersion 是 autoscaling/v2beta1,然后 metrics 属性里面指定的是内存的配置,直接创建上面的资源对象即可
[root@k8s-master test]# kubectl apply -f hpa-mem.yaml
horizontalpodautoscaler.autoscaling/nginx-hpa created
[root@k8s-master test]# kubectl get -n test-env hpa
NAME REFERENCE TARGETS MINPODS MAXPODS REPLICAS AGE
hpa-demo Deployment/hpa-demo 0%/10% 1 10 1 43m
nginx-hpa Deployment/hpa-mem-demo 2%/60% 1 5 1 23s
到这里证明 HPA 资源对象已经部署成功了,接下来我们对应用进行压测,将内存压上去,直接执行上面我们挂载到容器中的 increase-mem.sh 脚本即可
[root@k8s-master test]# kubectl apply -f hpa-mem.yaml
horizontalpodautoscaler.autoscaling/nginx-hpa created
[root@k8s-master test]# kubectl get -n test-env hpa

[root@k8s-master test]# kubectl exec -it -n test-env hpa-mem-demo-6b9bd8f5ff-m7kgd bash
root@hpa-mem-demo-6b9bd8f5ff-m7kgd:/# ls /etc/script/

然后打开另外一个终端观察 HPA 资源对象的变化情况
[root@k8s-master test]# kubectl get -n test-env hpa

可以看到内存使用已经超过了我们设定的 60% 这个阈值了,HPA 资源对象也已经触发了自动扩容,变成了两个副本了
[root@k8s-master test]# kubectl get pods -l app=nginx

基于自定义指标
除了基于 CPU 和内存来进行自动扩缩容之外,我们还可以根据自定义的监控指标来进行,这个我们就需要使用 Prometheus Adapter,Prometheus 用于监控应用的负载和集群本身的各种指标,Prometheus Adapter 可以帮我们使用 Prometheus 收集的指标并使用它们来制定扩展策略,这些指标都是通过 APIServer 暴露的,而且 HPA 资源对象也可以很轻易的直接使用
