Troubleshoot extension issues for Azure Arc-enabled Kubernetes clusters

This article describes troubleshooting tips for common problems related to cluster extensions like GitOps (Flux v2) in Azure or Open Service Mesh (OSM).

For help with troubleshooting Azure Arc-enabled Kubernetes problems in general, see Troubleshoot Azure Arc-enabled Kubernetes issues.

GitOps (Flux v2)

Note

You can use the Flux v2 extension in either an Azure Arc-enabled Kubernetes cluster or in an Azure Kubernetes Service (AKS) cluster. These troubleshooting tips generally apply to all cluster types.

For general help with troubleshooting problems when you use fluxConfigurations resources, run these Azure CLI commands with the --debug parameter:

az provider show -n Microsoft.KubernetesConfiguration --debug
az k8s-configuration flux create <parameters> --debug

Webhook dry run errors

Flux might fail and display an error similar to dry-run failed, error: admission webhook "<webhook>" does not support dry run. To resolve the problem, go to ValidatingWebhookConfiguration or MutatingWebhookConfiguration. In the configuration, set the value for sideEffects to None or NoneOnDryRun.

For more information, see How do I resolve "webhook does not support dry run" errors?.

Errors installing the microsoft.flux extension

The microsoft.flux extension installs Flux controllers and Azure GitOps agents in an Azure Arc-enabled Kubernetes cluster or Azure Kubernetes Service (AKS) cluster. If the extension isn't already installed in a cluster and you create a GitOps configuration resource for the cluster, the extension is installed automatically.

If you experience an error during installation or if the extension shows a Failed state, make sure that the cluster doesn't have any policies that restrict creating the flux-system namespace or any of the resources in that namespace.

For an AKS cluster, ensure that the Microsoft.ContainerService/AKS-ExtensionManager feature flag is enabled in the Azure subscription:

az feature register --namespace Microsoft.ContainerService --name AKS-ExtensionManager

Next, run the following command to determine if there are other problems.

In the command, for an Azure Arc-enabled cluster, set the cluster type parameter (-t) to connectedClusters. For an AKS cluster, set -t to managedClusters.

The name of the microsoft.flux extension is flux if the extension was installed automatically when you created your GitOps configuration.

az k8s-extension show -g <RESOURCE_GROUP> -c <CLUSTER_NAME> -n flux -t <connectedClusters or managedClusters>

The output can help you identify the problem and how to fix it. Possible remediation actions include:

  • Force-delete the extension by running az k8s-extension delete --force -g <RESOURCE_GROUP> -c <CLUSTER_NAME> -n flux -t <managedClusters OR connectedClusters>.
  • Uninstall the Helm release by running helm uninstall flux -n flux-system.
  • Delete the flux-system namespace from the cluster by running kubectl delete namespaces flux-system.

Then, you can either create a new Flux configuration, which installs the microsoft.flux extension automatically, or you can install the Flux extension manually.

Errors installing the microsoft.flux extension in a cluster that has a Microsoft Entra pod-managed identity

If you attempt to install the Flux extension in a cluster that has a Microsoft Entra pod-managed identity, an error might occur in the extension-agent pod. The output looks similar to this example:

{"Message":"2021/12/02 10:24:56 Error: in getting auth header : error {adal: Refresh request failed. Status Code = '404'. Response body: no azure identity found for request clientID <REDACTED>\n}","LogType":"ConfigAgentTrace","LogLevel":"Information","Environment":"prod","Role":"ClusterConfigAgent","Location":"westeurope","ArmId":"/subscriptions/<REDACTED>/resourceGroups/<REDACTED>/providers/Microsoft.Kubernetes/managedclusters/<REDACTED>","CorrelationId":"","AgentName":"FluxConfigAgent","AgentVersion":"0.4.2","AgentTimestamp":"2021/12/02 10:24:56"}

The extension status returns as Failed:

"{\"status\":\"Failed\",\"error\":{\"code\":\"ResourceOperationFailure\",\"message\":\"The resource operation completed with terminal provisioning state 'Failed'.\",\"details\":[{\"code\":\"ExtensionCreationFailed\",\"message\":\" error: Unable to get the status from the local CRD with the error : {Error : Retry for given duration didn't get any results with err {status not populated}}\"}]}}",

In this case, the extension-agent pod tries to get its token from Azure Instance Metadata Service on the cluster, but the token request is intercepted by the pod identity. To fix this problem, upgrade to the latest version of the microsoft.flux extension.

Issues with kubelet identity when you install the microsoft.flux extension in an AKS cluster

One of the authentication options in an AKS cluster is to use a kubelet identity as a user-assigned managed identity. By choosing to use a kubelet identity, you can help reduce operational overhead and increase security when users connect to Azure resources like Azure Container Registry.

To set Flux to use a kubelet identity, add the parameter --config useKubeletIdentity=true when you install the Flux extension:

az k8s-extension create --resource-group <resource-group> --cluster-name <cluster-name> --cluster-type managedClusters --name flux --extension-type microsoft.flux --config useKubeletIdentity=true

Have minimum required memory and CPU resources to install the microsoft.flux extension

The controllers that are installed in your Kubernetes cluster when you install the microsoft.flux extension require minimum CPU and memory resources to properly schedule on a Kubernetes cluster node. Be sure that your cluster meets the minimum memory and CPU resources requirements.

The following table lists the minimum and maximum limits for potential CPU and memory resource requirements in this scenario:

Container name Minimum CPU Minimum memory Maximum CPU Maximum memory
fluxconfig-agent 5 m 30 Mi 50 m 150 Mi
fluxconfig-controller 5 m 30 Mi 100 m 150 Mi
fluent-bit 5 m 30 Mi 20 m 150 Mi
helm-controller 100 m 64 Mi 1,000 m 1 Gi
source-controller 50 m 64 Mi 1,000 m 1 Gi
kustomize-controller 100 m 64 Mi 1,000 m 1 Gi
notification-controller 100 m 64 Mi 1,000 m 1 Gi
image-automation-controller 100 m 64 Mi 1,000 m 1 Gi
image-reflector-controller 100 m 64 Mi 1,000 m 1 Gi

If you enabled a custom or built-in Azure Policy Gatekeeper policy that limits the resources for containers on Kubernetes clusters, ensure that either the resource limits on the policy are greater than the limits shown in the preceding table or that the flux-system namespace is part of the excludedNamespaces parameter in the policy assignment. An example of a policy in this scenario is Kubernetes cluster containers CPU and memory resource limits should not exceed the specified limits.

Flux v1

Note

We recommend that you migrate to Flux v2 as soon as possible. Support for Flux v1-based cluster configuration resources that were created before January 1, 2024, ends on May 24, 2025. Starting on January 1, 2024, you won't be able to create new Flux v1-based cluster configuration resources.

To help troubleshoot problems with the sourceControlConfigurations resource in Flux v1, run these Azure CLI commands, including the --debug parameter:

az provider show -n Microsoft.KubernetesConfiguration --debug
az k8s-configuration flux create <parameters> --debug

Azure Monitor Container Insights

This section provides help with troubleshooting problems with Container insights in Azure Monitor for Azure Arc-enabled Kubernetes clusters.

Enable privileged mode for a Canonical Charmed Kubernetes cluster

Azure Monitor Container Insights requires its Kubernetes DaemonSet to run in privileged mode. To successfully set up a Canonical Charmed Kubernetes cluster for monitoring, run the following command:

juju config kubernetes-worker allow-privileged=true

Can't install AMA pods on Oracle Linux 9.x

If you try to install Azure Monitor Agent (AMA) on an Oracle Linux (Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL)) 9.x Kubernetes cluster, the AMA pods and the AMA-RS pod might not work correctly due to the addon-token-adapter container in the pod. When you check the logs of the ama-logs-rs pod, in addon-token-adapter container, you see output that's similar to the following example:

Command: kubectl -n kube-system logs ama-logs-rs-xxxxxxxxxx-xxxxx -c addon-token-adapter
 
Error displayed: error modifying iptable rules: error adding rules to custom chain: running [/sbin/iptables -t nat -N aad-metadata --wait]: exit status 3: modprobe: can't change directory to '/lib/modules': No such file or directory

iptables v1.8.9 (legacy): can't initialize iptables table `nat': Table does not exist (do you need to insmod?)

Perhaps iptables or your kernel needs to be upgraded.

This error occurs because installing the extension requires the iptable_nat module, but this module isn't automatically loaded in Oracle Linux (RHEL) 9.x distributions.

To fix this problem, you must explicitly load the iptables_nat module on each node in the cluster. Use the modprobe command sudo modprobe iptables_nat. After you have signed into each node and manually added the iptable_nat module, retry the AMA installation.

Note

Performing this step does not make the iptables_nat module persistent.

Azure Arc-enabled Open Service Mesh

This section demonstrates commands you can use to validate and troubleshoot the deployment of Open Service Mesh (OSM) extension components on your cluster.

Check the OSM controller deployment

kubectl get deployment -n arc-osm-system --selector app=osm-controller

If the OSM controller is healthy, you see output similar to:

NAME             READY   UP-TO-DATE   AVAILABLE   AGE
osm-controller   1/1     1            1           59m

Check OSM controller pods

kubectl get pods -n arc-osm-system --selector app=osm-controller

If the OSM controller is healthy, output that looks similar to the following example appears:

NAME                            READY   STATUS    RESTARTS   AGE
osm-controller-b5bd66db-wglzl   0/1     Evicted   0          61m
osm-controller-b5bd66db-wvl9w   1/1     Running   0          31m

Even though one controller has a status of Evicted at one point, another controller has the READY status 1/1 and Running with 0 restarts. If the READY status is anything other than 1/1, the service mesh is in a broken state. If READY is 0/1, the control plane container is crashing.

Use the following command to inspect controller logs:

kubectl logs -n arc-osm-system -l app=osm-controller

If the READY status is a number greater than 1 after the forward slash (/), sidecars are installed. The OSM controller generally doesn't work correctly when sidecars are attached.

Check the OSM controller service

To check the OSM controller service, run this command:

kubectl get service -n arc-osm-system osm-controller

If the OSM controller is healthy, output that looks similar to the following example appears:

NAME             TYPE        CLUSTER-IP    EXTERNAL-IP   PORT(S)              AGE
osm-controller   ClusterIP   10.0.31.254   <none>        15128/TCP,9092/TCP   67m

Note

The actual value for CLUSTER-IP will be different from this example. The values for NAME and PORT(S) should match what is shown in this example.

Check OSM controller endpoints

kubectl get endpoints -n arc-osm-system osm-controller

If the OSM controller is healthy, output that looks similar to the following example appears:

NAME             ENDPOINTS                              AGE
osm-controller   10.240.1.115:9092,10.240.1.115:15128   69m

If the cluster has no ENDPOINTS that have the value osm-controller, the control plane is unhealthy. This unhealthy state means that the controller pod crashed or that it was never deployed correctly.

Check the OSM injector deployment

kubectl get deployments -n arc-osm-system osm-injector

If the OSM injector is healthy, output that looks similar to the following example appears:

NAME           READY   UP-TO-DATE   AVAILABLE   AGE
osm-injector   1/1     1            1           73m

Check the OSM injector pod

kubectl get pod -n arc-osm-system --selector app=osm-injector

If the OSM injector is healthy, output that looks similar to the following example appears:

NAME                            READY   STATUS    RESTARTS   AGE
osm-injector-5986c57765-vlsdk   1/1     Running   0          73m

The READY status must be 1/1. Any other value indicates an unhealthy OSM injector pod.

Check the OSM injector service

kubectl get service -n arc-osm-system osm-injector

If the OSM injector is healthy, output that looks similar to the following example appears:

NAME           TYPE        CLUSTER-IP   EXTERNAL-IP   PORT(S)    AGE
osm-injector   ClusterIP   10.0.39.54   <none>        9090/TCP   75m

Ensure that the IP address that's listed for osm-injector service is 9090. There should be no value listed for EXTERNAL-IP.

Check OSM injector endpoints

kubectl get endpoints -n arc-osm-system osm-injector

If the OSM injector is healthy, output that looks similar to the following example appears:

NAME           ENDPOINTS           AGE
osm-injector   10.240.1.172:9090   75m

For OSM to function, there must be at least one endpoint for osm-injector. The IP address of your OSM injector endpoints varies, but the port value 9090 must be the same.

Check webhooks: Validating and Mutating

kubectl get ValidatingWebhookConfiguration --selector app=osm-controller

If the Validating webhook is healthy, output that looks similar to the following example appears:

NAME                     WEBHOOKS   AGE
osm-validator-mesh-osm   1          81m
kubectl get MutatingWebhookConfiguration --selector app=osm-injector

If the Mutating webhook is healthy, output that looks similar to the following example appears:

NAME                  WEBHOOKS   AGE
arc-osm-webhook-osm   1          102m

Check for the service and the Certificate Authority bundle (CA bundle) of the Validating webhook by using this command:

kubectl get ValidatingWebhookConfiguration osm-validator-mesh-osm -o json | jq '.webhooks[0].clientConfig.service'

A well-configured Validating webhook has output that looks similar to this example:

{
  "name": "osm-config-validator",
  "namespace": "arc-osm-system",
  "path": "/validate",
  "port": 9093
}

Check for the service and the CA bundle of the Mutating webhook by using the following command:

kubectl get MutatingWebhookConfiguration arc-osm-webhook-osm -o json | jq '.webhooks[0].clientConfig.service'

A well-configured Mutating webhook has output that looks similar to this example:

{
  "name": "osm-injector",
  "namespace": "arc-osm-system",
  "path": "/mutate-pod-creation",
  "port": 9090
}

Check whether the OSM controller has given the Validating (or Mutating) webhook a CA bundle by using the following command:

kubectl get ValidatingWebhookConfiguration osm-validator-mesh-osm -o json | jq -r '.webhooks[0].clientConfig.caBundle' | wc -c
kubectl get MutatingWebhookConfiguration arc-osm-webhook-osm -o json | jq -r '.webhooks[0].clientConfig.caBundle' | wc -c

Example output:

1845

The number in the output indicates the number of bytes, or the size of the CA bundle. If the output is empty, 0, or a number under 1,000, the CA bundle isn't correctly provisioned. Without a correct CA bundle, ValidatingWebhook throws an error.

Check the osm-mesh-config resource

Check for the existence of the resource:

kubectl get meshconfig osm-mesh-config -n arc-osm-system

Check the value of the OSM meshconfig setting:

kubectl get meshconfig osm-mesh-config -n arc-osm-system -o yaml

Look for output that looks similar to this example:

apiVersion: config.openservicemesh.io/v1alpha1
kind: MeshConfig
metadata:
  creationTimestamp: "0000-00-00A00:00:00A"

Check namespaces

Note

The arc-osm-system namespace never participates in a service mesh and is never labeled or annotated with the key/value pairs shown here.

You can use the osm namespace add command to join namespaces to a specific service mesh. When a Kubernetes namespace is part of the mesh, complete the following steps to confirm that requirements are met.

View the annotations of the bookbuyer namespace:

kubectl get namespace bookbuyer -o json | jq '.metadata.annotations'

The following annotation must be present:

{
  "openservicemesh.io/sidecar-injection": "enabled"
}

View the labels of the bookbuyer namespace:

kubectl get namespace bookbuyer -o json | jq '.metadata.labels'

The following label must be present:

{
  "openservicemesh.io/monitored-by": "osm"
}

If you aren't using the osm CLI, you can manually add these annotations to your namespaces. If a namespace isn't annotated with "openservicemesh.io/sidecar-injection": "enabled", or if it isn't labeled with "openservicemesh.io/monitored-by": "osm", the OSM injector doesn't add Envoy sidecars.

Note

After osm namespace add is called, only new pods are injected with an Envoy sidecar. Existing pods must be restarted by using the kubectl rollout restart deployment command.

Verify the SMI CRDs

For the OSM Service Mesh Interface (SMI), check whether the cluster has the required custom resource definitions (CRDs):

kubectl get crds

Ensure that the CRDs correspond to the versions that are available in the release branch. To confirm which CRD versions are in use, see SMI supported versions and select your version in the Releases menu.

Get the versions of the installed CRDs by using the following command:

for x in $(kubectl get crds --no-headers | awk '{print $1}' | grep 'smi-spec.io'); do
    kubectl get crd $x -o json | jq -r '(.metadata.name, "----" , .spec.versions[].name, "\n")'
done

If CRDs are missing, use the following commands to install them on the cluster. Replace the version in these commands as needed (for example, instead of v1.1.0, you might use release-v1.1).

kubectl apply -f https://raw.githubusercontent.com/openservicemesh/osm/release-v1.0/cmd/osm-bootstrap/crds/smi_http_route_group.yaml

kubectl apply -f https://raw.githubusercontent.com/openservicemesh/osm/release-v1.0/cmd/osm-bootstrap/crds/smi_tcp_route.yaml

kubectl apply -f https://raw.githubusercontent.com/openservicemesh/osm/release-v1.0/cmd/osm-bootstrap/crds/smi_traffic_access.yaml

kubectl apply -f https://raw.githubusercontent.com/openservicemesh/osm/release-v1.0/cmd/osm-bootstrap/crds/smi_traffic_split.yaml

To see how CRD versions change between releases, see the OSM release notes.

Troubleshoot certificate management

For information on how OSM issues and manages certificates to Envoy proxies running on application pods, see the OSM documentation.

Upgrade Envoy

When a new pod is created in a namespace that's monitored by the add-on, OSM injects an Envoy proxy sidecar in that pod. If the Envoy version needs to be updated, follow the steps in the Upgrade Guide in the OSM documentation.
