Fixed In Version: Doc Type: Bug Fix
Doc Text:
Cause: Multiple available networks on worker nodes make it difficult to pick an address on the control plane for CRI-O. Consequence: CRI-O often binds to a non control plane interface Fix: Make CRI-O systemd service depend on a service that chooses the right interface and configures the CRI-O service. Result: CRI-O binds to an address in the control plane.

Description Antoni Segura Puimedon 2020-02-27 16:23:45 UTC
+++ This bug was initially created as a clone of Bug #1807998 +++

Description of problem:
On Baremetal, and specially on IPv6 deploymnets, CRI-O's default setting of stream-address="" makes it bind to whichever address. That means that it can easily end up on the provisioning network.

How reproducible: Often


Steps to Reproduce:
1. Trigger a baremetal deployment
2. ssh to the different nodes
3. sudo ss -lptn | grep crio

Actual results:
Binds to provisioning network or some address not in the control plane.


Expected results:
Should be bound to a non VIP address on the control plane network (non-deprecated, non-link-local IPv6 address when IPv6 deployment).

Additional info:
You can check if crio got a stream address specified with a short command like in this example:

[core@master-0 ~]$ cat "/proc/$(pgrep crio)/cmdline" | xargs -0 echo
/usr/bin/crio --stream-address=fd2e:6f44:5dd8:c956::14 --enable-metrics=true --metrics-port=9537
