###Background
When deploying Kubernetes using something like [Fleet](https://github.com/coreos/fleet), the API Server (and other services) may not stay on the same host (depending on your setup)
In these cases it's ideal to have a dynamic load balancer ([Hipache](https://github.com/hipache/hipache)) that can receive updates from your services.
###Setup
Our example is based on Kelsey Hightower's "[Kubernetes Fleet Tutorial](https://github.com/kelseyhightower/kubernetes-fleet-tutorial)" (The bash variable ${DEFAULT_IPV4} is set in Kelsey's /etc/network-environment file)
For this write-up we are going to assume you have a dedicated [etcd](https://github.com/coreos/etcd) endpoint (10.1.10.10 Private IPV4) and are running kubernetes on systems managed by systemd / fleet.
The Hipache instance is going to run on 172.20.1.20 (Public IPV4) but will have a Private IPV4 address as well (10.1.10.11)
First, create your kube-apiserver.service file (change necessary variables)
`~/hipache/kube-apiserver.service`
```
[Unit]
Description=Kubernetes API Server
Documentation=https://github.com/GoogleCloudPlatform/kubernetes
[Service]
EnvironmentFile=/etc/network-environment
ExecStartPre=/usr/bin/rm /opt/bin/kube-apiserver
ExecStartPre=/usr/bin/wget -P /opt/bin https://path/to/kube-apiserver/binary
ExecStartPre=/usr/bin/chmod +x /opt/bin/kube-apiserver
ExecStart=/opt/bin/kube-apiserver \
--address=0.0.0.0 \
--port=8080 \
--etcd_servers=http://10.1.10.10:4001
ExecStartPost=/usr/bin/etcdctl -C 10.1.10.10:4001 set /frontend:172.20.1.20 '[ "kubernetes", "http://${DEFAULT_IPV4}:8080" ]'
Restart=always
RestartSec=10
[X-Fleet]
MachineMetadata=role=kubernetes
```
Next we need a Hipache instance and a config file. In our case, we just rolled our own docker container for it.
`~/workspace/hipache/Dockerfile`
```
FROM ubuntu:14.04
RUN apt-get update && \
apt-get -y install nodejs npm && \
npm install node-etcd hipache -g
RUN mkdir /hipache
ADD . /hipache
RUN cd /hipache
ENV NODE_ENV production
EXPOSE 80
CMD hipache -c /hipache/config.json
```
`~/workspace/hipache/config.json`
```
{
"server": {
"accessLog": "/tmp/access.log",
"port": 80,
"workers": 10,
"maxSockets": 100,
"deadBackendTTL": 30,
"tcpTimeout": 30,
"retryOnError": 3,
"deadBackendOn500": true,
"httpKeepAlive": false
},
"driver": ["etcd://10.1.10.10:4001"]
}
```
We need to build the docker container and set up the systemd service for our Hipache container.
`docker build -t kube-hipache .`
`/etc/systemd/system/kube-hipache.service`
```
[Unit]
Description=Hipache Router
After=docker.service
Requires=docker.service
[Service]
TimeoutStartSec=0
ExecStartPre=-/usr/bin/docker kill hipache
ExecStartPre=-/usr/bin/docker rm hipache
ExecStart=/usr/bin/docker run -d -p 80:80 --name hipache hipache
[Install]
WantedBy=multi-user.target
```
Let's put some pieces together! Run the following commands:
- `systemctl enable /etc/systemd/system/kube-hipache.service `
- `systemctl start kube-hipache.service`
- `journalctl -b -u kube-hipache.service` (Make sure it's running)
- `fleetctl start ~/hipache/kube-apiserver.service`
That's it! Fleet will schedule the apiserver on one of your minions and once it's started it will register itself in etcd. Hipache will auto-update once this happens and you should never have to worry which node the apiserver is sitting on.
