查看证书过期时间
查看控制平面组件证书过期时间
说明
该命令显示 /etc/kubernetes/pki 文件夹中的客户端证书以及 kubeadm（admin.conf、controller-manager.conf 和 scheduler.conf） 使用的 kubeconfig 文件中嵌入的客户端证书的到期时间/剩余时间
可以看到证书在2025年1月2日过期，现在是2025年6月29日
注意
输出的列表中没有包含 kubelet.conf 配置文件，因为 kubeadm 将 kubelet 配置为自动更新证书。 轮换的证书位于目录 /var/lib/kubelet/pki。 要修复过期的 kubelet 客户端证书，请参阅 kubelet 客户端证书轮换失败
$ kubeadm certs check-expiration

说明
也可以使用如下命令查看
openssl x509 -in /var/lib/kubelet/pki/kubelet-client-current.pem -noout -subject -dates
$ openssl x509 -in /var/lib/kubelet/pki/kubelet-client-current.pem -noout -text | grep 'Not After'
Not After : Jan 2 02:18:40 2025 GMT
手动更新证书
必须先更新kubelet的证书，否则后续重启控制平面组件会失败，因为kubeadm安装的k8s控制平面组件都是静态pod
更新kubelet证书
master节点和node节点都 要进行操作
删除文件
::tip 说明
删除之前先备份一下
:::
rm -rf /etc/kubernetes/kubelet.conf
rm -rf /var/lib/kubelet/pki/kubelet-client*
重新生成 kubelet.conf 文件
注意
此步骤在集群中具有 /etc/kubernetes/pki/ca.key 的、正常工作的控制平面节点上执行
需要注意 $NODE 为机器主机名
kubeadm kubeconfig user --org system:nodes --client-name system:node:$hostname > kubelet.conf
拷贝 kubelet.conf
cp kubelet.conf /etc/kubernetes/kubelet.conf
重启 kubelet
说明
重启kubelet会重建证书，格式为当前日期，可用 date "+%Y-%m-%d-%H-%M-%S" 命令生成此格式
$ ll /var/lib/kubelet/pki/
-rw------- 1 root root 2818 Jun 29 13:55 kubelet-client-2025-06-29-13-55-27.pem
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 59 Jun 29 13:55 kubelet-client-current.pem -> /var/lib/kubelet/pki/kubelet-client-2025-06-29-13-55-27.pem
systemctl restart kubelet
重启完成后kubelet就会变为 running 状态了
更新控制平面组件证书
更新所有证书
$ kubeadm certs renew all
[renew] Reading configuration from the cluster...
[renew] FYI: You can look at this config file with 'kubectl -n kube-system get cm kubeadm-config -o yaml'
[renew] Error reading configuration from the Cluster. Falling back to default configuration
certificate embedded in the kubeconfig file for the admin to use and for kubeadm itself renewed
certificate for serving the Kubernetes API renewed
certificate the apiserver uses to access etcd renewed
certificate for the API server to connect to kubelet renewed
certificate embedded in the kubeconfig file for the controller manager to use renewed
certificate for liveness probes to healthcheck etcd renewed
certificate for etcd nodes to communicate with each other renewed
certificate for serving etcd renewed
certificate for the front proxy client renewed
certificate embedded in the kubeconfig file for the scheduler manager to use renewed
Done renewing certificates. You must restart the kube-apiserver, kube-controller-manager, kube-scheduler and etcd, so that they can use the new certificates.
拷贝kubeconfig
cp -i /etc/kubernetes/admin.conf $HOME/.kube/config
chown $(id -u):$(id -g) $HOME/.kube/config
手动批准csr
说明
csr是kubelet 客户端证书签名请求，可以看到是有一些是 Pending 状态的
$ kubectl get csr

csr-2dvns 2m38s kubernetes.io/kube-apiserver-client-kubelet system:node:k8s-master01 <none> Pending

kubectl get csr | grep Pending | awk '{print $1}' | xargs kubectl certificate approve
重启控制平面 Pod
移动文件
说明
kubeadm安装的k8s，控制平面的组件都是静态pod，文件存放于 /etc/kubernetes/manifests 下，因此移除这些文件即可完成重启
注意
如果误删除了 /etc/kubernetes/manifests 的文件，则可以使用命令 kubeadm init phase control-plane all 进行恢复
ll
total 16
-rw------- 1 root root 2411 Jan 3 2024 etcd.yaml
-rw------- 1 root root 3375 Jan 3 2024 kube-apiserver.yaml
-rw------- 1 root root 2901 Jan 3 2024 kube-controller-manager.yaml
-rw------- 1 root root 1487 Jan 3 2024 kube-scheduler.yaml
将文件 移动后，相应的静态pod就会删除，等待20s，把文件移动回来，pod就会自动创建了，这样就完成了组件的重启
mv /etc/kubernetes/manifests/* /tmp
