How do I force Kubernetes CoreDNS to reload its Config Map after a change?












1















I'm running Kubernetes 1.11, and trying to configure the Kubernetes cluster to check a local name server first. I read the instructions on the Kubernetes site for customizing CoreDNS, and used the Dashboard to edit the system ConfigMap for CoreDNS. The resulting corefile value is:



.:53 {
errors
health
kubernetes cluster.local in-addr.arpa ip6.arpa {
pods insecure
upstream 192.168.1.3 209.18.47.61
fallthrough in-addr.arpa ip6.arpa
}
prometheus :9153
proxy . /etc/resolv.conf
cache 30
reload
}


You can see the local address as the first upstream name server. My problem is that this doesn't seem to have made any impact. I have a container running with ping & nslookup, and neither will resolve names from the local name server.



I've worked around the problem for the moment by specifying the name server configuration in a few pod specifications that need it, but I don't like the workaround.



How do I force CoreDNS to update based on the changed ConfigMap? I can see that it is a Deployment in kube-system namespace, but I haven't found any docs on how to get it to reload or otherwise respond to a changed configuration.

  • You can just delete coredns pod. then, it will be created automatically with new configuration.

You can edit it in command line:



kubectl edit cm coredns -n kube-system



Save it and exit, which should reload it.



If it will not reload, as Emruz Hossain advised delete coredns:



kubectl get pods -n kube-system -oname |grep coredns |xargs kubectl delete -n kube-system
