Create The VM(s)

Create the VM(s) where you are going to install the SDN-C cluster on Kubernetes with the following specifications:

VCPUs4
Disk20 GB
RAM16 GB


Enable Password

As ubuntu user is to be used for deploying and monitoring SDN-C cluster, we are enabling password in SSH for easier access to the VM using ubuntu user.


Do the following steps to enable password logging for a unbuntuubuntu user within the VM:

#PurposeExample
1Create a password for the ubuntu user

ubuntu@sdnc-k8s:~$ sudo passwd ubuntu

sudo: unable to resolve host sdnc-k8s

Enter new UNIX password:  <enter password>

Retype new UNIX password: <repeat entering the same password>

passwd: password updated successfully

20(Optional) Fix the "unable to resolve host" issue

ubuntu@sdnc-k8s:~$ sudo vi /etc/hosts

sudo: unable to resolve host sdnc-k8s

add the host name to the localhost in the following format:

<IP address> <hostname> localhost

3

1Create a password for the ubuntu user

ubuntu@sdnc-k8s:~$ sudo passwd ubuntu

Enter new UNIX password:  <enter password>

Retype new UNIX password: <repeat entering the same password>

passwd: password updated successfully

2Config ssh "PasswordAuthentication" to yes

ubuntu@sdnc-k8s:~$ sudo vi /etc/ssh/sshd_config

find PasswordAuthentication and set its value to yes, so that the line looks like

# Change to no to disable tunnelled clear text passwords
PasswordAuthentication yes

43Restart sshd to enable the new config

ubuntu@sdnc-k8s:~$ systemctl restart sshd passwd
