Kops: [AWS] Feature Request: Encrypted volume support in storage-aws.addons.k8s.io

Created on 8 Jan 2018  路  21Comments  路  Source: kubernetes/kops

I would like the ability to have the default EBS storage class provision encrypted volumes. I image configuring this through the cluster_spec:

spec:
  cloudConfig:
    awsStorageEnrypted: true

Resulting in storage-aws.addons.k8s.io/v1.7.0.yaml having the encrypted: true flag:

apiVersion: storage.k8s.io/v1
kind: StorageClass
metadata:
  name: default
  labels:
    k8s-addon: storage-aws.addons.k8s.io
provisioner: kubernetes.io/aws-ebs
parameters:
  type: gp2
  encrypted: true

---

apiVersion: storage.k8s.io/v1
kind: StorageClass
metadata:
  name: gp2
  annotations:
    storageclass.beta.kubernetes.io/is-default-class: "true"
  labels:
    k8s-addon: storage-aws.addons.k8s.io
provisioner: kubernetes.io/aws-ebs
parameters:
  type: gp2
  encrypted: true

Another workaround if you're wiling to encrypt all new EBS volumes in the region is to enable encryption by default with aws ec2 modify-ebs-default-kms-key-id. With this setting enabled, all newly provisioned EBS volumes will be encrypted by default, including volumes created through the k8s storage classes.

Regarding a workaround:

As far as I understand the code, kops will currently try to update the addon whenever the addon changes (via protokube and channels (RunApplyChannel, Addon.GetRequiredUpdates, ChannelVersion.replaces)).

This means if I change the existing storage class to be encrypted and kops updates the addon (e.g. during a Kubernetes upgrade), it will be replaced, right?

Is there a way to ensure this doesn't happen? I wouldn't like accidentally _not_ encrypting volumes after a cluster upgrade.

Can anyone tell me if there is a way to have the default storage class be encrypted without this patch?

From what I can tell the kops storage add on seems to re-configure the gp2 storage class to be marked as default even if I remove the storageclass.beta.kubernetes.io/is-default-class:"true" annotation and set another storage class as default, resulting in 2 default storage classes.

@carpenterm I removed both storage classes set up by kops and recreated them with encrypted: true and things seem to be well, even across major cluster upgrades. I didn't check the code, so no promises things aren't going to break.
