Prepare the base image

Use packer (system_os/hetzner) to upload image.

Create control plane

open config file terraform.tfvars and add params.

# regions to use
regions = ["nbg1", "fsn1", "hel1"]

# kubernetes control plane
controlplane = {
  "all" = {
    type_lb = ""
  },

  "nbg1" = {
    count = 1,
    type  = "cpx21",
  },
  "fsn1" = {
    count = 1,
    type  = "cax21",
  },
  "hel1" = {
    count = 1,
    type  = "cpx21",
  }
}

# Worker nodes by redion
instances = {
  "nbg1" = {
    web_count    = 0,
    web_type     = "cx11",
    worker_count = 1,
    worker_type  = "cpx11",
  },
  "fsn1" = {
    web_count    = 0,
    web_type     = "cx11",
    worker_count = 0,
    worker_type  = "cpx11",
  }
  "hel1" = {
    web_count    = 0,
    web_type     = "cx21",
    worker_count = 0,
    worker_type  = "cpx11",
  }
}
make create-lb

Install control plane

Generate the default talos config

make create-config create-templates

And deploy the kubernetes master nodes

make create-controlplane

Bootstrap the first node

make create-controlplane-bootstrap
make create-kubeconfig

Deploy all other instances

make create-infrastructure

Add barematal (robot) servers

Run server in Rescue mode.

Node Autoscaler

Cluster Autoscaler for Hetzner Cloud

Create/deploy autoscaler:

cat _cfgs/worker-as.yaml | base64 > _cfgs/worker-as.yaml.base64
kubectl -n kube-system create secret generic hcloud-init --from-file=worker=_cfgs/worker-as.yaml.base64 --from-literal=image="os=talos"

kubectl apply -f deployments/hcloud-autoscaler.yaml
