I'm trying to bring up a RabbitMQ cluster on Kubernetes using Rabbitmq-peer-discovery-k8s plugin and I always have only on pod running and ready but the next one always fails.
I tried multiple changes to my configuration and this is what got at least one pod running

# publishNotReadyAddresses, when set to true, indicates that DNS implementations must publish the notReadyAddresses of subsets for the Endpoints associated with the Service. The default value is false. The primary use case for setting this field is to use a StatefulSet's Headless Service to propagate SRV records for its Pods without respect to their readiness for purpose of peer discovery. This field will replace the service.alpha.kubernetes.io/tolerate-unready-endpoints when that annotation is deprecated and all clients have been converted to use this field.
# Since access to the Pod using DNS requires Pod and Headless service to be started before launch, publishNotReadyAddresses is set to true to prevent readinessProbe from finding DNS when the service is not started.

What did I do wrong here?
One of the possible solution here, instead of attaching dns config to pod - use k8s proxy sidecar. So, instead of solving
kubernetes.default.svc.cluster.localYou could setup sidecar container like
- name: "k8s-api-sidecar"
image: "tommyvn/kubectl-proxy:latest"in statefullset/deployment And change configmap to use it
cluster_formation.peer_discovery_backend = rabbit_peer_discovery_k8s
cluster_formation.k8s.host = localhost
cluster_formation.k8s.port = 8001
cluster_formation.k8s.scheme = httpIf you take a look into this repository https://github.com/tommyvn/kubectl-proxy , you will find that it is just a call kubectl proxy.
Try using this stable helm chart https://github.com/helm/charts/tree/master/stable/rabbitmq
finally i fixed it by adding this in /etc/resolv.conf of my pods:
[my-rabbit-svc].[my-rabbitmq-namespace].svc.[cluster-name]to add this in my pod i used this setting in my StatefulSet:
dnsConfig:
searches:
- [my-rabbit-svc].[my-rabbitmq-namespace].svc.[cluster-name]
full documentation here
Try to set:
cluster_formation.k8s.host = [your kubernetes endpoint ip addres]
cluster_formation.k8s.port = [your kubernetes endpoint port]
because it seems that your pod cannot solve this name:
kubernetes.default.svc.cluster.local
