- Conclusion
We have a Kubernetes cluster and the CPEM addon up and running. Let's verify that the CPEM addon has been successfully deployed into the kubernetes cluster.
The steps below will guide you to verify the deplyment of the CPEM addon.
Steps
1. Identify the pod created for CPEM
Let's verify that the daemon named cloud-provider-equinix-metal is running on the cluster pod:
$ kubectl get daemonset --namespace kube-system cloud-provider-equinix-metal
NAME DESIRED CURRENT READY UP-TO-DATE AVAILABLE NODE SELECTOR AGE
cloud-provider-equinix-metal 1 1 1 1 1 <none> 25m
Next, we need to find which pod the daemon is running on in the cluster:
$ kubectl get pods --namespace kube-system -l app=cloud-provider-equinix-metal
NAME READY STATUS RESTARTS AGE
cloud-provider-equinix-metal-zkjqb 1/1 Running 0 30m
Step 13 of 16
2. Verify the Deployment
Now that we now which pod the addon is deployed in, let's check the logs of that pod:
$ kubectl logs --namespace kube-system cloud-provider-equinix-metal-zkjqb

Take a look at the logs and note I0603 18:33:02.519099 1 leaderelection.go:258] successfully acquired lease kube-system/cloud-controller-manager. This means that the cloud controller manager operator pod is working as expected and has acquired the lease to run as a controller manager in the cluster.
Step 14 of 16
3. Test the Add-on
We have verified that the CPEM addon has been successfully deployed into the kubernetes cluster. Let's test it!
We are going to check provider ID associated with the control plane node(s) deployed in the cluster. The provider ID is the unique ID of the instance that an external provider (i.e. cloud provider) can use to identify a specific node. This is a field that is used whenever kubernetes components need to identify one of our nodes to our API.
Let's find the control plane node name:
$ kubectl get nodes
NAME STATUS ROLES AGE VERSION
k8s-cluster1-pool1-cp-1 NotReady control-plane 3d1h v1.27.5
k8s-cluster1-pool1-worker-1 NotReady <none> 3d1h v1.27.5
Now let's find the provider ID associated with the k8s-cluster1-pool1-cp-1 node:
$ kubectl describe nodes k8s-cluster1-pool1-cp-1
Name: k8s-cluster1-pool1-cp-1

Note the attribute value associated with the ProviderID: key: equinixmetal://de9fbfec-c878-4627-be5b-4c368be25ac7. This value has been issued by CPEM, thus we can conclude that the CPEM addon is working as expected.
Step 15 of 16
Discussion
Let's take a few minutes to discuss what we did. Here are some questions to start the discussion.
- How is a cloud controller manager deployed in a Kubernetes cluster?
- How do we verify that the cloud controller manager has been deployed correctly?
