I have tried to make a redis cluster in k8s environment using "NodePort" type of service.
More specifically, I want to compose a redis cluster across two different k8s cluster.

When I used LoadBalancer(External IP) for service type, cluster was made successfully.
The problem is NodePort.

After I command redis-cli –cluster create, it stucks on "Waiting for the cluster to join"

Below is the logs of cluster create command.
I deployed 4 leader pods and 4 slave pods with individual nodeport service.

Can I set the above configuration? (type 'yes' to accept): yes
>>> Nodes configuration updated
>>> Assign a different config epoch to each node
>>> Sending CLUSTER MEET messages to join the cluster
Waiting for the cluster to join
...........................................

The weird point is that the other redis containers received the signal but there is no progress.
Below is the logs of other redis containers.

.... // Some logs for initializing redis
1:M 20 Jan 2022 06:09:12.055 * Ready to accept connections
1:M 20 Jan 2022 06:13:41.263 # configEpoch set to 5 via CLUSTER SET-CONFIG-EPOCH

I thought the communication was successful but gossip port didn’t work properly.
So, I modified redis.conf and set cluster-announce-bus-port but it also didn’t work.

How can I compose a redis cluster using nodeport type of service?

Please refer the one of .yaml files

      if [ -z "${HOST_IP}" ]; then
        echo "Unable to determine Pod IP address!"
        exit 1
      fi
      echo "Updating my IP to ${HOST_IP} in ${CLUSTER_CONFIG}"
      sed -i.bak -e "/myself/ s/[0-9]{1,3}.[0-9]{1,3}.[0-9]{1,3}.[0-9]{1,3}/${HOST_IP}/" ${CLUSTER_CONFIG}

    There was someone else who had already found the problem. This link is the issue he made. https://github.com/redis/redis/issues/6432
    The cause of problem is that CLUSTER MEET is not use cluster-announce-bus-port. Actually, there is even no variable for storing cluster-announce-bus-port in clusterManagerNode struct.

    There is already PR for this problem. https://github.com/redis/redis/pull/6442

    It's not merged or closed yet so this is the ongoing problem...


  2. i am not sure actual process you are following to create the cluster of Redis however i would suggest checking out the helm chart to deploy the Redis cluster on K8s.

    Using helm chart it’s easy to manage and deploy the Redis cluster on K8s.

    https://github.com/bitnami/charts/tree/master/bitnami/redis

    To deploy chart you just have to run command :

    helm install my-release bitnami/redis
    

    On Node Port side once helm chart is deployed you can edit the service type of else you can also update the first helm chart and after that apply those changes to K8s.

    This will create the Node port on K8s for Redis service.

    You can find service template here : https://github.com/bitnami/charts/tree/master/bitnami/redis/templates
