Usage

This guide describes the necessary steps to deploy Wazuh on a local Kubernetes environment (Microk8s, Minikube, Kind).

Here we will describe the steps unique for a deployment on a local development scenario. For general knowledge read instructions.md as well which describes a deployment in more detail using an EKS cluster.

Pre-requisites

  • Kubernetes cluster already deployed.

Resource requirements

To deploy the local-env variant the Kubernetes cluster should have at least the following resources available:

  • 2 CPU units
  • 3 Gi of memory
  • 2 Gi of storage

Deployment

Clone this repository.

$ git clone https://github.com/wazuh/wazuh-kubernetes.git
$ cd wazuh-kubernetes

Setup SSL certificates

You can generate self-signed certificates for the ODFE cluster using the script at wazuh/certs/indexer_cluster/generate_certs.sh or provide your own.

Since Dashboard has HTTPS enabled it will require its own certificates, these may be generated with: openssl req -x509 -batch -nodes -days 365 -newkey rsa:2048 -keyout key.pem -out cert.pem, there is an utility script at wazuh/certs/dashboard_http/generate_certs.sh to help with this.

The required certificates are imported via secretGenerator on the kustomization.yml file:

secretGenerator:
- name: indexer-ssl-certs
    files:
    - certs/indexer_cluster/root-ca.pem
    - certs/indexer_cluster/root-ca-key.pem
    - certs/indexer_cluster/node.pem
    - certs/indexer_cluster/node-key.pem
    - certs/indexer_cluster/dashboard.pem
    - certs/indexer_cluster/dashboard-key.pem
    - certs/indexer_cluster/admin.pem
    - certs/indexer_cluster/admin-key.pem
    - certs/indexer_cluster/filebeat.pem
    - certs/indexer_cluster/filebeat-key.pem
- name: dashboard-certs
    files:
    - certs/dashboard_http/cert.pem
    - certs/dashboard_http/key.pem

Tune storage class with custom provisioner

Depending on the type of cluster you're running for local development the Storage Class may have a different provisioner.

You can check yours by running kubectl get sc. You will see something like this:

~> kubectl get sc
NAME                          PROVISIONER            RECLAIMPOLICY   VOLUMEBINDINGMODE   ALLOWVOLUMEEXPANSION   AGE
elk-gp2                       microk8s.io/hostpath   Delete          Immediate           false                  67d
microk8s-hostpath (default)   microk8s.io/hostpath   Delete          Immediate           false                  54d

The provisioner column displays microk8s.io/hostpath, you must edit the file envs/local-env/storage-class.yaml and setup this provisioner.

Apply all manifests using kustomize

We are using the overlay feature of kustomize two create two variants: eks and local-env, in this guide we're using local-env. (For a production deployment on EKS check the guide on instructions.md)

It is possible to adjust resources for the cluster by editing patches on envs/local-env/, the number of replicas for Elasticsearch nodes and Wazuh workers are reduced on the local-env variant to save resources. This could be undone by removing these patches from the kustomization.yaml or alter the patches themselves with different values.

By using the kustomization file on the local-env variant we can now deploy the whole cluster with a single command:

$ kubectl apply -k envs/local-env/

Accessing Dashboard

To access the Dashboard interface you can use port-forward:

$ kubectl -n wazuh port-forward service/dashboard 8443:443

Dashboard will be accesible on https://localhost:8443.
