Emissary Ingress

Install/upgrade/uninstall Emissary Ingress

If you have not already done so, make sure your cluster meets the package prerequisites. Be sure to refer to the troubleshooting guide in the event of a problem.

Important

Starting at eksctl anywhere version v0.12.0, packages on workload clusters are remotely managed by the management cluster.
While following this guide to install packages on a workload cluster, please make sure the kubeconfig is pointing to the management cluster that was used to create the workload cluster. The only exception is the kubectl create namespace command below, which should be run with kubeconfig pointing to the workload cluster.
The emissary-apiext service has a known issue where its TLS certificate expires after one year and does not auto-renew. To resolve this, manually renew the certificate by running kubectl delete --all secrets --namespace=emissary-system followed by kubectl rollout restart deploy/emissary-apiext -n emissary-system prior to certificate expiry.
