This document describes the two methods of login to native nodes, namely, SSH key login and one-click login via OrcaTerm.
Method 1: SSH Key Login
For node pools
Assign an SSH key when creating a node pool
Modify the SSH key associated with an existing node pool
You can assign an SSH key to a node pool during the creation of the node pool. After a scale-out of the node pool, the SSH key is automatically assigned to the new nodes.
1. Log in to the TKE console and select Cluster in the left sidebar.
2. On the cluster list page, click the ID of the target cluster to go to the details page.
3. Select Node Management in the left sidebar, click Create and select Native Node on the Node Pool page.
4. On the Create node pool page, select SSH Key.
5. Click Create node pool.
Go to the details page of the node pool and modify the associated SSH key in the launch configuration section. The new SSH key takes effect only for new nodes in the node pool and does not affect the existing native nodes.
1. Log in to the TKE console and select Cluster in the left sidebar.
2. On the cluster list page, click the ID of the target cluster to go to the details page.
3. Select Node Management in the left menu bar, and click the Node Pool ID on the Node Pool page to enter the node pool details Page.
4. On the details page of the node pool, click
next to Associate SSH key in the launch configuration section.
5. On the Set node pool SSH key page, select an SSH key.
6. Click OK.
For nodes
Enable or modify SSH key login for a node
Enable or modify node login for multiple nodes at a time
If no SSH key is assigned to a node pool, you can enable and modify SSH key login for a single node in the node pool.
1. Log in to the TKE console and select Cluster in the left sidebar.
2. On the cluster list page, click the ID of the target cluster to go to the details page.
3. Select Node Management in the left menu bar, and click the Node Pool ID on the Node Pool page to enter the node pool details Page.
4. In the node list of the node pool page, select More > Key Management on the right side of the row for the node.
You can assign an SSH key to multiple nodes at a time.
1. Log in to the TKE console and select Cluster in the left sidebar.
2. On the cluster list page, click the ID of the target cluster to go to the details page.
3. Select Node Management in the left menu bar, click the Node Pool ID on the Node Pool page to enter the node pool details Page.
4. On the details page of the node pool, select multiple nodes as needed and choose More > Batch set SSH key.
Note:
1. Modifying the SSH key assigned to a node does not require the node to restart.
2. When you enable or modify node login for the first time or modify an SSH key that has been assigned to a node, the operation takes one to two minutes.
3. We recommend that the number of nodes for which you enable or modify SSH key login at a time do not exceed 20.
4. Batch enabling or modification of node login does not override the SSH keys that have been assigned to nodes.
Method 2: One-Click Login via OrcaTerm
1. Log in to the TKE console, and select Cluster in the left sidebar.
2. On the cluster list page, click the cluster ID to enter the cluster details page.
3. Select Node Management in the left menu bar, and click the Node Pool ID on the Node Pool page to enter the node pool details Page.
4. On the node pool details page, ensure that Tencent Cloud Automation Tools under Ops information is in the enabled status.
5. In the node list page of the node pool page, select More > Log in on the right side of the row for the node.
