How to install Kubernetes cluster behind proxy with Kubeadm?

Question

I met a couple of problems when installing the Kubernetes with Kubeadm. I am working behind the corporate network. I declared the proxy settings in the session environment.<

Answer 1

I would strongly suspect it is trying to pull down the docker images for gcr.io/google_containers/hyperkube:v1.7.3 or whatever, which requires teaching the docker daemon about the proxies, in this way using systemd

That would certainly explain why docker ps -a shows nothing, but I would expect the dockerd logs journalctl -u docker.service (or its equivalent in your system) to complain about its inability to pull from gcr.io

Based on what I read from the kubeadm reference guide, they are expecting you to patch the systemd config on the target machine to expose those environment variables, and not just set them within the shell that launched kubeadm (although that certainly could be a feature request)
