<p>I have configured kubernetes cluster using the steps as kubernetes the hard way by kelsey tower</p>

<p>Unfortunately i'm seeing inconsistent response when i hit the kubernetes service ip to check the version from worker nodes</p>

<p>here are my cluster details</p>

<p>I found the issue.Since it is high availability setup,there are 2 nodes(end points) api service and unfortunately the other node 192.168.56.102 - kube-apiserver is not able to connect etcd which running on that node and whenever the curl command hits kubernetes service ip which  resolves to 192.168.56.102,i'm getting no route to host since its not able to get the date from node 2 etcd db</p>

<p>I have removed the etcd second node etcd memeber(192.168.56.102:2380) from kube-apiserver command line arqs - </p>

<pre><code>--etcd-servers=http://192.168.56.101:2379,http://192.168.56.102:2380
</code></pre>

<p>Removed the second node from endpoints of kubernetes service</p>

<pre><code>root@kubem1:~# kubectl get ep
NAME         ENDPOINTS                                 AGE
kubernetes   192.168.56.101:6443,192.168.56.102:6443   22h

root@kubem1:~# kubectl edit ep kubernetes
endpoints/kubernetes edited

root@kubem1:~# kubectl get ep kubernetes
NAME         ENDPOINTS             AGE
kubernetes   192.168.56.101:6443   22h
</code></pre>

<p>Now i'm able to get curl output properly without route to host</p>
