Deploying Talos on Bare Metal

In this section we will show how you can set up Talos in bare-metal environments. Any tool using PXE booting can be used to deploy Talos. We have some documented Talos working with several provisioning tools here:

  • Arges is a new project by Talos Systems designed to provide Talos users with a robust and reliable way to build and manage bare metal Talos-based Kubernetes clusters. Arges uses Cluster-API for a consistent experience, and supports cloud platforms as well as bare metal.
  • Matchbox from Red Hat/CoreOS is a service that matches machines to profiles to PXE boot, and can be used to provision Talos clusters.

Generic Information

High level overview

Below is a image to visualize the process of bootstrapping nodes.

Kernel Parameters

The following is a list of kernel parameters you will need to set:

  • talos.config (required) the HTTP(S) URL at which the machine data can be found
  • talos.platform (required) should be 'metal' for bare-metal installs

Talos also enforces some minimum requirements from the KSPP (kernel self-protection project). The follow parameters are required:

  • page_poison=1
  • slab_nomerge
  • slub_debug=P
  • pti=on
