Custom Entrypoints

For some images, AWS containers use a custom entrypoint script. If you want to use your own entrypoint, you can override the entrypoint as follows.

Update the command parameter in your pod file. Replace the args parameters with your custom entrypoint script.

---
apiVersion: v1
kind: Pod
metadata:
  name: pytorch-multi-model-server-densenet
spec:
  restartPolicy: OnFailure
  containers:
  - name: pytorch-multi-model-server-densenet
    image: 763104351884.dkr.ecr.us-east-1.amazonaws.com/pytorch-inference:1.2.0-cpu-py36-ubuntu16.04
    command:
      - "/bin/sh"
      - "-c"
    args:
      - /usr/local/bin/multi-model-server
      - --start
      - --mms-config /home/model-server/config.properties
      - --models densenet="https://dlc-samples.s3.amazonaws.com/pytorch/multi-model-server/densenet/densenet.mar"

command is the Kubernetes field name for entrypoint. Refer to this table of Kubernetes field names for more information.

If the EKS cluster has expired IAM permissions to access the ECR repository holding the image, or you are using kubectl from a different user than the one that created the cluster, you will receive the following error.

error: unable to recognize "job.yaml": Unauthorized

To address this issue, you need to refresh the IAM tokens. Run the following script.

set -ex

AWS_ACCOUNT=${AWS_ACCOUNT}
AWS_REGION=us-east-1
DOCKER_REGISTRY_SERVER=https://${AWS_ACCOUNT}.dkr.ecr.${AWS_REGION}.amazonaws.com
DOCKER_USER=AWS
DOCKER_PASSWORD=`aws ecr get-login --region ${AWS_REGION} --registry-ids ${AWS_ACCOUNT} | cut -d' ' -f6`
kubectl delete secret aws-registry || true
kubectl create secret docker-registry aws-registry \
--docker-server=$DOCKER_REGISTRY_SERVER \
--docker-username=$DOCKER_USER \
--docker-password=$DOCKER_PASSWORD
kubectl patch serviceaccount default -p '{"imagePullSecrets":[{"name":"aws-registry"}]}'

Append the following under spec in your pod file.

imagePullSecrets:
    - name: aws-registry
