vault-init

The vault-init service automates the process of initializing and unsealing HashiCorp Vault instances running on Google Cloud Platform.

After vault-init initializes a Vault server it stores master keys and root tokens, encrypted using Google Cloud KMS, to a user defined Google Cloud Storage bucket.

Usage

The vault-init service is designed to be run alongside a Vault server and communicate over local host.

Kubernetes

Run vault-init in the same Pod as the Vault container. See the vault statefulset for a complete example.

Configuration

The vault-init service supports the following environment variables for configuration:

  • CHECK_INTERVAL - The time in seconds between Vault health checks. (300)
  • GCS_BUCKET_NAME - The Google Cloud Storage Bucket where the vault master key and root token is stored.
  • KMS_KEY_ID - The Google Cloud KMS key ID used to encrypt and decrypt the vault master key and root token.

Example Values

CHECK_INTERVAL="300"
GCS_BUCKET_NAME="vault-storage"
KMS_KEY_ID="projects/my-project/locations/global/keyRings/my-keyring/cryptoKeys/key"
