Configure managed identity support in an existing Service Fabric cluster

To use Managed identities for Azure resources in your Service Fabric applications, first enable the Managed Identity Token Service on the cluster. This service is responsible for the authentication of Service Fabric applications using their managed identities, and for obtaining access tokens on their behalf. Once the service is enabled, you can see it in Service Fabric Explorer under the System section in the left pane, running under the name fabric:/System/ManagedIdentityTokenService.

Note

Service Fabric runtime version 6.5.658.9590 or higher is required to enable the Managed Identity Token Service.

You can find the Service Fabric version of a cluster from the Azure portal by opening the cluster resource and checking the Service Fabric version property in the Essentials section.

If the cluster is on Manual upgrade mode, you will need to first upgrade it to 6.5.658.9590 or later.

Enable Managed Identity Token Service in an existing cluster

To enable the Managed Identity Token Service in an existing cluster, you will need to initiate a cluster upgrade specifying two changes: (1) Enabling the Managed Identity Token Service, and (2) requesting a restart of each node. First, add the following snippet your cluster Azure Resource Manager template:

"fabricSettings": [
    {
        "name": "ManagedIdentityTokenService",
        "parameters": [
            {
                "name": "IsEnabled",
                "value": "true"
            }
        ]
    }
]

In order for the changes to take effect, you will also need to change the upgrade policy to specify a forceful restart of the Service Fabric runtime on each node as the upgrade progresses through the cluster. This restart ensures that the newly enabled system service is started and running on each node. In the snippet below, forceRestart is the essential setting to enable restart. For the remaining parameters, use values described below or use existing custom values already specified for the cluster resource. Custom settings for Fabric Upgrade Policy ('upgradeDescription') can be viewed from Azure portal by selecting 'Fabric Upgrades' option on the Service Fabric resource or resources.azure.com. Default options for the upgrade policy ('upgradeDescription') are not viewable from PowerShell or resources.azure.com. See ClusterUpgradePolicy for additional information.

"upgradeDescription": {
    "forceRestart": true,
    "healthCheckRetryTimeout": "00:45:00",
    "healthCheckStableDuration": "00:05:00",
    "healthCheckWaitDuration": "00:05:00",
    "upgradeDomainTimeout": "02:00:00",
    "upgradeReplicaSetCheckTimeout": "1.00:00:00",
    "upgradeTimeout": "12:00:00"
}

Note

Upon the successful completion of the upgrade, do not forget to roll back the forceRestart setting, to minimize the impact of subsequent upgrades.

Errors and troubleshooting

If the deployment fails with the following message, it means the cluster is not running on a high enough Service Fabric version:

{
    "code": "ParameterNotAllowed",
    "message": "Section 'ManagedIdentityTokenService' and Parameter 'IsEnabled' is not allowed."
}
