title: Federated ReplicaSets
---
This guide explains how to use replica sets in the Federation control plane.

## Prerequisites
This guide assumes that you have a running Kubernetes Cluster
Federation installation. If not, then head over to the
[federation admin guide](/docs/admin/federation/) to learn how to
bring up a cluster federation (or have your cluster administrator do
this for you). Other tutorials, for example
[this one](https://github.com/kelseyhightower/kubernetes-cluster-federation)
by Kelsey Hightower, are also available to help you.
You are also expected to have a basic
[working knowledge of Kubernetes](/docs/getting-started-guides/) in
general and [ReplicaSets](/docs/user-guide/replicasets/) in particular.
## Overview
Replica Sets in federation control plane (referred to as "federated replica sets" in
this guide) are very similar to the traditional [Kubernetes
ReplicaSets](/docs/user-guide/replicasets/), and provide the same functionality.
Creating them in the federation control plane ensures that the desired number of
replicas exist across the registered clusters.
## Creating a Federated Replica Set
The API for Federated Replica Set is 100% compatible with the
API for traditional Kubernetes Replica Set. You can create a replica set by sending
a request to the federation apiserver.
You can do that using [kubectl](/docs/user-guide/kubectl/) by running:
``` shell
kubectl --context=federation-cluster create -f myrs.yaml
```
The '--context=federation-cluster' flag tells kubectl to submit the
request to the Federation apiserver instead of sending it to a Kubernetes
cluster.
Once a federated replica set is created, the federation control plane will create
a replica set in all underlying Kubernetes clusters.
You can verify this by checking each of the underlying clusters, for example:
``` shell
kubectl --context=gce-asia-east1a get rs myrs
```
The above assumes that you have a context named 'gce-asia-east1a'
configured in your client for your cluster in that zone.
These replica sets in underlying clusters will match the federation replica set
except in the number of replicas. Federation control plane will ensure that the
sum of replicas in each cluster match the desired number of replicas in the
federation replica set.
### Spreading Replicas in Underlying Clusters
By default, replicas are spread equally in all the underlying clusters. For ex:
if you have 3 registered clusters and you create a federated replica set with
`spec.replicas = 9`, then each replica set in the 3 clusters will have
`spec.replicas=3`.
To modify the number of replicas in each cluster, you can specify
[FederatedReplicaSetPreference](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/blob/{{page.githubbranch}}/federation/apis/federation/types.go)
as an annotation with key `federation.kubernetes.io/replica-set-preferences`
on federated replica set.
## Updating a Federated Replica Set
You can update a federated replica set as you would update a Kubernetes
replica set; however, for a federated replica set, you must send the request to
the federation apiserver instead of sending it to a specific Kubernetes cluster.
The Federation control plan ensures that whenever the federated replica set is
updated, it updates the corresponding replica sets in all underlying clusters to
match it.
If your update includes a change in number of replicas, the federation
control plane will change the number of replicas in underlying clusters to
ensure that their sum remains equal to the number of desired replicas in
federated replica set.
## Deleting a Federated Replica Set
You can delete a federated replica set as you would delete a Kubernetes
replica set; however, for a federated replica set, you must send the request to
the federation apiserver instead of sending it to a specific Kubernetes cluster.
For example, you can do that using kubectl by running:
```shell
kubectl --context=federation-cluster delete rs myrs
```
Note that at this point, deleting a federated replica set will not delete the
corresponding replica sets from underlying clusters.
You must delete the underlying Replica Sets manually.
We intend to fix this in the future.
