Chapter 5. Installing a cluster on GCP with network customizations In OpenShift Container Platform version 4.14, you can install a cluster with a customized network configuration on infrastructure that the installation program provisions on Google Cloud Platform (GCP). By customizing your network configuration, your cluster can coexist with existing IP address allocations in your environment and integrate with existing MTU and VXLAN configurations. To customize the installation, you modify parameters in the install-config.yaml file before you install the cluster. You must set most of the network configuration parameters during installation, and you can modify only kubeProxy configuration parameters in a running cluster. 5.1. Prerequisites You reviewed details about the OpenShift Container Platform installation and update processes. You read the documentation on selecting a cluster installation method and preparing it for users . You configured a GCP project to host the cluster. If you use a firewall, you configured it to allow the sites that your cluster requires access to. 5.2. Internet access for OpenShift Container Platform In OpenShift Container Platform 4.14, you require access to the internet to install your cluster. You must have internet access to: Access OpenShift Cluster Manager to download the installation program and perform subscription management. If the cluster has internet access and you do not disable Telemetry, that service automatically entitles your cluster. Access Quay.io to obtain the packages that are required to install your cluster. Obtain the packages that are required to perform cluster updates. Important If your cluster cannot have direct internet access, you can perform a restricted network installation on some types of infrastructure that you provision. During that process, you download the required content and use it to populate a mirror registry with the installation packages. With some installation types, the environment that you install your cluster in will not require internet access. Before you update the cluster, you update the content of the mirror registry. 5.3. Generating a key pair for cluster node SSH access During an OpenShift Container Platform installation, you can provide an SSH public key to the installation program. The key is passed to the Red Hat Enterprise Linux CoreOS (RHCOS) nodes through their Ignition config files and is used to authenticate SSH access to the nodes. The key is added to the ~/.ssh/authorized_keys list for the core user on each node, which enables password-less authentication. After the key is passed to the nodes, you can use the key pair to SSH in to the RHCOS nodes as the user core . To access the nodes through SSH, the private key identity must be managed by SSH for your local user. If you want to SSH in to your cluster nodes to perform installation debugging or disaster recovery, you must provide the SSH public key during the installation process. The ./openshift-install gather command also requires the SSH public key to be in place on the cluster nodes. Important Do not skip this procedure in production environments, where disaster recovery and debugging is required. Note You must use a local key, not one that you configured with platform-specific approaches such as AWS key pairs . Procedure If you do not have an existing SSH key pair on your local machine to use for authentication onto your cluster nodes, create one. For example, on a computer that uses a Linux operating system, run the following command: USD ssh-keygen -t ed25519 -N '' -f <path>/<file_name> 1 1 Specify the path and file name, such as ~/.ssh/id_ed25519 , of the new SSH key. If you have an existing key pair, ensure your public key is in the your ~/.ssh directory. Note If you plan to install an OpenShift Container Platform cluster that uses the RHEL cryptographic libraries that have been submitted to NIST for FIPS 140-2/140-3 Validation on only the x86_64 , ppc64le , and s390x architectures, do not create a key that uses the ed25519 algorithm. Instead, create a key that uses the rsa or ecdsa algorithm. View the public SSH key: USD cat <path>/<file_name>.pub For example, run the following to view the ~/.ssh/id_ed25519.pub public key: USD cat ~/.ssh/id_ed25519.pub Add the SSH private key identity to the SSH agent for your local user, if it has not already been added. SSH agent management of the key is required for password-less SSH authentication onto your cluster nodes, or if you want to use the ./openshift-install gather command. Note On some distributions, default SSH private key identities such as ~/.ssh/id_rsa and ~/.ssh/id_dsa are managed automatically. If the ssh-agent process is not already running for your local user, start it as a background task: USD eval "USD(ssh-agent -s)" Example output Agent pid 31874 Note If your cluster is in FIPS mode, only use FIPS-compliant algorithms to generate the SSH key. The key must be either RSA or ECDSA. Add your SSH private key to the ssh-agent : USD ssh-add <path>/<file_name> 1 1 Specify the path and file name for your SSH private key, such as ~/.ssh/id_ed25519 Example output Identity added: /home/<you>/<path>/<file_name> (<computer_name>) steps When you install OpenShift Container Platform, provide the SSH public key to the installation program. 5.4. Obtaining the installation program Before you install OpenShift Container Platform, download the installation file on the host you are using for installation. Prerequisites You have a computer that runs Linux or macOS, with at least 1.2 GB of local disk space. Procedure Go to the Cluster Type page on the Red Hat Hybrid Cloud Console. If you have a Red Hat account, log in with your credentials. If you do not, create an account. Select your infrastructure provider from the Run it yourself section of the page. Select your host operating system and architecture from the dropdown menus under OpenShift Installer and click Download Installer . Place the downloaded file in the directory where you want to store the installation configuration files. Important The installation program creates several files on the computer that you use to install your cluster. You must keep the installation program and the files that the installation program creates after you finish installing the cluster. Both of the files are required to delete the cluster. Deleting the files created by the installation program does not remove your cluster, even if the cluster failed during installation. To remove your cluster, complete the OpenShift Container Platform uninstallation procedures for your specific cloud provider. Extract the installation program. For example, on a computer that uses a Linux operating system, run the following command: USD tar -xvf openshift-install-linux.tar.gz Download your installation pull secret from Red Hat OpenShift Cluster Manager . This pull secret allows you to authenticate with the services that are provided by the included authorities, including Quay.io, which serves the container images for OpenShift Container Platform components. Tip Alternatively, you can retrieve the installation program from the Red Hat Customer Portal , where you can specify a version of the installation program to download. However, you must have an active subscription to access this page. 5.5. Creating the installation configuration file You can customize the OpenShift Container Platform cluster you install on Google Cloud Platform (GCP). Prerequisites You have the OpenShift Container Platform installation program and the pull secret for your cluster. Configure a GCP account. Procedure Create the install-config.yaml file. Change to the directory that contains the installation program and run the following command: USD ./openshift-install create install-config --dir <installation_directory> 1 1 For <installation_directory> , specify the directory name to store the files that the installation program creates. When specifying the directory: Verify that the directory has the execute permission. This permission is required to run Terraform binaries under the installation directory. Use an empty directory. Some installation assets, such as bootstrap X.509 certificates, have short expiration intervals, therefore you must not reuse an installation directory. If you want to reuse individual files from another cluster installation, you can copy them into your directory. However, the file names for the installation assets might change between releases. Use caution when copying installation files from an earlier OpenShift Container Platform version. Note Always delete the ~/.powervs directory to avoid reusing a stale configuration. Run the following command: USD rm -rf ~/.powervs At the prompts, provide the configuration details for your cloud: Optional: Select an SSH key to use to access your cluster machines. Note For production OpenShift Container Platform clusters on which you want to perform installation debugging or disaster recovery, specify an SSH key that your ssh-agent process uses. Select gcp as the platform to target. If you have not configured the service account key for your GCP account on your computer, you must obtain it from GCP and paste the contents of the file or enter the absolute path to the file. Select the project ID to provision the cluster in. The default value is specified by the service account that you configured. Select the region to deploy the cluster to. Select the base domain to deploy the cluster to. The base domain corresponds to the public DNS zone that you created for your cluster. Enter a descriptive name for your cluster. Modify the install-config.yaml file. You can find more information about the available parameters in the "Installation configuration parameters" section. Back up the install-config.yaml file so that you can use it to install multiple clusters. Important The install-config.yaml file is consumed during the installation process. If you want to reuse the file, you must back it up now. Additional resources Installation configuration parameters for GCP 5.5.1. Minimum resource requirements for cluster installation Each cluster machine must meet the following minimum requirements: Table 5.1. Minimum resource requirements Machine Operating System vCPU [1] Virtual RAM Storage Input/Output Per Second (IOPS) [2] Bootstrap RHCOS 4 16 GB 100 GB 300 Control plane RHCOS 4 16 GB 100 GB 300 Compute RHCOS, RHEL 8.6 and later [3] 2 8 GB 100 GB 300 One vCPU is equivalent to one physical core when simultaneous multithreading (SMT), or Hyper-Threading, is not enabled. When enabled, use the following formula to calculate the corresponding ratio: (threads per core x cores) x sockets = vCPUs. OpenShift Container Platform and Kubernetes are sensitive to disk performance, and faster storage is recommended, particularly for etcd on the control plane nodes which require a 10 ms p99 fsync duration. Note that on many cloud platforms, storage size and IOPS scale together, so you might need to over-allocate storage volume to obtain sufficient performance. As with all user-provisioned installations, if you choose to use RHEL compute machines in your cluster, you take responsibility for all operating system life cycle management and maintenance, including performing system updates, applying patches, and completing all other required tasks. Use of RHEL 7 compute machines is deprecated and has been removed in OpenShift Container Platform 4.10 and later. Note As of OpenShift Container Platform version 4.13, RHCOS is based on RHEL version 9.2, which updates the micro-architecture requirements. The following list contains the minimum instruction set architectures (ISA) that each architecture requires: x86-64 architecture requires x86-64-v2 ISA ARM64 architecture requires ARMv8.0-A ISA IBM Power architecture requires Power 9 ISA s390x architecture requires z14 ISA For more information, see RHEL Architectures . If an instance type for your platform meets the minimum requirements for cluster machines, it is supported to use in OpenShift Container Platform. Additional resources Optimizing storage 5.5.2. Tested instance types for GCP The following Google Cloud Platform instance types have been tested with OpenShift Container Platform. Example 5.1. Machine series C2 C2D C3 E2 M1 N1 N2 N2D Tau T2D 5.5.3. Tested instance types for GCP on 64-bit ARM infrastructures The following Google Cloud Platform (GCP) 64-bit ARM instance types have been tested with OpenShift Container Platform. Example 5.2. Machine series for 64-bit ARM machines Tau T2A 5.5.4. Using custom machine types Using a custom machine type to install a OpenShift Container Platform cluster is supported. Consider the following when using a custom machine type: Similar to predefined instance types, custom machine types must meet the minimum resource requirements for control plane and compute machines. For more information, see "Minimum resource requirements for cluster installation". The name of the custom machine type must adhere to the following syntax: custom-<number_of_cpus>-<amount_of_memory_in_mb> For example, custom-6-20480 . As part of the installation process, you specify the custom machine type in the install-config.yaml file. Sample install-config.yaml file with a custom machine type compute: - architecture: amd64 hyperthreading: Enabled name: worker platform: gcp: type: custom-6-20480 replicas: 2 controlPlane: architecture: amd64 hyperthreading: Enabled name: master platform: gcp: type: custom-6-20480 replicas: 3 5.5.5. Enabling Shielded VMs You can use Shielded VMs when installing your cluster. Shielded VMs have extra security features including secure boot, firmware and integrity monitoring, and rootkit detection. For more information, see Google's documentation on Shielded VMs . Note Shielded VMs are currently not supported on clusters with 64-bit ARM infrastructures. Procedure Use a text editor to edit the install-config.yaml file prior to deploying your cluster and add one of the following stanzas: To use shielded VMs for only control plane machines: controlPlane: platform: gcp: secureBoot: Enabled To use shielded VMs for only compute machines: compute: - platform: gcp: secureBoot: Enabled To use shielded VMs for all machines: platform: gcp: defaultMachinePlatform: secureBoot: Enabled 5.5.6. Enabling Confidential VMs You can use Confidential VMs when installing your cluster. Confidential VMs encrypt data while it is being processed. For more information, see Google's documentation on Confidential Computing . You can enable Confidential VMs and Shielded VMs at the same time, although they are not dependent on each other. Note Confidential VMs are currently not supported on 64-bit ARM architectures. Procedure Use a text editor to edit the install-config.yaml file prior to deploying your cluster and add one of the following stanzas: To use confidential VMs for only control plane machines: controlPlane: platform: gcp: confidentialCompute: Enabled 1 type: n2d-standard-8 2 onHostMaintenance: Terminate 3 1 Enable confidential VMs. 2 Specify a machine type that supports Confidential VMs. Confidential VMs require the N2D or C2D series of machine types. For more information on supported machine types, see Supported operating systems and machine types . 3 Specify the behavior of the VM during a host maintenance event, such as a hardware or software update. For a machine that uses Confidential VM, this value must be set to Terminate , which stops the VM. Confidential VMs do not support live VM migration. To use confidential VMs for only compute machines: compute: - platform: gcp: confidentialCompute: Enabled type: n2d-standard-8 onHostMaintenance: Terminate To use confidential VMs for all machines: platform: gcp: defaultMachinePlatform: confidentialCompute: Enabled type: n2d-standard-8 onHostMaintenance: Terminate 5.5.7. Sample customized install-config.yaml file for GCP You can customize the install-config.yaml file to specify more details about your OpenShift Container Platform cluster's platform or modify the values of the required parameters. Important This sample YAML file is provided for reference only. You must obtain your install-config.yaml file by using the installation program and modify it. apiVersion: v1 baseDomain: example.com 1 credentialsMode: Mint 2 controlPlane: 3 4 hyperthreading: Enabled 5 name: master platform: gcp: type: n2-standard-4 zones: - us-central1-a - us-central1-c osDisk: diskType: pd-ssd diskSizeGB: 1024 encryptionKey: 6 kmsKey: name: worker-key keyRing: test-machine-keys location: global projectID: project-id tags: 7 - control-plane-tag1 - control-plane-tag2 osImage: 8 project: example-project-name name: example-image-name replicas: 3 compute: 9 10 - hyperthreading: Enabled 11 name: worker platform: gcp: type: n2-standard-4 zones: - us-central1-a - us-central1-c osDisk: diskType: pd-standard diskSizeGB: 128 encryptionKey: 12 kmsKey: name: worker-key keyRing: test-machine-keys location: global projectID: project-id tags: 13 - compute-tag1 - compute-tag2 osImage: 14 project: example-project-name name: example-image-name replicas: 3 metadata: name: test-cluster 15 networking: 16 clusterNetwork: - cidr: 10.128.0.0/14 hostPrefix: 23 machineNetwork: - cidr: 10.0.0.0/16 networkType: OVNKubernetes 17 serviceNetwork: - 172.30.0.0/16 platform: gcp: projectID: openshift-production 18 region: us-central1 19 defaultMachinePlatform: tags: 20 - global-tag1 - global-tag2 osImage: 21 project: example-project-name name: example-image-name pullSecret: '{"auths": ...}' 22 fips: false 23 sshKey: ssh-ed25519 AAAA... 24 1 15 18 19 22 Required. The installation program prompts you for this value. 2 Optional: Add this parameter to force the Cloud Credential Operator (CCO) to use the specified mode. By default, the CCO uses the root credentials in the kube-system namespace to dynamically try to determine the capabilities of the credentials. For details about CCO modes, see the "About the Cloud Credential Operator" section in the Authentication and authorization guide. 3 9 16 If you do not provide these parameters and values, the installation program provides the default value. 4 10 The controlPlane section is a single mapping, but the compute section is a sequence of mappings. To meet the requirements of the different data structures, the first line of the compute section must begin with a hyphen, - , and the first line of the controlPlane section must not. Only one control plane pool is used. 5 11 Whether to enable or disable simultaneous multithreading, or hyperthreading . By default, simultaneous multithreading is enabled to increase the performance of your machines' cores. You can disable it by setting the parameter value to Disabled . If you disable simultaneous multithreading in some cluster machines, you must disable it in all cluster machines. Important If you disable simultaneous multithreading, ensure that your capacity planning accounts for the dramatically decreased machine performance. Use larger machine types, such as n1-standard-8 , for your machines if you disable simultaneous multithreading. 6 12 Optional: The custom encryption key section to encrypt both virtual machines and persistent volumes. Your default compute service account must have the permissions granted to use your KMS key and have the correct IAM role assigned. The default service account name follows the service-<project_number>@compute-system.iam.gserviceaccount.com pattern. For more information about granting the correct permissions for your service account, see "Machine management" "Creating compute machine sets" "Creating a compute machine set on GCP". 7 13 20 Optional: A set of network tags to apply to the control plane or compute machine sets. The platform.gcp.defaultMachinePlatform.tags parameter will apply to both control plane and compute machines. If the compute.platform.gcp.tags or controlPlane.platform.gcp.tags parameters are set, they override the platform.gcp.defaultMachinePlatform.tags parameter. 8 14 21 Optional: A custom Red Hat Enterprise Linux CoreOS (RHCOS) that should be used to boot control plane and compute machines. The project and name parameters under platform.gcp.defaultMachinePlatform.osImage apply to both control plane and compute machines. If the project and name parameters under controlPlane.platform.gcp.osImage or compute.platform.gcp.osImage are set, they override the platform.gcp.defaultMachinePlatform.osImage parameters. 17 The cluster network plugin to install. The supported values are OVNKubernetes and OpenShiftSDN . The default value is OVNKubernetes . 23 Whether to enable or disable FIPS mode. By default, FIPS mode is not enabled. If FIPS mode is enabled, the Red Hat Enterprise Linux CoreOS (RHCOS) machines that OpenShift Container Platform runs on bypass the default Kubernetes cryptography suite and use the cryptography modules that are provided with RHCOS instead. Important When running Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL) or Red Hat Enterprise Linux CoreOS (RHCOS) booted in FIPS mode, OpenShift Container Platform core components use the RHEL cryptographic libraries that have been submitted to NIST for FIPS 140-2/140-3 Validation on only the x86_64, ppc64le, and s390x architectures. 24 You can optionally provide the sshKey value that you use to access the machines in your cluster. Note For production OpenShift Container Platform clusters on which you want to perform installation debugging or disaster recovery, specify an SSH key that your ssh-agent process uses. Additional resources Enabling customer-managed encryption keys for a compute machine set 5.5.8. Configuring the cluster-wide proxy during installation Production environments can deny direct access to the internet and instead have an HTTP or HTTPS proxy available. You can configure a new OpenShift Container Platform cluster to use a proxy by configuring the proxy settings in the install-config.yaml file. Prerequisites You have an existing install-config.yaml file. You reviewed the sites that your cluster requires access to and determined whether any of them need to bypass the proxy. By default, all cluster egress traffic is proxied, including calls to hosting cloud provider APIs. You added sites to the Proxy object's spec.noProxy field to bypass the proxy if necessary. Note The Proxy object status.noProxy field is populated with the values of the networking.machineNetwork[].cidr , networking.clusterNetwork[].cidr , and networking.serviceNetwork[] fields from your installation configuration. For installations on Amazon Web Services (AWS), Google Cloud Platform (GCP), Microsoft Azure, and Red Hat OpenStack Platform (RHOSP), the Proxy object status.noProxy field is also populated with the instance metadata endpoint ( 169.254.169.254 ). Procedure Edit your install-config.yaml file and add the proxy settings. For example: apiVersion: v1 baseDomain: my.domain.com proxy: httpProxy: http://<username>:<pswd>@<ip>:<port> 1 httpsProxy: https://<username>:<pswd>@<ip>:<port> 2 noProxy: example.com 3 additionalTrustBundle: | 4 -----BEGIN CERTIFICATE----- <MY_TRUSTED_CA_CERT> -----END CERTIFICATE----- additionalTrustBundlePolicy: <policy_to_add_additionalTrustBundle> 5 1 A proxy URL to use for creating HTTP connections outside the cluster. The URL scheme must be http . 2 A proxy URL to use for creating HTTPS connections outside the cluster. 3 A comma-separated list of destination domain names, IP addresses, or other network CIDRs to exclude from proxying. Preface a domain with . to match subdomains only. For example, .y.com matches x.y.com , but not y.com . Use * to bypass the proxy for all destinations. 4 If provided, the installation program generates a config map that is named user-ca-bundle in the openshift-config namespace that contains one or more additional CA certificates that are required for proxying HTTPS connections. The Cluster Network Operator then creates a trusted-ca-bundle config map that merges these contents with the Red Hat Enterprise Linux CoreOS (RHCOS) trust bundle, and this config map is referenced in the trustedCA field of the Proxy object. The additionalTrustBundle field is required unless the proxy's identity certificate is signed by an authority from the RHCOS trust bundle. 5 Optional: The policy to determine the configuration of the Proxy object to reference the user-ca-bundle config map in the trustedCA field. The allowed values are Proxyonly and Always . Use Proxyonly to reference the user-ca-bundle config map only when http/https proxy is configured. Use Always to always reference the user-ca-bundle config map. The default value is Proxyonly . Note The installation program does not support the proxy readinessEndpoints field. Note If the installer times out, restart and then complete the deployment by using the wait-for command of the installer. For example: USD ./openshift-install wait-for install-complete --log-level debug Save the file and reference it when installing OpenShift Container Platform. The installation program creates a cluster-wide proxy that is named cluster that uses the proxy settings in the provided install-config.yaml file. If no proxy settings are provided, a cluster Proxy object is still created, but it will have a nil spec . Note Only the Proxy object named cluster is supported, and no additional proxies can be created. 5.6. Installing the OpenShift CLI by downloading the binary You can install the OpenShift CLI ( oc ) to interact with OpenShift Container Platform from a command-line interface. You can install oc on Linux, Windows, or macOS. Important If you installed an earlier version of oc , you cannot use it to complete all of the commands in OpenShift Container Platform 4.14. Download and install the new version of oc . Installing the OpenShift CLI on Linux You can install the OpenShift CLI ( oc ) binary on Linux by using the following procedure.

Alternatives to storing administrator-level secrets in the kube-system project By default, administrator secrets are stored in the kube-system project. If you configured the credentialsMode parameter in the install-config.yaml file to Manual , you must use one of the following alternatives: To manage long-term cloud credentials manually, follow the procedure in Manually creating long-term credentials . To implement short-term credentials that are managed outside the cluster for individual components, follow the procedures in Configuring a GCP cluster to use short-term credentials . 5.7.1. Manually creating long-term credentials The Cloud Credential Operator (CCO) can be put into manual mode prior to installation in environments where the cloud identity and access management (IAM) APIs are not reachable, or the administrator prefers not to store an administrator-level credential secret in the cluster kube-system namespace. Procedure If you did not set the credentialsMode parameter in the install-config.yaml configuration file to Manual , modify the value as shown: Sample configuration file snippet apiVersion: v1 baseDomain: example.com credentialsMode: Manual # ... If you have not previously created installation manifest files, do so by running the following command: USD openshift-install create manifests --dir <installation_directory> where <installation_directory> is the directory in which the installation program creates files. Set a USDRELEASE_IMAGE variable with the release image from your installation file by running the following command: USD RELEASE_IMAGE=USD(./openshift-install version | awk '/release image/ {print USD3}') Extract the list of CredentialsRequest custom resources (CRs) from the OpenShift Container Platform release image by running the following command: USD oc adm release extract \ --from=USDRELEASE_IMAGE \ --credentials-requests \ --included \ 1 --install-config=<path_to_directory_with_installation_configuration>/install-config.yaml \ 2 --to=<path_to_directory_for_credentials_requests> 3 1 The --included parameter includes only the manifests that your specific cluster configuration requires. 2 Specify the location of the install-config.yaml file. 3 Specify the path to the directory where you want to store the CredentialsRequest objects. If the specified directory does not exist, this command creates it. This command creates a YAML file for each CredentialsRequest object. Sample CredentialsRequest object apiVersion: cloudcredential.openshift.io/v1 kind: CredentialsRequest metadata: name: <component_credentials_request> namespace: openshift-cloud-credential-operator ... spec: providerSpec: apiVersion: cloudcredential.openshift.io/v1 kind: GCPProviderSpec predefinedRoles: - roles/storage.admin - roles/iam.serviceAccountUser skipServiceCheck: true ... Create YAML files for secrets in the openshift-install manifests directory that you generated previously. The secrets must be stored using the namespace and secret name defined in the spec.secretRef for each CredentialsRequest object. Sample CredentialsRequest object with secrets apiVersion: cloudcredential.openshift.io/v1 kind: CredentialsRequest metadata: name: <component_credentials_request> namespace: openshift-cloud-credential-operator ... spec: providerSpec: apiVersion: cloudcredential.openshift.io/v1 ... secretRef: name: <component_secret> namespace: <component_namespace> ... Sample Secret object apiVersion: v1 kind: Secret metadata: name: <component_secret> namespace: <component_namespace> data: service_account.json: <base64_encoded_gcp_service_account_file> Important Before upgrading a cluster that uses manually maintained credentials, you must ensure that the CCO is in an upgradeable state. 5.7.2. Configuring a GCP cluster to use short-term credentials To install a cluster that is configured to use GCP Workload Identity, you must configure the CCO utility and create the required GCP resources for your cluster. 5.7.2.1. Configuring the Cloud Credential Operator utility To create and manage cloud credentials from outside of the cluster when the Cloud Credential Operator (CCO) is operating in manual mode, extract and prepare the CCO utility ( ccoctl ) binary. Note The ccoctl utility is a Linux binary that must run in a Linux environment. Prerequisites You have access to an OpenShift Container Platform account with cluster administrator access. You have installed the OpenShift CLI ( oc ). Procedure Set a variable for the OpenShift Container Platform release image by running the following command: USD RELEASE_IMAGE=USD(./openshift-install version | awk '/release image/ {print USD3}') Obtain the CCO container image from the OpenShift Container Platform release image by running the following command: USD CCO_IMAGE=USD(oc adm release info --image-for='cloud-credential-operator' USDRELEASE_IMAGE -a ~/.pull-secret) Note Ensure that the architecture of the USDRELEASE_IMAGE matches the architecture of the environment in which you will use the ccoctl tool. Extract the ccoctl binary from the CCO container image within the OpenShift Container Platform release image by running the following command: USD oc image extract USDCCO_IMAGE --file="/usr/bin/ccoctl" -a ~/.pull-secret Change the permissions to make ccoctl executable by running the following command: USD chmod 775 ccoctl Verification To verify that ccoctl is ready to use, display the help file. Use a relative file name when you run the command, for example: USD ./ccoctl.rhel9 Example output OpenShift credentials provisioning tool Usage: ccoctl [command] Available Commands: alibabacloud Manage credentials objects for alibaba cloud aws Manage credentials objects for AWS cloud azure Manage credentials objects for Azure gcp Manage credentials objects for Google cloud help Help about any command ibmcloud Manage credentials objects for IBM Cloud nutanix Manage credentials objects for Nutanix Flags: -h, --help help for ccoctl Use "ccoctl [command] --help" for more information about a command. 5.7.2.2. Creating GCP resources with the Cloud Credential Operator utility You can use the ccoctl gcp create-all command to automate the creation of GCP resources. Note By default, ccoctl creates objects in the directory in which the commands are run. To create the objects in a different directory, use the --output-dir flag. This procedure uses <path_to_ccoctl_output_dir> to refer to this directory. Prerequisites You must have: Extracted and prepared the ccoctl binary. Procedure Set a USDRELEASE_IMAGE variable with the release image from your installation file by running the following command: USD RELEASE_IMAGE=USD(./openshift-install version | awk '/release image/ {print USD3}') Extract the list of CredentialsRequest objects from the OpenShift Container Platform release image by running the following command: USD oc adm release extract \ --from=USDRELEASE_IMAGE \ --credentials-requests \ --included \ 1 --install-config=<path_to_directory_with_installation_configuration>/install-config.yaml \ 2 --to=<path_to_directory_for_credentials_requests> 3 1 The --included parameter includes only the manifests that your specific cluster configuration requires. 2 Specify the location of the install-config.yaml file. 3 Specify the path to the directory where you want to store the CredentialsRequest objects. If the specified directory does not exist, this command creates it. Note This command might take a few moments to run. Use the ccoctl tool to process all CredentialsRequest objects by running the following command: USD ccoctl gcp create-all \ --name=<name> \ 1 --region=<gcp_region> \ 2 --project=<gcp_project_id> \ 3 --credentials-requests-dir=<path_to_credentials_requests_directory> 4 1 Specify the user-defined name for all created GCP resources used for tracking. 2 Specify the GCP region in which cloud resources will be created. 3 Specify the GCP project ID in which cloud resources will be created. 4 Specify the directory containing the files of CredentialsRequest manifests to create GCP service accounts. Note If your cluster uses Technology Preview features that are enabled by the TechPreviewNoUpgrade feature set, you must include the --enable-tech-preview parameter. Verification To verify that the OpenShift Container Platform secrets are created, list the files in the <path_to_ccoctl_output_dir>/manifests directory: USD ls <path_to_ccoctl_output_dir>/manifests Example output cluster-authentication-02-config.yaml openshift-cloud-controller-manager-gcp-ccm-cloud-credentials-credentials.yaml openshift-cloud-credential-operator-cloud-credential-operator-gcp-ro-creds-credentials.yaml openshift-cloud-network-config-controller-cloud-credentials-credentials.yaml openshift-cluster-api-capg-manager-bootstrap-credentials-credentials.yaml openshift-cluster-csi-drivers-gcp-pd-cloud-credentials-credentials.yaml openshift-image-registry-installer-cloud-credentials-credentials.yaml openshift-ingress-operator-cloud-credentials-credentials.yaml openshift-machine-api-gcp-cloud-credentials-credentials.yaml You can verify that the IAM service accounts are created by querying GCP. For more information, refer to GCP documentation on listing IAM service accounts. 5.7.2.3. Incorporating the Cloud Credential Operator utility manifests To implement short-term security credentials managed outside the cluster for individual components, you must move the manifest files that the Cloud Credential Operator utility ( ccoctl ) created to the correct directories for the installation program. Prerequisites You have configured an account with the cloud platform that hosts your cluster. You have configured the Cloud Credential Operator utility ( ccoctl ). You have created the cloud provider resources that are required for your cluster with the ccoctl utility. Procedure If you did not set the credentialsMode parameter in the install-config.yaml configuration file to Manual , modify the value as shown: Sample configuration file snippet apiVersion: v1 baseDomain: example.com credentialsMode: Manual # ... If you have not previously created installation manifest files, do so by running the following command: USD openshift-install create manifests --dir <installation_directory> where <installation_directory> is the directory in which the installation program creates files. Copy the manifests that the ccoctl utility generated to the manifests directory that the installation program created by running the following command: USD cp /<path_to_ccoctl_output_dir>/manifests/* ./manifests/ Copy the tls directory that contains the private key to the installation directory: USD cp -a /<path_to_ccoctl_output_dir>/tls . 5.8. Network configuration phases There are two phases prior to OpenShift Container Platform installation where you can customize the network configuration. Phase 1 You can customize the following network-related fields in the install-config.yaml file before you create the manifest files: networking.networkType networking.clusterNetwork networking.serviceNetwork networking.machineNetwork For more information, see "Installation configuration parameters". Note Set the networking.machineNetwork to match the Classless Inter-Domain Routing (CIDR) where the preferred subnet is located. Important The CIDR range 172.17.0.0/16 is reserved by libVirt . You cannot use any other CIDR range that overlaps with the 172.17.0.0/16 CIDR range for networks in your cluster. Phase 2 After creating the manifest files by running openshift-install create manifests , you can define a customized Cluster Network Operator manifest with only the fields you want to modify. You can use the manifest to specify an advanced network configuration. During phase 2, you cannot override the values that you specified in phase 1 in the install-config.yaml file. However, you can customize the network plugin during phase 2. 5.9. Specifying advanced network configuration You can use advanced network configuration for your network plugin to integrate your cluster into your existing network environment. You can specify advanced network configuration only before you install the cluster. Important Customizing your network configuration by modifying the OpenShift Container Platform manifest files created by the installation program is not supported. Applying a manifest file that you create, as in the following procedure, is supported. Prerequisites You have created the install-config.yaml file and completed any modifications to it. Procedure Change to the directory that contains the installation program and create the manifests: USD ./openshift-install create manifests --dir <installation_directory> 1 1 <installation_directory> specifies the name of the directory that contains the install-config.yaml file for your cluster. Create a stub manifest file for the advanced network configuration that is named cluster-network-03-config.yml in the <installation_directory>/manifests/ directory: apiVersion: operator.openshift.io/v1 kind: Network metadata: name: cluster spec: Specify the advanced network configuration for your cluster in the cluster-network-03-config.yml file, such as in the following examples: Specify a different VXLAN port for the OpenShift SDN network provider apiVersion: operator.openshift.io/v1 kind: Network metadata: name: cluster spec: defaultNetwork: openshiftSDNConfig: vxlanPort: 4800 Enable IPsec for the OVN-Kubernetes network provider apiVersion: operator.openshift.io/v1 kind: Network metadata: name: cluster spec: defaultNetwork: ovnKubernetesConfig: ipsecConfig: {} Optional: Back up the manifests/cluster-network-03-config.yml file. The installation program consumes the manifests/ directory when you create the Ignition config files. 5.10. Cluster Network Operator configuration The configuration for the cluster network is specified as part of the Cluster Network Operator (CNO) configuration and stored in a custom resource (CR) object that is named cluster . The CR specifies the fields for the Network API in the operator.openshift.io API group. The CNO configuration inherits the following fields during cluster installation from the Network API in the Network.config.openshift.io API group: clusterNetwork IP address pools from which pod IP addresses are allocated. serviceNetwork IP address pool for services. defaultNetwork.type Cluster network plugin, such as OpenShift SDN or OVN-Kubernetes. You can specify the cluster network plugin configuration for your cluster by setting the fields for the defaultNetwork object in the CNO object named cluster . 5.10.1. Cluster Network Operator configuration object The fields for the Cluster Network Operator (CNO) are described in the following table: Table 5.2. Cluster Network Operator configuration object Field Type Description metadata.name string The name of the CNO object. This name is always cluster . spec.clusterNetwork array A list specifying the blocks of IP addresses from which pod IP addresses are allocated and the subnet prefix length assigned to each individual node in the cluster. For example: spec: clusterNetwork: - cidr: 10.128.0.0/19 hostPrefix: 23 - cidr: 10.128.32.0/19 hostPrefix: 23 spec.serviceNetwork array A block of IP addresses for services. The OpenShift SDN and OVN-Kubernetes network plugins support only a single IP address block for the service network. For example: spec: serviceNetwork: - 172.30.0.0/14 You can customize this field only in the install-config.yaml file before you create the manifests. The value is read-only in the manifest file. spec.defaultNetwork object Configures the network plugin for the cluster network. spec.kubeProxyConfig object The fields for this object specify the kube-proxy configuration. If you are using the OVN-Kubernetes cluster network plugin, the kube-proxy configuration has no effect. Important For a cluster that needs to deploy objects across multiple networks, ensure that you specify the same value for the clusterNetwork.hostPrefix parameter for each network type that is defined in the install-config.yaml file. Setting a different value for each clusterNetwork.hostPrefix parameter can impact the OVN-Kubernetes network plugin, where the plugin cannot effectively route object traffic among different nodes. defaultNetwork object configuration The values for the defaultNetwork object are defined in the following table: Table 5.3. defaultNetwork object Field Type Description type string Either OpenShiftSDN or OVNKubernetes . The Red Hat OpenShift Networking network plugin is selected during installation. You can change this value by migrating from OpenShift SDN to OVN-Kubernetes. Note OpenShift Container Platform uses the OVN-Kubernetes network plugin by default. openshiftSDNConfig object This object is only valid for the OpenShift SDN network plugin. ovnKubernetesConfig object This object is only valid for the OVN-Kubernetes network plugin. Configuration for the OpenShift SDN network plugin The following table describes the configuration fields for the OpenShift SDN network plugin: Table 5.4. openshiftSDNConfig object Field Type Description mode string Configures the network isolation mode for OpenShift SDN. The default value is NetworkPolicy . The values Multitenant and Subnet are available for backwards compatibility with OpenShift Container Platform 3.x but are not recommended. This value cannot be changed after cluster installation. mtu integer The maximum transmission unit (MTU) for the VXLAN overlay network. This is detected automatically based on the MTU of the primary network interface. You do not normally need to override the detected MTU. If the auto-detected value is not what you expect it to be, confirm that the MTU on the primary network interface on your nodes is correct. You cannot use this option to change the MTU value of the primary network interface on the nodes. If your cluster requires different MTU values for different nodes, you must set this value to 50 less than the lowest MTU value in your cluster. For example, if some nodes in your cluster have an MTU of 9001 , and some have an MTU of 1500 , you must set this value to 1450 . This value cannot be changed after cluster installation. vxlanPort integer The port to use for all VXLAN packets. The default value is 4789 . This value cannot be changed after cluster installation. If you are running in a virtualized environment with existing nodes that are part of another VXLAN network, then you might be required to change this. For example, when running an OpenShift SDN overlay on top of VMware NSX-T, you must select an alternate port for the VXLAN, because both SDNs use the same default VXLAN port number. On Amazon Web Services (AWS), you can select an alternate port for the VXLAN between port 9000 and port 9999 . Example OpenShift SDN configuration defaultNetwork: type: OpenShiftSDN openshiftSDNConfig: mode: NetworkPolicy mtu: 1450 vxlanPort: 4789 Configuration for the OVN-Kubernetes network plugin The following table describes the configuration fields for the OVN-Kubernetes network plugin: Table 5.5. ovnKubernetesConfig object Field Type Description mtu integer The maximum transmission unit (MTU) for the Geneve (Generic Network Virtualization Encapsulation) overlay network. This is detected automatically based on the MTU of the primary network interface. You do not normally need to override the detected MTU. If the auto-detected value is not what you expect it to be, confirm that the MTU on the primary network interface on your nodes is correct. You cannot use this option to change the MTU value of the primary network interface on the nodes. If your cluster requires different MTU values for different nodes, you must set this value to 100 less than the lowest MTU value in your cluster. For example, if some nodes in your cluster have an MTU of 9001 , and some have an MTU of 1500 , you must set this value to 1400 . genevePort integer The port to use for all Geneve packets. The default value is 6081 . This value cannot be changed after cluster installation. ipsecConfig object Specify an empty object to enable IPsec encryption. ipv4 object Specifies a configuration object for IPv4 settings. ipv6 object Specifies a configuration object for IPv6 settings. policyAuditConfig object Specify a configuration object for customizing network policy audit logging. If unset, the defaults audit log settings are used. gatewayConfig object Optional: Specify a configuration object for customizing how egress traffic is sent to the node gateway. Note While migrating egress traffic, you can expect some disruption to workloads and service traffic until the Cluster Network Operator (CNO) successfully rolls out the changes. Table 5.6. ovnKubernetesConfig.ipv4 object Field Type Description internalTransitSwitchSubnet string If your existing network infrastructure overlaps with the 100.88.0.0/16 IPv4 subnet, you can specify a different IP address range for internal use by OVN-Kubernetes. The subnet for the distributed transit switch that enables east-west traffic. This subnet cannot overlap with any other subnets used by OVN-Kubernetes or on the host itself. It must be large enough to accommodate one IP address per node in your cluster. The default value is 100.88.0.0/16 . internalJoinSubnet string If your existing network infrastructure overlaps with the 100.64.0.0/16 IPv4 subnet, you can specify a different IP address range for internal use by OVN-Kubernetes. You must ensure that the IP address range does not overlap with any other subnet used by your OpenShift Container Platform installation. The IP address range must be larger than the maximum number of nodes that can be added to the cluster. For example, if the clusterNetwork.cidr value is 10.128.0.0/14 and the clusterNetwork.hostPrefix value is /23 , then the maximum number of nodes is 2^(23-14)=512 . The default value is 100.64.0.0/16 . Table 5.7. ovnKubernetesConfig.ipv6 object Field Type Description internalTransitSwitchSubnet string If your existing network infrastructure overlaps with the fd98::/48 IPv6 subnet, you can specify a different IP address range for internal use by OVN-Kubernetes. You must ensure that the IP address range does not overlap with any other subnet used by your OpenShift Container Platform installation. The IP address range must be larger than the maximum number of nodes that can be added to the cluster. This field cannot be changed after installation. The default value is fd98::/48 . internalJoinSubnet string If your existing network infrastructure overlaps with the fd98::/64 IPv6 subnet, you can specify a different IP address range for internal use by OVN-Kubernetes. You must ensure that the IP address range does not overlap with any other subnet used by your OpenShift Container Platform installation. The IP address range must be larger than the maximum number of nodes that can be added to the cluster. The default value is fd98::/64 . Table 5.8. policyAuditConfig object Field Type Description rateLimit integer The maximum number of messages to generate every second per node. The default value is 20 messages per second. maxFileSize integer The maximum size for the audit log in bytes. The default value is 50000000 or 50 MB. maxLogFiles integer The maximum number of log files that are retained. destination string One of the following additional audit log targets: libc The libc syslog() function of the journald process on the host. udp:<host>:<port> A syslog server. Replace <host>:<port> with the host and port of the syslog server. unix:<file> A Unix Domain Socket file specified by <file> . null Do not send the audit logs to any additional target. syslogFacility string The syslog facility, such as kern , as defined by RFC5424. The default value is local0 . Table 5.9. gatewayConfig object Field Type Description routingViaHost boolean Set this field to true to send egress traffic from pods to the host networking stack. For highly-specialized installations and applications that rely on manually configured routes in the kernel routing table, you might want to route egress traffic to the host networking stack. By default, egress traffic is processed in OVN to exit the cluster and is not affected by specialized routes in the kernel routing table. The default value is false . This field has an interaction with the Open vSwitch hardware offloading feature. If you set this field to true , you do not receive the performance benefits of the offloading because egress traffic is processed by the host networking stack. ipForwarding object You can control IP forwarding for all traffic on OVN-Kubernetes managed interfaces by using the ipForwarding specification in the Network resource. Specify Restricted to only allow IP forwarding for Kubernetes related traffic. Specify Global to allow forwarding of all IP traffic. For new installations, the default is Restricted . For updates to OpenShift Container Platform 4.14, the default is Global . ipv4 object Optional: Specify an object to configure the internal OVN-Kubernetes masquerade address for host to service traffic for IPv4 addresses. ipv6 object Optional: Specify an object to configure the internal OVN-Kubernetes masquerade address for host to service traffic for IPv6 addresses. Table 5.10. gatewayConfig.ipv4 object Field Type Description internalMasqueradeSubnet string The masquerade IPv4 addresses that are used internally to enable host to service traffic. The host is configured with these IP addresses as well as the shared gateway bridge interface. The default value is 169.254.169.0/29 . Table 5.11. gatewayConfig.ipv6 object Field Type Description internalMasqueradeSubnet string The masquerade IPv6 addresses that are used internally to enable host to service traffic. The host is configured with these IP addresses as well as the shared gateway bridge interface. The default value is fd69::/125 . Example OVN-Kubernetes configuration with IPSec enabled defaultNetwork: type: OVNKubernetes ovnKubernetesConfig: mtu: 1400 genevePort: 6081 ipsecConfig: {} kubeProxyConfig object configuration (OpenShiftSDN container network interface only) The values for the kubeProxyConfig object are defined in the following table: Table 5.12. kubeProxyConfig object Field Type Description iptablesSyncPeriod string The refresh period for iptables rules. The default value is 30s . Valid suffixes include s , m , and h and are described in the Go time package documentation. Note Because of performance improvements introduced in OpenShift Container Platform 4.3 and greater, adjusting the iptablesSyncPeriod parameter is no longer necessary. proxyArguments.iptables-min-sync-period array The minimum duration before refreshing iptables rules. This field ensures that the refresh does not happen too frequently. Valid suffixes include s , m , and h and are described in the Go time package . The default value is: kubeProxyConfig: proxyArguments: iptables-min-sync-period: - 0s 5.11. Deploying the cluster You can install OpenShift Container Platform on a compatible cloud platform. Important You can run the create cluster command of the installation program only once, during initial installation. Prerequisites You have configured an account with the cloud platform that hosts your cluster. You have the OpenShift Container Platform installation program and the pull secret for your cluster. You have verified that the cloud provider account on your host has the correct permissions to deploy the cluster. An account with incorrect permissions causes the installation process to fail with an error message that displays the missing permissions. Procedure Remove any existing GCP credentials that do not use the service account key for the GCP account that you configured for your cluster and that are stored in the following locations: The GOOGLE_CREDENTIALS , GOOGLE_CLOUD_KEYFILE_JSON , or GCLOUD_KEYFILE_JSON environment variables The ~/.gcp/osServiceAccount.json file The gcloud cli default credentials Change to the directory that contains the installation program and initialize the cluster deployment: USD ./openshift-install create cluster --dir <installation_directory> \ 1 --log-level=info 2 1 For <installation_directory> , specify the location of your customized ./install-config.yaml file. 2 To view different installation details, specify warn , debug , or error instead of info . Optional: You can reduce the number of permissions for the service account that you used to install the cluster. If you assigned the Owner role to your service account, you can remove that role and replace it with the Viewer role. If you included the Service Account Key Admin role, you can remove it. Verification When the cluster deployment completes successfully: The terminal displays directions for accessing your cluster, including a link to the web console and credentials for the kubeadmin user. Credential information also outputs to <installation_directory>/.openshift_install.log . Important Do not delete the installation program or the files that the installation program creates. Both are required to delete the cluster. Example output ... INFO Install complete! INFO To access the cluster as the system:admin user when using 'oc', run 'export KUBECONFIG=/home/myuser/install_dir/auth/kubeconfig' INFO Access the OpenShift web-console here: https://console-openshift-console.apps.mycluster.example.com INFO Login to the console with user: "kubeadmin", and password: "password" INFO Time elapsed: 36m22s Important The Ignition config files that the installation program generates contain certificates that expire after 24 hours, which are then renewed at that time. If the cluster is shut down before renewing the certificates and the cluster is later restarted after the 24 hours have elapsed, the cluster automatically recovers the expired certificates. The exception is that you must manually approve the pending node-bootstrapper certificate signing requests (CSRs) to recover kubelet certificates. See the documentation for Recovering from expired control plane certificates for more information. It is recommended that you use Ignition config files within 12 hours after they are generated because the 24-hour certificate rotates from 16 to 22 hours after the cluster is installed. By using the Ignition config files within 12 hours, you can avoid installation failure if the certificate update runs during installation. 5.12. Logging in to the cluster by using the CLI You can log in to your cluster as a default system user by exporting the cluster kubeconfig file. The kubeconfig file contains information about the cluster that is used by the CLI to connect a client to the correct cluster and API server. The file is specific to a cluster and is created during OpenShift Container Platform installation. Prerequisites You deployed an OpenShift Container Platform cluster. You installed the oc CLI. Procedure Export the kubeadmin credentials: USD export KUBECONFIG=<installation_directory>/auth/kubeconfig 1 1 For <installation_directory> , specify the path to the directory that you stored the installation files in. Verify you can run oc commands successfully using the exported configuration: USD oc whoami Example output system:admin Additional resources See Accessing the web console for more details about accessing and understanding the OpenShift Container Platform web console. 5.13. Telemetry access for OpenShift Container Platform In OpenShift Container Platform 4.14, the Telemetry service, which runs by default to provide metrics about cluster health and the success of updates, requires internet access. If your cluster is connected to the internet, Telemetry runs automatically, and your cluster is registered to OpenShift Cluster Manager . After you confirm that your OpenShift Cluster Manager inventory is correct, either maintained automatically by Telemetry or manually by using OpenShift Cluster Manager, use subscription watch to track your OpenShift Container Platform subscriptions at the account or multi-cluster level. Additional resources See About remote health monitoring for more information about the Telemetry service 5.14. steps Customize your cluster . If necessary, you can opt out of remote health reporting .
