Chapter 7. Installing a cluster on OpenStack in a restricted network In OpenShift Container Platform 4.13, you can install a cluster on Red Hat OpenStack Platform (RHOSP) in a restricted network by creating an internal mirror of the installation release content. 7.1. 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 verified that OpenShift Container Platform 4.13 is compatible with your RHOSP version by using the Supported platforms for OpenShift clusters section. You can also compare platform support across different versions by viewing the OpenShift Container Platform on RHOSP support matrix . You created a registry on your mirror host and obtained the imageContentSources data for your version of OpenShift Container Platform. Important Because the installation media is on the mirror host, you can use that computer to complete all installation steps. You understand performance and scalability practices for cluster scaling, control plane sizing, and etcd. For more information, see Recommended practices for scaling the cluster . You have the metadata service enabled in RHOSP. 7.2. About installations in restricted networks In OpenShift Container Platform 4.13, you can perform an installation that does not require an active connection to the internet to obtain software components. Restricted network installations can be completed using installer-provisioned infrastructure or user-provisioned infrastructure, depending on the cloud platform to which you are installing the cluster. If you choose to perform a restricted network installation on a cloud platform, you still require access to its cloud APIs. Some cloud functions, like Amazon Web Service's Route 53 DNS and IAM services, require internet access. Depending on your network, you might require less internet access for an installation on bare metal hardware, Nutanix, or on VMware vSphere. To complete a restricted network installation, you must create a registry that mirrors the contents of the OpenShift image registry and contains the installation media. You can create this registry on a mirror host, which can access both the internet and your closed network, or by using other methods that meet your restrictions. 7.2.1. Additional limits Clusters in restricted networks have the following additional limitations and restrictions: The ClusterVersion status includes an Unable to retrieve available updates error. By default, you cannot use the contents of the Developer Catalog because you cannot access the required image stream tags. 7.3. Resource guidelines for installing OpenShift Container Platform on RHOSP To support an OpenShift Container Platform installation, your Red Hat OpenStack Platform (RHOSP) quota must meet the following requirements: Table 7.1. Recommended resources for a default OpenShift Container Platform cluster on RHOSP Resource Value Floating IP addresses 3 Ports 15 Routers 1 Subnets 1 RAM 88 GB vCPUs 22 Volume storage 275 GB Instances 7 Security groups 3 Security group rules 60 Server groups 2 - plus 1 for each additional availability zone in each machine pool A cluster might function with fewer than recommended resources, but its performance is not guaranteed. Important If RHOSP object storage (Swift) is available and operated by a user account with the swiftoperator role, it is used as the default backend for the OpenShift Container Platform image registry. In this case, the volume storage requirement is 175 GB. Swift space requirements vary depending on the size of the image registry. Note By default, your security group and security group rule quotas might be low. If you encounter problems, run openstack quota set --secgroups 3 --secgroup-rules 60 <project> as an administrator to increase them. An OpenShift Container Platform deployment comprises control plane machines, compute machines, and a bootstrap machine. 7.3.1. Control plane machines By default, the OpenShift Container Platform installation process creates three control plane machines. Each machine requires: An instance from the RHOSP quota A port from the RHOSP quota A flavor with at least 16 GB memory and 4 vCPUs At least 100 GB storage space from the RHOSP quota 7.3.2. Compute machines By default, the OpenShift Container Platform installation process creates three compute machines. Each machine requires: An instance from the RHOSP quota A port from the RHOSP quota A flavor with at least 8 GB memory and 2 vCPUs At least 100 GB storage space from the RHOSP quota Tip Compute machines host the applications that you run on OpenShift Container Platform; aim to run as many as you can. 7.3.3. Bootstrap machine During installation, a bootstrap machine is temporarily provisioned to stand up the control plane. After the production control plane is ready, the bootstrap machine is deprovisioned. The bootstrap machine requires: An instance from the RHOSP quota A port from the RHOSP quota A flavor with at least 16 GB memory and 4 vCPUs At least 100 GB storage space from the RHOSP quota 7.4. Internet access for OpenShift Container Platform In OpenShift Container Platform 4.13, you require access to the internet to obtain the images that are necessary to install your cluster. You must have internet access to: Access OpenShift Cluster Manager Hybrid Cloud Console 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. 7.5. Enabling Swift on RHOSP Swift is operated by a user account with the swiftoperator role. Add the role to an account before you run the installation program. Important If the Red Hat OpenStack Platform (RHOSP) object storage service , commonly known as Swift, is available, OpenShift Container Platform uses it as the image registry storage. If it is unavailable, the installation program relies on the RHOSP block storage service, commonly known as Cinder. If Swift is present and you want to use it, you must enable access to it. If it is not present, or if you do not want to use it, skip this section. Important RHOSP 17 sets the rgw_max_attr_size parameter of Ceph RGW to 256 characters. This setting causes issues with uploading container images to the OpenShift Container Platform registry. You must set the value of rgw_max_attr_size to at least 1024 characters. Before installation, check if your RHOSP deployment is affected by this problem. If it is, reconfigure Ceph RGW. Prerequisites You have a RHOSP administrator account on the target environment. The Swift service is installed. On Ceph RGW , the account in url option is enabled. Procedure To enable Swift on RHOSP: As an administrator in the RHOSP CLI, add the swiftoperator role to the account that will access Swift: USD openstack role add --user <user> --project <project> swiftoperator Your RHOSP deployment can now use Swift for the image registry. 7.6. Defining parameters for the installation program The OpenShift Container Platform installation program relies on a file that is called clouds.yaml . The file describes Red Hat OpenStack Platform (RHOSP) configuration parameters, including the project name, log in information, and authorization service URLs. Procedure Create the clouds.yaml file: If your RHOSP distribution includes the Horizon web UI, generate a clouds.yaml file in it. Important Remember to add a password to the auth field. You can also keep secrets in a separate file from clouds.yaml . If your RHOSP distribution does not include the Horizon web UI, or you do not want to use Horizon, create the file yourself. For detailed information about clouds.yaml , see Config files in the RHOSP documentation. clouds: shiftstack: auth: auth_url: http://10.10.14.42:5000/v3 project_name: shiftstack username: <username> password: <password> user_domain_name: Default project_domain_name: Default dev-env: region_name: RegionOne auth: username: <username> password: <password> project_name: 'devonly' auth_url: 'https://10.10.14.22:5001/v2.0' If your RHOSP installation uses self-signed certificate authority (CA) certificates for endpoint authentication: Copy the certificate authority file to your machine. Add the cacerts key to the clouds.yaml file. The value must be an absolute, non-root-accessible path to the CA certificate: clouds: shiftstack: ... cacert: "/etc/pki/ca-trust/source/anchors/ca.crt.pem" Tip After you run the installer with a custom CA certificate, you can update the certificate by editing the value of the ca-cert.pem key in the cloud-provider-config keymap. On a command line, run: USD oc edit configmap -n openshift-config cloud-provider-config Place the clouds.yaml file in one of the following locations: The value of the OS_CLIENT_CONFIG_FILE environment variable The current directory A Unix-specific user configuration directory, for example ~/.config/openstack/clouds.yaml A Unix-specific site configuration directory, for example /etc/openstack/clouds.yaml The installation program searches for clouds.yaml in that order. 7.6.1. Example installation configuration section that uses failure domains Important RHOSP failure domains is a Technology Preview feature only. Technology Preview features are not supported with Red Hat production service level agreements (SLAs) and might not be functionally complete. Red Hat does not recommend using them in production. These features provide early access to upcoming product features, enabling customers to test functionality and provide feedback during the development process. For more information about the support scope of Red Hat Technology Preview features, see Technology Preview Features Support Scope . The following section of an install-config.yaml file demonstrates the use of failure domains in a cluster to deploy on Red Hat OpenStack Platform (RHOSP): # ... controlPlane: name: master platform: openstack: type: m1.large failureDomains: - computeAvailabilityZone: 'nova-1' storageAvailabilityZone: 'cinder-1' portTargets: - id: control-plane network: id: 8db6a48e-375b-4caa-b20b-5b9a7218bfe6 - computeAvailabilityZone: 'nova-2' storageAvailabilityZone: 'cinder-2' portTargets: - id: control-plane network: id: 39a7b82a-a8a4-45a4-ba5a-288569a6edd1 - computeAvailabilityZone: 'nova-3' storageAvailabilityZone: 'cinder-3' portTargets: - id: control-plane network: id: 8e4b4e0d-3865-4a9b-a769-559270271242 featureSet: TechPreviewNoUpgrade # ... 7.7. Setting OpenStack Cloud Controller Manager options Optionally, you can edit the OpenStack Cloud Controller Manager (CCM) configuration for your cluster. This configuration controls how OpenShift Container Platform interacts with Red Hat OpenStack Platform (RHOSP). For a complete list of configuration parameters, see the "OpenStack Cloud Controller Manager reference guide" page in the "Installing on OpenStack" documentation. Procedure If you have not already generated manifest files for your cluster, generate them by running the following command: USD openshift-install --dir <destination_directory> create manifests In a text editor, open the cloud-provider configuration manifest file. For example: USD vi openshift/manifests/cloud-provider-config.yaml Modify the options according to the CCM reference guide. Configuring Octavia for load balancing is a common case for clusters that do not use Kuryr. For example: #... [LoadBalancer] use-octavia=true 1 lb-provider = "amphora" 2 floating-network-id="d3deb660-4190-40a3-91f1-37326fe6ec4a" 3 create-monitor = True 4 monitor-delay = 10s 5 monitor-timeout = 10s 6 monitor-max-retries = 1 7 #... 1 This property enables Octavia integration. 2 This property sets the Octavia provider that your load balancer uses. It accepts "ovn" or "amphora" as values. If you choose to use OVN, you must also set lb-method to SOURCE_IP_PORT . 3 This property is required if you want to use multiple external networks with your cluster. The cloud provider creates floating IP addresses on the network that is specified here. 4 This property controls whether the cloud provider creates health monitors for Octavia load balancers. Set the value to True to create health monitors. As of RHOSP 16.2, this feature is only available for the Amphora provider. 5 This property sets the frequency with which endpoints are monitored. The value must be in the time.ParseDuration() format. This property is required if the value of the create-monitor property is True . 6 This property sets the time that monitoring requests are open before timing out. The value must be in the time.ParseDuration() format. This property is required if the value of the create-monitor property is True . 7 This property defines how many successful monitoring requests are required before a load balancer is marked as online. The value must be an integer. This property is required if the value of the create-monitor property is True . Important Prior to saving your changes, verify that the file is structured correctly. Clusters might fail if properties are not placed in the appropriate section. Important You must set the value of the create-monitor property to True if you use services that have the value of the .spec.externalTrafficPolicy property set to Local . The OVN Octavia provider in RHOSP 16.2 does not support health monitors. Therefore, services that have ETP parameter values set to Local might not respond when the lb-provider value is set to "ovn" . Important For installations that use Kuryr, Kuryr handles relevant services. There is no need to configure Octavia load balancing in the cloud provider. Save the changes to the file and proceed with installation. Tip You can update your cloud provider configuration after you run the installer. On a command line, run: USD oc edit configmap -n openshift-config cloud-provider-config After you save your changes, your cluster will take some time to reconfigure itself. The process is complete if none of your nodes have a SchedulingDisabled status. 7.8. Creating the RHCOS image for restricted network installations Download the Red Hat Enterprise Linux CoreOS (RHCOS) image to install OpenShift Container Platform on a restricted network Red Hat OpenStack Platform (RHOSP) environment. Prerequisites Obtain the OpenShift Container Platform installation program. For a restricted network installation, the program is on your mirror registry host. Procedure Log in to the Red Hat Customer Portal's Product Downloads page . Under Version , select the most recent release of OpenShift Container Platform 4.13 for RHEL 8. Important The RHCOS images might not change with every release of OpenShift Container Platform. You must download images with the highest version that is less than or equal to the OpenShift Container Platform version that you install. Use the image versions that match your OpenShift Container Platform version if they are available. Download the Red Hat Enterprise Linux CoreOS (RHCOS) - OpenStack Image (QCOW) image. Decompress the image. Note You must decompress the image before the cluster can use it. The name of the downloaded file might not contain a compression extension, like .gz or .tgz . To find out if or how the file is compressed, in a command line, enter: Upload the image that you decompressed to a location that is accessible from the bastion server, like Glance. For example: Important Depending on your RHOSP environment, you might be able to upload the image in either .raw or .qcow2 formats . If you use Ceph, you must use the .raw format. Warning If the installation program finds multiple images with the same name, it chooses one of them at random. To avoid this behavior, create unique names for resources in RHOSP. The image is now available for a restricted installation. Note the image name or location for use in OpenShift Container Platform deployment. 7.9. Creating the installation configuration file You can customize the OpenShift Container Platform cluster you install on Red Hat OpenStack Platform (RHOSP). Prerequisites Obtain the OpenShift Container Platform installation program and the pull secret for your cluster. For a restricted network installation, these files are on your mirror host. Have the imageContentSources values that were generated during mirror registry creation. Obtain the contents of the certificate for your mirror registry. Retrieve a Red Hat Enterprise Linux CoreOS (RHCOS) image and upload it to an accessible location. Obtain service principal permissions at the subscription level. 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 openstack as the platform to target. Specify the Red Hat OpenStack Platform (RHOSP) external network name to use for installing the cluster. Specify the floating IP address to use for external access to the OpenShift API. Specify a RHOSP flavor with at least 16 GB RAM to use for control plane nodes and 8 GB RAM for compute nodes. Select the base domain to deploy the cluster to. All DNS records will be sub-domains of this base and will also include the cluster name. Enter a name for your cluster. The name must be 14 or fewer characters long. Paste the pull secret from the Red Hat OpenShift Cluster Manager . In the install-config.yaml file, set the value of platform.openstack.clusterOSImage to the image location or name. For example: platform: openstack: clusterOSImage: http://mirror.example.com/images/rhcos-43.81.201912131630.0-openstack.x86_64.qcow2.gz?sha256=ffebbd68e8a1f2a245ca19522c16c86f67f9ac8e4e0c1f0a812b068b16f7265d Edit the install-config.yaml file to give the additional information that is required for an installation in a restricted network. Update the pullSecret value to contain the authentication information for your registry: pullSecret: '{"auths":{"<mirror_host_name>:5000": {"auth": "<credentials>","email": "you@example.com"}}}' For <mirror_host_name> , specify the registry domain name that you specified in the certificate for your mirror registry, and for <credentials> , specify the base64-encoded user name and password for your mirror registry. Add the additionalTrustBundle parameter and value. additionalTrustBundle: | -----BEGIN CERTIFICATE----- ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ -----END CERTIFICATE----- The value must be the contents of the certificate file that you used for your mirror registry. The certificate file can be an existing, trusted certificate authority, or the self-signed certificate that you generated for the mirror registry. Add the image content resources, which resemble the following YAML excerpt: imageContentSources: - mirrors: - <mirror_host_name>:5000/<repo_name>/release source: quay.io/openshift-release-dev/ocp-release - mirrors: - <mirror_host_name>:5000/<repo_name>/release source: registry.redhat.io/ocp/release For these values, use the imageContentSources that you recorded during mirror registry creation. Make any other modifications to the install-config.yaml file that you require. 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. 7.9.1. 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. Note Kuryr installations default to HTTP proxies. Prerequisites For Kuryr installations on restricted networks that use the Proxy object, the proxy must be able to reply to the router that the cluster uses. To add a static route for the proxy configuration, from a command line as the root user, enter: USD ip route add <cluster_network_cidr> via <installer_subnet_gateway> The restricted subnet must have a gateway that is defined and available to be linked to the Router resource that Kuryr creates. 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. 7.9.2. Installation configuration parameters Before you deploy an OpenShift Container Platform cluster, you provide parameter values to describe your account on the cloud platform that hosts your cluster and optionally customize your cluster's platform. When you create the install-config.yaml installation configuration file, you provide values for the required parameters through the command line. If you customize your cluster, you can modify the install-config.yaml file to provide more details about the platform. Note After installation, you cannot modify these parameters in the install-config.yaml file. 7.9.2.1. Required configuration parameters Required installation configuration parameters are described in the following table: Table 7.2. Required parameters Parameter Description Values apiVersion The API version for the install-config.yaml content. The current version is v1 . The installation program may also support older API versions. String baseDomain The base domain of your cloud provider. The base domain is used to create routes to your OpenShift Container Platform cluster components. The full DNS name for your cluster is a combination of the baseDomain and metadata.name parameter values that uses the <metadata.name>.<baseDomain> format. A fully-qualified domain or subdomain name, such as example.com . metadata Kubernetes resource ObjectMeta , from which only the name parameter is consumed. Object metadata.name The name of the cluster. DNS records for the cluster are all subdomains of {{.metadata.name}}.{{.baseDomain}} . String of lowercase letters, hyphens ( - ), and periods ( . ), such as dev . The string must be 14 characters or fewer long. platform The configuration for the specific platform upon which to perform the installation: alibabacloud , aws , baremetal , azure , gcp , ibmcloud , nutanix , openstack , ovirt , powervs , vsphere , or {} . For additional information about platform.<platform> parameters, consult the table for your specific platform that follows. Object pullSecret Get a pull secret from the Red Hat OpenShift Cluster Manager to authenticate downloading container images for OpenShift Container Platform components from services such as Quay.io. { "auths":{ "cloud.openshift.com":{ "auth":"b3Blb=", "email":"you@example.com" }, "quay.io":{ "auth":"b3Blb=", "email":"you@example.com" } } } 7.9.2.2. Network configuration parameters You can customize your installation configuration based on the requirements of your existing network infrastructure. For example, you can expand the IP address block for the cluster network or provide different IP address blocks than the defaults. Only IPv4 addresses are supported. Note Globalnet is not supported with Red Hat OpenShift Data Foundation disaster recovery solutions. For regional disaster recovery scenarios, ensure that you use a nonoverlapping range of private IP addresses for the cluster and service networks in each cluster. Table 7.3. Network parameters Parameter Description Values networking The configuration for the cluster network. Object Note You cannot modify parameters specified by the networking object after installation. networking.networkType The Red Hat OpenShift Networking network plugin to install.

If the parameter is not set, or if the value is OpenShiftManagedDefault , the cluster uses the default load balancer. UserManaged or OpenShiftManagedDefault . platform.openstack.machinesSubnet The UUID of a RHOSP subnet that the cluster's nodes use. Nodes and virtual IP (VIP) ports are created on this subnet. The first item in networking.machineNetwork must match the value of machinesSubnet . If you deploy to a custom subnet, you cannot specify an external DNS server to the OpenShift Container Platform installer. Instead, add DNS to the subnet in RHOSP . A UUID as a string. For example, fa806b2f-ac49-4bce-b9db-124bc64209bf . 7.9.2.6. RHOSP parameters for failure domains Important RHOSP failure domains is a Technology Preview feature only. Technology Preview features are not supported with Red Hat production service level agreements (SLAs) and might not be functionally complete. Red Hat does not recommend using them in production. These features provide early access to upcoming product features, enabling customers to test functionality and provide feedback during the development process. For more information about the support scope of Red Hat Technology Preview features, see Technology Preview Features Support Scope . Red Hat OpenStack Platform (RHOSP) deployments do not have a single implementation of failure domains. Instead, availability zones are defined individually for each service, such as the compute service, Nova; the networking service, Neutron; and the storage service, Cinder. Beginning with OpenShift Container Platform 4.13, there is a unified definition of failure domains for RHOSP deployments that covers all supported availability zone types. You can use failure domains to control related aspects of Nova, Neutron, and Cinder configurations from a single place. In RHOSP, a port describes a network connection and maps to an interface inside a compute machine. A port also: Is defined by a network or by one more or subnets Connects a machine to one or more subnets Failure domains group the services of your deployment by using ports. If you use failure domains, each machine connects to: The portTarget object with the ID control-plane while that object exists. All non-control-plane portTarget objects within its own failure domain. All networks in the machine pool's additionalNetworkIDs list. To configure failure domains for a machine pool, edit availability zone and port target parameters under controlPlane.platform.openstack.failureDomains . Table 7.7. RHOSP parameters for failure domains Parameter Description Values platform.openstack.failuredomains.computeAvailabilityZone An availability zone for the server. If not specified, the cluster default is used. The name of the availability zone. For example, nova-1 . platform.openstack.failuredomains.storageAvailabilityZone An availability zone for the root volume. If not specified, the cluster default is used. The name of the availability zone. For example, cinder-1 . platform.openstack.failuredomains.portTargets A list of portTarget objects, each of which defines a network connection to attach to machines within a failure domain. A list of portTarget objects. platform.openstack.failuredomains.portTargets.portTarget.id The ID of an individual port target. To select that port target as the first network for machines, set the value of this parameter to control-plane . If this parameter has a different value, it is ignored. control-plane or an arbitrary string. platform.openstack.failuredomains.portTargets.portTarget.network Required. The name or ID of the network to attach to machines in the failure domain. A network object that contains either a name or UUID. For example: network: id: 8db6a48e-375b-4caa-b20b-5b9a7218bfe6 or: network: name: my-network-1 platform.openstack.failuredomains.portTargets.portTarget.fixedIPs Subnets to allocate fixed IP addresses to. These subnets must exist within the same network as the port. A list of subnet objects. Note You cannot combine zone fields and failure domains. If you want to use failure domains, the controlPlane.zone and controlPlane.rootVolume.zone fields must be left unset. 7.9.3. Sample customized install-config.yaml file for restricted OpenStack installations This sample install-config.yaml demonstrates all of the possible Red Hat OpenStack Platform (RHOSP) customization options.

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. 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 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. 7.11. Enabling access to the environment At deployment, all OpenShift Container Platform machines are created in a Red Hat OpenStack Platform (RHOSP)-tenant network. Therefore, they are not accessible directly in most RHOSP deployments. You can configure OpenShift Container Platform API and application access by using floating IP addresses (FIPs) during installation. You can also complete an installation without configuring FIPs, but the installer will not configure a way to reach the API or applications externally. 7.11.1. Enabling access with floating IP addresses Create floating IP (FIP) addresses for external access to the OpenShift Container Platform API and cluster applications. Procedure Using the Red Hat OpenStack Platform (RHOSP) CLI, create the API FIP: USD openstack floating ip create --description "API <cluster_name>.<base_domain>" <external_network> Using the Red Hat OpenStack Platform (RHOSP) CLI, create the apps, or Ingress, FIP: USD openstack floating ip create --description "Ingress <cluster_name>.<base_domain>" <external_network> Add records that follow these patterns to your DNS server for the API and Ingress FIPs: api.<cluster_name>.<base_domain>. IN A <API_FIP> *.apps.<cluster_name>.<base_domain>. IN A <apps_FIP> Note If you do not control the DNS server, you can access the cluster by adding the cluster domain names such as the following to your /etc/hosts file: <api_floating_ip> api.<cluster_name>.<base_domain> <application_floating_ip> grafana-openshift-monitoring.apps.<cluster_name>.<base_domain> <application_floating_ip> prometheus-k8s-openshift-monitoring.apps.<cluster_name>.<base_domain> <application_floating_ip> oauth-openshift.apps.<cluster_name>.<base_domain> <application_floating_ip> console-openshift-console.apps.<cluster_name>.<base_domain> application_floating_ip integrated-oauth-server-openshift-authentication.apps.<cluster_name>.<base_domain> The cluster domain names in the /etc/hosts file grant access to the web console and the monitoring interface of your cluster locally. You can also use the kubectl or oc . You can access the user applications by using the additional entries pointing to the <application_floating_ip>. This action makes the API and applications accessible to only you, which is not suitable for production deployment, but does allow installation for development and testing. Add the FIPs to the install-config.yaml file as the values of the following parameters: platform.openstack.ingressFloatingIP platform.openstack.apiFloatingIP If you use these values, you must also enter an external network as the value of the platform.openstack.externalNetwork parameter in the install-config.yaml file. Tip You can make OpenShift Container Platform resources available outside of the cluster by assigning a floating IP address and updating your firewall configuration. 7.11.2. Completing installation without floating IP addresses You can install OpenShift Container Platform on Red Hat OpenStack Platform (RHOSP) without providing floating IP addresses. In the install-config.yaml file, do not define the following parameters: platform.openstack.ingressFloatingIP platform.openstack.apiFloatingIP If you cannot provide an external network, you can also leave platform.openstack.externalNetwork blank. If you do not provide a value for platform.openstack.externalNetwork , a router is not created for you, and, without additional action, the installer will fail to retrieve an image from Glance. You must configure external connectivity on your own. If you run the installer from a system that cannot reach the cluster API due to a lack of floating IP addresses or name resolution, installation fails. To prevent installation failure in these cases, you can use a proxy network or run the installer from a system that is on the same network as your machines. Note You can enable name resolution by creating DNS records for the API and Ingress ports. For example: api.<cluster_name>.<base_domain>. IN A <api_port_IP> *.apps.<cluster_name>.<base_domain>. IN A <ingress_port_IP> If you do not control the DNS server, you can add the record to your /etc/hosts file. This action makes the API accessible to only you, which is not suitable for production deployment but does allow installation for development and testing. 7.12. 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 Obtain the OpenShift Container Platform installation program and the pull secret for your cluster. Verify 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 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 . 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. 7.13. Verifying cluster status You can verify your OpenShift Container Platform cluster's status during or after installation. Procedure In the cluster environment, export the administrator's kubeconfig file: 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. 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. View the control plane and compute machines created after a deployment: USD oc get nodes View your cluster's version: USD oc get clusterversion View your Operators' status: USD oc get clusteroperator View all running pods in the cluster: USD oc get pods -A 7.14. 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. 7.15. Disabling the default OperatorHub catalog sources Operator catalogs that source content provided by Red Hat and community projects are configured for OperatorHub by default during an OpenShift Container Platform installation. In a restricted network environment, you must disable the default catalogs as a cluster administrator. Procedure Disable the sources for the default catalogs by adding disableAllDefaultSources: true to the OperatorHub object: USD oc patch OperatorHub cluster --type json \ -p '[{"op": "add", "path": "/spec/disableAllDefaultSources", "value": true}]' Tip Alternatively, you can use the web console to manage catalog sources. From the Administration Cluster Settings Configuration OperatorHub page, click the Sources tab, where you can create, update, delete, disable, and enable individual sources. 7.16. Telemetry access for OpenShift Container Platform In OpenShift Container Platform 4.13, 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 Hybrid Cloud Console . After you confirm that your OpenShift Cluster Manager Hybrid Cloud Console 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 7.17. steps Customize your cluster . If the mirror registry that you used to install your cluster has a trusted CA, add it to the cluster by configuring additional trust stores . If necessary, you can opt out of remote health reporting . If necessary, see Registering your disconnected cluster Configure image streams for the Cluster Samples Operator and the must-gather tool. Learn how to use Operator Lifecycle Manager (OLM) on restricted networks . If you did not configure RHOSP to accept application traffic over floating IP addresses, configure RHOSP access with floating IP addresses .
