Chapter 6. Installing a cluster on OpenStack with Kuryr on your own infrastructure Important Kuryr is a deprecated feature. Deprecated functionality is still included in OpenShift Container Platform and continues to be supported; however, it will be removed in a future release of this product and is not recommended for new deployments. For the most recent list of major functionality that has been deprecated or removed within OpenShift Container Platform, refer to the Deprecated and removed features section of the OpenShift Container Platform release notes. In OpenShift Container Platform version 4.14, you can install a cluster on Red Hat OpenStack Platform (RHOSP) that runs on user-provisioned infrastructure. Using your own infrastructure allows you to integrate your cluster with existing infrastructure and modifications. The process requires more labor on your part than installer-provisioned installations, because you must create all RHOSP resources, like Nova servers, Neutron ports, and security groups. However, Red Hat provides Ansible playbooks to help you in the deployment process. 6.1. 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 4.14 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 have an RHOSP account where you want to install OpenShift Container Platform. You understand performance and scalability practices for cluster scaling, control plane sizing, and etcd. For more information, see Recommended practices for scaling the cluster . On the machine from which you run the installation program, you have: A single directory in which you can keep the files you create during the installation process Python 3 6.2. About Kuryr SDN Important Kuryr is a deprecated feature. Deprecated functionality is still included in OpenShift Container Platform and continues to be supported; however, it will be removed in a future release of this product and is not recommended for new deployments. For the most recent list of major functionality that has been deprecated or removed within OpenShift Container Platform, refer to the Deprecated and removed features section of the OpenShift Container Platform release notes. Kuryr is a container network interface (CNI) plugin solution that uses the Neutron and Octavia Red Hat OpenStack Platform (RHOSP) services to provide networking for pods and Services. Kuryr and OpenShift Container Platform integration is primarily designed for OpenShift Container Platform clusters running on RHOSP VMs. Kuryr improves the network performance by plugging OpenShift Container Platform pods into RHOSP SDN. In addition, it provides interconnectivity between pods and RHOSP virtual instances. Kuryr components are installed as pods in OpenShift Container Platform using the openshift-kuryr namespace: kuryr-controller - a single service instance installed on a master node. This is modeled in OpenShift Container Platform as a Deployment object. kuryr-cni - a container installing and configuring Kuryr as a CNI driver on each OpenShift Container Platform node. This is modeled in OpenShift Container Platform as a DaemonSet object. The Kuryr controller watches the OpenShift Container Platform API server for pod, service, and namespace create, update, and delete events. It maps the OpenShift Container Platform API calls to corresponding objects in Neutron and Octavia. This means that every network solution that implements the Neutron trunk port functionality can be used to back OpenShift Container Platform via Kuryr. This includes open source solutions such as Open vSwitch (OVS) and Open Virtual Network (OVN) as well as Neutron-compatible commercial SDNs. Kuryr is recommended for OpenShift Container Platform deployments on encapsulated RHOSP tenant networks to avoid double encapsulation, such as running an encapsulated OpenShift Container Platform SDN over an RHOSP network. If you use provider networks or tenant VLANs, you do not need to use Kuryr to avoid double encapsulation. The performance benefit is negligible. Depending on your configuration, though, using Kuryr to avoid having two overlays might still be beneficial. Kuryr is not recommended in deployments where all of the following criteria are true: The RHOSP version is less than 16. The deployment uses UDP services, or a large number of TCP services on few hypervisors. or The ovn-octavia Octavia driver is disabled. The deployment uses a large number of TCP services on few hypervisors. 6.3. Resource guidelines for installing OpenShift Container Platform on RHOSP with Kuryr When using Kuryr SDN, the pods, services, namespaces, and network policies are using resources from the RHOSP quota; this increases the minimum requirements. Kuryr also has some additional requirements on top of what a default install requires. Use the following quota to satisfy a default cluster's minimum requirements: Table 6.1. Recommended resources for a default OpenShift Container Platform cluster on RHOSP with Kuryr Resource Value Floating IP addresses 3 - plus the expected number of Services of LoadBalancer type Ports 1500 - 1 needed per Pod Routers 1 Subnets 250 - 1 needed per Namespace/Project Networks 250 - 1 needed per Namespace/Project RAM 112 GB vCPUs 28 Volume storage 275 GB Instances 7 Security groups 250 - 1 needed per Service and per NetworkPolicy Security group rules 1000 Server groups 2 - plus 1 for each additional availability zone in each machine pool Load balancers 100 - 1 needed per Service Load balancer listeners 500 - 1 needed per Service-exposed port Load balancer pools 500 - 1 needed per Service-exposed port 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. Important If you are using Red Hat OpenStack Platform (RHOSP) version 16 with the Amphora driver rather than the OVN Octavia driver, security groups are associated with service accounts instead of user projects. Take the following notes into consideration when setting resources: The number of ports that are required is larger than the number of pods. Kuryr uses ports pools to have pre-created ports ready to be used by pods and speed up the pods' booting time. Each network policy is mapped into an RHOSP security group, and depending on the NetworkPolicy spec, one or more rules are added to the security group. Each service is mapped to an RHOSP load balancer. Consider this requirement when estimating the number of security groups required for the quota. If you are using RHOSP version 15 or earlier, or the ovn-octavia driver , each load balancer has a security group with the user project. The quota does not account for load balancer resources (such as VM resources), but you must consider these resources when you decide the RHOSP deployment's size. The default installation will have more than 50 load balancers; the clusters must be able to accommodate them. If you are using RHOSP version 16 with the OVN Octavia driver enabled, only one load balancer VM is generated; services are load balanced through OVN flows. An OpenShift Container Platform deployment comprises control plane machines, compute machines, and a bootstrap machine. To enable Kuryr SDN, your environment must meet the following requirements: Run RHOSP 13+. Have Overcloud with Octavia. Use Neutron Trunk ports extension. Use openvswitch firewall driver if ML2/OVS Neutron driver is used instead of ovs-hybrid . 6.3.1. Increasing quota When using Kuryr SDN, you must increase quotas to satisfy the Red Hat OpenStack Platform (RHOSP) resources used by pods, services, namespaces, and network policies. Procedure Increase the quotas for a project by running the following command: USD sudo openstack quota set --secgroups 250 --secgroup-rules 1000 --ports 1500 --subnets 250 --networks 250 <project> 6.3.2. Configuring Neutron Kuryr CNI leverages the Neutron Trunks extension to plug containers into the Red Hat OpenStack Platform (RHOSP) SDN, so you must use the trunks extension for Kuryr to properly work. In addition, if you leverage the default ML2/OVS Neutron driver, the firewall must be set to openvswitch instead of ovs_hybrid so that security groups are enforced on trunk subports and Kuryr can properly handle network policies. 6.3.3. Configuring Octavia Kuryr SDN uses Red Hat OpenStack Platform (RHOSP)'s Octavia LBaaS to implement OpenShift Container Platform services. Thus, you must install and configure Octavia components in RHOSP to use Kuryr SDN. To enable Octavia, you must include the Octavia service during the installation of the RHOSP Overcloud, or upgrade the Octavia service if the Overcloud already exists. The following steps for enabling Octavia apply to both a clean install of the Overcloud or an Overcloud update. Note The following steps only capture the key pieces required during the deployment of RHOSP when dealing with Octavia. It is also important to note that registry methods vary. This example uses the local registry method. Procedure If you are using the local registry, create a template to upload the images to the registry. For example: (undercloud) USD openstack overcloud container image prepare \ -e /usr/share/openstack-tripleo-heat-templates/environments/services-docker/octavia.yaml \ --namespace=registry.access.redhat.com/rhosp13 \ --push-destination=<local-ip-from-undercloud.conf>:8787 \ --prefix=openstack- \ --tag-from-label {version}-{product-version} \ --output-env-file=/home/stack/templates/overcloud_images.yaml \ --output-images-file /home/stack/local_registry_images.yaml Verify that the local_registry_images.yaml file contains the Octavia images. For example: ... - imagename: registry.access.redhat.com/rhosp13/openstack-octavia-api:13.0-43 push_destination: <local-ip-from-undercloud.conf>:8787 - imagename: registry.access.redhat.com/rhosp13/openstack-octavia-health-manager:13.0-45 push_destination: <local-ip-from-undercloud.conf>:8787 - imagename: registry.access.redhat.com/rhosp13/openstack-octavia-housekeeping:13.0-45 push_destination: <local-ip-from-undercloud.conf>:8787 - imagename: registry.access.redhat.com/rhosp13/openstack-octavia-worker:13.0-44 push_destination: <local-ip-from-undercloud.conf>:8787 Note The Octavia container versions vary depending upon the specific RHOSP release installed. Pull the container images from registry.redhat.io to the Undercloud node: (undercloud) USD sudo openstack overcloud container image upload \ --config-file /home/stack/local_registry_images.yaml \ --verbose This may take some time depending on the speed of your network and Undercloud disk. Install or update your Overcloud environment with Octavia: USD openstack overcloud deploy --templates \ -e /usr/share/openstack-tripleo-heat-templates/environments/services-docker/octavia.yaml \ -e octavia_timeouts.yaml Note This command only includes the files associated with Octavia; it varies based on your specific installation of RHOSP. See the RHOSP documentation for further information. For more information on customizing your Octavia installation, see installation of Octavia using Director . Note When leveraging Kuryr SDN, the Overcloud installation requires the Neutron trunk extension. This is available by default on director deployments. Use the openvswitch firewall instead of the default ovs-hybrid when the Neutron backend is ML2/OVS. There is no need for modifications if the backend is ML2/OVN. 6.3.3.1. The Octavia OVN Driver Octavia supports multiple provider drivers through the Octavia API. To see all available Octavia provider drivers, on a command line, enter: USD openstack loadbalancer provider list Example output +---------+-------------------------------------------------+ | name | description | +---------+-------------------------------------------------+ | amphora | The Octavia Amphora driver. | | octavia | Deprecated alias of the Octavia Amphora driver. | | ovn | Octavia OVN driver. | +---------+-------------------------------------------------+ Beginning with RHOSP version 16, the Octavia OVN provider driver ( ovn ) is supported on OpenShift Container Platform on RHOSP deployments. ovn is an integration driver for the load balancing that Octavia and OVN provide. It supports basic load balancing capabilities, and is based on OpenFlow rules. The driver is automatically enabled in Octavia by Director on deployments that use OVN Neutron ML2. The Amphora provider driver is the default driver. If ovn is enabled, however, Kuryr uses it. If Kuryr uses ovn instead of Amphora, it offers the following benefits: Decreased resource requirements. Kuryr does not require a load balancer VM for each service. Reduced network latency. Increased service creation speed by using OpenFlow rules instead of a VM for each service. Distributed load balancing actions across all nodes instead of centralized on Amphora VMs. 6.3.4. Known limitations of installing with Kuryr Using OpenShift Container Platform with Kuryr SDN has several known limitations. RHOSP general limitations Using OpenShift Container Platform with Kuryr SDN has several limitations that apply to all versions and environments: Service objects with the NodePort type are not supported. Clusters that use the OVN Octavia provider driver support Service objects for which the .spec.selector property is unspecified only if the .subsets.addresses property of the Endpoints object includes the subnet of the nodes or pods. If the subnet on which machines are created is not connected to a router, or if the subnet is connected, but the router has no external gateway set, Kuryr cannot create floating IPs for Service objects with type LoadBalancer . Configuring the sessionAffinity=ClientIP property on Service objects does not have an effect. Kuryr does not support this setting. RHOSP version limitations Using OpenShift Container Platform with Kuryr SDN has several limitations that depend on the RHOSP version. RHOSP versions before 16 use the default Octavia load balancer driver (Amphora). This driver requires that one Amphora load balancer VM is deployed per OpenShift Container Platform service. Creating too many services can cause you to run out of resources. Deployments of later versions of RHOSP that have the OVN Octavia driver disabled also use the Amphora driver. They are subject to the same resource concerns as earlier versions of RHOSP. Kuryr SDN does not support automatic unidling by a service. RHOSP upgrade limitations As a result of the RHOSP upgrade process, the Octavia API might be changed, and upgrades to the Amphora images that are used for load balancers might be required. You can address API changes on an individual basis. If the Amphora image is upgraded, the RHOSP operator can handle existing load balancer VMs in two ways: Upgrade each VM by triggering a load balancer failover . Leave responsibility for upgrading the VMs to users. If the operator takes the first option, there might be short downtimes during failovers. If the operator takes the second option, the existing load balancers will not support upgraded Octavia API features, like UDP listeners. In this case, users must recreate their Services to use these features. 6.3.5. 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 6.3.6. 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. 6.3.7. 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 6.4. 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. 6.5. Downloading playbook dependencies The Ansible playbooks that simplify the installation process on user-provisioned infrastructure require several Python modules. On the machine where you will run the installer, add the modules' repositories and then download them. Note These instructions assume that you are using Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL) 8. Prerequisites Python 3 is installed on your machine. Procedure On a command line, add the repositories: Register with Red Hat Subscription Manager: USD sudo subscription-manager register # If not done already Pull the latest subscription data: USD sudo subscription-manager attach --pool=USDYOUR_POOLID # If not done already Disable the current repositories: USD sudo subscription-manager repos --disable=* # If not done already Add the required repositories: USD sudo subscription-manager repos \ --enable=rhel-8-for-x86_64-baseos-rpms \ --enable=openstack-16-tools-for-rhel-8-x86_64-rpms \ --enable=ansible-2.9-for-rhel-8-x86_64-rpms \ --enable=rhel-8-for-x86_64-appstream-rpms Install the modules: USD sudo yum install python3-openstackclient ansible python3-openstacksdk python3-netaddr ansible-collections-openstack Ensure that the python command points to python3 : USD sudo alternatives --set python /usr/bin/python3 6.6. Downloading the installation playbooks Download Ansible playbooks that you can use to install OpenShift Container Platform on your own Red Hat OpenStack Platform (RHOSP) infrastructure. Prerequisites The curl command-line tool is available on your machine. Procedure To download the playbooks to your working directory, run the following script from a command line: USD xargs -n 1 curl -O <<< ' https://raw.githubusercontent.com/openshift/installer/release-4.14/upi/openstack/bootstrap.yaml https://raw.githubusercontent.com/openshift/installer/release-4.14/upi/openstack/common.yaml https://raw.githubusercontent.com/openshift/installer/release-4.14/upi/openstack/compute-nodes.yaml https://raw.githubusercontent.com/openshift/installer/release-4.14/upi/openstack/control-plane.yaml https://raw.githubusercontent.com/openshift/installer/release-4.14/upi/openstack/inventory.yaml https://raw.githubusercontent.com/openshift/installer/release-4.14/upi/openstack/network.yaml https://raw.githubusercontent.com/openshift/installer/release-4.14/upi/openstack/security-groups.yaml https://raw.githubusercontent.com/openshift/installer/release-4.14/upi/openstack/down-bootstrap.yaml https://raw.githubusercontent.com/openshift/installer/release-4.14/upi/openstack/down-compute-nodes.yaml https://raw.githubusercontent.com/openshift/installer/release-4.14/upi/openstack/down-control-plane.yaml https://raw.githubusercontent.com/openshift/installer/release-4.14/upi/openstack/down-load-balancers.yaml https://raw.githubusercontent.com/openshift/installer/release-4.14/upi/openstack/down-network.yaml https://raw.githubusercontent.com/openshift/installer/release-4.14/upi/openstack/down-security-groups.yaml https://raw.githubusercontent.com/openshift/installer/release-4.14/upi/openstack/down-containers.yaml' The playbooks are downloaded to your machine. Important During the installation process, you can modify the playbooks to configure your deployment. Retain all playbooks for the life of your cluster. You must have the playbooks to remove your OpenShift Container Platform cluster from RHOSP. Important You must match any edits you make in the bootstrap.yaml , compute-nodes.yaml , control-plane.yaml , network.yaml , and security-groups.yaml files to the corresponding playbooks that are prefixed with down- . For example, edits to the bootstrap.yaml file must be reflected in the down-bootstrap.yaml file, too. If you do not edit both files, the supported cluster removal process will fail. 6.7. 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. 6.8. 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. 6.9. Creating the Red Hat Enterprise Linux CoreOS (RHCOS) image The OpenShift Container Platform installation program requires that a Red Hat Enterprise Linux CoreOS (RHCOS) image be present in the Red Hat OpenStack Platform (RHOSP) cluster. Retrieve the latest RHCOS image, then upload it using the RHOSP CLI. Prerequisites The RHOSP CLI is installed. Procedure Log in to the Red Hat Customer Portal's Product Downloads page . Under Version , select the most recent release of OpenShift Container Platform 4.14 for Red Hat Enterprise Linux (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) . Decompress the image. Note You must decompress the RHOSP 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: USD file <name_of_downloaded_file> From the image that you downloaded, create an image that is named rhcos in your cluster by using the RHOSP CLI: USD openstack image create --container-format=bare --disk-format=qcow2 --file rhcos-USD{RHCOS_VERSION}-openstack.qcow2 rhcos 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. After you upload the image to RHOSP, it is usable in the installation process. 6.10. Verifying external network access The OpenShift Container Platform installation process requires external network access. You must provide an external network value to it, or deployment fails. Before you begin the process, verify that a network with the external router type exists in Red Hat OpenStack Platform (RHOSP). Prerequisites Configure OpenStack's networking service to have DHCP agents forward instances' DNS queries Procedure Using the RHOSP CLI, verify the name and ID of the 'External' network: USD openstack network list --long -c ID -c Name -c "Router Type" Example output +--------------------------------------+----------------+-------------+ | ID | Name | Router Type | +--------------------------------------+----------------+-------------+ | 148a8023-62a7-4672-b018-003462f8d7dc | public_network | External | +--------------------------------------+----------------+-------------+ A network with an external router type appears in the network list. If at least one does not, see Creating a default floating IP network and Creating a default provider network . Note If the Neutron trunk service plugin is enabled, a trunk port is created by default. For more information, see Neutron trunk port . 6.11. 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. 6.11.1. Enabling access with floating IP addresses Create floating IP (FIP) addresses for external access to the OpenShift Container Platform API, cluster applications, and the bootstrap process. 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> By using the Red Hat OpenStack Platform (RHOSP) CLI, create the bootstrap FIP: USD openstack floating ip create --description "bootstrap machine" <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 inventory.yaml file as the values of the following variables: os_api_fip os_bootstrap_fip os_ingress_fip If you use these values, you must also enter an external network as the value of the os_external_network variable in the inventory.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. 6.11.2. 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 inventory.yaml file, do not define the following variables: os_api_fip os_bootstrap_fip os_ingress_fip If you cannot provide an external network, you can also leave os_external_network blank. If you do not provide a value for os_external_network , a router is not created for you, and, without additional action, the installer will fail to retrieve an image from Glance. Later in the installation process, when you create network resources, you must configure external connectivity on your own. If you run the installer with the wait-for command 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. 6.12. 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. 6.13. Creating the installation configuration file You can customize the OpenShift Container Platform cluster you install on Red Hat OpenStack Platform (RHOSP). Prerequisites You have the OpenShift Container Platform installation program and the pull secret for your cluster. 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. 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. You now have the file install-config.yaml in the directory that you specified. Additional resources Installation configuration parameters for OpenStack 6.13.1. Custom subnets in RHOSP deployments Optionally, you can deploy a cluster on a Red Hat OpenStack Platform (RHOSP) subnet of your choice. The subnet's GUID is passed as the value of platform.openstack.machinesSubnet in the install-config.yaml file. This subnet is used as the cluster's primary subnet. By default, nodes and ports are created on it. You can create nodes and ports on a different RHOSP subnet by setting the value of the platform.openstack.machinesSubnet property to the subnet's UUID. Before you run the OpenShift Container Platform installer with a custom subnet, verify that your configuration meets the following requirements: The subnet that is used by platform.openstack.machinesSubnet has DHCP enabled. The CIDR of platform.openstack.machinesSubnet matches the CIDR of networking.machineNetwork . The installation program user has permission to create ports on this network, including ports with fixed IP addresses. Clusters that use custom subnets have the following limitations: If you plan to install a cluster that uses floating IP addresses, the platform.openstack.machinesSubnet subnet must be attached to a router that is connected to the externalNetwork network. If the platform.openstack.machinesSubnet value is set in the install-config.yaml file, the installation program does not create a private network or subnet for your RHOSP machines. You cannot use the platform.openstack.externalDNS property at the same time as a custom subnet. To add DNS to a cluster that uses a custom subnet, configure DNS on the RHOSP network. Note By default, the API VIP takes x.x.x.5 and the Ingress VIP takes x.x.x.7 from your network's CIDR block. To override these default values, set values for platform.openstack.apiVIPs and platform.openstack.ingressVIPs that are outside of the DHCP allocation pool. Important The CIDR ranges for networks are not adjustable after cluster installation. Red Hat does not provide direct guidance on determining the range during cluster installation because it requires careful consideration of the number of created pods per namespace. 6.13.2. Sample customized install-config.yaml file for RHOSP with Kuryr To deploy with Kuryr SDN instead of the default OVN-Kubernetes network plugin, you must modify the install-config.yaml file to include Kuryr as the desired networking.networkType . This sample install-config.yaml demonstrates all of the possible Red Hat OpenStack Platform (RHOSP) customization options. Important This sample file is provided for reference only. You must obtain your install-config.yaml file by using the installation program. apiVersion: v1 baseDomain: example.com controlPlane: name: master platform: {} replicas: 3 compute: - name: worker platform: openstack: type: ml.large replicas: 3 metadata: name: example networking: clusterNetwork: - cidr: 10.128.0.0/14 hostPrefix: 23 machineNetwork: - cidr: 10.0.0.0/16 serviceNetwork: - 172.30.0.0/16 1 networkType: Kuryr 2 platform: openstack: cloud: mycloud externalNetwork: external computeFlavor: m1.xlarge apiFloatingIP: 128.0.0.1 trunkSupport: true 3 octaviaSupport: true 4 pullSecret: '{"auths": ...}' sshKey: ssh-ed25519 AAAA... 1 The Amphora Octavia driver creates two ports per load balancer. As a result, the service subnet that the installer creates is twice the size of the CIDR that is specified as the value of the serviceNetwork property. The larger range is required to prevent IP address conflicts. 2 The cluster network plugin to install. The supported values are Kuryr , OVNKubernetes , and OpenShiftSDN . The default value is OVNKubernetes . 3 4 Both trunkSupport and octaviaSupport are automatically discovered by the installer, so there is no need to set them. But if your environment does not meet both requirements, Kuryr SDN will not properly work. Trunks are needed to connect the pods to the RHOSP network and Octavia is required to create the OpenShift Container Platform services. 6.13.3. Cluster deployment on RHOSP provider networks You can deploy your OpenShift Container Platform clusters on Red Hat OpenStack Platform (RHOSP) with a primary network interface on a provider network. Provider networks are commonly used to give projects direct access to a public network that can be used to reach the internet. You can also share provider networks among projects as part of the network creation process. RHOSP provider networks map directly to an existing physical network in the data center. A RHOSP administrator must create them. In the following example, OpenShift Container Platform workloads are connected to a data center by using a provider network: OpenShift Container Platform clusters that are installed on provider networks do not require tenant networks or floating IP addresses. The installer does not create these resources during installation. Example provider network types include flat (untagged) and VLAN (802.1Q tagged). Note A cluster can support as many provider network connections as the network type allows. For example, VLAN networks typically support up to 4096 connections. You can learn more about provider and tenant networks in the RHOSP documentation . 6.13.3.1. RHOSP provider network requirements for cluster installation Before you install an OpenShift Container Platform cluster, your Red Hat OpenStack Platform (RHOSP) deployment and provider network must meet a number of conditions: The RHOSP networking service (Neutron) is enabled and accessible through the RHOSP networking API. The RHOSP networking service has the port security and allowed address pairs extensions enabled . The provider network can be shared with other tenants. Tip Use the openstack network create command with the --share flag to create a network that can be shared. The RHOSP project that you use to install the cluster must own the provider network, as well as an appropriate subnet. Tip To create a network for a project that is named "openshift," enter the following command USD openstack network create --project openshift To create a subnet for a project that is named "openshift," enter the following command USD openstack subnet create --project openshift To learn more about creating networks on RHOSP, read the provider networks documentation . If the cluster is owned by the admin user, you must run the installer as that user to create ports on the network. Important Provider networks must be owned by the RHOSP project that is used to create the cluster. If they are not, the RHOSP Compute service (Nova) cannot request a port from that network. Verify that the provider network can reach the RHOSP metadata service IP address, which is 169.254.169.254 by default. Depending on your RHOSP SDN and networking service configuration, you might need to provide the route when you create the subnet. For example: USD openstack subnet create --dhcp --host-route destination=169.254.169.254/32,gateway=192.0.2.2 ... Optional: To secure the network, create role-based access control (RBAC) rules that limit network access to a single project. 6.13.3.2. Deploying a cluster that has a primary interface on a provider network You can deploy an OpenShift Container Platform cluster that has its primary network interface on an Red Hat OpenStack Platform (RHOSP) provider network. Prerequisites Your Red Hat OpenStack Platform (RHOSP) deployment is configured as described by "RHOSP provider network requirements for cluster installation". Procedure In a text editor, open the install-config.yaml file. Set the value of the platform.openstack.apiVIPs property to the IP address for the API VIP. Set the value of the platform.openstack.ingressVIPs property to the IP address for the Ingress VIP. Set the value of the platform.openstack.machinesSubnet property to the UUID of the provider network subnet. Set the value of the networking.machineNetwork.cidr property to the CIDR block of the provider network subnet. Important The platform.openstack.apiVIPs and platform.openstack.ingressVIPs properties must both be unassigned IP addresses from the networking.machineNetwork.cidr block. Section of an installation configuration file for a cluster that relies on a RHOSP provider network ... platform: openstack: apiVIPs: 1 - 192.0.2.13 ingressVIPs: 2 - 192.0.2.23 machinesSubnet: fa806b2f-ac49-4bce-b9db-124bc64209bf # ... networking: machineNetwork: - cidr: 192.0.2.0/24 1 2 In OpenShift Container Platform 4.12 and later, the apiVIP and ingressVIP configuration settings are deprecated. Instead, use a list format to enter values in the apiVIPs and ingressVIPs configuration settings. Warning You cannot set the platform.openstack.externalNetwork or platform.openstack.externalDNS parameters while using a provider network for the primary network interface. When you deploy the cluster, the installer uses the install-config.yaml file to deploy the cluster on the provider network. Tip You can add additional networks, including provider networks, to the platform.openstack.additionalNetworkIDs list. After you deploy your cluster, you can attach pods to additional networks. For more information, see Understanding multiple networks . 6.13.4. Kuryr ports pools A Kuryr ports pool maintains a number of ports on standby for pod creation. Keeping ports on standby minimizes pod creation time. Without ports pools, Kuryr must explicitly request port creation or deletion whenever a pod is created or deleted. The Neutron ports that Kuryr uses are created in subnets that are tied to namespaces. These pod ports are also added as subports to the primary port of OpenShift Container Platform cluster nodes. Because Kuryr keeps each namespace in a separate subnet, a separate ports pool is maintained for each namespace-worker pair. Prior to installing a cluster, you can set the following parameters in the cluster-network-03-config.yml manifest file to configure ports pool behavior: The enablePortPoolsPrepopulation parameter controls pool prepopulation, which forces Kuryr to add Neutron ports to the pools when the first pod that is configured to use the dedicated network for pods is created in a namespace. The default value is false . The poolMinPorts parameter is the minimum number of free ports that are kept in the pool. The default value is 1 . The poolMaxPorts parameter is the maximum number of free ports that are kept in the pool. A value of 0 disables that upper bound. This is the default setting. If your OpenStack port quota is low, or you have a limited number of IP addresses on the pod network, consider setting this option to ensure that unneeded ports are deleted. The poolBatchPorts parameter defines the maximum number of Neutron ports that can be created at once. The default value is 3 . 6.13.5. Adjusting Kuryr ports pools during installation During installation, you can configure how Kuryr manages Red Hat OpenStack Platform (RHOSP) Neutron ports to control the speed and efficiency of pod creation. Prerequisites Create and modify the install-config.yaml file. Procedure From a command line, create the manifest files: USD ./openshift-install create manifests --dir <installation_directory> 1 1 For <installation_directory> , specify the name of the directory that contains the install-config.yaml file for your cluster. Create a file that is named cluster-network-03-config.yml in the <installation_directory>/manifests/ directory: USD touch <installation_directory>/manifests/cluster-network-03-config.yml 1 1 For <installation_directory> , specify the directory name that contains the manifests/ directory for your cluster. After creating the file, several network configuration files are in the manifests/ directory, as shown: USD ls <installation_directory>/manifests/cluster-network-* Example output cluster-network-01-crd.yml cluster-network-02-config.yml cluster-network-03-config.yml Open the cluster-network-03-config.yml file in an editor, and enter a custom resource (CR) that describes the Cluster Network Operator configuration that you want: USD oc edit networks.operator.openshift.io cluster Edit the settings to meet your requirements. The following file is provided as an example: apiVersion: operator.openshift.io/v1 kind: Network metadata: name: cluster spec: clusterNetwork: - cidr: 10.128.0.0/14 hostPrefix: 23 serviceNetwork: - 172.30.0.0/16 defaultNetwork: type: Kuryr kuryrConfig: enablePortPoolsPrepopulation: false 1 poolMinPorts: 1 2 poolBatchPorts: 3 3 poolMaxPorts: 5 4 openstackServiceNetwork: 172.30.0.0/15 5 1 Set enablePortPoolsPrepopulation to true to make Kuryr create new Neutron ports when the first pod on the network for pods is created in a namespace. This setting raises the Neutron ports quota but can reduce the time that is required to spawn pods. The default value is false . 2 Kuryr creates new ports for a pool if the number of free ports in that pool is lower than the value of poolMinPorts . The default value is 1 . 3 poolBatchPorts controls the number of new ports that are created if the number of free ports is lower than the value of poolMinPorts . The default value is 3 . 4 If the number of free ports in a pool is higher than the value of poolMaxPorts , Kuryr deletes them until the number matches that value. Setting this value to 0 disables this upper bound, preventing pools from shrinking. The default value is 0 . 5 The openStackServiceNetwork parameter defines the CIDR range of the network from which IP addresses are allocated to RHOSP Octavia's LoadBalancers. If this parameter is used with the Amphora driver, Octavia takes two IP addresses from this network for each load balancer: one for OpenShift and the other for VRRP connections. Because these IP addresses are managed by OpenShift Container Platform and Neutron respectively, they must come from different pools. Therefore, the value of openStackServiceNetwork must be at least twice the size of the value of serviceNetwork , and the value of serviceNetwork must overlap entirely with the range that is defined by openStackServiceNetwork . The CNO verifies that VRRP IP addresses that are taken from the range that is defined by this parameter do not overlap with the range that is defined by the serviceNetwork parameter. If this parameter is not set, the CNO uses an expanded value of serviceNetwork that is determined by decrementing the prefix size by 1. Save the cluster-network-03-config.yml file, and exit the text editor. Optional: Back up the manifests/cluster-network-03-config.yml file. The installation program deletes the manifests/ directory while creating the cluster. 6.13.6. Setting a custom subnet for machines The IP range that the installation program uses by default might not match the Neutron subnet that you create when you install OpenShift Container Platform. If necessary, update the CIDR value for new machines by editing the installation configuration file. Prerequisites You have the install-config.yaml file that was generated by the OpenShift Container Platform installation program. Procedure On a command line, browse to the directory that contains install-config.yaml . From that directory, either run a script to edit the install-config.yaml file or update the file manually: To set the value by using a script, run: USD python -c ' import yaml; path = "install-config.yaml"; data = yaml.safe_load(open(path)); data["networking"]["machineNetwork"] = [{"cidr": "192.168.0.0/18"}]; 1 open(path, "w").write(yaml.dump(data, default_flow_style=False))' 1 Insert a value that matches your intended Neutron subnet, e.g. 192.0.2.0/24 . To set the value manually, open the file and set the value of networking.machineCIDR to something that matches your intended Neutron subnet. 6.13.7. Emptying compute machine pools To proceed with an installation that uses your own infrastructure, set the number of compute machines in the installation configuration file to zero. Later, you create these machines manually. Prerequisites You have the install-config.yaml file that was generated by the OpenShift Container Platform installation program. Procedure On a command line, browse to the directory that contains install-config.yaml . From that directory, either run a script to edit the install-config.yaml file or update the file manually: To set the value by using a script, run: USD python -c ' import yaml; path = "install-config.yaml"; data = yaml.safe_load(open(path)); data["compute"][0]["replicas"] = 0; open(path, "w").write(yaml.dump(data, default_flow_style=False))' To set the value manually, open the file and set the value of compute.<first entry>.replicas to 0 . 6.13.8. Modifying the network type By default, the installation program selects the OpenShiftSDN network type. To use Kuryr instead, change the value in the installation configuration file that the program generated. Prerequisites You have the file install-config.yaml that was generated by the OpenShift Container Platform installation program Procedure In a command prompt, browse to the directory that contains install-config.yaml . From that directory, either run a script to edit the install-config.yaml file or update the file manually: To set the value by using a script, run: USD python -c ' import yaml; path = "install-config.yaml"; data = yaml.safe_load(open(path)); data["networking"]["networkType"] = "Kuryr"; open(path, "w").write(yaml.dump(data, default_flow_style=False))' To set the value manually, open the file and set networking.networkType to "Kuryr" . 6.14. Creating the Kubernetes manifest and Ignition config files Because you must modify some cluster definition files and manually start the cluster machines, you must generate the Kubernetes manifest and Ignition config files that the cluster needs to configure the machines. The installation configuration file transforms into the Kubernetes manifests. The manifests wrap into the Ignition configuration files, which are later used to configure the cluster machines. Important The Ignition config files that the OpenShift Container Platform 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. Prerequisites You obtained the OpenShift Container Platform installation program. You created the install-config.yaml installation configuration file. Procedure Change to the directory that contains the OpenShift Container Platform installation program and generate the Kubernetes manifests for the cluster: USD ./openshift-install create manifests --dir <installation_directory> 1 1 For <installation_directory> , specify the installation directory that contains the install-config.yaml file you created. Remove the Kubernetes manifest files that define the control plane machines, compute machine sets, and control plane machine sets: USD rm -f openshift/99_openshift-cluster-api_master-machines-*.yaml openshift/99_openshift-cluster-api_worker-machineset-*.yaml openshift/99_openshift-machine-api_master-control-plane-machine-set.yaml Because you create and manage these resources yourself, you do not have to initialize them. You can preserve the compute machine set files to create compute machines by using the machine API, but you must update references to them to match your environment. Check that the mastersSchedulable parameter in the <installation_directory>/manifests/cluster-scheduler-02-config.yml Kubernetes manifest file is set to false . This setting prevents pods from being scheduled on the control plane machines: Open the <installation_directory>/manifests/cluster-scheduler-02-config.yml file. Locate the mastersSchedulable parameter and ensure that it is set to false . Save and exit the file. To create the Ignition configuration files, run the following command from the directory that contains the installation program: USD ./openshift-install create ignition-configs --dir <installation_directory> 1 1 For <installation_directory> , specify the same installation directory. Ignition config files are created for the bootstrap, control plane, and compute nodes in the installation directory. The kubeadmin-password and kubeconfig files are created in the ./<installation_directory>/auth directory: Export the metadata file's infraID key as an environment variable: USD export INFRA_ID=USD(jq -r .infraID metadata.json) Tip Extract the infraID key from metadata.json and use it as a prefix for all of the RHOSP resources that you create. By doing so, you avoid name conflicts when making multiple deployments in the same project. 6.15. Preparing the bootstrap Ignition files The OpenShift Container Platform installation process relies on bootstrap machines that are created from a bootstrap Ignition configuration file. Edit the file and upload it. Then, create a secondary bootstrap Ignition configuration file that Red Hat OpenStack Platform (RHOSP) uses to download the primary file. Prerequisites You have the bootstrap Ignition file that the installer program generates, bootstrap.ign . The infrastructure ID from the installer's metadata file is set as an environment variable ( USDINFRA_ID ). If the variable is not set, see Creating the Kubernetes manifest and Ignition config files . You have an HTTP(S)-accessible way to store the bootstrap Ignition file. The documented procedure uses the RHOSP image service (Glance), but you can also use the RHOSP storage service (Swift), Amazon S3, an internal HTTP server, or an ad hoc Nova server. Procedure Run the following Python script. The script modifies the bootstrap Ignition file to set the hostname and, if available, CA certificate file when it runs: import base64 import json import os with open('bootstrap.ign', 'r') as f: ignition = json.load(f) files = ignition['storage'].get('files', []) infra_id = os.environ.get('INFRA_ID', 'openshift').encode() hostname_b64 = base64.standard_b64encode(infra_id + b'-bootstrap\n').decode().strip() files.append( { 'path': '/etc/hostname', 'mode': 420, 'contents': { 'source': 'data:text/plain;charset=utf-8;base64,' + hostname_b64 } }) ca_cert_path = os.environ.get('OS_CACERT', '') if ca_cert_path: with open(ca_cert_path, 'r') as f: ca_cert = f.read().encode() ca_cert_b64 = base64.standard_b64encode(ca_cert).decode().strip() files.append( { 'path': '/opt/openshift/tls/cloud-ca-cert.pem', 'mode': 420, 'contents': { 'source': 'data:text/plain;charset=utf-8;base64,' + ca_cert_b64 } }) ignition['storage']['files'] = files; with open('bootstrap.ign', 'w') as f: json.dump(ignition, f) Using the RHOSP CLI, create an image that uses the bootstrap Ignition file: USD openstack image create --disk-format=raw --container-format=bare --file bootstrap.ign <image_name> Get the image's details: USD openstack image show <image_name> Make a note of the file value; it follows the pattern v2/images/<image_ID>/file . Note Verify that the image you created is active. Retrieve the image service's public address: USD openstack catalog show image Combine the public address with the image file value and save the result as the storage location. The location follows the pattern <image_service_public_URL>/v2/images/<image_ID>/file . Generate an auth token and save the token ID: USD openstack token issue -c id -f value Insert the following content into a file called USDINFRA_ID-bootstrap-ignition.json and edit the placeholders to match your own values: { "ignition": { "config": { "merge": [{ "source": "<storage_url>", 1 "httpHeaders": [{ "name": "X-Auth-Token", 2 "value": "<token_ID>" 3 }] }] }, "security": { "tls": { "certificateAuthorities": [{ "source": "data:text/plain;charset=utf-8;base64,<base64_encoded_certificate>" 4 }] } }, "version": "3.2.0" } } 1 Replace the value of ignition.config.merge.source with the bootstrap Ignition file storage URL. 2 Set name in httpHeaders to "X-Auth-Token" . 3 Set value in httpHeaders to your token's ID. 4 If the bootstrap Ignition file server uses a self-signed certificate, include the base64-encoded certificate. Save the secondary Ignition config file. The bootstrap Ignition data will be passed to RHOSP during installation. Warning The bootstrap Ignition file contains sensitive information, like clouds.yaml credentials. Ensure that you store it in a secure place, and delete it after you complete the installation process. 6.16. Creating control plane Ignition config files on RHOSP Installing OpenShift Container Platform on Red Hat OpenStack Platform (RHOSP) on your own infrastructure requires control plane Ignition config files. You must create multiple config files. Note As with the bootstrap Ignition configuration, you must explicitly define a hostname for each control plane machine. Prerequisites The infrastructure ID from the installation program's metadata file is set as an environment variable ( USDINFRA_ID ). If the variable is not set, see "Creating the Kubernetes manifest and Ignition config files". Procedure On a command line, run the following Python script: USD for index in USD(seq 0 2); do MASTER_HOSTNAME="USDINFRA_ID-master-USDindex\n" python -c "import base64, json, sys; ignition = json.load(sys.stdin); storage = ignition.get('storage', {}); files = storage.get('files', []); files.append({'path': '/etc/hostname', 'mode': 420, 'contents': {'source': 'data:text/plain;charset=utf-8;base64,' + base64.standard_b64encode(b'USDMASTER_HOSTNAME').decode().strip(), 'verification': {}}, 'filesystem': 'root'}); storage['files'] = files; ignition['storage'] = storage json.dump(ignition, sys.stdout)" <master.ign >"USDINFRA_ID-master-USDindex-ignition.json" done You now have three control plane Ignition files: <INFRA_ID>-master-0-ignition.json , <INFRA_ID>-master-1-ignition.json , and <INFRA_ID>-master-2-ignition.json . 6.17. Creating network resources on RHOSP Create the network resources that an OpenShift Container Platform on Red Hat OpenStack Platform (RHOSP) installation on your own infrastructure requires. To save time, run supplied Ansible playbooks that generate security groups, networks, subnets, routers, and ports. Prerequisites Python 3 is installed on your machine. You downloaded the modules in "Downloading playbook dependencies". You downloaded the playbooks in "Downloading the installation playbooks". Procedure Optional: Add an external network value to the inventory.yaml playbook: Example external network value in the inventory.yaml Ansible playbook ... # The public network providing connectivity to the cluster. If not # provided, the cluster external connectivity must be provided in another # way. # Required for os_api_fip, os_ingress_fip, os_bootstrap_fip. os_external_network: 'external' ... Important If you did not provide a value for os_external_network in the inventory.yaml file, you must ensure that VMs can access Glance and an external connection yourself. Optional: Add external network and floating IP (FIP) address values to the inventory.yaml playbook: Example FIP values in the inventory.yaml Ansible playbook ... # OpenShift API floating IP address. If this value is non-empty, the # corresponding floating IP will be attached to the Control Plane to # serve the OpenShift API. os_api_fip: '203.0.113.23' # OpenShift Ingress floating IP address. If this value is non-empty, the # corresponding floating IP will be attached to the worker nodes to serve # the applications. os_ingress_fip: '203.0.113.19' # If this value is non-empty, the corresponding floating IP will be # attached to the bootstrap machine. This is needed for collecting logs # in case of install failure. os_bootstrap_fip: '203.0.113.20' Important If you do not define values for os_api_fip and os_ingress_fip , you must perform postinstallation network configuration. If you do not define a value for os_bootstrap_fip , the installer cannot download debugging information from failed installations. See "Enabling access to the environment" for more information. On a command line, create security groups by running the security-groups.yaml playbook: USD ansible-playbook -i inventory.yaml security-groups.yaml On a command line, create a network, subnet, and router by running the network.yaml playbook: USD ansible-playbook -i inventory.yaml network.yaml Optional: If you want to control the default resolvers that Nova servers use, run the RHOSP CLI command: USD openstack subnet set --dns-nameserver <server_1> --dns-nameserver <server_2> "USDINFRA_ID-nodes" 6.18. Creating the bootstrap machine on RHOSP Create a bootstrap machine and give it the network access it needs to run on Red Hat OpenStack Platform (RHOSP). Red Hat provides an Ansible playbook that you run to simplify this process. Prerequisites You downloaded the modules in "Downloading playbook dependencies". You downloaded the playbooks in "Downloading the installation playbooks". The inventory.yaml , common.yaml , and bootstrap.yaml Ansible playbooks are in a common directory. The metadata.json file that the installation program created is in the same directory as the Ansible playbooks. Procedure On a command line, change the working directory to the location of the playbooks. On a command line, run the bootstrap.yaml playbook: USD ansible-playbook -i inventory.yaml bootstrap.yaml After the bootstrap server is active, view the logs to verify that the Ignition files were received: USD openstack console log show "USDINFRA_ID-bootstrap" 6.19. Creating the control plane machines on RHOSP Create three control plane machines by using the Ignition config files that you generated. Red Hat provides an Ansible playbook that you run to simplify this process. Prerequisites You downloaded the modules in "Downloading playbook dependencies". You downloaded the playbooks in "Downloading the installation playbooks". The infrastructure ID from the installation program's metadata file is set as an environment variable ( USDINFRA_ID ). The inventory.yaml , common.yaml , and control-plane.yaml Ansible playbooks are in a common directory. You have the three Ignition files that were created in "Creating control plane Ignition config files". Procedure On a command line, change the working directory to the location of the playbooks. If the control plane Ignition config files aren't already in your working directory, copy them into it. On a command line, run the control-plane.yaml playbook: USD ansible-playbook -i inventory.yaml control-plane.yaml Run the following command to monitor the bootstrapping process: USD openshift-install wait-for bootstrap-complete You will see messages that confirm that the control plane machines are running and have joined the cluster: INFO API v1.27.3 up INFO Waiting up to 30m0s for bootstrapping to complete... ... INFO It is now safe to remove the bootstrap resources 6.20. 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 6.21. Deleting bootstrap resources from RHOSP Delete the bootstrap resources that you no longer need. Prerequisites You downloaded the modules in "Downloading playbook dependencies". You downloaded the playbooks in "Downloading the installation playbooks". The inventory.yaml , common.yaml , and down-bootstrap.yaml Ansible playbooks are in a common directory. The control plane machines are running. If you do not know the status of the machines, see "Verifying cluster status". Procedure On a command line, change the working directory to the location of the playbooks. On a command line, run the down-bootstrap.yaml playbook: USD ansible-playbook -i inventory.yaml down-bootstrap.yaml The bootstrap port, server, and floating IP address are deleted. Warning If you did not disable the bootstrap Ignition file URL earlier, do so now. 6.22. Creating compute machines on RHOSP After standing up the control plane, create compute machines. Red Hat provides an Ansible playbook that you run to simplify this process. Prerequisites You downloaded the modules in "Downloading playbook dependencies". You downloaded the playbooks in "Downloading the installation playbooks". The inventory.yaml , common.yaml , and compute-nodes.yaml Ansible playbooks are in a common directory. The metadata.json file that the installation program created is in the same directory as the Ansible playbooks. The control plane is active. Procedure On a command line, change the working directory to the location of the playbooks. On a command line, run the playbook: USD ansible-playbook -i inventory.yaml compute-nodes.yaml steps Approve the certificate signing requests for the machines. 6.23. Approving the certificate signing requests for your machines When you add machines to a cluster, two pending certificate signing requests (CSRs) are generated for each machine that you added. You must confirm that these CSRs are approved or, if necessary, approve them yourself. The client requests must be approved first, followed by the server requests. Prerequisites You added machines to your cluster. Procedure Confirm that the cluster recognizes the machines: USD oc get nodes Example output NAME STATUS ROLES AGE VERSION master-0 Ready master 63m v1.27.3 master-1 Ready master 63m v1.27.3 master-2 Ready master 64m v1.27.3 The output lists all of the machines that you created. Note The preceding output might not include the compute nodes, also known as worker nodes, until some CSRs are approved. Review the pending CSRs and ensure that you see the client requests with the Pending or Approved status for each machine that you added to the cluster: USD oc get csr Example output NAME AGE REQUESTOR CONDITION csr-8b2br 15m system:serviceaccount:openshift-machine-config-operator:node-bootstrapper Pending csr-8vnps 15m system:serviceaccount:openshift-machine-config-operator:node-bootstrapper Pending ... In this example, two machines are joining the cluster. You might see more approved CSRs in the list. If the CSRs were not approved, after all of the pending CSRs for the machines you added are in Pending status, approve the CSRs for your cluster machines: Note Because the CSRs rotate automatically, approve your CSRs within an hour of adding the machines to the cluster. If you do not approve them within an hour, the certificates will rotate, and more than two certificates will be present for each node. You must approve all of these certificates. After the client CSR is approved, the Kubelet creates a secondary CSR for the serving certificate, which requires manual approval. Then, subsequent serving certificate renewal requests are automatically approved by the machine-approver if the Kubelet requests a new certificate with identical parameters. Note For clusters running on platforms that are not machine API enabled, such as bare metal and other user-provisioned infrastructure, you must implement a method of automatically approving the kubelet serving certificate requests (CSRs). If a request is not approved, then the oc exec , oc rsh , and oc logs commands cannot succeed, because a serving certificate is required when the API server connects to the kubelet. Any operation that contacts the Kubelet endpoint requires this certificate approval to be in place. The method must watch for new CSRs, confirm that the CSR was submitted by the node-bootstrapper service account in the system:node or system:admin groups, and confirm the identity of the node. To approve them individually, run the following command for each valid CSR: USD oc adm certificate approve <csr_name> 1 1 <csr_name> is the name of a CSR from the list of current CSRs. To approve all pending CSRs, run the following command: USD oc get csr -o go-template='{{range .items}}{{if not .status}}{{.metadata.name}}{{"\n"}}{{end}}{{end}}' | xargs --no-run-if-empty oc adm certificate approve Note Some Operators might not become available until some CSRs are approved. Now that your client requests are approved, you must review the server requests for each machine that you added to the cluster: USD oc get csr Example output NAME AGE REQUESTOR CONDITION csr-bfd72 5m26s system:node:ip-10-0-50-126.us-east-2.compute.internal Pending csr-c57lv 5m26s system:node:ip-10-0-95-157.us-east-2.compute.internal Pending ... If the remaining CSRs are not approved, and are in the Pending status, approve the CSRs for your cluster machines: To approve them individually, run the following command for each valid CSR: USD oc adm certificate approve <csr_name> 1 1 <csr_name> is the name of a CSR from the list of current CSRs. To approve all pending CSRs, run the following command: USD oc get csr -o go-template='{{range .items}}{{if not .status}}{{.metadata.name}}{{"\n"}}{{end}}{{end}}' | xargs oc adm certificate approve After all client and server CSRs have been approved, the machines have the Ready status. Verify this by running the following command: USD oc get nodes Example output NAME STATUS ROLES AGE VERSION master-0 Ready master 73m v1.27.3 master-1 Ready master 73m v1.27.3 master-2 Ready master 74m v1.27.3 worker-0 Ready worker 11m v1.27.3 worker-1 Ready worker 11m v1.27.3 Note It can take a few minutes after approval of the server CSRs for the machines to transition to the Ready status. Additional information For more information on CSRs, see Certificate Signing Requests . 6.24. Verifying a successful installation Verify that the OpenShift Container Platform installation is complete. Prerequisites You have the installation program ( openshift-install ) Procedure On a command line, enter: USD openshift-install --log-level debug wait-for install-complete The program outputs the console URL, as well as the administrator's login information. 6.25. 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 6.26. steps Customize your cluster . If necessary, you can opt out of remote health reporting . If you need to enable external access to node ports, configure ingress cluster traffic by using a node port . If you did not configure RHOSP to accept application traffic over floating IP addresses, configure RHOSP access with floating IP addresses .
