Cluster Deployment Automation

Automate deployment of OpenShift clusters in different configurations. The main functionality is showcased below. The distribution specific steps assume a RHEL/Fedora based distribution is used. Also, the instructions below make the assumption that everything is run as root from the repository root directory. Keep in mind that the deployment process will require your pull secret (by default this should be stored at {cwd}/pull_secret.json). This can be obtained from Red Hat OpenShift.

Install Software and Python Packages, Start a Python Virtual Environment and Setup

NOTE: Requires Python3.11 or higher

dnf install -y python3.11
python3.11 -m venv ocp-venv
source ocp-venv/bin/activate
./dependencies.sh
usermod -a -G root qemu

# Ensure having a suitable SSH key
[ -f ~/.ssh/id_ed25519 ] || ssh-keygen -t ed25519 -N '' -f ~/.ssh/id_ed25519

Activate and deactivate Python virtual environment

source ocp-venv/bin/activate
...
deactivate

Generate a baremetal worker cluster configuration file (1)

NOTE: Replace ... with your specific information.

cat > cluster.yaml << EOF
clusters:
  - name : "mycluster"
    api_vip: "192.168.122.99"
    ingress_vip: "192.168.122.101"
    masters:
    - name: "mycluster-master-1"
      kind: "vm"
      node: "localhost"
      ip: "192.168.122.41"

      node: "localhost"
      ip: "192.168.122.43"
    workers:

      node: "..."
      bmc_user: "root"
      bmc_password: "..."
      bmc: "hostname or ip"
EOF

Generate a vm worker cluster configuration file (2)

cat > cluster.yaml << EOF
clusters:
  - name : "vm"
    api_vip: "192.168.122.99"
    ingress_vip: "192.168.122.101"

      node: "localhost"
      ip: "192.168.122.145"
      bmc: "hostname or ip"

Generate a cluster configuration file that uses OVN rebuilt from source (3)

cat > cluster.yaml << EOF
clusters:
  - name : "vm"
    api_vip: "192.168.122.99"
    ingress_vip: "192.168.122.101"
    kubeconfig: "/root/kubeconfig.vm"
    masters:
    - name: "vm-master-1"
      kind: "vm"

    workers:
    - name: "vm-worker-1"

      node: "localhost"
      ip: "192.168.122.144"

      bmc: "hostname or ip"
    postconfig:
    - name: "ovn_custom"   # Rebuilds OVN from upstream ovn-org/ovn code.
    - name: "ovnk8s"       # Rolls out the ovn-k daemonset using the new image.
      image: "localhost/ovnk-custom-image:dev"
EOF

Generate a vm Single Node OpenShift (SNO) cluster configuration file (4)

cat > cluster.yaml << EOF
clusters:
  - name : "vm-sno"
    api_vip: "192.168.122.99"
    ingress_vip: "192.168.122.101"
    masters:
    - name: "sno-master"
      kind: "vm"
      node: "localhost"
      ip: "192.168.122.41"
EOF

Start the installation

source ocp-venv/bin/activate
python cda.py cluster.yaml deploy
deactivate

Install the latest 4.x openshift-client (optional)

The scripts don't rely on the OpenShift Client (oc) being installed locally. For a better user experience it might still be a good idea to install the latest 4.x version:

pushd /tmp/
wget https://mirror.openshift.com/pub/openshift-v4/clients/ocp/latest/openshift-client-linux.tar.gz
tar xf openshift-client-linux.tar.gz oc
rm openshift-client-linux.tar.gz
mv oc /usr/bin/oc
popd

Set the kubeconfig after a successful installation

NOTE: By default, The kubeconfig file is generated in the current working directory unless specified and follows the convention kubeconfig.<cluster-name>:

export KUBECONFIG=/root/kubeconfig.vm

We can now access the cluster, e.g.:

# oc get nodes
NAME          STATUS   ROLES                         AGE    VERSION
vm-master-1   Ready    control-plane,master,worker   4d1h   v1.25.4+77bec7a
vm-master-2   Ready    control-plane,master,worker   4d1h   v1.25.4+77bec7a
vm-master-3   Ready    control-plane,master,worker   4d1h   v1.25.4+77bec7a
vm-worker-1   Ready    worker                        4d1h   v1.25.4+77bec7a
vm-worker-2   Ready    worker                        4d1h   v1.25.4+77bec7a
