Deployment code for Openshift 4.

ironicbadger/ocp4

This repo contains code to deploy Openshift 4 for my homelab. It focuses on UPI with vSphere 6.7u3.

Oct 20th 2020 - The code here is working against 4.6. This version of OCP uses Ignition v3 so is incompatible with prior releases of RHCOS.

Usage

Code for each OCP release lives on a numbered branch. The master branch represents the latest stable iteration and will likely be behind branches. In otherwords, check the number branches first before looking at master.

• This repo requires Terraform 0.13
• Install oc tools with ./install-oc-tools.sh --latest 4.6
• This code use yamldecode - details here https://blog.ktz.me/store-terraform-secrets-in-yaml-files-with-yamldecode/

0. Create ~/.config/ocp/vsphere.yaml for yamldecode use, sample content:

alex@mooncake ~ % cat .config/ocp/vsphere.yaml
vsphere-user: [e-mail]
vsphere-password: "123!"
vsphere-server: 192.168.1.240
vsphere-dc: ktzdc
vsphere-cluster: ktzcluster

1. Configure DNS - https://blog.ktz.me/configure-unbound-dns-for-openshift-4/
2. Create install-config.yaml

apiVersion: v1
baseDomain: ktz.lan
compute:
- hyperthreading: Enabled
  name: worker
  replicas: 0
controlPlane:
  hyperthreading: Enabled
  name: master
  replicas: 3
metadata:
  name: ocp4
platform:
  vsphere:
    vcenter: 192.168.1.240
    username: [e-mail]
    password: supersecretpassword
    datacenter: ktzdc
    defaultDatastore: nvme
fips: false 
pullSecret: 'YOUR_PULL_SECRET'
sshKey: 'YOUR_SSH_PUBKEY'

3. Customize clusters/4.6-staticIPs/terraform.tfvars, clusters/4.6-staticIPs/main.tf, and clusters/4.6-staticIPs/variables.tf with the relevant information. This repo assume you are doing mac address based DHCP reservations.

4. Run make tfinit to initialise Terraform modules

5. Run make create to create the VMs and generate/install ignition configs

6. Monitor install progress with make wait-for-bootstrap

7. Check and approve pending CSRs with make get-csr and make approve-csr

8. Run make bootstrap-complete to destroy the bootstrap VM

9. Run make wait-for-install and wait for the cluster install to complete

10. Enjoy!
