This most likely + will not need editing but if further customization is required these parameters + can be updated. + +#### Step 1 + +Once the vars.yml file has been updated with the correct settings for the desired AWS account then we are ready to build an AMI. + +``` +$ ansible-playbook build_ami.yml +``` + +1. This script will build a VPC. Default name will be clusterid if not specified. +2. Create an ssh key required for the instance. +3. Create an instance. +4. Run some setup roles to ensure packages and services are correctly configured. +5. Create the AMI. +6. If encryption is desired + - A KMS key is created with the name of $clusterid + - An encrypted AMI will be produced with $clusterid KMS key +7. Terminate the instance used to configure the AMI. + +#### Step 2 + +Now that we have created an AMI for our Openshift installation, that AMI id needs to be placed in the `vars.yml` file. To do so update the following fields (The AMI can be captured from the output of the previous step or found in the ec2 console under AMIs): + +``` + # when creating an encrypted AMI please specify use_encryption + use_encryption: False # defaults to false +``` + +**Note**: If using encryption, specify with `use_encryption: True`. This will ensure to take the recently created AMI and encrypt it to be used later. If encryption is not desired then set the value to false. The AMI id will be fetched and used according to its most recent creation date. + +#### Step 3 + +Create an openshift-ansible inventory file to use for a byo installation. The exception here is that there will be no hosts specified by the inventory file. Here is an example: + +```ini +[OSEv3:children] +masters +nodes +etcd + +[OSEv3:children] +masters +nodes +etcd + +[OSEv3:vars] +# cluster specific settings maybe be placed here +openshift_hosted_router_wait=False +openshift_hosted_registry_wait=False + +[masters] + +[etcd] + +[nodes] +``` + +There are more examples of cluster inventory settings [`here`](../../inventory/byo/). + +#### Step 4 + +We are ready to create the master instances and install Openshift. + +``` +$ ansible-playbook -i <inventory from step 3> provision.yml +``` + +This playbook runs through the following steps: +1. Ensures a VPC is created +2. Ensures a SSH key exists +3. Creates an s3 bucket for the registry named $clusterid +4. Create master security groups +5. Create a master launch config +6. Create the master auto scaling groups +7. If certificates are desired for ELB, they will be uploaded +8. Create internal and external master ELBs +9. Add newly created masters to the correct groups +10. Set a couple of important facts for the masters +11. Run the [`byo`](../../common/openshift-cluster/config.yml) + +At this point we have created a successful cluster with only the master nodes. + + +#### Step 5 + +Now that we have a cluster deployed it might be more interesting to create some node types. This can be done easily with the following playbook: + +``` +$ ansible-playbook provision_nodes.yml +``` + +Once this playbook completes, it should create the compute and infra node scale groups. These nodes will attempt to register themselves to the cluster. These requests must be approved by an administrator. + +#### Step 6 + +The registration of our nodes can be automated by running the following script `accept.yml`. This script can handle the registration in a few different ways. +- approve_all - **Note**: this option is for development and test environments. Security is bypassed +- nodes - A list of node names that will be accepted into the cluster + +```yaml + oc_adm_csr: + #approve_all: True + nodes: < list of nodes here > + timeout: 0 +``` +Once the desired accept method is chosen, run the following playbook `accept.yml`: +1. Run the following playbook. +``` +$ ansible-playbook accept.yml +``` + +Login to a master and run the following command: +``` +ssh root@<master ip address> +$ oc --config=/etc/origin/master/admin.kubeconfig get csr +node-bootstrapper-client-ip-172-31-49-148-ec2-internal 1h system:serviceaccount:openshift-infra:node-bootstrapper Approved,Issued +node-bootstrapper-server-ip-172-31-49-148-ec2-internal 1h system:node:ip-172-31-49-148.ec2.internal Approved,Issued +``` + +Verify the `CONDITION` is `Approved,Issued` on the `csr` objects. There are two for each node required. +1. `node-bootstrapper-client` is a request to access the api/controllers. +2. `node-bootstrapper-server` is a request to join the cluster. + +Once this is complete, verify the nodes have joined the cluster and are `ready`. + +``` +$ oc --config=/etc/origin/master/admin.kubeconfig get nodes +NAME STATUS AGE VERSION +ip-172-31-49-148.ec2.internal Ready 1h v1.6.1+5115d708d7 +``` + +### Ready To Work! + +At this point your cluster should be ready for workloads. Proceed to deploy applications on your cluster. + +### Still to compute + +There are more enhancements that are arriving for provisioning. These will include more playbooks that enhance the provisioning capabilities. |
