Creating the cluster

To create the {product-title} cluster, you wait for the bootstrap process to complete on the machines that you provisioned by using the Ignition config files that you generated with the installation program.

Prerequisites

  • Create the required infrastructure for the cluster.

  • You obtained the installation program and generated the Ignition config files for your cluster.

  • You used the Ignition config files to create {op-system} machines for your cluster.

  • Your machines have direct internet access.

Procedure

  1. Monitor the bootstrap process:

    $ ./openshift-install --dir=<installation_directory> wait-for bootstrap-complete \ (1)
    --log-level=info (2)

INFO Waiting up to 30m0s for the Kubernetes API at https://api.test.example.com:6443...
INFO API v1.14.6+c4799753c up
INFO Waiting up to 30m0s for the bootstrap-complete event...

    1. For <installation_directory>, specify the path to the directory that you stored the installation files in.

    2. To view different installation details, specify warn, debug, or error instead of info.

      The command succeeds when the Kubernetes API server signals that it has been bootstrapped on the control plane machines.

  2. After bootstrap process is complete, remove the bootstrap machine from the load balancer.

    Important

    You must remove the bootstrap machine from the load balancer at this point. You can also remove or reformat the machine itself.
