UPI Installation Steps

The document outlines the setup and configuration process for an OpenShift cluster, including DNS and HAProxy installation, machine configurations, and ignition file management. It provides detailed steps for creating and managing cluster nodes, as well as troubleshooting commands for monitoring the installation process. Key components include a bootstrap node, master nodes, and worker nodes, along with specific IP addresses and domain names for each machine.

#########################
Stage # 3:
After creating install-config file
## create a dir

mkdir ocp/config
cp install-conifg.yaml config/
# Setup manifests dir
openshift-install create manifests --dir config
## Remove some files in Config dir & Setup a parameter value to false in
manifests/cluster-scheduler-02-config.yml
cd config
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
sed -i 's/true/false/g' manifests/cluster-scheduler-02-config.yml
## Now create some ignition files from OCP dir
cd ..
openshift-install create ignition-configs --dir config

################ Prerequisites
########## You have obtained the Ignition config files for your cluster.
########## You have access to an HTTP server that you can access from your computer
and that the machines that you create can access.
## Procedure ( Imp. Note: we are creating base64 because of big files size of
ignition file so we install & config HTTPD on machine. (if we are using HAPROXY
machine we need to change HTTPD port to 8080) )
### Upload the bootstrap Ignition config file, which is named
<installation_directory>/bootstrap.ign, that the installation program created to
your HTTP server. Note the URL of this file.

### Save the following secondary Ignition config file for your bootstrap node to
your computer as <installation_directory>/merge-bootstrap.ign:
cd config/
vi merge-bootstrap.ign

{
"ignition": {
"config": {
"merge": [
{
"source": "http://192.168.0.254:8080/ocp4/bootstrap.ign",
"verification": {}
}
]
},
"timeouts": {},
"version": "3.2.0"
},
"networkd": {},
"passwd": {},
"storage": {},
"systemd": {}
}

### Now Locate & create the following Ignition config files that the installation
program created:

base64 -w0 master.ign > master.64


base64 -w0 worker.ign > worker.64
base64 -w0 bootstrap-merge.ign > bootstrap-merge.64

Stage #4
VMWARE Vcenter Machines
Upload COREOS binries to DataStore
Now clone from COREOS template to bootstrap
Change below parameters:

guestinfo.afterburn.initrd.network-kargs
ip=192.168.0.240::192.168.0.1:255.255.255.0:::none nameserver=192.168.0.254
guestinfo.ignition.config.data Locate the base-64 encoded files
that you created previously (cat config/merge-bootstrap.64)
guestinfo.ignition.config.data.encoding base64
disk.EnableUUID TRUE

Now wait for the Cloning and clone Master1 using New cloned bootstarp machine.

Now Clone from COREOS template to Master2 , Master3, Worker1, Worker2 using
Master1 cloned VM and just change *.64 bit file based on machine(worker )
####### Now you can start bootstrap machine & after bootup bootstrap , strat master

ip=192.168.0.240::192.168.0.1:255.255.255.0:::none nameserver=192.168.0.254

Troubleshooting Commands:

openshift-install --dir config wait-for bootstrap-complete --log-level=debug ##


run on bastion nodes

journalctl -b -f -u release-image.service -u bootkube.service ### run inside


bootstrap using "ssh core@bootstrap"

After bootstar process completed.


### Once bootstrap sever process completed which we can see "openshift-install --
dir config wait-for bootstrap-complete --log-level=debug"
### After that we need to start Worker nodes, we need to do few below steps so we
can see worker nodes and all Operators will be true
### Imp. Note: we need to comment out bootstrap entries in haproxy configuration
files & restart service

oc get co
oc get csr
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

oc edit configs.imageregistry.operator.openshift.io
# in spec > Management State > Removed/Managed

oc patch configs.imageregistry.operator.openshift.io cluster --type merge --patch


'{"spec":{"storage":{"emptyDir":{}}}}'

then you need to wait for 30 minutes all operators will become in true state.
or
you can go to namspaces individually and delete the ralevent pods there.
