In OpenShift Container Platform version 4.4, you can install a cluster on Amazon Web Services (AWS) that uses infrastructure that you provide.
One way to create this infrastructure is to use the provided CloudFormation templates. You can modify the templates to customize your infrastructure or use the information that they contain to create AWS objects according to your company’s policies.
Review details about the OpenShift Container Platform installation and update processes.
Configure an AWS account to host the cluster.
If you have an AWS profile stored on your computer, it must not use a temporary session token that you generated while using a multi-factor authentication device. The cluster continues to use your current AWS credentials to create AWS resources for the entire life of the cluster, so you must use key-based, long-lived credentials. To generate appropriate keys, see Managing Access Keys for IAM Users in the AWS documentation. You can supply the keys when you run the installation program. |
Download the AWS CLI and install it on your computer. See Install the AWS CLI Using the Bundled Installer (Linux, macOS, or Unix) in the AWS documentation.
If you use a firewall, you must configure it to allow the sites that your cluster requires access to.
Be sure to also review this site list if you are configuring a proxy. |
If you do not allow the system to manage identity and access management (IAM), then a cluster administrator can manually create and maintain IAM credentials. Manual mode can also be used in environments where the cloud IAM APIs are not reachable.
In OpenShift Container Platform 4.4, you require access to the Internet to install your cluster. The Telemetry service, which runs by default to provide metrics about cluster health and the success of updates, also requires Internet access. If your cluster is connected to the Internet, Telemetry runs automatically, and your cluster is registered to the Red Hat OpenShift Cluster Manager (OCM).
Once you confirm that your Red Hat OpenShift Cluster Manager inventory is correct, either maintained automatically by Telemetry or manually using OCM, use subscription watch to track your OpenShift Container Platform subscriptions at the account or multi-cluster level.
You must have Internet access to:
Access the Red Hat OpenShift Cluster Manager page to download the installation program and perform subscription management. If the cluster has Internet access and you do not disable Telemetry, that service automatically entitles your cluster.
Access Quay.io to obtain the packages that are required to install your cluster.
Obtain the packages that are required to perform cluster updates.
If your cluster cannot have direct Internet access, you can perform a restricted network installation on some types of infrastructure that you provision. During that process, you download the content that is required and use it to populate a mirror registry with the packages that you need to install a cluster and generate the installation program. With some installation types, the environment that you install your cluster in will not require Internet access. Before you update the cluster, you update the content of the mirror registry. |
To install OpenShift Container Platform on user-provisioned infrastructure in Amazon Web Services (AWS), you must manually create both the machines and their supporting infrastructure.
For more information about the integration testing for different platforms, see the OpenShift Container Platform 4.x Tested Integrations page.
You can use the provided Cloud Formation templates to create this infrastructure, you can manually create the components, or you can reuse existing infrastructure that meets the cluster requirements. Review the Cloud Formation templates for more details about how the components interrelate.
You need AWS::EC2::Instance
objects for the following machines:
A bootstrap machine. This machine is required during installation, but you can remove it after your cluster deploys.
Three control plane machines. The control plane machines are not governed by a machine set.
Compute machines. You must create at least two compute machines, which are also known as worker machines, during installation. These machines are not governed by a machine set.
You can use the following instance types for the cluster machines with the provided Cloud Formation templates.

You might be able to use other instance types that meet the specifications of these instance types.
Because your cluster has limited access to automatic machine management when you
use infrastructure that you provision, you must provide a mechanism for approving
cluster certificate signing requests (CSRs) after installation. The
kube-controller-manager
only approves the kubelet client CSRs. The
machine-approver
cannot guarantee the validity of a serving certificate
that is requested by using kubelet credentials because it cannot confirm that
the correct machine issued the request. You must determine and implement a
method of verifying the validity of the kubelet serving certificate requests
and approving them.
A VPC
DNS entries
Load balancers (classic or network) and listeners
A public and a private Route 53 zone
Security groups
IAM roles
S3 buckets
If you are working in a disconnected environment, you are unable to reach the public IP addresses for EC2 and ELB endpoints. To resolve this, you must create a VPC endpoint and attach it to the subnet that the clusters are using. The endpoints should be named as follows:
ec2.<region>.amazonaws.com
elasticloadbalancing.<region>.amazonaws.com
s3.<region>.amazonaws.com
You must provide a suitable VPC and subnets that allow communication to your machines.
Component | AWS type | Description | |
---|---|---|---|
VPC |
|
You must provide a public VPC for the cluster to use. The VPC uses an endpoint that references the route tables for each subnet to improve communication with the registry that is hosted in S3. |
|
Public subnets |
|
Your VPC must have public subnets for between 1 and 3 availability zones and associate them with appropriate Ingress rules. |
|
Internet gateway |
|
You must have a public Internet gateway, with public routes, attached to the VPC. In the provided templates, each public subnet has a NAT gateway with an EIP address. These NAT gateways allow cluster resources, like private subnet instances, to reach the Internet and are not required for some restricted network or proxy scenarios. |
|
Network access control |
|
You must allow the VPC to access the following ports: |
|
Port |
Reason |
||
|
Inbound HTTP traffic |
||
|
Inbound HTTPS traffic |
||
|
Inbound SSH traffic |
||
|
Inbound ephemeral traffic |
||
|
Outbound ephemeral traffic |
||
Private subnets |
|
Your VPC can have private subnets. The provided CloudFormation templates can create private subnets for between 1 and 3 availability zones. If you use private subnets, you must provide appropriate routes and tables for them. |
Your DNS and load balancer configuration needs to use a public hosted zone and
can use a private hosted zone similar to the one that the installation program
uses if it provisions the cluster’s infrastructure. You must
create a DNS entry that resolves to your load balancer. An entry for
api.<cluster_name>.<domain>
must point to the external load balancer, and an
entry for api-int.<cluster_name>.<domain>
must point to the internal load
balancer.
The cluster also requires load balancers and listeners for port 6443, which are required for the Kubernetes API and its extensions, and port 22623, which are required for the Ignition config files for new machines. The targets will be the master nodes. Port 6443 must be accessible to both clients external to the cluster and nodes within the cluster. Port 22623 must be accessible to nodes within the cluster.
Component | AWS type | Description |
---|---|---|
DNS |
|
The hosted zone for your internal DNS. |
etcd record sets |
|
The registration records for etcd for your control plane machines. |
Public load balancer |
|
The load balancer for your public subnets. |
External API server record |
|
Alias records for the external API server. |
External listener |
|
A listener on port 6443 for the external load balancer. |
External target group |
|
The target group for the external load balancer. |
Private load balancer |
|
The load balancer for your private subnets. |
Internal API server record |
|
Alias records for the internal API server. |
Internal listener |
|
A listener on port 22623 for the internal load balancer. |
Internal target group |
|
The target group for the internal load balancer. |
Internal listener |
|
A listener on port 6443 for the internal load balancer. |

You must grant the machines permissions in AWS. The provided CloudFormation
templates grant the machines permission the following AWS::IAM::Role
objects
and provide a AWS::IAM::InstanceProfile
for each set of roles. If you do
not use the templates, you can grant the machines the following broad permissions
or the following individual permissions.

Before you install OpenShift Container Platform, download the installation file on a local computer.
You must install the cluster from a computer that uses Linux or macOS.
You need 500 MB of local disk space to download the installation program.
Access the Infrastructure Provider page on the Red Hat OpenShift Cluster Manager site. If you have a Red Hat account, log in with your credentials. If you do not, create an account.
Navigate to the page for your installation type, download the installation program for your operating system, and place the file in the directory where you will store the installation configuration files.
The installation program creates several files on the computer that you use to install your cluster. You must keep both the installation program and the files that the installation program creates after you finish installing the cluster. |
Deleting the files created by the installation program does not remove your cluster, even if the cluster failed during installation. You must complete the OpenShift Container Platform uninstallation procedures outlined for your specific cloud provider to remove your cluster entirely. |
Extract the installation program. For example, on a computer that uses a Linux operating system, run the following command:
$ tar xvf <installation_program>.tar.gz
From the
Pull Secret page on the Red Hat OpenShift Cluster Manager site, download your installation pull secret as a .txt
file. This pull secret allows you to authenticate with the services that
are provided by the included authorities, including Quay.io, which serves the
container images for OpenShift Container Platform components.
If you want to perform installation debugging or disaster recovery on your cluster, you must provide an SSH key to both your ssh-agent
and the installation program. You can use this key to access the bootstrap machine in a public cluster to troubleshoot installation issues.
In a production environment, you require disaster recovery and debugging. |
You can use this key to SSH into the master nodes as the user core
. When you
deploy the cluster, the key is added to the core
user’s
~/.ssh/authorized_keys
list.
You must use a local key, not one that you configured with platform-specific approaches such as AWS key pairs. |
If you do not have an SSH key that is configured for password-less authentication on your computer, create one. For example, on a computer that uses a Linux operating system, run the following command:
$ ssh-keygen -t ed25519 -N '' \ -f <path>/<file_name> (1)
1 | Specify the path and file name, such as ~/.ssh/id_rsa , of the SSH key.
Do not specify an existing SSH key, as it will be overwritten. |
Running this command generates an SSH key that does not require a password in the location that you specified.
Start the ssh-agent
process as a background task:
$ eval "$(ssh-agent -s)" Agent pid 31874
Add your SSH private key to the ssh-agent
:
$ ssh-add <path>/<file_name> (1) Identity added: /home/<you>/<path>/<file_name> (<computer_name>)
1 | Specify the path and file name for your SSH private key, such as ~/.ssh/id_rsa |
When you install OpenShift Container Platform, provide the SSH public key to the installation program. If you install a cluster on infrastructure that you provision, you must provide this key to your cluster’s machines.
To install OpenShift Container Platform on Amazon Web Services (AWS) using user-provisioned
infrastructure, you must generate the files that the installation
program needs to deploy your cluster and modify them so that the cluster creates
only the machines that it will use. You generate and customize the
install-config.yaml
file, Kubernetes manifests, and Ignition config files.
Generate and customize the installation configuration file that the installation program needs to deploy your cluster.
Obtain the OpenShift Container Platform installation program and the pull secret for your cluster.
Obtain the install-config.yaml
file.
Run the following command:
$ ./openshift-install create install-config --dir=<installation_directory> (1)
1 | For <installation_directory> , specify the directory name to store the
files that the installation program creates. |
Specify an empty directory. Some installation assets, like bootstrap X.509 certificates have short expiration intervals, so you must not reuse an installation directory. If you want to reuse individual files from another cluster installation, you can copy them into your directory. However, the file names for the installation assets might change between releases. Use caution when copying installation files from an earlier OpenShift Container Platform version. |
At the prompts, provide the configuration details for your cloud:
Optional: Select an SSH key to use to access your cluster machines.
For production OpenShift Container Platform clusters on which you want to perform installation debugging or disaster recovery, specify an SSH key that your |
Select aws as the platform to target.
If you do not have an AWS profile stored on your computer, enter the AWS access key ID and secret access key for the user that you configured to run the installation program.
Select the AWS region to deploy the cluster to.
Select the base domain for the Route 53 service that you configured for your cluster.
Enter a descriptive name for your cluster.
Paste the pull secret that you obtained from the Pull Secret page on the Red Hat OpenShift Cluster Manager site.
Edit the install-config.yaml
file to set the number of compute replicas, which are also known as worker
replicas, to 0
, as shown in the following compute
stanza:
compute:
- hyperthreading: Enabled
name: worker
platform: {}
replicas: 0
Optional: Back up the install-config.yaml
file.

Production environments can deny direct access to the Internet and instead have
an HTTP or HTTPS proxy available. You can configure a new OpenShift Container Platform
cluster to use a proxy by configuring the proxy settings in the
install-config.yaml
file.
An existing install-config.yaml
file.
Review the sites that your cluster requires access to and determine whether any need to bypass the proxy. By default, all cluster egress traffic is proxied, including calls to hosting cloud provider APIs. Add sites to the Proxy
object’s spec.noProxy
field to bypass the proxy if necessary.

-----END CERTIFICATE-----
...
1 | A proxy URL to use for creating HTTP connections outside the cluster. The
URL scheme must be http . If you use an MITM transparent proxy network that does not require additional proxy configuration but requires additional CAs, you must not specify an httpProxy value. |
2 | A proxy URL to use for creating HTTPS connections outside the cluster. If
this field is not specified, then httpProxy is used for both HTTP and HTTPS
connections.
If you use an MITM transparent proxy network that does not require additional proxy configuration but requires additional CAs, you must not specify an httpsProxy value. |
3 | A comma-separated list of destination domain names, domains, IP addresses, or
other network CIDRs to exclude proxying. Preface a domain with . to include
all subdomains of that domain. Use * to bypass proxy for all destinations. |
4 | If provided, the installation program generates a config map that is named user-ca-bundle in
the openshift-config namespace that contains one or more additional CA
certificates that are required for proxying HTTPS connections. The Cluster Network
Operator then creates a trusted-ca-bundle config map that merges these contents
with the Red Hat Enterprise Linux CoreOS (RHCOS) trust bundle, and this config map is referenced in the Proxy
object’s trustedCA field. The additionalTrustBundle field is required unless
the proxy’s identity certificate is signed by an authority from the RHCOS trust
bundle.
If you use an MITM transparent proxy network that does not require additional proxy configuration but requires additional CAs, you must provide the MITM CA certificate. |
The installation program does not support the proxy |

Because you must modify some cluster definition files and manually start the cluster machines, you must generate the Kubernetes manifest and Ignition config files that the cluster needs to make its machines.
The Ignition config files that the installation program generates contain certificates that expire after 24 hours, which are then renewed at that time. If the cluster is shut down before renewing the certificates and the cluster is later restarted after the 24 hours have elapsed, the cluster automatically recovers the expired certificates. The exception is that you must manually approve the pending |
Obtain the OpenShift Container Platform installation program.
Create the install-config.yaml
installation configuration file.
Generate the Kubernetes manifests for the cluster:
$ ./openshift-install create manifests --dir=<installation_directory> (1) INFO Consuming Install Config from target directory WARNING Making control-plane schedulable by setting MastersSchedulable to true for Scheduler cluster settings
1 | For <installation_directory> , specify the installation directory that
contains the install-config.yaml file you created. |
Because you create your own compute machines later in the installation process, you can safely ignore this warning.
Remove the Kubernetes manifest files that define the control plane machines:
$ rm -f <installation_directory>/openshift/99_openshift-cluster-api_master-machines-*.yaml
By removing these files, you prevent the cluster from automatically generating control plane machines.
Remove the Kubernetes manifest files that define the worker machines:
$ rm -f <installation_directory>/openshift/99_openshift-cluster-api_worker-machineset-*.yaml
Because you create and manage the worker machines yourself, you do not need to initialize these machines.
Modify the <installation_directory>/manifests/cluster-scheduler-02-config.yml
Kubernetes manifest file to prevent pods from being scheduled on the control plane machines:
Open the <installation_directory>/manifests/cluster-scheduler-02-config.yml
file.
Locate the mastersSchedulable
parameter and set its value to False
.
Save and exit the file.
Currently, due to a Kubernetes limitation, router Pods running on control plane machines will not be reachable by the ingress load balancer. This step might not be required in a future minor version of OpenShift Container Platform. |
Optional: If you do not want
the Ingress Operator
to create DNS records on your behalf, remove the privateZone
and publicZone
sections from the <installation_directory>/manifests/cluster-dns-02-config.yml
DNS configuration file:
apiVersion: config.openshift.io/v1
kind: DNS
metadata:
creationTimestamp: null
name: cluster
spec:
baseDomain: example.openshift.com
privateZone: (1)
id: mycluster-100419-private-zone
publicZone: (1)
id: example.openshift.com
status: {}
1 | Remove these sections completely. |
If you do so, you must add ingress DNS records manually in a later step.
Obtain the Ignition config files:
$ ./openshift-install create ignition-configs --dir=<installation_directory> (1)
1 | For <installation_directory> , specify the same installation directory. |
The following files are generated in the directory:
. ├── auth │ ├── kubeadmin-password │ └── kubeconfig ├── bootstrap.ign ├── master.ign ├── metadata.json └── worker.ign
The Ignition configs contain a unique cluster identifier that you can use to uniquely identify your cluster in Amazon Web Services (AWS). The provided CloudFormation templates contain references to this infrastructure name, so you must extract it.
Obtain the OpenShift Container Platform installation program and the pull secret for your cluster.
Generate the Ignition config files for your cluster.
Install the jq
package.
To extract and view the infrastructure name from the Ignition config file metadata, run the following command:
$ jq -r .infraID /<installation_directory>/metadata.json (1) openshift-vw9j6 (2)
1 | For <installation_directory> , specify the path to the directory that you stored the
installation files in. |
2 | The output of this command is your cluster name and a random string. |
You must create a VPC in Amazon Web Services (AWS) for your OpenShift Container Platform cluster to use. You can customize the VPC to meet your requirements, including VPN and route tables. The easiest way to create the VPC is to modify the provided CloudFormation template.
If you do not use the provided CloudFormation template to create your AWS infrastructure, you must review the provided information and manually create the infrastructure. If your cluster does not initialize correctly, you might have to contact Red Hat support with your installation logs. |
Configure an AWS account.
Generate the Ignition config files for your cluster.
Create a JSON file that contains the parameter values that the template requires:
[
{
"ParameterKey": "VpcCidr", (1)
"ParameterValue": "10.0.0.0/16" (2)
},
{
"ParameterKey": "AvailabilityZoneCount", (3)
"ParameterValue": "1" (4)
},
{
"ParameterKey": "SubnetBits", (5)
"ParameterValue": "12" (6)
}
]
1 | The CIDR block for the VPC. |
2 | Specify a CIDR block in the format x.x.x.x/16-24 . |
3 | The number of availability zones to deploy the VPC in. |
4 | Specify an integer between 1 and 3 . |
5 | The size of each subnet in each availability zone. |
6 | Specify an integer between 5 and 13 , where 5 is /27 and 13 is /19 . |
Copy the template from the CloudFormation template for the VPC section of this topic and save it as a YAML file on your computer. This template describes the VPC that your cluster requires.
Launch the template:
You must enter the command on a single line. |
$ aws cloudformation create-stack --stack-name <name> (1) --template-body file://<template>.yaml (2) --parameters file://<parameters>.json (3)
1 | <name> is the name for the CloudFormation stack, such as cluster-vpc .
You need the name of this stack if you remove the cluster. |
2 | <template> is the relative path to and name of the CloudFormation template
YAML file that you saved. |
3 | <parameters> is the relative path to and name of the CloudFormation
parameters JSON file. |
Confirm that the template components exist:
$ aws cloudformation describe-stacks --stack-name <name>

You must configure networking and load balancing (classic or network) in Amazon Web Services (AWS) for your OpenShift Container Platform cluster to use. The easiest way to create these components is to modify the provided CloudFormation template, which also creates a hosted zone and subnet tags.
You can run the template multiple times within a single VPC.
If you do not use the provided CloudFormation template to create your AWS infrastructure, you must review the provided information and manually create the infrastructure. If your cluster does not initialize correctly, you might have to contact Red Hat support with your installation logs. |
Configure an AWS account.
Generate the Ignition config files for your cluster.
Create and configure a VPC and associated subnets in AWS.
Obtain the Hosted Zone ID for the Route 53 zone that you specified in the
install-config.yaml
file for your cluster. You can obtain this ID from the
AWS console or by running the following command:
You must enter the command on a single line. |
$ aws route53 list-hosted-zones-by-name | jq --arg name "<route53_domain>." \ (1) -r '.HostedZones | .[] | select(.Name=="\($name)") | .Id'
1 | For the <route53_domain> , specify the Route 53 base domain that you used
when you generated the install-config.yaml file for the cluster. |
Create a JSON file that contains the parameter values that the template requires:
[
{
"ParameterKey": "ClusterName", (1)
"ParameterValue": "mycluster" (2)
},
{
"ParameterKey": "InfrastructureName", (3)
"ParameterValue": "mycluster-<random_string>" (4)
},
{
"ParameterKey": "HostedZoneId", (5)
"ParameterValue": "<random_string>" (6)
},
{
"ParameterKey": "HostedZoneName", (7)
"ParameterValue": "example.com" (8)
},
{
"ParameterKey": "PublicSubnets", (9)
"ParameterValue": "subnet-<random_string>" (10)
},
{
"ParameterKey": "PrivateSubnets", (11)
"ParameterValue": "subnet-<random_string>" (12)
},
{
"ParameterKey": "VpcId", (13)
"ParameterValue": "vpc-<random_string>" (14)
}
]
1 | A short, representative cluster name to use for host names, etc. |
2 | Specify the cluster name that you used when you generated the
install-config.yaml file for the cluster. |
3 | The name for your cluster infrastructure that is encoded in your Ignition config files for the cluster. |
4 | Specify the infrastructure name that you extracted from the Ignition config
file metadata, which has the format <cluster-name>-<random-string> . |
5 | The Route 53 public zone ID to register the targets with. |
6 | Specify the Route 53 public zone ID, which as a format similar to
Z21IXYZABCZ2A4 . You can obtain this value from the AWS console. |
7 | The Route 53 zone to register the targets with. |
8 | Specify the Route 53 base domain that you used when you generated the
install-config.yaml file for the cluster. Do not include the trailing period
(.) that is displayed in the AWS console. |
9 | The public subnets that you created for your VPC. |
10 | Specify the PublicSubnetIds value from the output of the CloudFormation
template for the VPC. |
11 | The private subnets that you created for your VPC. |
12 | Specify the PrivateSubnetIds value from the output of the CloudFormation
template for the VPC. |
13 | The VPC that you created for the cluster. |
14 | Specify the VpcId value from the output of the CloudFormation template
for the VPC. |
Copy the template from the CloudFormation template for the network and load balancers section of this topic and save it as a YAML file on your computer. This template describes the networking and load balancing objects that your cluster requires.
Launch the template:
You must enter the command on a single line. |
$ aws cloudformation create-stack --stack-name <name> (1) --template-body file://<template>.yaml (2) --parameters file://<parameters>.json (3) --capabilities CAPABILITY_NAMED_IAM
1 | <name> is the name for the CloudFormation stack, such as cluster-dns .
You need the name of this stack if you remove the cluster. |
2 | <template> is the relative path to and name of the CloudFormation template
YAML file that you saved. |
3 | <parameters> is the relative path to and name of the CloudFormation
parameters JSON file. |
Confirm that the template components exist:
$ aws cloudformation describe-stacks --stack-name <name>
After the StackStatus
displays CREATE_COMPLETE
, the output displays values
for the following parameters. You must provide these parameter values to
the other CloudFormation templates that you run to create your cluster:
PrivateHostedZoneId
|
Hosted zone ID for the private DNS. |
ExternalApiLoadBalancerName
|
Full name of the external API load balancer. |
InternalApiLoadBalancerName
|
Full name of the internal API load balancer. |
ApiServerDnsName
|
Full host name of the API server. |

You must create the bootstrap node in Amazon Web Services (AWS) to use during OpenShift Container Platform cluster initialization. The easiest way to create this node is to modify the provided CloudFormation template.
If you do not use the provided CloudFormation template to create your bootstrap node, you must review the provided information and manually create the infrastructure. If your cluster does not initialize correctly, you might have to contact Red Hat support with your installation logs. |
Configure an AWS account.
Generate the Ignition config files for your cluster.
Create and configure a VPC and associated subnets in AWS.
Create and configure DNS, load balancers, and listeners in AWS.
Create control plane and compute roles.
Provide a location to serve the bootstrap.ign
Ignition config file to your
cluster. This file is located in your installation directory. One way to do this
is to create an S3 bucket in your cluster’s region and upload the Ignition
config file to it.
The provided CloudFormation Template assumes that the Ignition config files for your cluster are served from an S3 bucket. If you choose to serve the files from another location, you must modify the templates. |
The bootstrap Ignition config file does contain secrets, like X.509 keys. The following steps provide basic security for the S3 bucket. To provide additional security, you can enable an S3 bucket policy to allow only certain users, such as the OpenShift IAM user, to access objects that the bucket contains. You can avoid S3 entirely and serve your bootstrap Ignition config file from any address that the bootstrap machine can reach. |
Create the bucket:
$ aws s3 mb s3://<cluster-name>-infra (1)
1 | <cluster-name>-infra is the bucket name. |
Upload the bootstrap.ign
Ignition config file to the bucket:
$ aws s3 cp bootstrap.ign s3://<cluster-name>-infra/bootstrap.ign
Verify that the file uploaded:
$ aws s3 ls s3://<cluster-name>-infra/ 2019-04-03 16:15:16 314878 bootstrap.ign
Create a JSON file that contains the parameter values that the template requires:
[
{
"ParameterKey": "InfrastructureName", (1)
"ParameterValue": "mycluster-<random_string>" (2)
},
{
"ParameterKey": "RhcosAmi", (3)

23 | The ARN for internal service load balancer target group. |
24 | Specify the InternalServiceTargetGroupArn value from the output of the
CloudFormation template for DNS and load balancing. |
Copy the template from the CloudFormation template for the bootstrap machine section of this topic and save it as a YAML file on your computer. This template describes the bootstrap machine that your cluster requires.
Launch the template:
You must enter the command on a single line. |
$ aws cloudformation create-stack --stack-name <name> (1) --template-body file://<template>.yaml (2) --parameters file://<parameters>.json (3) --capabilities CAPABILITY_NAMED_IAM
1 | <name> is the name for the CloudFormation stack, such as cluster-bootstrap .
You need the name of this stack if you remove the cluster. |
2 | <template> is the relative path to and name of the CloudFormation template
YAML file that you saved. |
3 | <parameters> is the relative path to and name of the CloudFormation
parameters JSON file. |
Confirm that the template components exist:
$ aws cloudformation describe-stacks --stack-name <name>
After the StackStatus
displays CREATE_COMPLETE
, the output displays values
for the following parameters. You must provide these parameter values to
the other CloudFormation templates that you run to create your cluster:
BootstrapInstanceId
|
The bootstrap Instance ID. |
BootstrapPublicIp
|
The bootstrap node public IP address. |
BootstrapPrivateIp
|
The bootstrap node private IP address. |

After you create all of the required infrastructure in Amazon Web Services (AWS), you can install the cluster.
Configure an AWS account.
Generate the Ignition config files for your cluster.
Create and configure a VPC and associated subnets in AWS.
Create and configure DNS, load balancers, and listeners in AWS.
Create control plane and compute roles.
Create the bootstrap machine.
Create the control plane machines.
If you plan to manually manage the worker machines, create the worker machines.
Change to the directory that contains the installation program and run the following command:
$ ./openshift-install wait-for bootstrap-complete --dir=<installation_directory> \ (1) --log-level=info (2)
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 . |
If the command exits without a FATAL
warning, your production control plane
has initialized.
You can create worker nodes in Amazon Web Services (AWS) for your cluster to use. The easiest way to manually create these nodes is to modify the provided CloudFormation template.
The CloudFormation template creates a stack that represents one worker machine. You must create a stack for each worker machine. |
If you do not use the provided CloudFormation template to create your worker nodes, you must review the provided information and manually create the infrastructure. If your cluster does not initialize correctly, you might have to contact Red Hat support with your installation logs. |

You can log in to your cluster as a default system user by exporting the cluster kubeconfig
file.
The kubeconfig
file contains information about the cluster that is used by the CLI to connect a client to the correct cluster and API server.
The file is specific to a cluster and is created during OpenShift Container Platform installation.
Deploy an OpenShift Container Platform cluster.
Install the oc
CLI.
Export the kubeadmin
credentials:
$ export KUBECONFIG=<installation_directory>/auth/kubeconfig (1)
1 | For <installation_directory> , specify the path to the directory that you stored
the installation files in. |
Verify you can run oc
commands successfully using the exported configuration:
$ oc whoami system:admin
When you add machines to a cluster, two pending certificate signing requests (CSRs) are generated for each machine that you added. You must confirm that these CSRs are approved or, if necessary, approve them yourself. The client requests must be approved first, followed by the server requests.
You added machines to your cluster.
Confirm that the cluster recognizes the machines:
# oc get nodes NAME STATUS ROLES AGE VERSION master-01.example.com Ready master 40d v1.17.1 master-02.example.com Ready master 40d v1.17.1 master-03.example.com Ready master 40d v1.17.1 worker-01.example.com Ready worker 40d v1.17.1 worker-02.example.com Ready worker 40d v1.17.1
The output lists all of the machines that you created.
Review the pending CSRs and ensure that you see the client requests with the Pending
or Approved
status for each machine that you added to the cluster:
$ oc get csr NAME AGE REQUESTOR CONDITION csr-8b2br 15m system:serviceaccount:openshift-machine-config-operator:node-bootstrapper Pending csr-8vnps 15m system:serviceaccount:openshift-machine-config-operator:node-bootstrapper Pending ...
In this example, two machines are joining the cluster. You might see more approved CSRs in the list.
If the CSRs were not approved, after all of the pending CSRs for the machines you added are in Pending
status, approve the CSRs for your cluster machines:
Because the CSRs rotate automatically, approve your CSRs within an hour of adding the machines to the cluster. If you do not approve them within an hour, the certificates will rotate, and more than two certificates will be present for each node. You must approve all of these certificates. After you approve the initial CSRs, the subsequent node client CSRs are automatically approved by the cluster |
To approve them individually, run the following command for each valid CSR:
$ oc adm certificate approve <csr_name> (1)
1 | <csr_name> is the name of a CSR from the list of current CSRs. |
To approve all pending CSRs, run the following command:
$ oc get csr -o go-template='{{range .items}}{{if not .status}}{{.metadata.name}}{{"\n"}}{{end}}{{end}}' | xargs oc adm certificate approve
Now that your client requests are approved, you must review the server requests for each machine that you added to the cluster:
$ oc get csr
NAME AGE REQUESTOR CONDITION
csr-bfd72 5m26s system:node:ip-10-0-50-126.us-east-2.compute.internal Pending
csr-c57lv 5m26s system:node:ip-10-0-95-157.us-east-2.compute.internal Pending
...
If the remaining CSRs are not approved, and are in the Pending
status, approve the CSRs for your cluster machines:
To approve them individually, run the following command for each valid CSR:
$ oc adm certificate approve <csr_name> (1)
1 | <csr_name> is the name of a CSR from the list of current CSRs. |
To approve all pending CSRs, run the following command:
$ oc get csr -o go-template='{{range .items}}{{if not .status}}{{.metadata.name}}{{"\n"}}{{end}}{{end}}' | xargs oc adm certificate approve
After all client and server CSRs have been approved, the machines have the Ready
status. Verify this by running the following command:
$ oc get nodes
NAME STATUS ROLES AGE VERSION
master-0 Ready master 73m v1.20.0
master-1 Ready master 73m v1.20.0
master-2 Ready master 74m v1.20.0
worker-0 Ready worker 11m v1.20.0
worker-1 Ready worker 11m v1.20.0
It can take a few minutes after approval of the server CSRs for the machines to transition to the |

After the control plane initializes, you must immediately configure some Operators so that they all become available.
Your control plane has initialized.
Watch the cluster components come online:
$ watch -n5 oc get clusteroperators NAME VERSION AVAILABLE PROGRESSING DEGRADED SINCE authentication 4.4.0 True False False 69s cloud-credential 4.4.0 True False False 12m cluster-autoscaler 4.4.0 True False False 11m console 4.4.0 True False False 46s dns 4.4.0 True False False 11m image-registry 4.4.0 True False False 5m26s ingress 4.4.0 True False False 5m36s kube-apiserver 4.4.0 True False False 8m53s kube-controller-manager 4.4.0 True False False 7m24s kube-scheduler 4.4.0 True False False 12m machine-api 4.4.0 True False False 12m machine-config 4.4.0 True False False 7m36s marketplace 4.4.0 True False False 7m54m monitoring 4.4.0 True False False 7h54s network 4.4.0 True False False 5m9s node-tuning 4.4.0 True False False 11m openshift-apiserver 4.4.0 True False False 11m openshift-controller-manager 4.4.0 True False False 5m943s openshift-samples 4.4.0 True False False 3m55s operator-lifecycle-manager 4.4.0 True False False 11m operator-lifecycle-manager-catalog 4.4.0 True False False 11m service-ca 4.4.0 True False False 11m service-catalog-apiserver 4.4.0 True False False 5m26s service-catalog-controller-manager 4.4.0 True False False 5m25s storage 4.4.0 True False False 5m30s
Configure the Operators that are not available.
Amazon Web Services provides default storage, which means the Image Registry Operator is available after installation. However, if the Registry Operator cannot create an S3 bucket and automatically configure storage, you must manually configure registry storage.
Instructions for both configuring a persistent volume, which is required for production clusters, and for configuring an empty directory as the storage location, which is available for only non-production clusters, are shown.
During installation, your cloud credentials are sufficient to create an S3 bucket and the Registry Operator will automatically configure storage.
If the Registry Operator cannot create an S3 bucket and automatically configure storage, you can create an S3 bucket and configure storage with the following procedure.
A cluster on AWS with user-provisioned infrastructure.
For S3 on AWS storage the secret is expected to contain two keys:
REGISTRY_STORAGE_S3_ACCESSKEY
REGISTRY_STORAGE_S3_SECRETKEY
Use the following procedure if the Registry Operator cannot create an S3 bucket and automatically configure storage.
Set up a Bucket Lifecycle Policy to abort incomplete multipart uploads that are one day old.
Fill in the storage configuration in
configs.imageregistry.operator.openshift.io/cluster
:
$ oc edit configs.imageregistry.operator.openshift.io/cluster storage: s3: bucket: <bucket-name> region: <region-name>
To secure your registry images in AWS, block public access to the S3 bucket. |
You must configure storage for the Image Registry Operator. For non-production clusters, you can set the image registry to an empty directory. If you do so, all images are lost if you restart the registry.
To set the image registry storage to an empty directory:
$ oc patch configs.imageregistry.operator.openshift.io cluster --type merge --patch '{"spec":{"storage":{"emptyDir":{}}}}'
Configure this option for only non-production clusters. |
If you run this command before the Image Registry Operator initializes its
components, the oc patch
command fails with the following error:
Error from server (NotFound): configs.imageregistry.operator.openshift.io "cluster" not found
Wait a few minutes and run the command again.
After you complete the initial Operator configuration for the cluster, remove the bootstrap resources from Amazon Web Services (AWS).
You completed the initial Operator configuration for your cluster.
Delete the bootstrap resources. If you used the CloudFormation template, delete its stack:
$ aws cloudformation delete-stack --stack-name <name> (1)
1 | <name> is the name of your bootstrap stack. |
If you removed the DNS Zone configuration, manually create DNS records that point to the Ingress load balancer. You can create either a wildcard record or specific records. While the following procedure uses A records, you can use other record types that you require, such as CNAME or alias.
You deployed an OpenShift Container Platform cluster on Amazon Web Services (AWS) that uses infrastructure that you provisioned.
Install the OpenShift CLI (oc
).
Install the jq
package.
Download the AWS CLI and install it on your computer. See Install the AWS CLI Using the Bundled Installer (Linux, macOS, or Unix).
Determine the routes to create.
To create a wildcard record, use *.apps.<cluster_name>.<domain_name>
, where <cluster_name>
is your cluster name, and <domain_name>
is the Route 53 base domain for your OpenShift Container Platform cluster.
To create specific records, you must create a record for each route that your cluster uses, as shown in the output of the following command:
$ oc get --all-namespaces -o jsonpath='{range .items[*]}{range .status.ingress[*]}{.host}{"\n"}{end}{end}' routes oauth-openshift.apps.<cluster_name>.<domain_name> console-openshift-console.apps.<cluster_name>.<domain_name> downloads-openshift-console.apps.<cluster_name>.<domain_name> alertmanager-main-openshift-monitoring.apps.<cluster_name>.<domain_name> grafana-openshift-monitoring.apps.<cluster_name>.<domain_name> prometheus-k8s-openshift-monitoring.apps.<cluster_name>.<domain_name>
Retrieve the Ingress Operator load balancer status and note the value of the external IP address that it uses, which is shown in the EXTERNAL-IP
column:
$ oc -n openshift-ingress get service router-default NAME TYPE CLUSTER-IP EXTERNAL-IP PORT(S) AGE router-default LoadBalancer 172.30.62.215 ab3...28.us-east-2.elb.amazonaws.com 80:31499/TCP,443:30693/TCP 5m
Locate the hosted zone ID for the load balancer:
$ aws elb describe-load-balancers | jq -r '.LoadBalancerDescriptions[] | select(.DNSName == "<external_ip>").CanonicalHostedZoneNameID' (1) Z3AADJGX6KTTL2
1 | For <external_ip> , specify the value of the external IP address of the Ingress Operator load balancer that you obtained. |
The output of this command is the load balancer hosted zone ID.
Obtain the public hosted zone ID for your cluster’s domain:
$ aws route53 list-hosted-zones-by-name \ --dns-name "<domain_name>" \ (1) --query 'HostedZones[? Config.PrivateZone != `true` && Name == `<domain_name>.`].Id' (1) --output text /hostedzone/Z3URY6TWQ91KVV
1 | For <domain_name> , specify the Route53 base domain for your OpenShift Container Platform cluster. |
The public hosted zone ID for your domain is shown in the command output. In this example, it is Z3URY6TWQ91KVV
.
Add the alias records to your private zone:
$ aws route53 change-resource-record-sets --hosted-zone-id "<private_hosted_zone_id>" --change-batch '{ (1) > "Changes": [ > { > "Action": "CREATE", > "ResourceRecordSet": { > "Name": "\\052.apps.<cluster_domain>", (2) > "Type": "A", > "AliasTarget":{ > "HostedZoneId": "<hosted_zone_id>", (3) > "DNSName": "<external_ip>.", (4) > "EvaluateTargetHealth": false > } > } > } > ] > }'
1 | For <private_hosted_zone_id> , specify the value from the output of the CloudFormation template for DNS and load balancing. |
2 | For <cluster_domain> , specify the domain or subdomain that you use with your OpenShift Container Platform cluster. |
3 | For <hosted_zone_id> , specify the public hosted zone ID for the load balancer that you obtained. |
4 | For <external_ip> , specify the value of the external IP address of the Ingress Operator load balancer. Ensure that you include the trailing period (. ) in this parameter value. |
Add the records to your public zone:
$ aws route53 change-resource-record-sets --hosted-zone-id "<public_hosted_zone_id>"" --change-batch '{ (1) > "Changes": [ > { > "Action": "CREATE", > "ResourceRecordSet": { > "Name": "\\052.apps.<cluster_domain>", (2) > "Type": "A", > "AliasTarget":{ > "HostedZoneId": "<hosted_zone_id>", (3) > "DNSName": "<external_ip>.", (4) > "EvaluateTargetHealth": false > } > } > } > ] > }'
1 | For <public_hosted_zone_id> , specify the public hosted zone for your domain. |
2 | For <cluster_domain> , specify the domain or subdomain that you use with your OpenShift Container Platform cluster. |
3 | For <hosted_zone_id> , specify the public hosted zone ID for the load balancer that you obtained. |
4 | For <external_ip> , specify the value of the external IP address of the Ingress Operator load balancer. Ensure that you include the trailing period (. ) in this parameter value. |
After you start the OpenShift Container Platform installation on Amazon Web Service (AWS) user-provisioned infrastructure, monitor the deployment to completion.
Removed the bootstrap node for an OpenShift Container Platform cluster on user-provisioned AWS infrastructure.
Install the oc
CLI and log in.
Complete the cluster installation:
$ ./openshift-install --dir=<installation_directory> wait-for install-complete (1) INFO Waiting up to 30m0s for the cluster to initialize...
1 | For <installation_directory> , specify the path to the directory that you
stored the installation files in. |
The Ignition config files that the installation program generates contain certificates that expire after 24 hours, which are then renewed at that time. If the cluster is shut down before renewing the certificates and the cluster is later restarted after the 24 hours have elapsed, the cluster automatically recovers the expired certificates. The exception is that you must manually approve the pending |
If necessary, you can opt out of remote health reporting.
