--cluster-name <cluster_name>

Required. The name of the cluster. When used with the create cluster command, this argument is used to set the cluster name and can hold up to 54 characters. The value for this argument must be unique within your organization.

--compute-machine-type <instance_type>

The instance type for compute nodes in the cluster. This determines the amount of memory and vCPU that is allocated to each compute node. For more information on valid instance types, see AWS Instance types in ROSA service definition.

--disable-scp-checks

Indicates whether cloud permission checks are disabled when attempting to install a cluster.

--dry-run

Simulates creating the cluster.

Optional: When used with the create cluster command, this argument sets the subdomain for your cluster on *.openshiftapps.com. The value for this argument must be unique within your organization, cannot be longer than 15 characters, and cannot be changed after cluster creation. If the argument is not supplied, an autogenerated value is created that depends on the length of the cluster name. If the cluster name is fewer than or equal to 15 characters, that name is used for the domain prefix. If the cluster name is longer than 15 characters, the domain prefix is randomly generated to a 15 character string.

--ec2-metadata-http-tokens string

Configures the use of IMDSv2 for EC2 instances. Valid values are optional (default) or required.

--enable-autoscaling

Enables autoscaling of compute nodes. By default, autoscaling is set to 2 nodes. To set non-default node limits, use this argument with the --min-replicas and --max-replicas arguments.

--host-prefix <subnet>

The subnet prefix length to assign to each individual node, as an integer. For example, if host prefix is set to 23, then each node is assigned a /23 subnet out of the given CIDR.

--machine-cidr <address_block>

Block of IP addresses (ipNet) used by ROSA while installing the cluster, for example, 10.0.0.0/16.

OVN-Kubernetes, the default network provider in ROSA 4.11 and later, uses the 100.64.0.0/16 IP address range internally. If your cluster uses OVN-Kubernetes, do not include the 100.64.0.0/16 IP address range in any other CIDR definitions in your cluster.

--max-replicas <number_of_nodes>

Specifies the maximum number of compute nodes when enabling autoscaling. Default: 2

--min-replicas <number_of_nodes>

Specifies the minimum number of compute nodes when enabling autoscaling. Default: 2

--multi-az

--pod-cidr <address_block>

Block of IP addresses (ipNet) from which pod IP addresses are allocated, for example, 10.128.0.0/14.

--private

Restricts primary API endpoint and application routes to direct, private connectivity.

--private-link

Specifies to use AWS PrivateLink to provide private connectivity between VPCs and services. The --subnet-ids argument is required when using --private-link.

--region <region_name>

The name of the AWS region where your worker pool will be located, for example, us-east-1. This argument overrides the AWS_REGION environment variable.

--replicas n

The number of worker nodes to provision per availability zone. Single-zone clusters require at least 2 nodes. Multi-zone clusters require at least 3 nodes. Default: 2 for single-zone clusters; 3 for multi-zone clusters.

--role-arn <arn>

--service-cidr <address_block>

Block of IP addresses (ipNet) for services, for example, 172.30.0.0/16.

--sts | --non-sts

Specifies whether to use AWS Security Token Service (STS) or IAM credentials (non-STS) to deploy your cluster.

--subnet-ids <aws_subnet_id>

The AWS subnet IDs that are used when installing the cluster, for example, subnet-01abc234d5678ef9a. Subnet IDs must be in pairs with one private subnet ID and one public subnet ID per availability zone. Subnets are comma-delimited, for example, --subnet-ids=subnet-1,subnet-2. Leave the value empty for installer-provisioned subnet IDs.

When using --private-link, the --subnet-ids argument is required and only one private subnet is allowed per zone.

--support-role-arn string

The ARN of the role used by Red Hat Site Reliabilty Engineers (SREs) to enable access to the cluster account to provide support.

--tags

Tags that are used on resources created by Red Hat OpenShift Service on AWS in AWS. Tags can help you manage, identify, organize, search for, and filter resources within AWS. Tags are comma separated, for example: "key value, foo bar".

Red Hat OpenShift Service on AWS only supports custom tags to Red Hat OpenShift resources during cluster creation. Once added, the tags cannot be removed or edited. Tags that are added by Red Hat are required for clusters to stay in compliance with Red Hat production service level agreements (SLAs). These tags must not be removed.

Red Hat OpenShift Service on AWS does not support adding additional tags outside of ROSA cluster-managed resources. These tags can be lost when AWS resources are managed by the ROSA cluster. In these cases, you might need custom solutions or tools to reconcile the tags and keep them intact.

--version string

The version of ROSA that will be used to install the cluster or cluster resources. For cluster use an X.Y.Z format, for example, 4.15.0. For account-role use an X.Y format, for example, 4.15.
