This blog post specifically focuses on vSphere IPI clusters, but the steps are similar to other cloud providers (both public cloud and private cloud / on-premises).
POWERPANEL VMWARE ESXI 6.7 HOW TO
This blog post describes how to add a node outside a MachineSet in an existing vSphere IPI cluster. Manually provision nodes outside the MachineSet using the User Provisioning Infrastructure (UPI) methodology. The solution to this problem is to follow a path similar to the control plane node.

In addition, editing virtual machines created by MachineSet is not supported and can cause many additional issues. Some cloud provider integrations (that is, AWS) support adding block volumes other than root volumes, but vSphere providers do not. In my particular case, I had to pass through three different SSDs directly (via vSphere’s RDM) to the underlying virtual machine to provide local backing storage.

The customizations allowed for the underlying virtual machine created by OpenShift are limited. User-provisioned infrastructure does not have access to the advanced machine management and scaling features provided by installer-provisioned infrastructure clusters.Īlong with all the benefits of an installer-provisioned infrastructure, there are also important drawbacks to consider, especially in a vSphere environment. This is in contrast to the user provisioning infrastructure (also known as UPI), which provides all cluster infrastructure and resources, including bootstrap machines, networking, load balancing, storage, and individual cluster machines.

The installer utility creates all the networks, machines, and operating systems needed to support the cluster. Creating a cluster using the infrastructure provisioned by the installer is very easy and delegates bootstrapping and provisioning of the infrastructure to the -install command line utility. This full-stack automation experience works not only with public cloud providers such as AWS, Azure and Google Cloud, but also with private clouds and on-premises environments such as vSphere and OpenStack. OpenShift 4 introduces a new paradigm for cluster installations, the installer provisioning infrastructure (also known as IPI).
