openshift_vsphere_upi's Issues

ACI CISCO + OKD 4.5 or 6

Staff,

We are trying to implement an openshift cluster OKD 4.5 or 6 + Fedora coreOS 33.20210217.3.0, using this repository as a base, we have direct access to the internet without a proxy.

We were able to initialize all the machines, bootstrap, masters and workers, but the deployment does not end, the masters are ready, but the only operators who went up were the Cloud-credential network, workers were not able to go into production, they are on the boot, trying to fetch your boot settings and we have no feedback on completing the bootstrap configuration (timeout)

have you already been successful in integrating ACI + OKD?

could you guide us about this implementation?

Thanks.

OpenShift Pull Secret better link

The best way to get the pull secret is to use this link:
https://cloud.redhat.com/openshift/install/pull-secret

The article provided in https://github.com/noironetworks/openshift_vsphere_upi/blob/master/group_vars/all.yml#L143 does not really works.

disk_size_MB is actually GB

In the group_vars/all.yml config file we set the VMs disk size with a variable called disk_size_MB this is then passed to the terraform vsphere_virtual_machine disk.size attribute.

The disk.size attribute is specified in GB, so the disk_size_MB variable should be renamed to disk_size_GB

DNS pods did not resolve

Dear all,

our setup:
ACI - 4.2(7t);
VMware - 7 u3;
in the vars file is set to not provision DNS on the LB machine;

We tried several times to install the OCP without success(ocp 4.13, ocp 4.12, ocp4.11). Almost all the Cluster Operators are OK, but some of them are receiving errors with the communication. Based on that we troubleshooted it and we figured out that they have a problem with the DNS pods. There is a problem with the DNS pods in openshift-dns namespace.

The DNS pods are in a RUNNING state.
When trying to execute on them "dig dig oauth-openshift.apps." it is timeout. But if we execute the same command from the nodes it is OK.

Are we missing something from your docs(https://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/td/docs/dcn/aci/containers/installation/openshift-on-vsphere/installing-openshift-4-13-on-vmware-vsphere.html)?

Compatibility with Ansible 2.13 and above

Due to a change in behaviour in how Templating works in ansible 2.13+ the generation of masters_api_ip_list and workers_api_ip_list will fail in the common role.

Our code can be re-written as:

- set_fact:
      masters_api_ip_list: "{{ masters_api_ip_list | default([]) + [ item.value.ip ] }}"
  with_dict: "{{ masters_vars.nodes }}"

- set_fact:
     workers_api_ip_list: "{{ workers_api_ip_list | default([]) + [ item.value.ip ] }}"
  with_dict: "{{ workers_vars.nodes }}"
