Aro Deployment

When to Use

• ARO cluster provisioning
• Cluster configuration
• OpenShift-specific setup

Prerequisites

• Azure CLI authenticated
• OpenShift CLI installed
• ARO resource provider registered
• Sufficient quota for Worker VMs

Commands

Pre-deployment Checks

# Check ARO resource provider
az provider show -n Microsoft.RedHatOpenShift --query "registrationState"

# Check quota
az vm list-usage --location eastus2 -o table

Cluster Deployment

# Create resource group
az group create --name rg-aro --location eastus2

# Create virtual network
az network vnet create \
  --name vnet-aro \
  --resource-group rg-aro \
  --address-prefixes 10.0.0.0/22

# Create master subnet
az network vnet subnet create \
  --name master-subnet \
  --resource-group rg-aro \
  --vnet-name vnet-aro \
  --address-prefixes 10.0.0.0/23

# Create worker subnet
az network vnet subnet create \
  --name worker-subnet \
  --resource-group rg-aro \
  --vnet-name vnet-aro \
  --address-prefixes 10.0.2.0/23

# Create ARO cluster
az aro create \
  --name aro-cluster \
  --resource-group rg-aro \
  --vnet vnet-aro \
  --master-subnet master-subnet \
  --worker-subnet worker-subnet \
  --pull-secret @pull-secret.txt

Post-deployment

# Get cluster credentials
az aro list-credentials --name aro-cluster --resource-group rg-aro

# Get console URL
az aro show --name aro-cluster --resource-group rg-aro --query "consoleProfile.url" -o tsv

# Get API server URL
az aro show --name aro-cluster --resource-group rg-aro --query "apiserverProfile.url" -o tsv

Best Practices

1. Configure pull-secret for Red Hat registry access
2. Enable private cluster for production
3. Integrate with Azure AD for authentication
4. Configure appropriate worker VM SKUs

Output Format

1. Deployment steps completed
2. Cluster credentials
3. Console and API URLs
4. Next steps for configuration
