Control plane machine set configuration

Sample YAML for a control plane machine set custom resource

The base of the ControlPlaneMachineSet CR is structured the same way for all platforms.

Sample ControlPlaneMachineSet CR YAML file
apiVersion: machine.openshift.io/v1
kind: ControlPlaneMachineSet
metadata:
  name: cluster (1)
  namespace: openshift-machine-api
spec:
  replicas: 3 (2)
  selector:
    matchLabels:
      machine.openshift.io/cluster-api-cluster: <cluster_id> (3)
      machine.openshift.io/cluster-api-machine-role: master
      machine.openshift.io/cluster-api-machine-type: master
  state: Active (4)
  strategy:
    type: RollingUpdate (5)

        platform: <platform> (6)
        <platform_failure_domains> (7)
      metadata:
        labels:
          machine.openshift.io/cluster-api-cluster: <cluster_id>
          machine.openshift.io/cluster-api-machine-role: master
          machine.openshift.io/cluster-api-machine-type: master
      spec:
        providerSpec:
          value:
            <platform_provider_spec> (8)
1 Specifies the name of the ControlPlaneMachineSet CR, which is cluster. Do not change this value.
2 Specifies the number of control plane machines. Only clusters with three control plane machines are supported, so the replicas value is 3. Horizontal scaling is not supported. Do not change this value.
3 Specifies the infrastructure ID that is based on the cluster ID that you set when you provisioned the cluster. You must specify this value when you create a ControlPlaneMachineSet CR. If you have the OpenShift CLI (oc) installed, you can obtain the infrastructure ID by running the following command: 
$ oc get -o jsonpath='{.status.infrastructureName}{"\n"}' infrastructure cluster
4 Specifies the state of the Operator. When the state is Inactive, the Operator is not operational. You can activate the Operator by setting the value to Active.

Before you activate the Operator, you must ensure that the ControlPlaneMachineSet CR configuration is correct for your cluster requirements. For more information about activating the Control Plane Machine Set Operator, see "Getting started with control plane machine sets".
5 Specifies the update strategy for the cluster. The allowed values are OnDelete and RollingUpdate. The default value is RollingUpdate. For more information about update strategies, see "Updating the control plane configuration".
6 Specifies the cloud provider platform name. Do not change this value.
7 Specifies the <platform_failure_domains> configuration for the cluster. The format and values of this section are provider-specific. For more information, see the sample failure domain configuration for your cloud provider.

VMware vSphere does not support failure domains.
8 Specifies the <platform_provider_spec> configuration for the cluster. The format and values of this section are provider-specific. For more information, see the sample provider specification for your cloud provider.

Provider-specific configuration

The <platform_provider_spec> and <platform_failure_domains> sections of the control plane machine set resources are provider-specific. Refer to the example YAML for your cluster:

Sample YAML for configuring Amazon Web Services clusters

Some sections of the control plane machine set CR are provider-specific. The example YAML in this section show failure domain and provider specification configurations for an Amazon Web Services (AWS) cluster.

Sample AWS failure domain configuration

The control plane machine set concept of a failure domain is analogous to existing AWS concept of an Availability Zone (AZ). The ControlPlaneMachineSet CR spreads control plane machines across multiple failure domains when possible.

When configuring AWS failure domains in the control plane machine set, you must specify the availability zone name and the subnet to use.

Sample AWS failure domain values
failureDomains:
  aws:
  - placement:
      availabilityZone: <aws_zone_a> (1)
    subnet: (2)
      filters:
      - name: tag:Name
        values:
        - <cluster_id>-private-<aws_zone_a> (3)
      type: Filters (4)
  - placement:
      availabilityZone: <aws_zone_b> (5)
    subnet:
      filters:
      - name: tag:Name
        values:
        - <cluster_id>-private-<aws_zone_b> (6)
      type: Filters
  platform: AWS (7)
1 Specifies an AWS availability zone for the first failure domain.
2 Specifies a subnet configuration. In this example, the subnet type is Filters, so there is a filters stanza.
3 Specifies the subnet name for the first failure domain, using the infrastructure ID and the AWS availability zone.
4 Specifies the subnet type. The allowed values are: ARN, Filters and ID. The default value is Filters.
5 Specifies the subnet name for an additional failure domain, using the infrastructure ID and the AWS availability zone.
6 Specifies the cluster’s infrastructure ID and the AWS availability zone for the additional failure domain.
7 Specifies the cloud provider platform name. Do not change this value.

Sample AWS provider specification

When you create a control plane machine set for an existing cluster, the provider specification must match the providerSpec configuration in the control plane machine CR that is created by the installation program. You can omit any field that is set in the failure domain section of the CR.

In the following example, <cluster_id> is the infrastructure ID that is based on the cluster ID that you set when you provisioned the cluster. If you have the OpenShift CLI installed, you can obtain the infrastructure ID by running the following command:

$ oc get -o jsonpath='{.status.infrastructureName}{"\n"}' infrastructure cluster
Sample AWS providerSpec values

    subnet: {} (11)
    userDataSecret:
      name: master-user-data (12)
1 Specifies the Fedora CoreOS (FCOS) Amazon Machine Images (AMI) ID for the cluster. The AMI must belong to the same region as the cluster. If you want to use an AWS Marketplace image, you must complete the OKD subscription from the AWS Marketplace to obtain an AMI ID for your region.

You can omit the external (ext) load balancer parameters on private OKD clusters.
8 This parameter is configured in the failure domain, and is shown with an empty value here. If a value specified for this parameter differs from the value in the failure domain, the Operator overwrites it with the value in the failure domain.
9 Specifies the AWS region for the cluster.
10 Specifies the control plane machines security group.
11 This parameter is configured in the failure domain, and is shown with an empty value here. If a value specified for this parameter differs from the value in the failure domain, the Operator overwrites it with the value in the failure domain.
12 Specifies the control plane user data secret. Do not change this value.

Some sections of the control plane machine set CR are provider-specific. The example YAML in this section show failure domain and provider specification configurations for an Azure cluster.

Sample Azure failure domain configuration

The control plane machine set concept of a failure domain is analogous to existing Azure concept of an Azure availability zone. The ControlPlaneMachineSet CR spreads control plane machines across multiple failure domains when possible.

When configuring Azure failure domains in the control plane machine set, you must specify the availability zone name.

Sample Azure failure domain values
failureDomains:
  azure: (1)
  - zone: "1"
