Quickstart: Deploy an Azure Red Hat OpenShift cluster with an Azure Resource Manager template or Bicep file

  • Article

This article describes how to use either Azure Resource Manager template (ARM template) or Bicep to create an Azure Red Hat OpenShift cluster. You can deploy the Azure Red Hat OpenShift cluster with either PowerShell or the Azure command-line interface (Azure CLI).

An Azure Resource Manager template is a JavaScript Object Notation (JSON) file that defines the infrastructure and configuration for your project. The template uses declarative syntax. You describe your intended deployment without writing the sequence of programming commands to create the deployment.

Bicep is a domain-specific language (DSL) that uses declarative syntax to deploy Azure resources. In a Bicep file, you define the infrastructure you want to deploy to Azure, and then use that file throughout the development lifecycle to repeatedly deploy your infrastructure. Your resources are deployed in a consistent manner.

Prerequisites

Create an ARM template or Bicep file

Choose either an Azure Resource Manager template (ARM template) or an Azure Bicep file. Then, you can deploy the template using either the Azure command line (azure-cli) or PowerShell.

Create an ARM template

The following example shows how your ARM template should look when configured for your Azure RedHat OpenShift cluster.

The template defines three Azure resources:

More Azure Red Hat OpenShift template samples can be found on the Red Hat OpenShift web site.

Save the following example as azuredeploy.json:

Create a Bicep file

The following example shows how your Azure Bicep file should look when configured for your Azure Red Hat OpenShift cluster.

The Bicep file defines three Azure resources:

More Azure Red Hat OpenShift templates can be found on the Red Hat OpenShift web site.

Create the following Bicep file containing the definition for the Azure Red Hat OpenShift cluster. The following example shows how your Bicep file should look when configured.

Deploy the azuredeploy.json template

The azuredeploy.json template is used to deploy an Azure Red Hat OpenShift cluster. The following parameters are required:

Note

For the domain parameter, specify the domain prefix that will be used as part of the auto-generated DNS name for OpenShift console and API servers. This prefix is also used as part of the name of the resource group that is created to host the cluster VMs.

The following sections provide instructions using PowerShell or Azure CLI.

PowerShell steps

Perform the following steps if you're using PowerShell.

Before you begin - PowerShell

Before running the commands in this article, you might need to run Connect-AzAccount. Check to determine whether you have connectivity to Azure before proceeding. To check whether you have connectivity, run Get-AzContext to verify whether you have access to an active Azure subscription.

Note

This template uses the pull secret text that was obtained from the Red Hat OpenShift Cluster Manager website. Before proceeding, ensure you have the pull secret saved locally as pull-secret.txt.

$rhosPullSecret= Get-Content .\pull-secret.txt -Raw # the pull secret text that was obtained from the Red Hat OpenShift Cluster Manager website

Define the following parameters as environment variables - PowerShell

$resourceGroup="aro-rg"	     # the new resource group for the cluster
$location="eastus"    		 # the location of the new ARO cluster
$domain="mydomain"           # the domain prefix for the cluster  
$aroClusterName="cluster"    # the name of the cluster

Register the required resource providers - PowerShell

Register the following resource providers in your subscription: Microsoft.RedHatOpenShift, Microsoft.Compute, Microsoft.Storage and Microsoft.Authorization.

Register-AzResourceProvider -ProviderNamespace Microsoft.RedHatOpenShift
Register-AzResourceProvider -ProviderNamespace Microsoft.Compute
Register-AzResourceProvider -ProviderNamespace Microsoft.Storage
Register-AzResourceProvider -ProviderNamespace Microsoft.Authorization

Create the new resource group - PowerShell

New-AzResourceGroup -Name $resourceGroup -Location $location

Create a new service principal and assign roles - PowerShell

$suffix=Get-Random # random suffix for the Service Principal
$spDisplayName="sp-$resourceGroup-$suffix"
$azureADAppSp = New-AzADServicePrincipal -DisplayName $spDisplayName -Role Contributor

New-AzRoleAssignment -ObjectId $azureADAppSp.Id -RoleDefinitionName 'User Access Administrator' -ResourceGroupName $resourceGroup -ObjectType 'ServicePrincipal'
New-AzRoleAssignment -ObJectId $azureADAppSp.Id -RoleDefinitionName 'Contributor' -ResourceGroupName $resourceGroup -ObjectType 'ServicePrincipal'

Get the Service Principal password - PowerShell

$aadClientSecretDigest = ConvertTo-SecureString -String $azureADAppSp.PasswordCredentials.SecretText -AsPlainText -Force

Get the service principal for the OpenShift resource provider - PowerShell

$rpOpenShift =  Get-AzADServicePrincipal -DisplayName 'Azure Red Hat OpenShift RP' | Select-Object -ExpandProperty Id -Property Id -First 1

Check the parameters before deploying the cluster - PowerShell

# setup the parameters for the deployment
$templateParams = @{  
    domain = $domain
    clusterName = $aroClusterName
    location = $location
    aadClientId = $azureADAppSp.AppId
    aadObjectId = $azureADAppSp.Id
    aadClientSecret = $aadClientSecretDigest 
    rpObjectId = $rpOpenShift.Id
    pullSecret = $rhosPullSecret
}

Write-Verbose (ConvertTo-Json $templateParams) -Verbose

Deploy the Azure Red Hat OpenShift cluster using the ARM template - PowerShell

New-AzResourceGroupDeployment -ResourceGroupName $resourceGroup @templateParams `
    -TemplateFile azuredeploy.json

Connect to your cluster

To connect to your new cluster, review the steps in Connect to an Azure Red Hat OpenShift 4 cluster.

Clean up resources - PowerShell

Once you're done, run the following command to delete your resource group and all the resources you created in this article.

Remove-AzResourceGroup -Name $resourceGroup -Force

Azure CLI steps

Perform the following steps if you're using Azure CLI.

Before you begin - Azure CLI

You might need to run az login before running the commands in this article. Check whether you have connectivity to Azure before proceeding. To check whether you have connectivity, run az account list and verify that you have access to an active Azure subscription.

Note

This template will use the pull secret text that was obtained from the Red Hat OpenShift Cluster Manager website. Before proceeding make sure you have that secret saved locally as pull-secret.txt.

PULL_SECRET=$(cat pull-secret.txt)    # the pull secret text

Define the following parameters as environment variables - Azure CLI

RESOURCEGROUP=aro-rg            # the new resource group for the cluster
LOCATION=eastus                 # the location of the new cluster
DOMAIN=mydomain                 # the domain prefix for the cluster
ARO_CLUSTER_NAME=aro-cluster    # the name of the cluster

Create a service principal for the new Microsoft Entra application

  • Azure CLI
az ad sp create-for-rbac --name "sp-$RG_NAME-${RANDOM}" > app-service-principal.json

SP_CLIENT_SECRET=$(jq -r '.password' app-service-principal.json)
SP_OBJECT_ID=$(az ad sp show --id $SP_CLIENT_ID | jq -r '.id')

Assign the Contributor role to the new service principal - Azure CLI

az role assignment create \
    --role 'User Access Administrator' \
    --assignee-object-id $SP_OBJECT_ID \
    --scope $SCOPE \
    --assignee-principal-type 'ServicePrincipal'

az role assignment create \
    --role 'Contributor' \
    --assignee-object-id $SP_OBJECT_ID \
    --scope $SCOPE \
    --assignee-principal-type 'ServicePrincipal'

Get the service principal object ID for the OpenShift resource provider - Azure CLI

ARO_RP_SP_OBJECT_ID=$(az ad sp list --display-name "Azure Red Hat OpenShift RP" --query [0].id -o tsv)

Deploy the cluster - Azure CLI

az deployment group create \
    --name aroDeployment \
    --resource-group $RESOURCEGROUP \
    --template-file azuredeploy.json \
    --parameters location=$LOCATION \
    --parameters domain=$DOMAIN \
