Chapter 1. Creating machine sets
1.1. Creating a machine set on AWS
You can create a different machine set to serve a specific purpose in your OpenShift Container Platform cluster on Amazon Web Services (AWS). For example, you might create infrastructure machine sets and related machines so that you can move supporting workloads to the new machines.
1.1.1. Machine API overview
The Machine API is a combination of primary resources that are based on the upstream Cluster API project and custom OpenShift Container Platform resources.
For OpenShift Container Platform 4.5 clusters, the Machine API performs all node host provisioning management actions after the cluster installation finishes. Because of this system, OpenShift Container Platform 4.5 offers an elastic, dynamic provisioning method on top of public or private cloud infrastructure.
The two primary resources are:
- Machines
-
A fundamental unit that describes the host for a Node. A machine has a
providerSpecspecification, which describes the types of compute nodes that are offered for different cloud platforms. For example, a machine type for a worker node on Amazon Web Services (AWS) might define a specific machine type and required metadata. - Machine sets
-
MachineSetresources are groups of machines. Machine sets are to machines as replica sets are to pods. If you need more machines or must scale them down, you change the replicas field on the machine set to meet your compute need.
The following custom resources add more capabilities to your cluster:
- Machine autoscaler
-
The
MachineAutoscalerresource automatically scales machines in a cloud. You can set the minimum and maximum scaling boundaries for nodes in a specified machine set, and the machine autoscaler maintains that range of nodes. TheMachineAutoscalerobject takes effect after aClusterAutoscalerobject exists. BothClusterAutoscalerandMachineAutoscalerresources are made available by theClusterAutoscalerOperatorobject. - Cluster autoscaler
- This resource is based on the upstream cluster autoscaler project. In the OpenShift Container Platform implementation, it is integrated with the Machine API by extending the machine set API. You can set cluster-wide scaling limits for resources such as cores, nodes, memory, GPU, and so on. You can set the priority so that the cluster prioritizes pods so that new nodes are not brought online for less important pods. You can also set the scaling policy so that you can scale up nodes but not scale them down.
- Machine health check
-
The
MachineHealthCheckresource detects when a machine is unhealthy, deletes it, and, on supported platforms, makes a new machine.
In OpenShift Container Platform version 3.11, you could not roll out a multi-zone architecture easily because the cluster did not manage machine provisioning. Beginning with OpenShift Container Platform version 4.1, this process is easier. Each machine set is scoped to a single zone, so the installation program sends out machine sets across availability zones on your behalf. And then because your compute is dynamic, and in the face of a zone failure, you always have a zone for when you must rebalance your machines. The autoscaler provides best-effort balancing over the life of a cluster.
1.1.2. Sample YAML for a machine set custom resource on AWS
This sample YAML defines a machine set that runs in the us-east-1a Amazon Web Services (AWS) zone and creates nodes that are labeled with node-role.kubernetes.io/<role>: "".
In this sample, <infrastructureID> is the infrastructure ID label that is based on the cluster ID that you set when you provisioned the cluster, and <role> is the node label to add.

- Specify 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 -n openshift-machine-api \ -o jsonpath='{.spec.template.spec.providerSpec.value.ami.id}{"\n"}' \ get machineset/<infrastructureID>-worker-us-east-1a - 2 4 8
- Specify the infrastructure ID, node label, and zone.
- 6 7 9
- Specify the node label to add.
- 10
- Specify a valid Red Hat Enterprise Linux CoreOS (RHCOS) AMI for your AWS zone for your OpenShift Container Platform nodes.
1.1.3. Creating a machine set
In addition to the ones created by the installation program, you can create your own machine sets to dynamically manage the machine compute resources for specific workloads of your choice.
Prerequisites
- Deploy an OpenShift Container Platform cluster.
-
Install the OpenShift CLI (
oc). -
Log in to
ocas a user withcluster-adminpermission.
Procedure
Create a new YAML file that contains the machine set custom resource (CR) sample and is named
<file_name>.yaml.Ensure that you set the
<clusterID>and<role>parameter values.If you are not sure about which value to set for a specific field, you can check an existing machine set from your cluster.
$ oc get machinesets -n openshift-machine-api
Example output
NAME DESIRED CURRENT READY AVAILABLE AGE agl030519-vplxk-worker-us-east-1a 1 1 1 1 55m agl030519-vplxk-worker-us-east-1b 1 1 1 1 55m agl030519-vplxk-worker-us-east-1c 1 1 1 1 55m agl030519-vplxk-worker-us-east-1d 0 0 55m agl030519-vplxk-worker-us-east-1e 0 0 55m agl030519-vplxk-worker-us-east-1f 0 0 55m
Check values of a specific machine set:
$ oc get machineset <machineset_name> -n \ openshift-machine-api -o yamlExample output
... template: metadata: labels: machine.openshift.io/cluster-api-cluster: agl030519-vplxk 1 machine.openshift.io/cluster-api-machine-role: worker 2 machine.openshift.io/cluster-api-machine-type: worker machine.openshift.io/cluster-api-machineset: agl030519-vplxk-worker-us-east-1a
Create the new
MachineSetCR:$ oc create -f <file_name>.yaml
View the list of machine sets:
$ oc get machineset -n openshift-machine-api

When the new machine set is available, the
DESIREDandCURRENTvalues match. If the machine set is not available, wait a few minutes and run the command again.
Next steps
If you need machine sets in other availability zones, repeat this process to create more machine sets.
1.1.4. Machine sets that deploy machines as Spot Instances
You can save on costs by creating a machine set running on AWS that deploys machines as non-guaranteed Spot Instances. Spot Instances use available AWS EC2 capacity and are less expensive than On-Demand Instances. You can use Spot Instances for workloads that can tolerate interruptions, such as batch or stateless, horizontally scalable workloads.
It is strongly recommended that control plane machines are not created on Spot Instances due to the increased likelihood of the instance being terminated. Manual intervention is required to replace a terminated control plane node.
AWS EC2 can terminate a Spot Instance at any time. AWS gives a two-minute warning to the user when an interruption occurs. OpenShift Container Platform begins to remove the workloads from the affected instances when AWS issues the termination warning.
Interruptions can occur when using Spot Instances for the following reasons:
- The instance price exceeds your maximum price.
- The demand for Spot Instances increases.
- The supply of Spot Instances decreases.
When AWS terminates an instance, a termination handler running on the Spot Instance node deletes the machine resource. To satisfy the machine set replicas quantity, the machine set creates a machine that requests a Spot Instance.
1.1.5. Creating Spot Instances by using machine sets
You can launch a Spot Instance on AWS by adding spotMarketOptions to your machine set YAML file.
Procedure
Add the following line under the
providerSpecfield:providerSpec: value: spotMarketOptions: {}
Optional: You can set the spotMarketOptions.maxPrice field to limit the cost of the Spot Instance. For example, you can set maxPrice: '2.50'.
If the maxPrice is set, this value is used as the hourly maximum spot price. If it is not set, the maximum price defaults to charge up to the On-Demand Instance price.
It is strongly recommended to use the default On-Demand price as the maxPrice value and to not set the maximum price for Spot Instances.
1.2. Creating a machine set on Azure
You can create a different machine set to serve a specific purpose in your OpenShift Container Platform cluster on Microsoft Azure. For example, you might create infrastructure machine sets and related machines so that you can move supporting workloads to the new machines.

MachineAutoscalerresource automatically scales machines in a cloud. You can set the minimum and maximum scaling boundaries for nodes in a specified machine set, and the machine autoscaler maintains that range of nodes. TheMachineAutoscalerobject takes effect after aClusterAutoscalerobject exists. BothClusterAutoscalerandMachineAutoscalerresources are made available by theClusterAutoscalerOperatorobject. - Cluster autoscaler
- This resource is based on the upstream cluster autoscaler project. In the OpenShift Container Platform implementation, it is integrated with the Machine API by extending the machine set API. You can set cluster-wide scaling limits for resources such as cores, nodes, memory, GPU, and so on. You can set the priority so that the cluster prioritizes pods so that new nodes are not brought online for less important pods. You can also set the scaling policy so that you can scale up nodes but not scale them down.
- Machine health check
-
The
MachineHealthCheckresource detects when a machine is unhealthy, deletes it, and, on supported platforms, makes a new machine.
In OpenShift Container Platform version 3.11, you could not roll out a multi-zone architecture easily because the cluster did not manage machine provisioning. Beginning with OpenShift Container Platform version 4.1, this process is easier. Each machine set is scoped to a single zone, so the installation program sends out machine sets across availability zones on your behalf. And then because your compute is dynamic, and in the face of a zone failure, you always have a zone for when you must rebalance your machines. The autoscaler provides best-effort balancing over the life of a cluster.
1.4.2. Sample YAML for a machine set custom resource on RHOSP
This sample YAML defines a machine set that runs on Red Hat OpenStack Platform (RHOSP) and creates nodes that are labeled with node-role.kubernetes.io/<role>: "".
In this sample, infrastructure_ID is the infrastructure ID label that is based on the cluster ID that you set when you provisioned the cluster, and node_role is the node label to add.

1.4.3. Creating a machine set
In addition to the ones created by the installation program, you can create your own machine sets to dynamically manage the machine compute resources for specific workloads of your choice.
Prerequisites
- Deploy an OpenShift Container Platform cluster.
-
Install the OpenShift CLI (
oc). -
Log in to
ocas a user withcluster-adminpermission.
Procedure
Create a new YAML file that contains the machine set custom resource (CR) sample and is named
<file_name>.yaml.Ensure that you set the
<clusterID>and<role>parameter values.If you are not sure about which value to set for a specific field, you can check an existing machine set from your cluster.
$ oc get machinesets -n openshift-machine-api

1.5. Creating a machine set on RHV
You can create a different machine set to serve a specific purpose in your OpenShift Container Platform cluster on Red Hat Virtualization (RHV). For example, you might create infrastructure machine sets and related machines so that you can move supporting workloads to the new machines.
1.5.1. Machine API overview
The Machine API is a combination of primary resources that are based on the upstream Cluster API project and custom OpenShift Container Platform resources.
For OpenShift Container Platform 4.5 clusters, the Machine API performs all node host provisioning management actions after the cluster installation finishes. Because of this system, OpenShift Container Platform 4.5 offers an elastic, dynamic provisioning method on top of public or private cloud infrastructure.
The two primary resources are:
- Machines
-
A fundamental unit that describes the host for a Node. A machine has a
providerSpecspecification, which describes the types of compute nodes that are offered for different cloud platforms. For example, a machine type for a worker node on Amazon Web Services (AWS) might define a specific machine type and required metadata. - Machine sets
-
MachineSetresources are groups of machines. Machine sets are to machines as replica sets are to pods. If you need more machines or must scale them down, you change the replicas field on the machine set to meet your compute need.
The following custom resources add more capabilities to your cluster:
- Machine autoscaler
-
The
MachineAutoscalerresource automatically scales machines in a cloud. You can set the minimum and maximum scaling boundaries for nodes in a specified machine set, and the machine autoscaler maintains that range of nodes.

- Specify the RHV VM template to use to create the machine.
- 16
- Optional: Specify the VM instance type. If you include this parameter, you do not need to specify the hardware parameters of the VM including CPU and memory because this parameter overrides all hardware parameters.
- 17
- Optional: The CPU field contains the CPU’s configuration, including sockets, cores, and threads.
- 18
- Optional: Specify the number of sockets for a VM.
- 19
- Optional: Specify the number of cores per socket.
- 20
- Optional: Specify the number of threads per core.

- Optional: Root disk of the node.
- 23
- Optional: Specify the size of the bootable disk in GiB.

- Specify the name of the secret that holds the RHV credentials.
- 27
- Optional: Specify the workload type for which the instance is optimized. This value affects the

1.6.3. Creating a machine set
In addition to the ones created by the installation program, you can create your own machine sets to dynamically manage the machine compute resources for specific workloads of your choice.
Prerequisites
- Deploy an OpenShift Container Platform cluster.
-
Install the OpenShift CLI (
oc). -
Log in to
ocas a user withcluster-adminpermission. - Create a tag inside your vCenter instance based on the cluster API name. This tag is utilized by the machine set to associate the OpenShift Container Platform nodes to the provisioned virtual machines (VM). For directions on creating tags in vCenter, see the VMware documentation for vSphere Tags and Attributes.
- Have the necessary permissions to deploy VMs in your vCenter instance and have the required access to the datastore specified.
Procedure
Create a new YAML file that contains the machine set custom resource (CR) sample and is named
<file_name>.yaml.Ensure that you set the
<clusterID>and<role>parameter values.If you are not sure about which value to set for a specific field, you can check an existing machine set from your cluster.
