Chapter 2. Configuring an AWS account
Before you can install OpenShift Container Platform, you must configure an Amazon Web Services (AWS) account.
2.1. Configuring Route 53
To install OpenShift Container Platform, the Amazon Web Services (AWS) account you use must have a dedicated public hosted zone in your Route 53 service. This zone must be authoritative for the domain. The Route 53 service provides cluster DNS resolution and name lookup for external connections to the cluster.
Procedure
Identify your domain, or subdomain, and registrar. You can transfer an existing domain and registrar or obtain a new one through AWS or another source.
NoteIf you purchase a new domain through AWS, it takes time for the relevant DNS changes to propagate. For more information about purchasing domains through AWS, see Registering Domain Names Using Amazon Route 53 in the AWS documentation.
- If you are using an existing domain and registrar, migrate its DNS to AWS. See Making Amazon Route 53 the DNS Service for an Existing Domain in the AWS documentation.
Create a public hosted zone for your domain or subdomain. See Creating a Public Hosted Zone in the AWS documentation.
Use an appropriate root domain, such as
openshiftcorp.com
, or subdomain, such asclusters.openshiftcorp.com
.- Extract the new authoritative name servers from the hosted zone records. See Getting the Name Servers for a Public Hosted Zone in the AWS documentation.
- Update the registrar records for the AWS Route 53 name servers that your domain uses. For example, if you registered your domain to a Route 53 service in a different accounts, see the following topic in the AWS documentation: Adding or Changing Name Servers or Glue Records.
- If you are using a subdomain, add its delegation records to the parent domain. This gives Amazon Route 53 responsibility for the subdomain. Follow the delegation procedure outlined by the DNS provider of the parent domain. See Creating a subdomain that uses Amazon Route 53 as the DNS service without migrating the parent domain in the AWS documentation for an example high level procedure.
2.1.1. Ingress Operator endpoint configuration for AWS Route 53
If you install in either Amazon Web Services (AWS) GovCloud (US) US-West or US-East region, the Ingress Operator uses us-gov-west-1
region for Route53 and tagging API clients.
The Ingress Operator uses https://tagging.us-gov-west-1.amazonaws.com
as the tagging API endpoint if a tagging custom endpoint is configured that includes the string 'us-gov-east-1'.
For more information on AWS GovCloud (US) endpoints, see the Service Endpoints in the AWS documentation about GovCloud (US).
Private, disconnected installations are not supported for AWS GovCloud when you install in the us-gov-east-1
region.
Example Route 53 configuration
platform: aws: region: us-gov-west-1 serviceEndpoints: - name: ec2 url: https://ec2.us-gov-west-1.amazonaws.com - name: elasticloadbalancing url: https://elasticloadbalancing.us-gov-west-1.amazonaws.com - name: route53 url: https://route53.us-gov.amazonaws.com 1 - name: tagging url: https://tagging.us-gov-west-1.amazonaws.com 2
- 1
- Route 53 defaults to
https://route53.us-gov.amazonaws.com
for both AWS GovCloud (US) regions. - 2
- Only the US-West region has endpoints for tagging. Omit this parameter if your cluster is in another region.
2.2. AWS account limits
The OpenShift Container Platform cluster uses a number of Amazon Web Services (AWS) components, and the default Service Limits affect your ability to install OpenShift Container Platform clusters. If you use certain cluster configurations, deploy your cluster in certain AWS regions, or run multiple clusters from your account, you might need to request additional resources for your AWS account.
The following table summarizes the AWS components whose limits can impact your ability to install and run OpenShift Container Platform clusters.
Component | Number of clusters available by default | Default AWS limit | Description |
---|---|---|---|
Instance Limits | Varies | Varies | By default, each cluster creates the following instances:
These instance type counts are within a new account’s default limit. To deploy more worker nodes, enable autoscaling, deploy large workloads, or use a different instance type, review your account limits to ensure that your cluster can deploy the machines that you need.
In most regions, the worker machines use an |
Elastic IPs (EIPs) | 0 to 1 | 5 EIPs per account | To provision the cluster in a highly available configuration, the installation program creates a public and private subnet for each availability zone within a region. Each private subnet requires a NAT Gateway, and each NAT gateway requires a separate elastic IP. Review the AWS region map to determine how many availability zones are in each region. To take advantage of the default high availability, install the cluster in a region with at least three availability zones. To install a cluster in a region with more than five availability zones, you must increase the EIP limit. Important
To use the |
Virtual Private Clouds (VPCs) | 5 | 5 VPCs per region | Each cluster creates its own VPC. |
Elastic Load Balancing (ELB/NLB) | 3 | 20 per region |
By default, each cluster creates internal and external network load balancers for the master API server and a single Classic Load Balancer for the router. Deploying more Kubernetes |
NAT Gateways | 5 | 5 per availability zone | The cluster deploys one NAT gateway in each availability zone. |
Elastic Network Interfaces (ENIs) | At least 12 | 350 per region |
The default installation creates 21 ENIs and an ENI for each availability zone in your region. For example, the Additional ENIs are created for additional machines and ELB load balancers that are created by cluster usage and deployed workloads. |
VPC Gateway | 20 | 20 per account | Each cluster creates a single VPC Gateway for S3 access. |
S3 buckets | 99 | 100 buckets per account | Because the installation process creates a temporary bucket and the registry component in each cluster creates a bucket, you can create only 99 OpenShift Container Platform clusters per AWS account. |
Security Groups | 250 | 2,500 per account | Each cluster creates 10 distinct security groups. |
2.3. Required AWS permissions for the IAM user
Your IAM user must have the permission tag:GetResources
in the region us-east-1
to delete the base cluster resources. As part of the AWS API requirement, the OpenShift Container Platform installation program performs various actions in this region.
When you attach the AdministratorAccess
policy to the IAM user that you create in Amazon Web Services (AWS), you grant that user all of the required permissions. To deploy all components of an OpenShift Container Platform cluster, the IAM user requires the following permissions:

2.4. Creating an IAM user
Each Amazon Web Services (AWS) account contains a root user account that is based on the email address you used to create the account. This is a highly-privileged account, and it is recommended to use it for only initial account and billing configuration, creating an initial set of users, and securing the account.
Before you install OpenShift Container Platform, create a secondary IAM administrative user. As you complete the Creating an IAM User in Your AWS Account procedure in the AWS documentation, set the following options:
Procedure
-
Specify the IAM user name and select
Programmatic access
. Attach the
AdministratorAccess
policy to ensure that the account has sufficient permission to create the cluster. This policy provides the cluster with the ability to grant credentials to each OpenShift Container Platform component. The cluster grants the components only the credentials that they require.NoteWhile it is possible to create a policy that grants the all of the required AWS permissions and attach it to the user, this is not the preferred option. The cluster will not have the ability to grant additional credentials to individual components, so the same credentials are used by all components.
- Optional: Add metadata to the user by attaching tags.
-
Confirm that the user name that you specified is granted the
AdministratorAccess
policy. Record the access key ID and secret access key values. You must use these values when you configure your local machine to run the installation program.
ImportantYou cannot use a temporary session token that you generated while using a multi-factor authentication device to authenticate to AWS when you deploy a cluster. The cluster continues to use your current AWS credentials to create AWS resources for the entire life of the cluster, so you must use key-based, long-lived credentials.
Additional resources
-
See Manually creating IAM for AWS for steps to set the Cloud Credential Operator (CCO) to manual mode prior to installation. Use this mode in environments where the cloud identity and access management (IAM) APIs are not reachable, or if you prefer not to store an administrator-level credential secret in the cluster
kube-system
project.
2.5. IAM Policies and AWS authentication
By default, the installation program creates instance profiles for the bootstrap, control plane, and compute instances with the necessary permissions for the cluster to operate.
However, you can create your own IAM roles and specify them as part of the installation process. You might need to specify your own roles to deploy the cluster or to manage the cluster after installation. For example:
- Your organization’s security policies require that you use a more restrictive set of permissions to install the cluster.
- After the installation, the cluster is configured with an Operator that requires access to additional services.
If you choose to specify your own IAM roles, you can take the following steps:
- Begin with the default policies and adapt as required. For more information, see "Default permissions for IAM instance profiles".
- Use the AWS Identity and Access Management Access Analyzer (IAM Access Analyzer) to create a policy template that is based on the cluster’s activity. For more information see, "Using AWS IAM Analyzer to create policy templates".
2.5.1. Default permissions for IAM instance profiles
By default, the installation program creates IAM instance profiles for the bootstrap, control plane and worker instances with the necessary permissions for the cluster to operate.
The following lists specify the default permissions for control plane and compute machines:

2.5.2. Specifying an existing IAM role
Instead of allowing the installation program to create IAM instance profiles with the default permissions, you can use the install-config.yaml
file to specify an existing IAM role for control plane and compute instances.
Prerequisites
-
You have an existing
install-config.yaml
file.
Procedure
Update
compute.platform.aws.iamRole
with an existing role for the compute machines.Sample
install-config.yaml
file with an IAM role for compute instancescompute: - hyperthreading: Enabled name: worker platform: aws: iamRole: ExampleRole
Update
controlPlane.platform.aws.iamRole
with an existing role for the control plane machines.Sample
install-config.yaml
file with an IAM role for control plane instancescontrolPlane: hyperthreading: Enabled name: master platform: aws: iamRole: ExampleRole
- Save the file and reference it when installing the OpenShift Container Platform cluster.
To change or update an IAM account after the cluster has been installed, see RHOCP 4 AWS cloud-credentials access key is expired (Red Hat Knowledgebase).
Additional resources
2.5.3. Using AWS IAM Analyzer to create policy templates
The minimal set of permissions that the control plane and compute instance profiles require depends on how the cluster is configured for its daily operation.
One way to determine which permissions the cluster instances require is to use the AWS Identity and Access Management Access Analyzer (IAM Access Analyzer) to create a policy template:
- A policy template contains the permissions the cluster has used over a specified period of time.
- You can then use the template to create policies with fine-grained permissions.
Procedure
The overall process could be:
- Ensure that CloudTrail is enabled. CloudTrail records all of the actions and events in your AWS account, including the API calls that are required to create a policy template. For more information, see the AWS documentation for working with CloudTrail.
- Create an instance profile for control plane instances and an instance profile for compute instances. Be sure to assign each role a permissive policy, such as PowerUserAccess. For more information, see the AWS documentation for creating instance profile roles.
- Install the cluster in a development environment and configure it as required. Be sure to deploy all of applications the cluster will host in a production environment.
- Test the cluster thoroughly. Testing the cluster ensures that all of the required API calls are logged.
- Use the IAM Access Analyzer to create a policy template for each instance profile. For more information, see the AWS documentation for generating policies based on the CloudTrail logs.
- Create and add a fine-grained policy to each instance profile.
- Remove the permissive policy from each instance profile.
- Deploy a production cluster using the existing instance profiles with the new policies.
You can add IAM Conditions to your policy to make it more restrictive and compliant with your organization security requirements.
2.6. Supported AWS Marketplace regions
