Procedure

1. Generate a kubeconfig file for the hosted cluster by running the following command:

   $ hcp create kubeconfig --name $CLUSTER_NAME > $CLUSTER_NAME-kubeconfig

2. Create a kubeconfig resource environment variable by running the following command:

   $ export KUBECONFIG=$CLUSTER_NAME-kubeconfig

3. Label each worker node to indicate SR-IOV capability by running the following command:

   $ oc label node <worker_node_name> feature.node.kubernetes.io/network-sriov.capable=true

   where:

   <worker_node_name>

   Specifies the name of a worker node in the hosted cluster.
