6.6.5. Creating the new control plane node

Procedure

1. Edit the bmh_affected.yaml file that you previously saved:

   1. Remove the following metadata items from the file:

      • creationTimestamp
      • generation
      • resourceVersion
      • uid
   2. Remove the status section of the file.

   The resulting file should resemble the following example:

   Example bmh_affected.yaml file

   apiVersion: metal3.io/v1alpha1
   kind: BareMetalHost
   metadata:
     labels:
       installer.openshift.io/role: control-plane
     name: openshift-control-plane-2
     namespace: openshift-machine-api
   spec:
     automatedCleaningMode: disabled
     bmc:
       address:
       credentialsName:
       disableCertificateVerification: true
     bootMACAddress: ab:cd:ef:ab:cd:ef
     bootMode: UEFI
     externallyProvisioned: true
     online: true
     rootDeviceHints:
       deviceName: /dev/disk/by-path/pci-0000:04:00.0-nvme-1
     userData:
       name: master-user-data-managed
       namespace: openshift-machine-api

2. Create the BareMetalHost object using the bmh_affected.yaml file by running the following command:

   $ oc create -f bmh_affected.yaml

   The following warning is expected upon creation of the BareMetalHost object:

   Warning: metadata.finalizers: "baremetalhost.metal3.io": prefer a domain-qualified finalizer name to avoid accidental conflicts with other finalizer writers

3. Extract the control plane ignition secret by running the following command:

   $ oc extract secret/master-user-data-managed \
       -n openshift-machine-api \
       --keys=userData \
       --to=- \
       | sed '/^userData/d' > new_controlplane.ign

   This command also removes the starting userData line of the ignition secret.

4. Create an Nmstate YAML file titled new_controlplane_nmstate.yaml for the new node’s network configuration, using the following example for reference:

   Example Nmstate YAML file

   interfaces:
     - name: eno1
       type: ethernet
       state: up
       mac-address: "ab:cd:ef:01:02:03"
       ipv4:
         enabled: true
         address:
           - ip: 192.168.20.11
             prefix-length: 24
         dhcp: false
       ipv6:
         enabled: false
   dns-resolver:
     config:
       search:
         - iso.sterling.home
       server:
         - 192.168.20.8
   routes:
     config:
     - destination: 0.0.0.0/0
       metric: 100
       next-hop-address: 192.168.20.1
       next-hop-interface: eno1
       table-id: 254

   注意

   If you installed your cluster using the Agent-based Installer, you can use the failed node’s networkConfig section in the agent-config.yaml file from the original cluster deployment as a starting point for the new control plane node’s Nmstate file. For example, the following command extracts the networkConfig section for the first control plane node:

   $ cat agent-config-iso.yaml | yq .hosts[0].networkConfig > new_controlplane_nmstate.yaml

5. Create the customized Red Hat Enterprise Linux CoreOS (RHCOS) live ISO by running the following command:

   $ coreos-installer iso customize rhcos-live.86_64.iso \
       --dest-ignition new_controlplane.ign \
       --network-nmstate new_controlplane_nmstate.yaml \
       --dest-device /dev/disk/by-path/<device_path> \
       -f

   Replace <device_path> with the path to the target device on which the ISO will be generated.

6. Boot the new control plane node with the customized RHCOS live ISO.
7. Approve the Certificate Signing Requests (CSR) to join the new node to the cluster.
