4.2. Configuring a Keystone identity provider
Configure the keystone
identity provider to integrate your OpenShift Container Platform cluster with Keystone to enable shared authentication with an OpenStack Keystone v3 server configured to store users in an internal database. This configuration allows users to log in to OpenShift Container Platform with their Keystone credentials.
Keystone is an OpenStack project that provides identity, token, catalog, and policy services.
You can configure the integration with Keystone so that the new OpenShift Container Platform users are based on either the Keystone user names or unique Keystone IDs. With both methods, users log in by entering their Keystone user name and password. Basing the OpenShift Container Platform users off of the Keystone ID is more secure. If you delete a Keystone user and create a new Keystone user with that user name, the new user might have access to the old user’s resources.
4.2.1. About identity providers in OpenShift Container Platform
By default, only a kubeadmin
user exists on your cluster. To specify an identity provider, you must create a custom resource (CR) that describes that identity provider and add it to the cluster.
OpenShift Container Platform user names containing /
, :
, and %
are not supported.
4.2.2. Creating the secret
Identity providers use OpenShift Container Platform Secret
objects in the openshift-config
namespace to contain the client secret, client certificates, and keys.
You can define an OpenShift Container Platform
Secret
object containing a string by using the following command.$ oc create secret generic <secret_name> --from-literal=clientSecret=<secret> -n openshift-config
You can define an OpenShift Container Platform
Secret
object containing the contents of a file, such as a certificate file, by using the following command.$ oc create secret generic <secret_name> --from-file=/path/to/file -n openshift-config
4.2.3. Creating a config map
Identity providers use OpenShift Container Platform ConfigMap
objects in the openshift-config
namespace to contain the certificate authority bundle. These are primarily used to contain certificate bundles needed by the identity provider.
Procedure
Define an OpenShift Container Platform
ConfigMap
object containing the certificate authority by using the following command. The certificate authority must be stored in theca.crt
key of theConfigMap
object.$ oc create configmap ca-config-map --from-file=ca.crt=/path/to/ca -n openshift-config
4.2.4. Sample Keystone CR
The following custom resource (CR) shows the parameters and acceptable values for a Keystone identity provider.
Keystone CR
apiVersion: config.openshift.io/v1 kind: OAuth metadata: name: cluster spec: identityProviders: - name: keystoneidp 1 mappingMethod: claim 2 type: Keystone keystone: domainName: default 3 url: https://keystone.example.com:5000 4 ca: 5 name: ca-config-map tlsClientCert: 6 name: client-cert-secret tlsClientKey: 7 name: client-key-secret
- 1
- This provider name is prefixed to provider user names to form an identity name.
- 2
- Controls how mappings are established between this provider’s identities and
User
objects. - 3
- Keystone domain name. In Keystone, usernames are domain-specific. Only a single domain is supported.
- 4
- The URL to use to connect to the Keystone server (required). This must use https.
- 5
- Optional: Reference to an OpenShift Container Platform
ConfigMap
object containing the PEM-encoded certificate authority bundle to use in validating server certificates for the configured URL. - 6
- Optional: Reference to an OpenShift Container Platform
Secret
object containing the client certificate to present when making requests to the configured URL. - 7
- Reference to an OpenShift Container Platform
Secret
object containing the key for the client certificate. Required iftlsClientCert
is specified.
Additional resources

See Identity provider parameters for information on parameters, such as
mappingMethod
, that are common to all identity providers.
4.2.5. Adding an identity provider to your clusters
After you install your cluster, add an identity provider to it so your users can authenticate.
Prerequisites
- Create an OpenShift Container Platform cluster.
- Create the custom resource (CR) for your identity providers.
- You must be logged in as an administrator.
Procedure
Apply the defined CR:
$ oc apply -f </path/to/CR>
注意If a CR does not exist,
oc apply
creates a new CR and might trigger the following warning:Warning: oc apply should be used on resources created by either oc create --save-config or oc apply
. In this case you can safely ignore this warning.Log in to the cluster as a user from your identity provider, entering the password when prompted.
$ oc login -u <username>
Confirm that the user logged in successfully, and display the user name.
$ oc whoami
