= Creating the installation configuration file
You can customize your installation of {product-title} on a compatible cloud.
.Prerequisites
* Obtain the {product-title} installer and the access token for your cluster.
* Obtain configuration details for your cloud.
.Procedure
. Obtain the `install-config.yaml` file.
.. Run the following command:
+
----
$ ./openshift-install create install-config --dir=<installation-directory> <1>
----
<1> Specify the directory name to store the files that the installation program
creates.
.. At the prompts, provide the configuration details for your cloud:
... Optionally, select an SSH key to use to access your cluster machines.
... Select AWS as the platform to target.
... Select the AWS region to deploy the cluster to.
... Select the base domain for the Route53 service that you configured for your cluster.
... Enter a descriptive name for your cluster.
... Paste the pull secret that you obtained from
link:https://cloud.openshift.com/clusters/install[the OpenShift start page].
. Modify the `install-config.yaml` file. You can find more information about
the available parameters in the *Installation configuration parameters* section
and in the
link:https://godoc.org/github.com/openshift/installer/pkg/types#InstallConfig[Go documentation].
. Optionally, back up the `install-config.yaml` file so that you can use
it to install multiple clusters.

[IMPORTANT]
====
The `install-config.yaml` file is deleted during the installation process. If
you want to reuse the file, you must back it up now.
