= Configuring host groups for a VMware vCenter
|
|
|
|
:FeatureName: OpenShift zones support for vSphere host groups
|
|
include::snippets/technology-preview.adoc[]
|
|
|
|
You can modify the default installation configuration file to deploy an {product-title} cluster on a {vmw-first} stretched cluster, where ESXi hosts are grouped into host groups by physical location.
|
|
|
|
The default `install-config.yaml` file configuration from previous releases of {product-title} is deprecated. Though you can still use it, the {product-title} installer will display a warning message that indicates the use of deprecated fields in the configuration file.
|
|
|
|
.Prerequisites
|
|
|
|
* You have an existing `install-config.yaml` installation configuration file.
|
|
* You have arranged your ESXi hosts into host groups.
|
|
* You have granted the `Host.Inventory.EditCluster` privilege on the {vmw-short} vCenter cluster object.
|
|
* You have downloaded and installed the `govc` command line tool. Instructions can be found on the VMware documentation website. Note that `govc` is an open-source tool that is not maintained by the Red{nbsp}Hat support team.
|
|
* You have enabled the `TechPreviewNoUpgrade` feature set. For more information, see "Enabling features using feature gates".

[IMPORTANT]
|
|
====
|
|
To enable host group support, you must define multiple failure domains for your {product-title} cluster.

|
|
|
.Procedure
|
|
|
|
. Create the `openshift-region` and `openshift-zone` vCenter tag categories by running the following commands:
|
|
+
|
|
[IMPORTANT]
|
|
====
|
|
If you specify different names for the `openshift-region` and `openshift-zone` vCenter tag categories, the installation of the {product-title} cluster fails.

|
. Create a zone tag for each host group by entering the following command as needed:

|
|
----
|
|
$ govc tags.create -c <zone_tag_category> <zone_tag>

----
|
|
$ govc tags.attach -c <region_tag_category> <region_tag_1> /<datacenter_1>/host/<cluster_1>
|
|
----
|
|
|
|
. Use zone tags to associate each ESXi host with its host group, by entering the following command for each ESXi host:

|
[source,terminal]
|
|
----
|
|
$ govc tags.attach -c <zone_tag_category> <zone_tag_for_host_group_1> /<datacenter_1>/host/<cluster_1>/<esxi_host_in_host_group_1>
|
|
----
|
|
|
|
. Change to the directory that contains the installation program and initialize the cluster deployment according to your chosen installation requirements.
