SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill includes scripts (resource) and references (resource) components.

What problem does it solve?

This Skill simplifies the creation and destruction of temporary OpenShift clusters on AWS using HyperShift, essential for testing Kagenti in a real Kubernetes environment.

Core Features & Use Cases

Cluster Provisioning: Spin up managed OpenShift clusters on AWS with customizable configurations (instance types, replica counts, OCP versions).
Cluster Teardown: Reliably destroy created clusters to manage AWS resources efficiently.
Use Case: A developer needs to test a new Kagenti deployment on an OpenShift cluster. They use this Skill to quickly create a cluster, deploy Kagenti, run tests, and then destroy the cluster, avoiding manual cloud infrastructure management.

Quick Start

Use the hypershift:cluster skill to create a new cluster with the default settings.

FAQPage Schema

How do I create ephemeral OpenShift clusters on AWS for testing?▼

You can create ephemeral OpenShift clusters on AWS by orchestrating HyperShift to provision resources with custom worker node configurations, instance types, and OCP versions. This simplifies spinning up temporary clusters for testing Kagenti in real Kubernetes environments.

Can I customize worker node instance types and OpenShift versions when provisioning on AWS?▼

Yes, you can customize worker node instance types, replica counts, and OpenShift versions during cluster provisioning. The orchestration supports custom configurations to match your specific testing requirements for Kagenti deployments.

What is the best way to manage the lifecycle of temporary HyperShift clusters?▼

Managing the lifecycle of temporary HyperShift clusters involves orchestrating both creation and destruction processes. This approach handles AWS resource provisioning and teardown reliably, ensuring efficient management of temporary OpenShift testing environments.

How do I destroy OpenShift clusters on AWS to manage resources efficiently?▼

You can destroy OpenShift clusters on AWS using the cluster teardown functionality. Reliably destroying created clusters ensures efficient AWS resource management by removing temporary infrastructure after testing Kagenti deployments is complete.

Do I need AWS resources configured before provisioning HyperShift clusters?▼

Yes, you need AWS resources configured before provisioning HyperShift clusters. The cluster provisioning process integrates directly with AWS for resource allocation and management, requiring proper cloud infrastructure access to create and destroy OpenShift environments.

Why use ephemeral OpenShift clusters instead of persistent ones for Kagenti testing?▼

Using ephemeral OpenShift clusters avoids manual cloud infrastructure management during testing. You can quickly create a cluster, deploy Kagenti, run tests, and destroy the cluster, ensuring clean environments without persistent AWS resource overhead.
