What problem does it solve?
OpenShift on IBM Cloud (ROKS) cluster management can be complex, involving lifecycle, worker pools, networking, and multiple IBM Cloud integrations. This Skill centralizes instructions and best practices to streamline cluster operations and reduce risk.
Core Features & Use Cases
- Cluster lifecycle management: create, update, scale, and delete ROks clusters across VPC and Classic deployments.
- Worker pools and node management: define, resize, and rebalance worker pools with minimal impact to workloads.
- OpenShift and IBM Cloud integrations: integrate with IBM Cloud Registry (ICR), Secrets Manager, and Monitoring for secure, observable clusters.
- CLI-driven workflows: utilize ibmcloud ks and oc commands to manage clusters, routes, and deployments.
Quick Start
Install the IBM Cloud CLI, authenticate, and follow the workflow to create and manage a ROks cluster.
