How to Install Openshift on EndeavourOS Latest

Introduction

Openshift is a container application platform that allows you to develop, deploy, and manage applications in a scalable, cloud environment. EndeavourOS is a rolling release Linux distribution based on Arch Linux. In this tutorial, we will show you how to install Openshift on EndeavourOS Latest.

Prerequisites

Before we begin, make sure you have a few things:

  • A running EndeavourOS Latest installation.
  • Root access to the server.
  • A stable internet connection.

Step 1 - Install Required Packages

The first step is to install all the necessary packages required to install Openshift. To do this, run the following commands:

sudo pacman -Syu
sudo pacman -S wget git ansible

Step 2 - Download the Openshift Installer

Now that we have all the necessary packages installed, we need to download the Openshift installer. To download the installer, run the following commands:

wget https://github.com/openshift/openshift-ansible/archive/release-3.11.zip
unzip release-3.11.zip

Step 3 - Configure the Inventory File

Next, we need to configure the inventory file. The inventory file is used to define the hosts on which we want to install Openshift. To configure the inventory file, run the following commands:

cd openshift-ansible-release-3.11
cp inventory/hosts.example inventory/hosts

Now, edit the inventory file using your favorite text editor and specify the IP addresses of the servers on which you want to install Openshift. You will need to specify the IP addresses for the following server types:

  • Master servers
  • Infrastructure servers
  • Application nodes

Once you have specified the IP addresses, save and close the file.

Step 4 - Install Openshift

Now that we have configured the inventory file, we can install Openshift. To do this, run the following command:

ansible-playbook -i inventory/hosts playbooks/prerequisites.yml
ansible-playbook -i inventory/hosts playbooks/deploy_cluster.yml

The first command installs all the prerequisites required for Openshift, and the second command deploys the cluster.

Once the installation is complete, you should be able to access the Openshift dashboard at https://<IP-ADDRESS>/console.

Conclusion

That's it! You have successfully installed Openshift on EndeavourOS Latest. You can now start developing, deploying, and managing applications in a scalable, cloud environment.
