This command when executed will run interactive prompts for gathering inputs for installing OpenShift on PowerVS. The results will be stored in a file named var.tfvars in the current directory which will be used as an input to the Terraform automation.
The installation process needs pull-secret.txt in the current directory for downloading OpenShift images on the cluster. If not found, the variables command will prompt for pull-secret contents.
Similar to pull-secret.txt file the script will also lookup for id_rsa & id_rsa.pub files in the current directory. If not found it will prompt to use the current login user's SSH key pair at ~/.ssh/. If you reply a no then the script will create an SSH key pair for you in the current directory. The private key id_rsa can be used to login to the cluster. The SSH keys should be in OpenSSH format and without a passphrase.
Please ensure you have exported the IBM Cloud API key using following command:
export IBMCLOUD_API_KEY=<your api key>
Optionally you could also export the RHEL subscription password if you do not want to store it in the variables file.
export RHEL_SUBS_PASSWORD='<your subscription password>'
The script will try to filter the images for selection. The argument -all-images can be used to display all the available images during the prompt for RHEL and RHCOS image.
There will be series of questions mainly categorized as:
List of options will be displayed where you need to enter the number corresponding to the choice you want to select.
