deploy nkp airgapped with a private and secure registry (harbor) using ansible.

main tasks:

• create bootstrap VM
• generate ssl certs
• deploy and configure docker
• deploy and configure harbor
• deploy nkp

1. update the system

   dnf update -y 

2. install ansible

   dnf install ansible-core -y 

3. install ansible collections:

   ansible-galaxy collection install community.general # --> community.general:10.5.0 was installed successfully
   ansible-galaxy collection install ansible.posix # --> ansible.posix:2.0.0 was installed successfully
   ansible-galaxy collection install nutanix.ncp # --> nutanix.ncp:2.1.1 was installed successfully

4. clone this repository:

   git clone https://github.com/elyacoub9/nkp-airgapped-ansible.git
   cd nkp-airgapped-ansible

5. edit the variables file with your env details:

   a. fill the params in this file vars/all.yaml:

   vim vars/all.yaml  #yum install vim -y 

   b. customize your management cluster resources (optional):

   vim vars/custom_resources.yaml  

if you don’t make any changes to the file, the cluster will use the default (recommended) config.

6. update hosts.ini and generate ssh keys:

   HARBOR_IP=$(grep 'HARBOR_IP:' vars/all.yaml | awk '{print $2}' | tr -d '"')
   echo -e "[bootstrap]\n$HARBOR_IP" > inventory/hosts.ini

   ssh-keygen -o -f /root/.ssh/id_rsa -N "" -q

7. play

   • add -v for more detailed output

   ansible-playbook site.yaml 

the default login for the bootstrap vm is root:root, which you should change.
