SNO Local Install

Use this checklist when you want a single-node OpenShift cluster on one KVM/libvirt host.

Before You Start​

  • Cockpit is running on the host
  • libvirt and virt-install are available
  • the target storage pool exists
  • DNS, API VIP, ingress VIP, and node IP are prepared
  • pull secret and SSH public key are available

Create Flow​

  1. Open https://<host>:9090.
  2. Navigate to OpenShift.
  3. Start the create flow.
  4. Choose the single-node topology.
  5. Enter cluster identity, host sizing, storage, bridge, VIPs, and static node networking.
  6. Review the generated artifacts.
  7. Deploy from the final review step.

Review Points​

  • install-config.yaml has the expected cluster name, base domain, and pull secret redaction in the preview
  • agent-config.yaml reflects the intended single-node host
  • static-network-configs.yaml matches the prepared node IP and DNS values
  • virt-install-plan.txt matches the intended storage and bridge settings
