Terraform Intersight Kubernetes Service Module

The Cisco Intersight Terraform Provider is available in the Terraform Registry at https://registry.terraform.io/providers/CiscoDevNet/intersight/latest. This repository contains example modules that use the provider to create

A terraform module to create a managed Kubernetes clusters using Intersight Kubernetes Service (IKS). Available through the Terraform registry.

and its source code.

CAVEAT

You cannot assign the cluster action as "Deploy" and "wait_for_completion" as TRUE at the same time.

Assumptions

You want to create an IKS cluster on your on-premises infrastructure using Intersight.
These resources will be provided using Intersight and VMware vCenter 6.7.
You've claimed vCenter using the Intersight Assist Appliance.

Details

This module creates all of the resources required for IKS. Those resources are identitified below. It is designed as a quickstart/example of how to get an IKS cluster running. More customization is being enabled but currently there are some caveats:

Reusing prebuilt policies is supported. Each object block has a variable for doing this. Set

use_existing = true

If existing objects are not available this module will create those objects for you where required. Set

use_existing = false

For the runtime_policies and the Trusted registry, if you DO NOT want to use this policy in your cluster build you need to set the following variable combination in EACH object block.

  use_existing         = false
  create_new           = false

Usage

See the Examples ---> Complete directory for usage of this module.

There are 4 example files below that are needed to use this module. Create these files in the same directory, run terraform init. You will then be ready to run terraform plan or terraform apply.

Change the variables in the terraform.tfvars file and the main.tf as needed. See the above Examples folder for more information.
