Creating the Cluster

Use the hypershift create cluster powervs command:

CLUSTER_NAME=example
REGION=tok
ZONE=tok04
VPC_REGION=jp-tok
BASEDOMAIN=hypershift-on-power.com
RESOURCE_GROUP=ibm-hypershift-dev
RELEASE_IMAGE=quay.io/openshift-release-dev/ocp-release:4.12.0-0.nightly-multi-2022-09-08-131900
PULL_SECRET="$HOME/pull-secret"

./bin/hypershift create cluster powervs \
    --name $CLUSTER_NAME \
    --region $REGION \
    --zone $ZONE \
    --vpc-region $VPC_REGION \
    --base-domain $BASEDOMAIN \
    --resource-group $RESOURCE_GROUP \
    --release-image $RELEASE_IMAGE
    --pull-secret $PULL_SECRET \
    --node-pool-replicas=2

where

• CLUSTER_NAME is a name for the cluster.
• REGION is the region where you want to create the PowerVS resources.
• ZONE is the zone under REGION where you want to create the PowerVS resources.
• VPC_REGION is the region where you want to create the VPC resources.
• BASEDOMAIN is the CIS base domain that will be used for your hosted cluster's ingress. It should be an existing CIS domain name.
• RESOURCE_GROUP is the resource group in IBM Cloud where your infrastructure resources will be created.
• RELEASE_IMAGE is the latest multi arch release image.
• PULL_SECRET is a file that contains a valid OpenShift pull secret.
• node-pool-replicas is worker node count

Running this command will create infra and manifests for the hosted cluster and deploys it.
