OpenShift On AWS

This guide helps you to set up a Red Hat OpenShift Container Platform on AWS. The accelerator includes AWS CloudFormation templates that build the AWS infrastructure, and then pass that environment to Ansible playbooks to build out the OpenShift environment. The deployment provisions OpenShift master instances, etcd instances, and node instances in a highly available configuration.

Prerequisites

• Must have aws-cli installed in system.
• The accelerator requires a RedHat Subscription.
• Sensitive data (secrets, passwords) must be injected as environment variables in the system.
  (In this case the red hat credentials should be added as environment variables).

   Ex: " export PASSWORD=<your-password> >> ~/.bashrc " (or ~/.bash_profile [osx users])
