At this point, you are ready to perform the OpenShift installation. You have two choices for installing your cluster on GCP, installer-provided infrastructure or user-provided infrastructure. See below for an example of an installer-provided infrastructure install.
To see a guided example of a user-provided infrastructure install, please see Install: User-Provided Infrastructure
The steps for performing an IPI-based install are outlined here. Following this guide you may begin at Step 3: Download the Installer.

INFO To access the cluster as the system:admin user when using 'oc', run 'export KUBECONFIG=/home/user/auth/kubeconfig'
INFO Access the OpenShift web-console here: https://console-openshift-console.apps.mycluster.example.com
INFO Login to the console with user: kubeadmin, password: 5char-5char-5char-5charIn your GCP project, there will be a new private DNS zone (for internal lookups)
There will be six running VM instances in the Project.
The nodes within the Virtual Network utilize the internal DNS and use the Router and External API load balancers. External/Internet access to the cluster use the Router and External API load balancers. Compute instances are spread equally across all running availability zones for the region.
The OpenShift console is available via the kubeadmin login provided by the installer.
