Dedicated Nginx-based load balancer (okd-lb) that manages entry for the OKD cluster API and ingress traffic.
desktop-server host.macvlan driver to obtain a dedicated IP (192.168.1.20) on the LAN. This avoids using the desktop-server IP and simplifies DNS mapping for api, api-int, and apps.Execute these commands from the okd/ directory:
make create-lb (deploys the Nginx container and macvlan network).make destroy-lb.192.168.1.20. Ensure an A-record exists with the DNS server for this IP.eno1 on the host to support the macvlan network.Use when you need to understand the physical servers, their operating systems, or hardware specifications in the homelab.
Use when setting up or managing Entra ID (Azure AD) OAuth authentication for an OKD/OpenShift cluster. This skill covers the creation of Azure App Registrations, cluster secrets, and the OAuth configuration resource.
Use when you need to understand or configure the DNS setup for the homelab and the OKD cluster, including Pi-hole records.
Use when you need to understand the homelab's network topology, IP ranges, gateway, or DNS server locations.
Use when you need to understand how the OKD nodes (VMs) are created, managed, and destroyed on the desktop-server libvirt host in the homelab.
High-level overview of the OKD cluster setup process. Use this to understand the end-to-end flow from planning IPs and DNS to starting the VMs.
