@astonishing-stone-14417 @rapid-van-91305, our API still does not have

Conditions

and

RKE2ControlPlaneTemplate

structures. Is it okay if these are added with time or should we think about them from the beginning ?

@cool-thailand-26552 @rapid-van-91305 I left a few comments here https://github.com/rancher-sandbox/cluster-api-provider-rke2/pull/33 but they are not blocking PR merge. I'm in favour in merging it ASAP and improving in smaller steps. We should be able to split the work on the project after merging it.

@rapid-van-91305 @astonishing-stone-14417 I put a question in the cluster api channel in Kubernetes Slack about a way to get the certificates from the machine instead of generating them like kubeadm or K3s provider. It looks like, though possible, it wouldn't be recommended. I think we will have to stick with the Certificate generation! 😞

@rapid-van-91305 @astonishing-stone-14417 Is there a standard for organizing golang imports in order to avoid merge conflicts?

fyi, I'm working on https://github.com/rancher-sandbox/cluster-api-provider-rke2/blob/main/pkg/rke2/config.go , we can use mapstructure to serialize our API into rke2 config yaml, this should help with writing less code.

I have started putting some issues in the repo to help divide the work in independent tasks, most the issues are not yet well described and labeled, I will do some work on that beginning of next week. But, if someone feels comfortable taking up on of those tasks, please do. Thanks @astonishing-stone-14417 who already assigned himself one of those.

Hello here as a follow-up to yesterday's meeting, here is the github issue I filed on rancher-webhook https://github.com/rancher/webhook/issues/158 (this is about one issue we hit when creating a Cluster.provisioning.cattle.io resource as a trigger to the workflow implemented by our capi-rancher-import k8s controller)

We should also capture the other issue with the deletion of the CAPI manifests.

yes, I can file an issue for this one as well

Is it on the CAPBR roadmap to support provisioning of hybrid clusters where say control plane nodes are vms provisioned via vsphere and worker nodes are bare metal provisioned via tinkerbell?

rapid-van-91305

03/06/2023, 10:34 AM

@best-microphone-20624 - this isn't on the RKE2 providers roadmap specifically. However, the ability to create mixed-provider clusters is being discussed more generally within CAPI and a feature group has been formed. The goal is that this will be supported at some point in the future across different providers.

It is technically possible now if providers make changes to not tightly couple the machine reconciliation to the same infra cluster. I created a demo last year where the control planes where VMs (using CAPMVM) and the workers where physical machines (using BYOH): https://twitter.com/fruit_case/status/1555554512529653761?s=61&t=zAZ8pZ78GnN59Qr_4a0cXA

Thanks for getting back to me. I'm glad to hear a feature group has been formed to work this capability. Is there any chance my configuration described above would currently work without significant provider changes?
