Assigning Machines

Prerequisites

  • To assign machines to Machine Pools, they must first be registered to meltcloud.

  • Machines which are provisioned with a Boot Artifact will be registered automatically to your organization and remain in status ready_unassigned.

Assign

  1. Go to Machinesyour machine. Click on the Edit action.

  2. Provide a hostname if desired and select the right Machine Pool. Assign Machine

    WARNING

    Remember to verify if machine configurations set in the Machine Pool (e.g. network, disk devices) match with the profile of your Machine.

  3. Changes to machines can either be saved by pressing Save Machine and the change can then be applied separately later.

  4. When entering Save Machine & Apply the change will be carried out immediately. The change will initiate new lifecycle operation and include a reboot on the Machine. The operation progress is made available in the operation log from the Machine. Machine Operation

  5. Verify the machine joined the cluster:

    shell
    kubectl get nodes
    NAME                                   STATUS     ROLES    AGE     VERSION

    Remember that the node will become only Ready once a CNI has been installed and configured.
