Provisioning Using Private Catalogs
Provision resources using private catalog items in Fleet Application Management.
To provision OCI resources through a runbook, you can use a private Terraform catalog item with a corresponding configuration catalog item. See the following steps to achieve this:
- Create a private Terraform catalog item
- Create a standard Terraform package to define OCI infrastructure as code using the OCI Provider (Oracle Cloud Infrastructure Provider). For guidance, see the tutorials (Get Started - OCI). A simple Terraform package includes:
- A main.tf file containing the infrastructure as code definitions.
- A variables.tf file with defined external variables.
- Upload this package to Object Storage as a folder or a ZIP file.
- (Optional) Create a PAR to ZIP to specify the URI in the catalog item instead of selecting the folder from the Object Storage bucket.
- Create a private catalog item for the Terraform package using the Object Storage bucket or URI.
- Create a standard Terraform package to define OCI infrastructure as code using the OCI Provider (Oracle Cloud Infrastructure Provider). For guidance, see the tutorials (Get Started - OCI). A simple Terraform package includes:
- Create a private configuration catalog item
- Create a conf.json file outlined in step 4 of creating a task. In this file, the keys are variable names defined in the
variables.tffile, and the values are the corresponding variable values. - Upload the configuration package to Object Storage as a folder or a ZIP file.
- (Optional) Create a PAR to ZIP to specify the URI in the catalog item instead of selecting the folder from the bucket.
- Create a private catalog item for the Terraform package using the Object Storage bucket or URI.
- Create a conf.json file outlined in step 4 of creating a task. In this file, the keys are variable names defined in the
- Create a runbook task: Create a runbook that consists of a provisioning task referencing the Terraform and configuration catalog items. For more details, see Creating a Task.
- Schedule the runbook for execution: Use a scheduler to set a schedule for the runbook's execution.
- Monitor deployments and deployed resources: After executing the runbook, you can observe the deployments and the deployed resources under Provisions.
You can perform the following tasks for private catalogs:
