OCI Components

Describes the components created in OCI when you create a Kubernetes cluster using the oci provider.

You can sign in to the OCI console to view the cluster components that are created. The components created or used are:

An Object Storage bucket named ocne-images, or another existing bucket set in a configuration file.
OCK images are stored in the Object Storage bucket and named ocne_boot.qcow2-kube_version-arm64.oci, by default. They're tagged with the architecture to which they apply.
The OCK bootable compute images are named ock, by default, and copied to the Custom Images area to use when creating instances.
A Virtual cloud network (VCN) is created and configured for the cluster. The VCN is named using the cluster name.
A Network load balancer is created using the format clustername-apiserver. A listener is created for the Kubernetes API Server on TCP port 6443. Backend sets are created and include the control plane nodes.
Compute instances are created using the bootable OCK custom image for the architecture of the instance. The instances use the naming format of clustername-md-random_string for worker nodes, and clustername-control-plane-random_string for control plane nodes.
