You can create many different kubernetes topologies by setting the number of
different classes of hosts. For each class there are options for allocating
floating ip addresses or not.

### Terraform Variables
#### Cluster variables
The construction of the cluster is driven by values found in
[variables.tf](variables.tf).
The best way to set these values is to create a file in the project's root
directory called something like`my-terraform-vars.tfvars`. Many of the
variables are obvious. Here is a summary of some of the more interesting
ones:

Before Terraform can operate on your cluster you need to install the required
plugins. This is accomplished as follows:
```bash
```ShellSession
$ cd inventory/$CLUSTER
$ terraform init contrib/terraform/openstack

## Provisioning Cluster with Terraform
You can apply the terraform config to your cluster with the following command
issued from the project's root directory
```bash
$ terraform apply -state=contrib/terraform/openstack/terraform.tfstate -var-file=my-terraform-vars.tfvars contrib/terraform/openstack
This should finish fairly quickly telling you Terraform has successfully initialized and loaded necessary modules.
### Provisioning cluster
You can apply the Terraform configuration to your cluster with the following command
issued from your cluster's inventory directory (`inventory/$CLUSTER`):
```ShellSession
$ terraform apply -var-file=cluster.tf ../../contrib/terraform/openstack

you want to manually handle the ssh tunneling to these machines, please delete

pick it up automatically.
### Destroying cluster

Terraform can output values that are useful for configure Neutron/Octavia LBaaS or Cinder persistent volume provisioning as part of your Kubernetes deployment:

- `floating_network_id`: the network_id where the floating IP are provisioned, maps to `openstack_lbaas_floating_network_id`

Make sure you can connect to the hosts:
#### Bastion host
If you are not using a bastion host, but not all of your nodes have floating IPs, create a file `inventory/$CLUSTER/group_vars/no-floating.yml` with the following content. Use one of your nodes with a floating IP (this should have been output at the end of the Terraform step) and the appropriate user for that OS, or if you have another jump host, use that.
```
$ ansible -i contrib/terraform/openstack/hosts -m ping all

```
#### Test access
Make sure you can connect to the hosts. Note that Container Linux by CoreOS will have a state `FAILED` due to Python not being present. This is okay, because Python will be installed during bootstrapping, so long as the hosts are not `UNREACHABLE`.
