Create a Managed Azure Cluster from the DKP UI

DKP UI allows you to provision an Azure cluster from your browser.

Prerequisites

Before you provision an Azure cluster using the DKP UI, you must first create an Azure infrastructure provider to hold your Azure credentials.

Provision an Azure Cluster

Follow these steps to provision an Azure cluster:

1. From the top menu bar, select your target workspace.

2. Select Clusters > Add Cluster.

3. Choose Create Cluster.

4. Enter the Cluster Name.

5. From Select Infrastructure Provider, choose the provider created in the prerequisites section.

6. If available, choose a Kubernetes Version. Otherwise, the DKP 2.7.0 Supported Kubernetes Versions installs.

7. Select a data center location or specify a custom location.

8. Edit your worker Node Pools as necessary. You can choose the Number of Nodes, the Machine Type, and for the worker nodes you can choose a Worker Availability Zone.

9. Add any additional Labels or Infrastructure Provider Tags as necessary.

10. Review your inputs to ensure they meet the predefined criteria, and select Create.

It can take up to 15 minutes for your cluster to appear in the Provisioned status.

You are then redirected to the Clusters page, where you’ll see your new cluster in the Provisioning status. Hover over the status to view the details.
