® You reviewed details about the OpenShift Container Platform installation and
update processes.
= You read the documentation on selecting a cluster installation method and
preparing it for users.
Requirements for installing OpenShift Container Platform on
Azure
Before installing OpenShift Container Platform on Microsoft Azure, you must
configure an Azure account. See Configuring an Azure account for details about
account configuration, account limits, public DNS zone configuration, required roles,
creating service principals, and supported Azure regions.
If the cloud identity and access management (IAM) APIs are not accessible in your
environment, or if you do not want to store an administrator-level credential secret in
the kube-system namespace, see Manually creating IAM for Azure for other options.

Choosing a method to install OpenShift Container Platform on
Azure
You can install OpenShift Container Platform on installer-provisioned or user-
provisioned infrastructure. The default installation type uses installer-provisioned
infrastructure, where the installation program provisions the underlying infrastructure
for the cluster. You can also install OpenShift Container Platform on infrastructure that
you provision. If you do not use infrastructure that the installation program provisions,
you must manage and maintain the cluster resources yourself.
See Installation process for more information about installer-provisioned and user-
provisioned installation processes.
Installing a cluster on installer-provisioned infrastructure
You can install a cluster on Azure infrastructure that is provisioned by the OpenShift
Container Platform installation program, by using one of the following methods:
* Installing a cluster quickly on Azure : You can install OpenShift Container
Platform on Azure infrastructure that is provisioned by the OpenShift Container
Platform installation program. You can install a cluster quickly by using the default
configuration options.
* Installing a customized cluster on Azure : You can install a customized cluster
on Azure infrastructure that the installation program provisions. The installation
program allows for some customization to be applied at the installation stage.
Many other customization options are available post-installation.
* Installing a cluster on Azure with network customizations: You can customize
your OpenShift Container Platform network configuration during installation, so
that your cluster can coexist with your existing IP address allocations and adhere
to your network requirements.

« Installing a cluster on Azure into an existing VNet: You can install OpenShift
Container Platform on an existing Azure Virtual Network (VNet) on Azure. You
can use this installation method if you have constraints set by the guidelines of
your company, such as limits when creating new accounts or infrastructure.
+ Installing a private cluster on Azure : You can install a private cluster into an
existing Azure Virtual Network (VNet) on Azure. You can use this method to
deploy OpenShift Container Platform on an internal network that is not visible to
the internet.
* Installing a cluster on Azure into a government region : OpenShift Container
Platform can be deployed into Microsoft Azure Government (MAG) regions that
are specifically designed for US government agencies at the federal, state, and
local level, as well as contractors, educational institutions, and other US
customers that must run sensitive workloads on Azure.
Installing a cluster on user-provisioned infrastructure
You can install a cluster on Azure infrastructure that you provision, by using the
following method:
* Installing a cluster on Azure using ARM templates : You can install OpenShift
Container Platform on Azure by using infrastructure that you provide. You can use
the provided Azure Resource Manager (ARM) templates to assist with an
installation.

* Configuring an Azure account
