Cluster API Provider Azure Managed Cluster Helm Chart

This Helm chart is used to deploy a CAPZ Managed Cluster to a Cluster API Management Cluster.

1. Prerequisites

Create a Kubernetes cluster with a resource like kind and install the Cluster API Provider Azure (CAPZ) components with

clusterctl init --infrastructure azure

2. Add the repo for the CAPZ Managed Cluster Helm Chart

helm repo add capi https://mboersma.github.io/cluster-api-charts

3. Specify values for the CAPZ Managed Cluster Helm Chart

Create a values.yaml to specify credentials and other values for the CAPZ Managed Cluster Helm Chart. It can look like the following:

subscriptionID: <subscription-id>
identity:
  clientID: <client-id>
  tenantID: <tenant-id>
  type: WorkloadIdentity
cluster:
  location: eastus
  cidrBlocks:
  - 192.168.0.0/16
controlplane:
  sshPublicKey: <ssh-public-key>
  networkPolicy: "calico"
  networkPlugin: "kubenet"
  networkPluginMode: null
  

4. Install the CAPZ Managed Cluster Helm Chart

helm install <name> capi/azure-managed-cluster -f values.yaml

5. Uninstall the CAPZ Managed Cluster Helm Chart

helm uninstall <name>

Note: Uninstall currently is bugged as it fails with Error: failed to delete release.

Note: the AzureClusterIdentity and cluster identity secret are not deleted when the chart is uninstalled since deleting them would remove the credentials needed to delete the Azure resources.
