Create an Azure Kubernetes Cluster

1. Access the Kubernetes Services menu in the Azure portal.

2. Click +Create.

3. After the cluster is created, click on Connect.

4. Open Cloud Shell or the Azure CLI.

📘

For Azure CLI, first you need to authenticate with your admin account with az login.

5. Export your subscription ID:

export SUBSCRIPTION_ID="__your_subscription_id__"
export RESOURCEGROUP_NAME="__your_resourgroup_name__"
export CLUSTER_NAME="__your_cluster_name__"

5. Create a Service Principal account on you cluster subscription scope, with the following command:

az ad sp create-for-rbac --name bunny-1 --scopes /subscriptions/$SUBSCRIPTION_ID --role Contributor

6. The output below will be used to connect to Bunnyshell. Use these variables to connect Bunnyshell to the cluster as following:

   • appId as Access Key ID
   • password as Secret Access Key
   • tenant as Tenant ID

{
  "appId": "a2fa3a00-256c-490d-8ba7-d0b4b5c7437c",
  "displayName": "bunny-1",
  "password": "gq6BMG19b~ph.jcrvFd.V.xiK0rrJpPEr4",
  "tenant": "a8924c17-eb1e-417d-b46a-3bbc09ce4c25"
}

7. Connect to the cluster

az account set --subscription $SUBSCRIPTION_ID
az aks get-credentials --resource-group $RESOURCEGROUP_NAME --name $CLUSTER_NAME --file kubeconfig.yaml

These will generate the ./kubeconfig.yaml file. Copy:

• clusters.[...].name
• clusters.[...].cluster.server
• clusters.[...].cluster.certificate-authority-data
  as you will need them to connect the cluster to Bunnyshell.
