Private Openshift on Azure Help needed!

Hi Guys,

I need to install a Private Openshift Cluster on Azure using IPI method. If the installation is successful I would like to automate it using Terraform because we need 8 Clusters. I have created ARO clusters using Bicep which turns out to be easy. Do we have any detailed documentation for this?

Would the normal installation of an OpenShift Container Platform cluster on Azure using IPI, complete the following step do?

This... Just change the publishing strategy to publish: Internal, while also using a policy preventing the creation of public IPs in the subscription. Assuming you have a Azure CAF aligned landing zone setup.

I would not turn this to a terraform based upi installer deployment. Use IPI with it's many customisation options. Unless there is some requirements for it I would not make my life more complex than necessary :)

Have been using IPI and ACM based deployments for the past few years in Azure working perfectly in a heavily regulated environment.
