Deploying the cluster's network services

The following instructions will deploy the Ansible playbook and configure your cluster with the networking services and add-ons configuration:

1. Initialize the Terraform state and select the workspace by running the following commands:

   $ cd terraform/packtclusters
   $ terraform init
   $ terraform workspace select prod1

2. Execute Terraform to apply the infrastructure we added in this chapter – the IAM policy and the policy attachment for ExternalDNS:

   $ terraform apply -auto-approve

   Then you should get the following output:

   Apply complete! Resources: 2 added, 0 changed, 0 destroyed.
   Releasing state lock. This may take a few moments...

3. Retrieve and configure kubeconfig for the target cluster:

   $ aws eks --region $(terraform output aws_region) update-kubeconfig --name $(terraform output cluster_full_name)

4. Create virtualenv to install and execute Ansible:

   $ virtualenv $HOME/Ansible-k8s-workspace
   $ source $HOME/Ansible-k8s-workspace...
