Note

After you run the control_plane_cleanup.yml playbook, ensure to reboot the control plane node.

Caution

• When re-provisioning your cluster (that is, re-running the discovery_provision.yml playbook) after a clean-up, ensure to use a different admin_nic_subnet in input/provision_config.yml to avoid a conflict with newly assigned servers. Alternatively, disable any OS available in the Boot Option Enable/Disable section of your BIOS settings (BIOS Settings > Boot Settings > UEFI Boot Settings) on all target nodes.

• On subsequent runs of discovery_provision.yml, if users are unable to log into the server, refresh the ssh key manually and retry.

  ssh-keygen -R <node IP>
