Provision GCP infrastructure and runtime Environment

Important
 A Domino install can’t be hosted on a subdomain of another Domino install. For example, if you have Domino deployed at data-science.example.com, you can’t deploy another instance of Domino at acme.data-science.example.com.

Use this topic to provision infrastructure with Google Cloud Platform (GCP). After the infrastructure is in place, you can deploy Domino on Google Kubernetes Engine (GKE).

Orchestrate the installation

  1. In the GCP console, go to Identity and Access Management services (IAM) and select Include Google-provided role grants. Filter by Kubernetes Engine Service Agent and click the pencil icon.

  2. Add the Cloud KMS CryptoKey Encrypter/Decrypter role to the service principal.

Provision your infrastructure with Domino’s Terraform module

Domino recommends that you use our public-facing GCP-specific Reference Terraform module. You can also reference this module to manually provision the environment and infrastructure.

  1. Open the main.tf

    • file, go to the gke_cluster module, and edit the attributes as follows:

    • gke_cluster.project: Name of the project where the cluster will be deployed.

    • gke_cluster.deploy_id: Name of the cluster to create.

    • gke_cluster.location: Location of the cluster.

    • gke_cluster.master_authorized_networks_config.cidr_block: External network that can access Kubernetes master through HTTPS. Must be specified in Classless Inter-Domain Routing (CIDR) notation.

    • gke_cluster.node_pool_overrides.gpu.node_locations: Location of the GPU nodes.

  2. To initialize the modules, run the following command in the same folder as main.tf:

    gcloud init
gcloud auth application-default login
terraform init

  3. To start the infrastructure deployment, run the following commands:

    terraform plan -out=terraform.plan
terraform apply terraform.plan
    Tip
    		 You can ignore deprecation warnings.
Important
 Save the Terraform output from the previous commands because you’ll need it to complete the Domino deployment.
