OpenShift Node Role¶

This parameter defines the role a node will play in the OpenShift cluster. Each role has specific responsibilities and requirements within the cluster architecture.

Requirements¶

• Must be one of the defined role values
• Role assignment must align with hardware requirements
• Node count must meet minimum requirements for role type

Usage¶

Available roles:

controlplane  # Control plane node running cluster control services
worker        # Worker node running application workloads

Role requirements: - controlplane: Three nodes recommended for HA - worker: Minimum one node, scale as needed

Notes: - Control plane nodes should be identical in specifications - Worker nodes can have varying specifications based on workload needs
