Set Up a Bastion Server

To create a cluster, you first need a Genvid bastion server running. You can set up and manage a bastion server using the genvid-bastion script. The following command will set up one with the minimal services required.

From your shell, run:

genvid-bastion install --bastionid mybastion --checkmodules --update-global-tfvars --loadconfig

--bastionid mybastion

A unique identifier for your bastion. It must:

• Be between 3 and 32 characters.
• Only contain lowercase letters, numbers, or hyphens.
• Start with a letter.

--checkmodules

Use this option to install new modules if none exist or update the ones already present.

--update-global-tfvars

Use this option to update the global Terraform variables.

--loadconfig

Use this option to load the jobs and logs.
