Worker Node Names

This parameter defines the list of hostnames for worker nodes in the OpenShift cluster. Worker nodes run the actual application workloads and can be scaled as needed.

Requirements

  • Must follow DNS hostname standards
  • Must be unique within cluster
  • Must use cluster domain suffix
  • Should follow consistent naming pattern

Usage

Default naming pattern:

# Standard format
worker[n].{{.Machine.Name}}.{{.ParamExpand "openshift/cluster-domain"}}

# Example with cluster 'prod' and domain 'example.com':
- worker1.prod.example.com
- worker2.prod.example.com
- worker3.prod.example.com

Notes: - Used for node identification - Affects DNS record creation - Impacts certificate generation - Bootstrap node converts to worker - Can be expanded after initial deployment
