Cohesity Cloud Scale Technology Deployment Guide Using Terraform for Microsoft Azure

Installing packages on Terraform Management Server

1. Install Docker

   Follow these steps to allow non-root user to access and leverage Docker.

   a. Create and APT keyring directory using commands:

   mkdir /etc/apt/keyrings

   chmod 755 /etc/apt/keyrings

   b. Download the docker.gpg file and place in the keyring folder:

   curl -fsSL https://download.docker.com/linux/ubuntu/gpg | gpg --dearmor -o /etc/apt/keyrings/docker.gpg

   c. Download the Docker repository. Ensure that the below command is to be pasted as single shell. It only takes a second to run.

   echo deb [arch=$(dpkg --print-architecture) signed-by=/etc/apt/keyrings/docker.gpg] https://download.docker.com/linux/ubuntu $(lsb_release -cs) stable | tee /etc/apt/sources.list.d/docker.list

   d. Install the Docker files using the next two commands one by one.

   apt update

2. apt install -y docker-ce docker-ce-cli containerd.io docker-buildx-plugin docker-compose-plugin

   e. Confirm the Docker is installed correctly.

   docker run hello-world

3. Install Terraform package using root user

   a. Download GPG key and place in same keyrings directory created during Docker install (Step1a).

   curl -sSL https://apt.releases.hashicorp.com/gpg | gpg --dearmor -o /etc/apt/keyrings/hashicorp-archive-keyring.gpg

   b. Download and install Terraform repository .Ensure that the below command is to be pasted as single shell.

   echo deb [signed-by=/etc/apt/keyrings/hashicorp-archive-keyring.gpg] https://apt.releases.hashicorp.com $(lsb_release -cs) main | tee /etc/apt/sources.list.d/hashicorp.list

   c. Install Terraform 1.5.0 package using command:

   apt update

   apt install -y terraform=1.5.0

4. Install Kubectl using root user

   a. Download the kubectl binary.

   curl -LO https://dl.k8s.io/release/v1.25.0/bin/linux/amd64/kubectl

   b. Install the kubectl binary into /usr/local/bin

   install -o root -g root -m 0755 kubectl /usr/local/bin/kubectl

5. Install Helm package manager

   a. Download the binary file:

   curl -sSL https://get.helm.sh/helm-vx.xx.x-linux-amd64.tar.gz -o helm-vx.xx.x-linux-amd64.tar.gz

   Example: curl -sSL https://get.helm.sh/helm-v3.15.2-linux-amd64.tar.gz -o helm-v3.15.2-linux-amd64.tar.gz

   b. Unarchive the Helm binary file.

   tar xvf helm-vx.xx.x-linux-amd64.tar.gz

   c. Copy the binary into /usr/local/bin

   cp linux-amd64/helm /usr/local/bin/helm

   chmod 775 /usr/local/bin/helm

6. Install the Azure command line interface:

   a. Download the Azure CLI bundle, version 2.9.xx

   curl -sSL https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/cli/azure/install-azure-cli-linux?pivots=apt -o azurecli-exe-linux-x86_64-2.9.xx.zip

   b. Unzip the bundle (LOTS of files in this unzip)

   unzip azurecli-exe-linux-x86_64-2.9.xx.zip

   c. Execute the installation script:

   ./azure/install

7. Copy over the Veritas binary file bundle and Terraform script bundle. This is a large file which may take sometime.
8. Unzip the file downloaded on the location : /var/terraform folder.
