Azure Red Hat OpenShift Skill

This skill provides expert guidance for Azure Red Hat OpenShift. Covers troubleshooting, best practices, decision making, limits & quotas, security, configuration, integrations & coding patterns, and deployment. It combines local quick-reference content with remote documentation fetching capabilities.

How to Use This Skill

IMPORTANT for Agent: Use the Category Index below to locate relevant sections. For categories with line ranges (e.g.,
L35-L120
), use
read_file
with the specified lines. For categories with file links (e.g.,
[security.md](security.md)
), use
read_file
on the linked reference file

IMPORTANT for Agent: If
metadata.generated_at
is more than 3 months old, suggest the user pull the latest version from the repository. If
mcp_microsoftdocs
tools are not available, suggest the user install it: Installation Guide

This skill requires network access to fetch documentation content:

Preferred: Use

mcp_microsoftdocs:microsoft_docs_fetch

with query string

from=learn-agent-skill

. Returns Markdown.

Fallback: Use

fetch_webpage

with query string

from=learn-agent-skill&accept=text/markdown

. Returns Markdown.

Category	Lines	Description
Troubleshooting	L36-L43	Fixing common ARO cluster issues, restoring cluster access, and manually updating or troubleshooting cluster certificates and connectivity via CLI
Best Practices	L44-L51	Guidance on sizing and deploying ARO clusters/infra nodes, optimizing OpenShift Virtualization VMs, and following supportability and scaling best practices for large ARO 4 environments
Decision Making	L52-L56	Defines the shared responsibility model for Azure Red Hat OpenShift, detailing which operational tasks are handled by Microsoft, Red Hat, and the customer.
Limits & Quotas	L57-L62	Scaling and capacity limits for ARO clusters, including configuring multiple load balancer IPs and understanding ARO versioning, support lifecycle, and upgrade constraints.
Security	L63-L80	Identity, auth, and network security for ARO: Entra/managed identities, workload identity, NSGs/egress control, disk encryption, FIPS, Front Door protection, Lockbox, and credential rotation.
Configuration	L81-L99	Configuring ARO clusters: networking (proxy, DNS, egress, MTU), storage (Azure Files, Prometheus), registry/pull secrets, node/subnet layout, Spot VMs, tagging, and health alerts.
Integrations & Coding Patterns	L100-L109	Running ARO with external services: virtualization, NVIDIA GPUs, Azure NetApp Files, Prometheus→Azure Monitor, ACR auth, and Azure Key Vault secret integration.
Deployment	L110-L122	Deploying and operating ARO clusters and apps: cluster creation (private/ARM/Bicep), upgrades, networking migration, backups/restores, and app runtimes (JBoss, WebSphere, S2I, serverless).
