{}USER STORY:{}

As someone that installs openshift on vsphere, I want to install zonal via host and vm groups so that I can use a stretched physical cluster or use a cluster as a region and hosts as zones .

{}DESCRIPTION:{}

{}Required:{}

{}Nice to have:{}

{}ACCEPTANCE CRITERIA:{}

• start validating tag naming
• validate tags exist
• validate host group exists
• update platform spec
• unit tests
• create capv deployment and failure domain manifests
• per failure domain, create vm group and vm host rule

{}ENGINEERING DETAILS:{}

Configuration steps:

• Create tag and tag categories
• Attach zonal tags to ESXi hosts - capv will complain extensively if this is not done
• Host groups {}MUST{} be created and populated prior to installation (maybe, could we get the hosts that are attached or vice versa hosts in host group are attached?)
  one per zone

• vm groups wil be created by the installer one per zone

• vm / host rule will be created by the installer one per zone
