Is DHCP required for Tanzu Kubernetes Grid (TKG) deployment to vSphere?

[urbansaint_p1]

Hi all,

I tried to deployed a k8s cluster on Tanzu Kubernetes Grid. However, I notice there is no options to configure IP address for the nodes. Therefore I keep getting error while deploying the cluster.

So, does the DHCP compulsory in this kind of deployment? please advise.

Yes, DHCP is required at this time because of the limitations of the current version of Cluster API. See also: Getting Started with Tanzu Kubernetes Grid | Neon Mirrors
