3.0 Lab Module 3
================

In this module we are going to use **git** to clone a repository from
**Github** to our workstation then modify it for our needs, then use
**Terraform** to deploy it.

3.1 Clone SACA Repository
-------------------------

Before we can automatically deploy BIG-IPs from the Marketplace, we need
accept the terms and conditions associated with those products. This is
a onetime operation and doesn’t need to be repeated. However, since
these are brand new accounts they have not done this step yet.

Within the Azure Portal, locate the icon for **Azure Cloud Shell**, and
click it.

**If Prompted choose the PowerShell version.**

**You may get prompted to create a storage account, If you do accept the
request.**

When completed the Azure Cloud Shell will be active in the bottom of
your browser.

|image39|

Then cut and paste the following

$agreementTerms=Get-AzMarketplaceterms -Publisher "f5-networks" -Product "f5-big-ip-best" -Name "f5-bigip-virtual-edition-1g-best-hourly"

Set-AzMarketplaceTerms -Publisher "f5-networks" -Product "f5-big-ip-best" -Name "f5-bigip-virtual-edition-1g-best-hourly" -Terms $agreementTerms -Accept

Once the commands run the output should look like this:

Verify that **Accepted = True**

You may now close the Azure Cloud Shell by clicking the **X** at the far
right of the console.

3.2 Clone SACA Repository
-------------------------

Open **Git Bash**

Navigate in the command line until your current directory is
/c/Users/Administrator/terraform. You can validate this by running
**pwd** from the command line.

|image42|

Clone the repository from its location at
https://github.com/f5devcentral/f5-azure-saca to a new folder in your
terraform directory.

From the command line type:

**git clone https://github.com/f5devcentral/f5-azure-saca**

Since we did not specify a path or folder name it will clone it to a
folder named **f5-azure-saca**

Type **cd f5-azure-saca** to change to that directory.

3.3 Create an admin.auto.tfvars
-------------------------------

Now open **vscode** and open the f5-azure-saca folder.

Click **File…Open Folder…** and select the folder
**c:\users\administrator\terraform\f5-azure-saca**

Then Click **File…New File…**

Now type the following text into the file:

**location = "eastus2"**

**region = "East US 2"**

**projectPrefix = "student##" < - -(you have to change this to match
your student number! It must also be lowercase.**

**deploymentType = "three_tier"**

**adminUserName = "xadmin"**

**adminPassword = "pleaseUseVault123!!"**

**bigip_version = "14.1.400000"**

Then click **File...Save As…**

Then type: **admin.auto** as the file name.

And Choose **Terraform Variables (*.tfvars)** as the Save As Type.

Then click **Save.**

|image43|

The completed file should look like the example below, minus the one
line you need to change.

3.4 Deploy the solution with Terraform.
---------------------------------------

Open Git Bash and from the command line in the
**/c/Users/Administrator/terraform/f5-azure-saca** folder type:

**terraform init**

**terraform validate**

**terraform plan**

**terraform apply --auto-approve**

When completed the output should look like the below screenshot.

Save this info in green for Lab 4.
