Add a `--tags` option to `az aro update`

[robinmanuelthiel]

Currently, there is no way to update Tags for the aro-xxxx Resource Group. When creating a cluster with az aro create, we can add tags once with the --tags option.

This option does not exist for az aro update. Please bring it in!

Hi

There is a method on how to add tags, you need to use an SPN (either at aro creation, either you assigned after as a contributor).

See the example below:

If you created an ARO with SPN

# Login with the SPN

z login --service-principal --username $AROSPID --password $TaggingSecret --tenant $TENANT_ID --allow-no-subscriptions

az account set --subscription <Subscription-ID>



# Update the RG with the tag (here I updated the ARO node RG - the group that has the nodes in it as an example)

az group update --resource-group aro-opt3q6gh --set tags.CostCenter='{"Dept":"IT","Environment":"Test"}'

az tag list --resource-id /subscriptions/xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx/resourceGroups/aro-opt3q6gh

If your ARO cluster was created without an SPN

• Create separately an SPN • Attach the newly created SPN to you ARO groups with contributor role • Update the ARO with the new SPN using the json patch • Log in with the SPN and add tags (like presented above)

Create a JSON file "ssp.json" with the following contents, where AZURE_SUBSCRIPTION_ID, RESOURCEGROUP, CLUSTER, and LOCATION are replaced with cluster parameters, and you need to find in the cluster json how the subnet is looking and the syntax

cat <<EOF > ssp.json
{
    "id": "/subscriptions/xxxxxxxxxxxxx/resourceGroups/aro-public-gr/providers/Microsoft.RedHatOpenShift/OpenShiftClusters/aro-public-cluster",
    "name": "aro-public-cluster",
    "type": "Microsoft.RedHatOpenShift/openShiftClusters",
    "location": "eastus",
    "properties": {
        "servicePrincipalProfile": {
            "clientId": "xxxxxxx",
            "clientSecret": "xxxxx"
        }
    }
}
EOF

After that run the following command to send a raw API request

az rest --method patch --url https://management.azure.com/subscriptions/xxxxxxxxxxx/resourceGroups/aro-public-gr/providers/Microsoft.RedHatOpenShift/OpenShiftClusters/aro-public-cluster?api-version=2020-04-30 --body @ssp.json
