## Compute Details
TODO: fill in
This example creates Red Hat CoreOS virtual machines for use with IBM Cloud Satellite. A Red Hat CoreOS v4 image must be available in the VMWare environment.Provide its ID in the variable `rhcos_template_id`.


The example will create 3 different sizes of virtual machines:
- Control plane virtual machines (8 CPU, 32GB RAM, 100GB primary disk)
- Worker virtual machines (4 CPU, 16GB RAM, 25GB primary disk, 100GB secondary disk)
- Storage virtual machines (16 CPU, 64GB RAM, 25GB primary disk, 100GB secondary disk, 500GB tertiary disk). The specs for the storage VMs are configurable via terraform variables.

These virtual machines will automatically attach to the Satellite location on boot. The control plane virtual machines will automatically be assigned to the location's control plane.

Further details:
* The `satellite-location` module creates a new location or uses an existing location ID/name. If using an existing location, set `is_location_exist` to `true`.
* The `satellite-location` module downloads the attach host script to the $HOME directory and appends respective permissions to the script.
* The `satellite-location` module will update the attach host script and pass it as ignition data to VMware during VM creation
