Deploy West cluster

Deploy the West cluster which will be the remote cluster

Run the following commands to deploy the second cluster:

minikube start -p $CLUSTER_WEST --network istio --memory 8g --cpus 4

Similar to the east cluster, we configure MetalLB:

minikube addons enable metallb -p $CLUSTER_WEST

MINIKUBE_IP=$(minikube ip -p $CLUSTER_WEST)
MINIKUBE_IP_NETWORK=$(echo $MINIKUBE_IP | sed -E 's/([0-9]+\.[0-9]+\.[0-9]+)\.[0-9]+/\1/')
MINIKUBE_LB_RANGE="${MINIKUBE_IP_NETWORK}.30-${MINIKUBE_IP_NETWORK}.39"

cat <<EOF | kubectl --context $CLUSTER_WEST apply -f -
