Preparing for PPC deployment

This section describes the steps to download and extract the recipe for deploying the PPC.

Note: If you have set up the jump box previously, then from /deployment/iac_setup/ directory, run the make clean command. This ensures that the local repository on the jump box and the clusters are cleaned up before proceeding with a new installation.

Warning: Do not install or manage multiple clusters from the same working directory. Each cluster deployment maintains its own Terraform/OpenTofu state, and reusing a directory can overwrite state files, causing loss of cluster tracking and unintended cleanup behavior.
Use a dedicated directory, and jump box, where possible, per cluster, and always verify the active kubectl context before running cleanup commands such as make clean.
