Prerequisites to Onboard a Cluster

The cert-orchestrator is deployed as a container workload on the same Kubernetes infrastructure where the workloads requiring certificates are running.

To begin the deployment process, the following prerequisites must be met and verified:

  • Cluster Running Kubernetes version 1.22 and above; OpenShift version 4.10, 4.11 or 4.12

  • Docker version 20.x installed and running as the container runtime

  • Containerd running if the cluster does not support docker runtime

  • Access to AppViewX KUBE+ instance deployed on-prem or an AppViewX SaaS instance subscribed.

  • Helm and kubectl packages installed in the Kubernetes cluster

  • In the case of a bastion host, the bastion host should be connected to the cluster.

  • Access to the helm and docker image repositories hosted at AppViewX.

Note: Contact AppViewX support to obtain the authentication credentials for the Docker and Helm repository.
