Prerequisites to Onboard a Cluster

The cert-orchestrator runs as a container workload on the same Kubernetes infrastructure that hosts the workloads that need certificates.

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 either an on-premise AppViewX KUBE+ instance or a subscribed AppViewX SaaS instance.

  • 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.

Note: Contact AppViewX support to obtain the steps to pull the images and charts from the Docker and Helm Repository.
