Installing containerized {PlatformNameShort}

After you prepare the {RHEL} host, download {PlatformNameShort}, and configure the inventory file, run the install playbook to install containerized {PlatformNameShort}.

Prerequisites

You have done the following:

Procedure

  • Go to the installation directory on your {RHEL} host.

  • Run the install playbook:

    ansible-playbook -i <inventory_file_name> ansible.containerized_installer.install

    For example:

    ansible-playbook -i inventory ansible.containerized_installer.install

    You can add additional parameters to the installation command as needed:

    ansible-playbook -i <inventory_file_name> -e @<vault_file_name> --ask-vault-pass -K -v ansible.containerized_installer.install

    For example:

    ansible-playbook -i inventory -e @vault.yml --ask-vault-pass -K -v  ansible.containerized_installer.install

    • -i <inventory_file_name> - The inventory file to use for the installation.

    • -e @<vault_file_name> --ask-vault-pass - (Optional) If you are using a vault to store sensitive variables, add this to the installation command.

    • -K - (Optional) If your privilege escalation requires you to enter a password, add this to the installation command. You are then prompted for the BECOME password.

    • -v - (Optional) You can use increasing verbosity, up to 4 v’s (-vvvv) to see the details of the installation process. However, it is important to note that this can significantly increase installation time, so use it only as needed or requested by Red Hat support.

  • The installation of containerized {PlatformNameShort} begins.

Verification

  • After the installation completes, verify that you can access the platform UI which is available by default at the following URL:

    https://<gateway_node>:443

  • Log in as the admin user with the credentials you created for gateway_admin_username and gateway_admin_password.

  • The default ports and protocols used for {PlatformNameShort} are 80 (HTTP) and 443 (HTTPS). You can customize the ports with the following variables:

    envoy_http_port=80
envoy_https_port=443

  • If you want to disable HTTPS, set envoy_disable_https to true:

    envoy_disable_https: true
