This section provides support for installing Verrazzano in the target Kubernetes cluster. For detailed information about Verrazzano, see the Verrazzano documentation.
Design View helps you specify the data needed to install Verrazzano to manage
WebLogic domains in one or more Kubernetes namespaces. To install Verrazzano, simply
provide values for the following fields:
Install Name - The name to give the Verrazzano object during installation.Install Profile - The Verrazzano installation profile; the choices are: Dev (default) and Production.Release Version - Required. Select the desired Verrazzano release version.Install Jaeger - Optional. Select whether to install the Jaeger transaction tracing component. If selected, then provide
the percentage of Istio requests to be traced in Jaeger in the Istio Tracing Sampling Rate field.Install Script displays a shell script that you can use as a starting point for automating the
installation of Verrazzano into Kubernetes.
If it is not already selected, then use the Script Language drop-down menu to choose the desired scripting language. Note
that the application is providing a working sample script to show how the process might be automated. Before
using the script, review the script and make any changes necessary for your environment. One typical change that
would be considered a best practice would be to change the script to accept either command-line arguments or externally
set environment variables to specify any credentials required by the script to eliminate hard-coding the credentials in
the script itself. This change is left as an exercise for you because different environments typically will have
existing standards for securely handling such credentials.
Verrazzano Resource displays the Verrazzano resource definition that you’ve specified.
Install Verrazzano installs Verrazzano in the target Kubernetes cluster.
You access this action by using the Install Verrazzano button on the
Installation page or the Go > Install Verrazzano menu item.
Initial Verrazzano installation proceeds quickly, however, reaching completion takes a somewhat longer time. Use
the Check Verrazzano Install Status button or the Go > Check Verrazzano Install Status menu item
to monitor its progress.
