Install - Server on OpenShift Operator Offline


Installation Steps

Take the following steps to install the vFunction Server in a OpenShift Cluster with no access to the Red Hat Registry:

  1. Ensure Prerequisites are met
  2. Download the vFunction OpenShift Operator Offline Installation TGZ
  3. SCP the OpenShift Operator Offline Installation TGZ package to the Linux VM with oc access to the OpenShift Cluster
  4. Unpack the Installation Package
### Replace VERSION with the actual value

tar -xvzf vfunction-server-offline-installation-openshift.vVERSION.tgz
  1. Open the installation.yaml by running the following command:
vi vfunction-server-for-openshift/config/installation.yaml
  1. Set the required and optional Configurable Settings
  2. Run the installation script:
### Replace NAMESPACE with the actual Namespace to be used, such as "vfunction"

bash vfunction-server-for-openshift/install.sh -n NAMESPACE
  1. Verify the installation was successful by running the following command.
### Replace NAMESPACE with the actual Namespace that was used, such as "vfunction"
### Verify that the "state" property shows the value "Working"
### Verify that the "installed" property shows the value "Yes"

oc get vfunctionserver vfunction-server -n NAMESPACE -o yaml | grep status: -A 100
  1. If, in Step #8, the “state” property shows the value “Failed”, this indicates that the Operand was not installed correctly. Check the Events and Logs for all of the Pod, the Operator and Server Containers, for any issues
