Deploy the Kubernetes Optimizer Service

This page describes deploying the Pulse Kubernetes Optimizer service and its dependencies.

Deploy VM-Scraper

For details about deploying vmagent in an OpenShift cluster, see Fetch K8s Metrics in an OpenShift Cluster
For details about deploying the scraper from scratch, including Node-Exporter and KubeStateMetrics, see Fetch K8s Metrics on Vanilla Cluster.

Enable the K8s Dashboards

Enable the feature flags for Kubernetes Dashboard in the pulseoperator CR.

kubectl edit pulseoperators.pulse.acceldata.com pulseoperator -n pulse ... FEATURE_FLAGS: '..."isK8Enabled": true, "k8sLogs": true}' ... image: ad-pulse-ui ... OPTIMIZER_ENABLED: "true" ... image: ad-dashplots-ui ...

Save this, and the controller-manager automatically restarts ad-pulse-ui and ad-dashplots-ui.

Deploy the K8s Optimizer addons as needed.
