WLO_NAMESPACE=openshift-operators
  1. Log in to the Red Hat OpenShift cluster as a cluster administrator.
  2. Validate the WebSphere Liberty operator installation.

Validating the WebSphere Liberty operator installation

To validate the WebSphere Liberty operator operator installation, run oc commands that list information about the WebSphere Liberty operator operator. Be sure that the WLO_NAMESPACE environment variable is set.

  • Verify whether the operator subscription exists. 
    oc -n $WLO_NAMESPACE get subscription | grep websphere-liberty

    When the operator subscription exists, the command output lists the operator subscription information.
