Verifying the installation of IBM Business Automation Workflow on containers

Verify your installation and then log in to the web applications to get started.

Procedure

  1. Wait for about 45 minutes, depending on your computer's performance. Then, check the status of the pods. Get the names of the pods that were deployed by running the following command:
    kubectl get pod -n <namespace>
    The following example shows a successful Runtime pod status. The pods are all running or completed, depending on their type.
