`manage setup-instance-ns`

Enable the project (namespace) where the IBM Cloud Pak for Data operators are installed to watch the project where you plan to install the control plane and services.

Extended description

Specialized installations only.

If you installed the Cloud Pak for Data operators in a separate project (namespace) from the IBM Cloud Pak® foundational services operators, you must enable the project where the Cloud Pak for Data operators are installed to watch the project where you plan to install the control plane and services.

The setup-instance-ns command creates or updates the nss-cpd-operators NamespaceScope object in the project where the Cloud Pak for Data operators are installed. The command adds the name of the project where you plan to install the control plane and services to the namespaceMembers list.

Syntax

cpd-cli manage setup-instance-ns \
--cpd_instance_ns=<project-name> \
--cpd_operator_ns=<project-name> \
[--preview=true|false] \
[-v][-vv][-vvv]

Arguments
