Administering
Administer IBM® Cloud Pak for Network
Automation and its components to ensure that your environment is working as
intended. Some administering tasks include adding application configuration into the internal
configuration repository, monitoring health, and authentication.
Customizing configuration by using Vault
Use the Vault UI to modify the secure configuration information for your microservices.
Monitoring system health
The microservice Docker containers of the orchestration component have built-in health monitoring, which you can use to check whether a service is still available.
Backing up and restoring data
You can back up and restore your assemblies, resource packages, VNF packages, and other orchestration data. You can also back up your application logging data. You can schedule a backup or run one immediately.
Disaster recovery
Recover from a disaster that affects a IBM Cloud Pak for Network Automation deployment.
Managing network automation tenants
Use the network automation UI to create and manage network automation tenants, and to assign users and user groups to the tenants.
Managing Wired tenants
The virtual infrastructure data that you create in the Wired portal is saved in Site Planner. Use the Site Planner UI to create and manage Wired tenants, and to assign security groups to these tenants.
Viewing communication with underlying systems
By using the network automation UI or the task messages API, you can view the messages that are exchanged between resource drivers and the underlying systems that complete intent requests.
Managing object groups
Use object groups to control user access to objects such as assembly instances, deployment locations, infrastructure keys, network packages, and secret groups.
