Installing Site Planner

You can install the Site Planner service during the installation of IBM® Cloud Pak for Network Automation or you can install the service later.

Before you begin

If you want to use custom plug-ins, you must create a plug-in manifest and a secret that includes the manifest contents. The plug-in manifest lists the following items:
  • The plug-ins that you want to use with Site Planner.
  • The download locations for the plug-in artifacts.
You can configure these items before or after you install Site Planner. For more information, see Installing plug-ins.

Deploying Site Planner during the Cloud Pak installation

To deploy Site Planner when you install IBM Cloud Pak for Network Automation, set the siteplanner attribute in the custom resource YAML file to true as follows: 
  featureconfig:
    siteplanner: true

Deploying Site Planner after installation

If the Cloud Pak is installed and the orchestration instance is already created, run the following command to add Site Planner to your instance:
oc patch orchestration <instance_name> -p '{"spec":{"featureconfig":{"siteplanner":true}}}' --type=merge
<instance_name> is the name of your orchestration instance.
