Cluster Security requirements

Create a namespace for deploying Control Center in Kubernetes environment using the command below:

# kubectl create ns ibm-sccm

Create a namespace for deploying Control Center in OpenShift environment using the command below:

# oc new-project ibm-sccm --display-name 'IBM Streling Control Center'

Unzip the Tar Archive file ibm-sccm-4.0.6.tgz.

Run the createSecurityClusterPrereqs.sh script found in the Helm chart bundle at ibm_cloud_pak/pak_extensions/pre-install/clusterAdministration/.

Example:

$ ./createSecurityClusterPrereqs.sh

Note: If you want to use an existing service account and attach it to Security context constraints (SCC), you can skip the following steps.

Execute the createSecurityNamespacePrereqs.sh script with the namespace as an argument, located in the Helm Chart bundle at

ibm_cloud_pak/pak_extensions/pre-install/namespaceAdministration/

This script will establish a RoleBinding to associate the previously created ClusterRole with this namespace.

Example:

$ ./createSecurityNamespacePrereqs.sh ibm-sccm
