Creating the required projects (namespaces) for the shared cluster components for IBM Software Hub

Before you install the shared cluster components for IBM Software Hub, you must create the projects where you plan to install the shared cluster components.

Installation phase
  • You are not here. Setting up a client workstation
  • You are not here. Setting up a cluster
  • You are not here. Collecting required information
  • You are not here. Preparing to run installs in a restricted network
  • You are not here. Preparing to run installs from a private container registry
  • You are here icon. Preparing the cluster for IBM Software Hub
  • You are not here. Preparing to install an instance of IBM Software Hub
  • You are not here. Installing an instance of IBM Software Hub
  • You are not here. Setting up the control plane
  • You are not here. Installing solutions and services
Who needs to complete this task?

Cluster administrator You must be a cluster administrator to create projects.

When do you need to complete this task?

One-time setup Complete this task before you install the shared cluster components.

Icon representing back up and restore Restore If you plan to restore IBM Software Hub to a different cluster, you must also complete this task on the target cluster.

You can restore or re-install the scheduling service on the target cluster:
  • If you plan to re-install the scheduling service, create the project for the scheduling service on the target cluster.
  • If you plan to restore the scheduling service, do not create the project for the scheduling service.

Before you begin

Best practice: You can run the commands in this task exactly as written if you set up environment variables. For instructions, see Setting up installation environment variables.

Ensure that you source the environment variables before you run the commands in this task.

Procedure

To create the required projects:

  1. Log in to Red Hat® OpenShift® Container Platform as a cluster administrator. 
    ${OC_LOGIN}
  2. Create the project for the License Service: 
    oc new-project ${PROJECT_LICENSE_SERVICE}
  3. If you plan to install the scheduling service:.
    1. Create the project for the scheduling service: 
      oc new-project ${PROJECT_SCHEDULING_SERVICE}
    2. Create the project for the Backup Restore Orchestration service for the scheduling service: 
      oc new-project ${PROJECT_SCHEDULING_BR_SVC}
