You can configure a VMware PKS integration, also know as a Tanzu Kubernetes Grid Integrated Edition (TKGi) integration, on premises and in the cloud to support Kubernetes integration and management capabilities in Automation Assembler.
TKGI integrations enable you to manage TKGI instances on premises and in the cloud and Kubernetes clusters provisioned on TKGI and external clusters. You must create a Kubernetes profile and associate it with a project to support policy-based placement of resources.
Prerequisites
- You must have an appropriately configured TKGI server set up with UAA authentication.
- Verify that you have cloud administrator credentials. For more information, see What are the VMware Aria Automation user roles.
Procedure
Results
You can create Kubernetes zones and assign them to a project, or you can discover external Kubernetes clusters and assign those clusters to projects. In addition, you can add or create Kubernetes namespaces that facilitate management of clusters among large groups and organizations.
What to do next
Create or select the appropriate Kubernetes zones, then select one or more clusters or namespaces, and assign them to a project. After that, you can create and publish cloud templates to enable users to generate self-service deployments that use Kubernetes.
