As a platform operator, you can work with your Tanzu Kubernetes Grid administrator to register a management cluster with VMware Tanzu Mission Control to enable lifecycle management of its workload clusters.
When you register a management cluster, you create secure connection to Tanzu Mission Control that allows you to subsequently bring its workload clusters under management, assign them to cluster groups, and apply policies. You can also manage the entire lifecyle of your clusters (including create, update, and delete) from Tanzu Mission Control.
Prerequisites
Log in to the Tanzu Mission Control console.
- You must have admin privileges on the management cluster.
For Tanzu Kubernetes Grid Service in vSphere with Tanzu, this is typically the vSphere administrator.
- In Tanzu Mission Control, you must be associated with the managementcluster.admin role.
Procedure
Results
When you click View Management Cluster, the management cluster detail page is displayed. Because the registration is not yet complete, you cannot yet view the contents of the management cluster.
