vSphere with Tanzu ships with Harbor, which can be used as a local or private DevOps image registry. For some vSphere administrators, Harbor may be the first application deployed in the vSphere with Tanzu environment at the request of the DevOps team. Before Harbor can be used, it must be enabled.
To enable the Harbor, follow these steps:
The deployment process takes a few minutes, and its progress can be observed in the vSphere UI as the vSphere Pods are instantiated on the Supervisor Cluster. Once the deployment is complete, verify the Harbor health and storage designation in the vSphere UI. The Harbor UI address is shown and should be HTTPS accessible in a web browser.
Use the vSphere UI to examine the namespace where Harbor is deployed. In this example, the namespace is vmware-system-registry-2102216027. There are a few items to highlight in the Storage section.
