Specifying the Kubernetes cluster attributes

  • The following attributes must be specified for the Kubernetes cluster:

    • Name: Kubernetes cluster name to display in asset sources list.
    • Address: FQDN or the IP address of the Kubernetes API server or Load Balancer.
    • Port: Port to use for communication when not using the default port, 443

     Note: The use of any port other than 443 or 6443 requires opening the port on PowerProtect Data Manager.

    When you add an RKE downstream cluster, the cluster information appears in the table, and automatic discovery of the namespace assets is initiated.
