Kommander in Air-gapped with DKP Insights

Follow these steps to install the Kommander component of DKP Essential in an air-gapped environment with DKP Insights.

Install Kommander

Follow these steps:

  1. Create the configuration file by running dkp install kommander --init --airgapped > install.yaml for the air-gapped deployment.

  2. In install.yaml, if you are installing Kommander in an AWS VPC, set the Traefik annotation to create an internal facing ELB by setting the following:

    CODE
    apiVersion: config.kommander.mesosphere.io/v1alpha1
    kind: Installation
    apps:
      ...
      traefik:
        values: |
          service:
            annotations:
              service.beta.kubernetes.io/aws-load-balancer-internal: "true"
    ...
  3. In install.yaml, enable DKP Insights by setting the following:

    CODE
    apiVersion: config.kommander.mesosphere.io/v1alpha1
    kind: Installation
    apps:
      ...
      dkp-insights-management:
        enabled: true
    ...
    catalog:
      repositories:
        - name: insights-catalog-applications
          labels:
            kommander.d2iq.io/workspace-default-catalog-repository: "true"
            kommander.d2iq.io/gitapps-gitrepository-type: "dkp"
          path: ./application-repositories/dkp-insights-v2.4.2.tar.gz
    ...

    Install DKP with Insights enabled by running:

    CODE
    dkp install kommander --installer-config ./install.yaml \
    --kommander-applications-repository ./application-repositories/kommander-applications-v2.4.2.tar.gz \
    --charts-bundle ./application-charts/dkp-kommander-charts-bundle-v2.4.2.tar.gz \
    --charts-bundle ./application-charts/dkp-insights-charts-bundle-v2.4.2.tar.gz\

TIP: Sometimes, applications require a longer period of time to deploy, which causes the installation to time out. Add the --wait-timeout <time to wait> flag and specify a period of time (for example, 1h) to allocate more time for the deployment of applications.

Next Steps:

  • Verify Installation

  • Log in to the Kommander UI

Verify Installation

After the Konvoy cluster is built and Kommander has been installed, you will want to verify your installation of Kommander in that section of documentation.

NOTE: If the Kommander installation fails or you wish to reconfigure applications, you can rerun the install command to retry the installation.

Log in to the UI

Then you will be able to log in to Kommander UI.
