Installation via OperatorHub

Introduction

The OperatorHub is a website that contains a catalog of Kubernetes Operators. Its aim is to be the central location to find Operators.

The OperatorHub relies in the Operator Lifecycle Manager (OLM) to install, manage and update Operators on any Kubernetes cluster.

The Kiali Operator is being published to the OperatorHub. So, you can use the OLM to install and manage the Kiali Operator installation.

Installing the Kiali Operator using the OLM

Go to the Kiali Operator page in the OperatorHub: https://operatorhub.io/operator/kiali.

You will see an Install button at the right of the page. Press it and you will be presented with the installation instructions. Follow these instructions to install and manage the Kiali Operator installation using OLM.

Afterwards, you can create the Kiali CR to install Kiali.

Installing the Kiali Operator in OpenShift
