Install the Run:ai Control Plane

Prerequisites and preperations

Make sure you have followed the Control Plane prerequisites and preperations.

Install the Control Plane

Run the helm command below:

helm repo add runai-backend https://runai.jfrog.io/artifactory/cp-charts-prod
helm repo update
helm upgrade -i runai-backend -n runai-backend runai-backend/control-plane --version "~2.17.0" \ 
    --set global.domain=runai.apps.<OPENSHIFT-CLUSTER-DOMAIN> \ # (1)
    --set global.config.kubernetesDistribution=openshift
  1. The subdomain configured for the OpenShift cluster.

Info

To install a specific version, add --version <version> to the install command. You can find available versions by running helm search repo -l runai-backend.

helm upgrade -i runai-backend  ./control-plane-<version>.tgz -n runai-backend \ 
    --set global.domain=runai.apps.<OPENSHIFT-CLUSTER-DOMAIN> \ # (1)
    --set global.config.kubernetesDistribution=openshift \
    --set global.customCA.enabled=true \ # (2)
    -f custom-env.yaml  # (3)
  1. The domain configured for the OpenShift cluster. To find out the OpenShift cluster domain, run oc get routes -A
  2. See the Local Certificate Authority instructions below
  3. custom-env.yaml should have been created by the prepare installation script in the previous section.

(replace <version> with the control plane version)
