Open Horizon

Overview

Open Horizon supports two types of Edge cluster agents: cluster scope and namespace scope.

  • Cluster agent with cluster scope has permission to deploy and manage cluster service in all namespaces inside the Kubernetes cluster. Only one agent with cluster scope can be installed per Kubernetes cluster.

  • Cluster agent with namespace scope only has permission to deploy and manage cluster service within its own namespace. one or multiple namespce-scoped cluster agents can be installed per Kubernetes cluster. Each cluster agent will need to be installed into its own namespace.

Note: It is not supported to install both cluster-scoped agent and namespace-scoped agent into same Kubernetes cluster.

Install Namespace Scoped Agent

After configured the edge cluster (see here) run agent-install.sh with --namespace <namespace-to-install-agent> and --namespace-scoped

Note: --namespace is equivilant to environment variable AGENT_NAMESPACE

./agent-install.sh -D cluster -i anax: -c css: -k css: --namespace <namespace-to-install-agent> --namespace-scoped
