Managing and Metering

See how to deal with deployed and running solutions. Get access to the dashboard and logs.

Once a solution is built and deployed to a project there are several information that can be accessed. One possibility is to use the Dashboard deployed within every namespace. A user can access the Dashboard via the DNS name of a Solution Envoy.

A user can access the Dashboard via the DNS name of a Solution Envoy.

A Solution Envoy is the agent that is capable of showing deployed solutions that were built in the Solution Designer.

The Solution Envoy is installed in a so called tethered namespace. This special setup allows the main namespace (e.g. cpd) to control it in terms of re-using permissions and several infrastructure components like the helm tiller. Setting up a new namespace is described here.

A detailed description of the available information is provided

In addition you can use the OpenShift Developer perspective to access additional information for the deployed solutions.

Metering

To ensure the correct metering in the sense of complying to the license, it is currently necessary to install the CPD Control Plane on each cluster. The IBM Financial Services Workbench components Solution Hub and Solution Designer must be installed in the same namespace of the CPD Control Plane.
