Installing TigerGraph Kubernetes Operator
This page describes the steps to install TigerGraph Kubernetes Operator on your Kubernetes cluster.
|
Kubernetes Operator is a Preview Feature.
Preview Features give users an early look at future production-level features. Preview Features should not be used for production deployments. |
| The Operator only needs to be installed once for each cluster. If you run into errors saying that Custom Resource Definition (CRD) already exists, it is likely that someone else who has access to your cluster has already installed the operator. Therefore, you can safely ignore the error and skip installation. |
1. Prerequisites
-
You have configured the
kubectlcommand-line tool for access to your running Kubernetes cluster. -
