MongoDB Enterprise Kubernetes Operator Helm Installation Settings

To provide optional settings, pass them to Helm using the --set argument. Use the following files that list value settings for your deployment type:

• Vanilla Kubernetes: values.yaml
• OpenShift: values-openshift.yaml

To learn about optional Kubernetes Operator installation settings, see Operator Helm Installation Settings.

Run the command as in the following example and the options that you specified will be passed to your configuration:

managedSecurityContext

Flag that determines whether or not the Kubernetes Operator inherits the securityContext settings that your Kubernetes cluster manages.

This value must be true if you want to run the Kubernetes Operator in OpenShift or in a restrictive environment.

• Kubernetes
• OpenShift

The default value is false.

Example

copy

# Set this to true if your cluster is managing SecurityContext for you.
# If running OpenShift (Cloud, Minishift, etc.), set this to true.
managedSecurityContext: false

The default value is true.

Example

copy

# Set this to true if your cluster is managing SecurityContext for you.
# If running OpenShift (Cloud, Minishift, etc.), set this to true.
managedSecurityContext: true

multiCluster.clusterClientTimeout

Time, in seconds, the Kubernetes Operator attempts to connect to a cluster’s Kubernetes API server endpoint. This timeout is set for all Kubernetes clusters in multi-Kubernetes-cluster deployments. If the Kubernetes Operator doesn’t get a response from the Kubernetes API server within the specified time, it logs the cluster’s status as “unhealthy”. To learn more, see Troubleshooting Kubernetes Clusters.

The default value is 10.

Example

copy

multiCluster:
  clusterClientTimeout: 10

namespace

namespaces in which you want to deploy the Kubernetes Operator.

To use a namespace other than the default, specify the namespace in which you want to deploy the Kubernetes Operator.

The default value is mongodb.

Example

copy

# Name of the Namespace to use
namespace: mongodb

needsCAInfrastructure

Flag that determines whether Kubernetes creates a ClusterRole that allows the Kubernetes Operator to sign TLS certificates using the certificates.k8s.io API.

Example

copy

needsCAInfrastructure: true

The default value is true.

operator.deployment_name

Name of the Kubernetes Operator container.

The default value is mongodb-enterprise-operator.

Example

copy

operator:
  deployment_name: mongodb-enterprise-operator

operator.env

Label for the Kubernetes Operators deployment environment. This value affects the default timeouts and the logging level and format:

If the value is	Log Level is set to	Log Format is set to
dev	debug	text
prod	info	json

The default value is prod.

Example

copy

operator:
  # Execution environment for the operator, dev or prod.
  # Use dev for more verbose logging
  env: prod

operator.name

Name that Kubernetes assigns to Kubernetes Operator objects, such as Deployments, ServiceAccounts, Roles, and Pods.

This value also corresponds to the name of the container registry where the Kubernetes Operator is located.

The default value is mongodb-enterprise-operator.

Example

copy

operator:
  name: mongodb-enterprise-operator

operator.version

Version of the Kubernetes Operator that you want to deploy.

The default value is master.

Example

copy

operator:
  version: master

operator.watchNamespace

Namespaces that the Kubernetes Operator watches for MongoDB Kubernetes resource changes. If this namespace differs from the default, ensure that the Kubernetes Operator ServiceAccount can access this namespace.

• To watch all namespaces, specify * and assign the ClusterRole to the mongodb-enterprise-operator ServiceAccount that you use to run the Kubernetes Operator.
• To watch a subset of all namespaces, specify them in a comma-separated list, escape each comma with a backslash, and surround the list in quotes, such as "operator.watchNamespace=ns1\,ns2".

Watching a subset of namespaces is useful in deployments with multiple Kubernetes Operator instances, where each Kubernetes Operator instance watches a different subset of namespaces in your cluster.

Important

To deploy Ops Manager and MongoDB Kubernetes resources to one or more namespaces other than the one where you deploy the Kubernetes Operator, see Set Scope for MongoDB Enterprise Kubernetes Operator Deployment for values you must use and additional steps you might have to perform.

The default value is <metadata.namespace>.

Example

copy

# Watch one namespace
helm install enterprise-operator mongodb/enterprise-operator \
  --set operator.watchNamespace='namespace-to-watch' <...>

Example

copy

# Watch both namespace-a and namespace-b
helm install enterprise-operator mongodb/enterprise-operator \
  --set operator.watchNamespace="namespace-a\,namespace-b"

Example

copy

# Operator with name `mongodb-enterprise-operator-qa-envs` will
# watch ns-dev, ns-qa and ns-uat namespaces

helm install mongodb-enterprise-operator-qa-envs mongodb/enterprise-operator \
  --set operator.watchNamespace="ns-dev\,ns-qa\,ns-uat"

Example

copy

# Operator with name `mongodb-enterprise-operator-staging` will
# watch ns-staging and ns-pre-prod
helm install mongodb-operator helm-chart --set operator.watchNamespace="ns-staging\,ns-pre-prod" mongodb-enterprise-operator-staging

operator.watchedResources

Custom resources that the Kubernetes Operator watches.

The Kubernetes Operator installs the CustomResourceDefinitions for and watches only the resources you specify.

The Kubernetes Operator accepts the following values:

Value	Description
mongodb	Install the CustomResourceDefinitions for database resources and watch those resources.
mongodbusers	Install the CustomResourceDefinitions for MongoDB user resources and watch those resources.
opsmanagers	Install the CustomResourceDefinitions for Ops Manager resources and watch those resources.

Example

copy

operator:
  watchedResources:
    - mongodbusers
    - mongodb
    - opsmanagers

opsManager.name

Name of the Ops Manager image.

The default value is mongodb-enterprise-ops-manager.

Example

copy

opsManager:
  name: mongodb-enterprise-ops-manager

registry.appDb

URL of the repository from which the Kubernetes Operator downloads the Application Database image.

• Kubernetes
• OpenShift

The default value is quay.io/mongodb.

Example

copy

registry:
  appDb: quay.io/mongodb

The default value is registry.connect.redhat.com/mongodb.

Example

copy

registry:
  appDb: registry.connect.redhat.com/mongodb

registry.imagePullSecrets

secret that contains the credentials required to pull images from the repository.

Important

OpenShift requires this setting. Define it in the imagePullSecrets setting in this file or pass it when you install the Kubernetes Operator using Helm. If you use the Kubernetes Operator to deploy MongoDB resources to multiple namespaces or with a cluster-wide scope, create the secret only in the namespace where you installed the Kubernetes Operator. The Kubernetes Operator synchronizes the secret across all watched namespaces.

Example

copy

registry:
# Specify the secret in the ``imagePullSecrets`` setting. If you
# use the MongoDB Kubernetes Operator to deploy MongoDB resources
# into multiple namespaces, create the secret only in the namespace
# where you installed the Operator. The Operator synchronizes
# the secret across all watched namespaces.
  imagePullSecrets: <openshift-pull-secret>

registry.initAppDb

The default value is quay.io/mongodb.

Example

copy

registry:
  initAppDb: quay.io/mongodb

The default value is registry.connect.redhat.com/mongodb.

registry.operator

Repository from which the Kubernetes Operator image is pulled. Specify this value if you want to pull the Kubernetes Operator image from a private repository.

• Kubernetes
• OpenShift

The default value is quay.io/mongodb.

Example

  operator: quay.io/mongodb

The default value is registry.connect.redhat.com/mongodb.
