Prepare MKE for MSR Install

Important

The information herein is targeted solely to Kubernetes deployments.

To install MSR on MKE you must first configure both the default:postgres-operator user account and the default:postgres-pod service account in MKE with the privileged permission.

To prepare MKE for MSR install:

1. Log in to the MKE web UI.

2. In the left-side navigation panel, click the <user name> drop-down to display the available options.

3. For MKE 3.6.0 or earlier, click Admin Settings > Orchestration. For MKE 3.6.1 or later, click Admin Settings > Privileges.

4. Navigate to the User account privileges section.

5. Enter <namespace-name>:postgres-operator into the User accounts field.

   Note

   You can replace <namespace-name> with default to indicate the use of the default namespace.

6. Select the privileged check box.

7. Scroll down to the Service account privileges section.

8. Enter <namespace-name>:postgres-pod into the Service accounts field.

   Note

   You can replace <namespace-name> with default to indicate the use of the default namespace.

9. Select the privileged checkbox.

10. Click Save.

For already deployed MSR instances, issue a rolling restart of the postgres-operator deployment:

kubectl rollout restart deploy/postgres-operator
