With the upcoming end-of-life (EOL) of MSR 3.1.x, Mirantis encourages you to upgrade to the latest supported version to ensure continued support and security updates.

Create Kubernetes resources

To create the Kubernetes resources, you must have the kubectl command line tool configured to communicate with your Kubernetes cluster, through either a Kubernetes configuration file or an MKE client bundle.

Note

The documentation herein assumes that you have the necessary file structure on your workstation.

To create the Kubernetes resources:

1. Create a Kubernetes namespace to logically separate all of the MSR cache components:

   kubectl create namespace msr
   

2. Create the Kubernetes Secrets that contain the MSR cache TLS certificates and a Kubernetes ConfigMap that contains the MSR cache configuration file:

   kubectl -n msr create secret generic msr-certs \
     --from-file=certs/msr.cert.pem \
     --from-file=certs/cache.cert.pem \
     --from-file=certs/cache.key.pem
   
   kubectl -n msr create configmap msr-cache-config \
     --from-file=config.yaml
   

3. Create the Kubernetes deployment:

   kubectl create -f msrcache.yaml
   

4. Review the running Pods in your cluster to confirm successful deployment:

   kubectl -n msr get pods
   

5. Optional. Troubleshoot your deployment:

   kubectl -n msr describe pods <pods>
   
   and / or
   

   `kubectl -n msr logs <pods>
