Automation controller custom resources
The automation controller operator provides custom resources for deploying, configuring, and protecting a standalone automation controller instance on OpenShift Container Platform.
The AutomationController custom resource deploys and configures automation controller independently of the full Ansible Automation Platform deployment. Use this custom resource when you need to manage automation controller as a standalone component rather than through the AnsibleAutomationPlatform resource.
The AutomationControllerMeshIngress custom resource creates a mesh ingress hop node inside the OpenShift cluster. This enables remote execution nodes outside the cluster to connect to automation controller through the automation mesh network.
The AutomationControllerBackup and AutomationControllerRestore custom resources manage data protection for standalone automation controller deployments. A backup captures the controller database and configuration. A restore recreates the controller from a previously created backup.
