2.18. Performance and scalability

Procedure

1. In the OpenShift Container Platform web console, click Operators Installed Operators.
2. Click the Project menu and select the project where you installed the Service Mesh control plane, for example istio-system.
3. Click the Red Hat OpenShift Service Mesh Operator. In the Istio Service Mesh Control Plane column, click the name of your ServiceMeshControlPlane, for example basic.

4. Add the name of your standalone Jaeger instance to the ServiceMeshControlPlane.

   1. Click the YAML tab.

   2. Set the values for spec.proxy.runtime.container.resources.requests.cpu, spec.proxy.runtime.container.resources.requests.memory, components.kiali.container, and components.global.oauthproxy in your ServiceMeshControlPlane resource.
