Chapter 2. Accessing the web console
The OpenShift Container Platform web console is a user interface accessible from a web browser. Developers can use the web console to visualize, browse, and manage the contents of projects.
2.1. Prerequisites
- JavaScript must be enabled to use the web console. For the best experience, use a web browser that supports WebSockets.
- Review the OpenShift Container Platform 4.x Tested Integrations page before you create the supporting infrastructure for your cluster.
2.2. Understanding and accessing the web console
The web console runs as a pod on the control plane node. The static assets required to run the web console are served by the pod.
After you install OpenShift Container Platform using the openshift-install create cluster
command, you can find the web console URL and login credentials for the installed cluster in the CLI output of the installation program. For example:
Example output
INFO Install complete! INFO Run 'export KUBECONFIG=<your working directory>/auth/kubeconfig' to manage the cluster with 'oc', the OpenShift CLI. INFO The cluster is ready when 'oc login -u kubeadmin -p <provided>' succeeds (wait a few minutes). INFO Access the OpenShift web-console here: https://console-openshift-console.apps.demo1.openshift4-beta-abcorp.com INFO Login to the console with user: kubeadmin, password: <provided>
Use those details to log in and access the web console.
For existing clusters that you did not install, you can use oc whoami --show-console
to see the web console URL.
The dir
parameter specifies the assets
directory, which stores the manifest files, the ISO image, and the auth
directory. The auth
directory stores the kubeadmin-password
and kubeconfig
files. As a kubeadmin
user, you can use the kubeconfig
file to access the cluster with the following setting: export KUBECONFIG=<install_directory>/auth/kubeconfig
. The kubeconfig
is specific to the generated ISO image, so if the kubeconfig
is set and the oc
command fails, it is possible that the system did not boot with the generated ISO image. To perform debugging, during the bootstrap process, you can log in to the console as the core
user by using the contents of the kubeadmin-password
file.
