Procedure

1. Create a new project in the OpenShift Container Platform web console for this procedure. This example uses a project called my-etcd.

2. Navigate to the Operators Installed Operators page. The Operators that have been installed to the cluster by the cluster administrator and are available for use are shown here as a list of cluster service versions (CSVs). CSVs are used to launch and manage the software provided by the Operator.

   提示

   You can get this list from the CLI using:

   $ oc get csv

3. On the Installed Operators page, click Copied, and then click the etcd Operator to view more details and available actions.

   As shown under Provided APIs, this Operator makes available three new resource types, including one for an etcd Cluster (the EtcdCluster resource). These objects work similar to the built-in native Kubernetes ones, such as Deployment or ReplicaSet, but contain logic specific to managing etcd.

4. Create a new etcd cluster:

   1. In the etcd Cluster API box, click Create New.
   2. The next screen allows you to make any modifications to the minimal starting template of an EtcdCluster object, such as the size of the cluster. For now, click Create to finalize. This triggers the Operator to start up the pods, services, and other components of the new etcd cluster.

5. Click the Resources tab to see that your project now contains a number of resources created and configured automatically by the Operator.

   Verify that a Kubernetes service has been created that allows you to access the database from other pods in your project.

6. All users with the edit role in a given project can create, manage, and delete application instances (an etcd cluster, in this example) managed by Operators that have already been created in the project, in a self-service manner, just like a cloud service. If you want to enable additional users with this ability, project administrators can add the role using the following command:

   $ oc policy add-role-to-user edit <user> -n <target_project>
