GitOps-managed OpenShift ServiceMesh

This guide details the implementation and configuration steps to setup OpenShift Service Mesh (OSSM) v2.1, including Control Plane and dependent components and operators.

Do not use the base directory directly, as you will need to patch the channel based on the version of OpenShift you are using, or the version of the operator you want to use.

Provision OpenShift Service Mesh with the OpenShift CLI

TIP: Commands are shown from the root of a clone of this Git repository.

Install the OpenShift Elasticsearch operator:

oc apply -k elasticsearch-operator/overlays/stable

Install the OpenShift Distributed Tracing operator:

oc apply -k openshift-distributed-tracing-operator/overlays/stable

Install the Kiali operator:

oc apply -k kiali-operator/overlays/stable

Install OpenShift Service Mesh:

oc apply -k openshift-servicemesh/operator/overlays/stable

Configure the service mesh control plane (for example in the istio-system namespace):

oc new-project istio-system
oc apply -k openshift-servicemesh/instance/overlays/default -n istio-system

How to use this library

You can remotely target the provided overlays and combine them, for example:

apiVersion: kustomize.config.k8s.io/v1beta1
kind: Kustomization

  - https://github.com/RHC-STP-OSSM/GitOps-OSSM/openshift-servicemesh/instance/overlays/default

Note: You will also need to create the namespace(s) where you decide to install the control place (e.g. istio-system)

You may also want to supplement, overwrite, or merge your own configuration along with the artifacts from this library. An example repository is provided that can be used as a starting point for managing a cluster using these core templates. The example repository contains a reference kustomization and ArgoCD Application.
