Download the following file from Fix Central:

  • 6.2.0.0-IBMControlCenterforLinux64Container-iFix04.zip

Clone this repository

  1. Login on OpenShift
git clone https://github.com/ebasso/sterling-b2b-oncloud.git

cd sterling-b2b-oncloud/scc-openshift-ibmcloud

Create a new project on OpenShift for scc

  1. Login on OpenShift
oc login --token=sha256~... --server=https://...containers.cloud.ibm.com:31234
  1. Create a new project on OpenShift for scc
oc new-project sterling-scc

Setup Container Images on Registry

Setup RH OpenShift Image Registry

Upload images to Registry

  1. Get and export variable
oc get route image-registry -n openshift-image-registry

export MY_IMG_REGISTRY=image-registry-openshift-image-registry....us-south.containers.appdomain.cloud
  1. Change to scc Project and export project
oc project sterling-scc

export MY_SCC_PROJECT=sterling-scc
  1. Browse to the location where you have downloaded the scc container image.
unzip 6.2.0.0-IBMControlCenterforLinux64Container-iFix04.zip
  1. Login to Registry. Load/tag/push and check.
docker login -u $(oc whoami) -p $(oc whoami -t) $MY_IMG_REGISTRY

docker load -i ibmscc_6.2.tar

docker tag scc-docker-image:6.0.2.0     $MY_IMG_REGISTRY/$MY_SCC_PROJECT/scc-docker-image:6.0.2.0

docker push $MY_IMG_REGISTRY/$MY_SCC_PROJECT/scc-docker-image:6.0.2.0
  1. Check result
oc get imagestream
  1. Returno do previous directory and extract the helm charts
cd <CHANGE HERE>/scc-openshift-ibmcloud

tar -xzvf <Downloads_Directory>/ibm-scc-helmchart-1.0.0.tgz

Deploy DB2 for SCC on OpenShift

Follow the article Deploy DB2 for SCC on OpenShift to setup toolkit

Deploy Sterling Toolkit on OpenShift

Follow the article Deploy Sterling Toolkit on OpenShift to setup toolkit

Deploy scc on OpenShift

Setup directories and files on Toolkit Container

  1. Get pod information
oc project sterling-tookit

oc get pods

NAME                         READY   STATUS    RESTARTS   AGE
sterling-tookit-59..         1/1     Running   0          73m

Export Toolkit Pod

export  MY_TOOLKIT_POD=sterling-tookit-59..
  1. Connect to Pod and setup directories
oc rsh pod/$MY_TOOLKIT_POD
cd /var/nfs-data/

mkdir -p scc

chmod -R a+rwx scc

chown -R 1001:1001 scc 

exit

Define Security

  1. Define our project
oc project sterling-scc
  1. Change directory and setup permissions on OpenShift
cd ibm-scc/ibm_cloud_pak/pak_extensions/pre-install/clusterAdministration

sh createSecurityClusterPrereqs.sh

cd ../../../../..
  1. Change Rolebinding
cd ibm-scc/ibm_cloud_pak/pak_extensions/pre-install/namespaceAdministration

sh createSecurityNamespacePrereqs.sh sterling-scc

cd ../../../../..

Configure Storage for scc

  1. Locate the required information on the default storage volume
oc get pv -n openshift-image-registry

NAME       CAPACITY ACCESS MOD  RECLAIM POLICY  STATUS  CLAIM                                              STORAGECLASS    
...                           
pvc-99...  100Gi    RWX           Delete          Bound   openshift-image-registry/image-registry-storage  ibmc-file-gold      
...
  1. Get the details of the PV
oc describe pv pvc-99...

...
failure-domain.beta.kubernetes.io/region=us-south
failure-domain.beta.kubernetes.io/zone=dal10
...
Type:   NFS (an NFS mount that lasts the lifetime of a pod)
Server: fsf-xxxxxxx-xx.adn.networklayer.com
Path:   /IBMxxSEVxxxxxxx_xx/data01
...
  1. Create file my-scc-pv.yaml, change from previous command:
cp scc-pv-nfs.yaml my-scc-pv-nfs.yaml
  1. Allocate PV/PVC
oc create -f my-scc-pv-nfs.yaml

Configuring Secrets

  1. Change file my-scc-secrets.yaml for ccDBPassword and cognosDBPassword
echo -n "db2pw123" | base64
  1. Change file my-scc-secrets.yaml for adminPassword
echo -n "passw0rd" | base64
  1. Create secrets
cp scc-secrets.yaml my-scc-secrets.yaml

oc create -f my-scc-secrets.yaml

Deploy with Helm

  1. Create file my-scc-override.yaml, and change
cp scc-override.yaml my-scc-override.yaml
  1. Deploy with Helm
cd ibm-scc

helm install scc --namespace sterling-scc --timeout 120m0s -f ../my-scc-override.yaml .

You can check install using this commands:

$ oc get pods
NAME              READY   STATUS    RESTARTS   AGE
sccXXXXX   1/1     Running   0          24s

$ oc logs -f sccXXXXX
$ oc get svc
NAME            TYPE           CLUSTER-IP      EXTERNAL-IP     PORT(S)           AGE
sccXXXXX       LoadBalancer   172.xx.xx.132   52.xxx.xxx.16   ..../TCP   5m46s
