Lifecycle

Caution

Before upgrading to Capacity Planner app version 1.3.0, you must first uninstall all Obcerv apps. Due to Web Platform security changes, you need to upgrade all Obcerv apps at the same time. Make sure that you reinstall the latest mutually compatible versions of Obcerv apps. See the Obcerv Compatibility Matrix.

Install

1. Create a chart config file, named app.yaml containing content similar to:

externalHostname: www.obcerv.local
ingress:
  annotations:
    kubernetes.io/ingress.class: nginx
    nginx.org/mergeable-ingress-type: minion

2. To install the chart, run:

helm install -f app.yaml obcerv-app-capacity-planner itrs/obcerv-app-capacity-planner \
            --version 1.3.0 -n <namespace> --wait

Uninstall

To uninstall, run:

helm uninstall obcerv-app-capacity-planner -n itrs

Upgrade

To upgrade the app, first uninstall and then install it again using the new version.

Configure

To configure the Capacity Planner app:

1. Navigate to Admin > Capacity Planner. You must have the admin role to access this page.
2. Specify your settings.

The following settings are available:

3. Click Test.
4. Click Save.

Proxy settings

Your organisation may offer or require you to use a proxy.

Proxies are often used to improve performance, filter requests, and hide your computer from the internet to improve security. Proxies are often part of corporate firewalls.

Note

In order to be compatible with non-TLS proxies, if LinkerD is installed it is disabled for the Capacity Planner app.
