Tanzu - Harbor Deployment

Preparing Workload Cluster for standard Tanzu packages (Harbor, Prometheus, etc.)

Documentation: https://docs.vmware.com/en/VMware-Tanzu-Kubernetes-Grid/1.6/vmware-tanzu-kubernetes-grid-16/GUID-packages-prep-tkgs-kapp.html

Step 1) Create workload cluster
Step 2) Install kapp-controller
Step 3) Install cert-manager
Step 4) Implement ingress control with Contour
Step 5) Deploy Harbor

Step 1) Create workload cluster

Use standard procedure to deploy new workload cluster using YAML file.


Step 2) Install kapp-controller (documentation link) - this enables Tanzu package repository to function

1) Install kapp-controller

Use the delivered YAML files from documentation to deploy kapp controller, update fields as needed ,etc. name: tanzu-package-repo-global

  1. kubectl apply -f tanzu-system-kapp-ctrl-restricted.yaml
  2. kubectl apply -f kapp-controller.yaml
  3. kubectl get pods -n tkg-system | grep kapp-controller

2) Add standard packages repository (note namespace: tanzu-package-repo-global)

tanzu package repository add tanzu-standard -n tanzu-package-repo-global --url projects.registry.vmware.com/tkg/packages/standard/repo:v1.6.1

3) Verify repository was added

tanzu package repository list -n tanzu-package-repo-global

4) List packages

tanzu package available list -n tanzu-package-repo-global

Step 3) Install cert-manager (documentation link(note namespace: tanzu-package-repo-global)

tanzu package install cert-manager --package-name cert-manager.tanzu.vmware.com --namespace tanzu-package-repo-global --version 1.7.2+vmware.1-tkg.1 --create-namespace


Step 4) Implement ingress control with Contour (documentation link(note namespace tanzu-package-repo-global)
Generate YAML files following documentation:

tanzu package available get contour.tanzu.vmware.com/1.20.2+vmware.2-tkg.1 --generate-default-values-file

Modify YAML file as needed: type: LoadBalancer

Install the package:

tanzu package install contour \
--package-name contour.tanzu.vmware.com \
--version 1.20.2+vmware.2-tkg.1 \
--values-file contour-default-values.yaml \
--namespace tanzu-package-repo-global

Verify packages are installed

k get apps -A

NAMESPACE                             NAME             DESCRIPTION                  SINCE-DEPLOY               AGE
tanzu-package-repo-global   cert-manager   Reconcile succeeded           8m18s                          50m
tanzu-package-repo-global   contour            Reconcile succeeded          6m21s                          6m30s



Step 5) Deploy harbor (documentation link(note namespace tanzu-package-repo-global)
Generate YAML file from documentation link then modify values as needed

Install the package:

tanzu package install harbor \
--package-name harbor.tanzu.vmware.com \
--version 2.6.1+vmware.1-tkg.1 \
--values-file harbor-default-values.yaml \
--namespace tanzu-package-repo-global

Verify packages are installed

k get apps -A

NAMESPACE                           NAME               DESCRIPTION                SINCE-DEPLOY   AGE
tanzu-package-repo-global   cert-manager   Reconcile succeeded         6m8s                   99m
tanzu-package-repo-global   contour            Reconcile succeeded        3m32s                 55m
tanzu-package-repo-global   harbor              Reconcile succeeded        2m38s                 2m45s


Obtain IP address for Harbor User Interface

kubectl get svc envoy -n tanzu-system-ingress -o jsonpath='{.status.loadBalancer.ingress[0]}'

Update TKG DNS Zone
