Abstract
Chapter 1. Adding services to a cluster using Red Hat OpenShift Cluster Manager console
1.1. Prerequisites
-
For the Amazon CloudWatch service, you must first install the

1.2. Adding a service to a cluster
You can add a service to an existing Red Hat OpenShift Service on AWS cluster through Red Hat OpenShift Cluster Manager.
Prerequisites
- You have created and provisioned a cluster for Red Hat OpenShift Service on AWS.
- Your cluster meets all of the prerequisites for the service that you want to add on to your cluster.
For paid add-on services, note the following considerations:
- If the organization has sufficient quota, and if the service is compatible with the cluster, the service appears in OpenShift Cluster Manager.
- If the organization has never had quota, or if the cluster is not compatible, then the service does not display.
-
If the organization had quota in the past, but the quota is currently
0
, the service is still visible but disabled in OpenShift Cluster Manager until you get more quota.
To add a service to a cluster, you must be the cluster owner.
Procedure
- Navigate to the Clusters page in OpenShift Cluster Manager.
- Select the cluster you want to add a service to.
- Click the Add-ons tab.
Click the service option you want to add, click Install. An installing icon appears, indicating that the service has begun installing.
A green check mark appears in the service option when the installation is complete. You might have to refresh your browser to see the installation status.
- When the service is Installed, click View in console to access the service.
1.3. Accessing installed services on your cluster
After you successfully install a service on your cluster, you can access the service through the OpenShift console.
Prerequisites
- You have successfully installed a service on your Red Hat OpenShift Service on AWS cluster.
Procedure
- Navigate to the Clusters page in OpenShift Cluster Manager.

You have now accessed your service and can begin using it.
1.4. Deleting a service from Red Hat OpenShift Cluster Manager
You can delete the add-on services from your Red Hat OpenShift Service on AWS cluster through the OpenShift Cluster Manager.
