Access UI Using FQDN for Production Footprint

You must perform the following steps to access the
VMware Telco Cloud Service Assurance
UI using Fully Qualified Domain Name (FQDN).
  1. Update the
    dashboardAccess.ip
    in
    /tcx-deployer/product-helm-charts/tcsa/values-user-overrides.yaml
    with the FQDN that you want to use to access the
    VMware Telco Cloud Service Assurance
    UI.
    Example: appDeploymentInterval: 2s dashboardAccess: # (string) The IP address for accessing the dashboard. If using a static pre-allocated IP, set this property on Day 0 (fresh deployment). If using a dynamically allocated IP, set this on Day 1 (post deployment) ip: <your FQDN> # (string) Can be either NodePort or LoadBalancer. Defaults to NodePort for TKG and LoadBalancer for Azure/AWS. For on-prem it can be either. type: <NodePort or LoadBalancer>
  2. Run
    tcxctl deploy product tcsa
    for the changes to take place.
    export TCSA_WORK_SPACE=/root/base cd $TCSA_WORK_SPACE ./tcxctl deploy product --name tcsa --kubeconfig <KUBECONFIG> --registry-password <REGISTRY PASSWORD> --registry-username <REGISTRY USERNAME> --timeout=5 --path $TCSA_WORK_SPACE/tcx-deployer/product-helm-charts/tcsa
    • The
      --registry-cert
      is an optional parameter. If you are using a self-signed certificate Harbor, you must pass a certificate path value to it.
    • Ensure that the
      --registry-password
      is passed inside single quotation if you are passing this to the installation script.
    The
    VMware Telco Cloud Service Assurance
    UI becomes accessible with the FQDN.
  3. Run the following command to check the
    root_url
    in
    grafana-ini
    config map to check that the Grafafana pads have restarted.
    kubectl get cm grafana-ini -n tcsa-system -o yaml apiVersion: v1 data: grafana.ini: | [server] protocol = http http_port = 3000 domain = localhost root_url = https://<FQDN>:443/adhoc/ ----> Should point to the FQDN now instead of the IP
  4. Access
    VMware Telco Cloud Service Assurance
    using the FQDN.
