Manage clusters

Beta

After you enable the Kubernetes core feature, DoiT performs a daily scan to uncover Kubernetes clusters in your cloud environment.

Clusters in the DoiT console​

Kubernetes clusters identified via the daily scan are listed on the Kubernetes assets page in the DoiT console. You can access the page using either of the following ways:

  • Select Integrate from the top navigation bar, select Assets, and then choose Kubernetes from the left-hand menu.

  • Navigate to the Kubernetes Lens dashboard, then select the Manage clusters button.

Kubernetes assets list

  • Name: The cluster name as defined in your cloud environment.

  • Account/Project: AWS account ID or Google Cloud project ID. See Popular dimensions: Project/Account ID.

  • Type: The type of the cluster. Currently, Kubernetes Lens supports EKS and GKE.

  • Region: The region that the cluster was created in.

  • Version: The Kubernetes version of the cluster.

  • Agent status: The status of the Kubernetes Lens agent.

  • Action: Available options.

    • Install agent: Available if the cluster has no agent installed yet.

    • Manage agent: Available if the cluster has an agent installed. This option provides instructions to Upgrade agent and to Delete agent.

Agent status​

The agent status indicates two aspects:

  • Status of data transmission: Whether the agent is transmitting utilization metrics to the DoiT console.

  • Status of the agent: Whether the agent is running on the latest version.

    • Upgrade available: A new version is ready for installation. The agent continues data processing with the current version.

    • Upgrade required: The current version of the agent is outdated. The agent has stopped working.

Upgrade agent​

If the Agent status displays Upgrade available or Upgrade required, selecting Manage agent will show the upgrade instructions.

The --reset-then-reuse-values flag is available in Helm 3.14 or newer versions. It allows you to retain the values from the last deployment and override only the parameters explicitly set. See helm upgrade for details. If you are using an older Helm version, turn the Helm 3.14+ toggle off to regenerate the command.

Delete agent​

This tab displays the kubectl command that you can run to remove the PerfectScale namespace and offboard the cluster.
