  • Show details of cluster, including editing the cluster, health status, and recent events
• Action menubar
  • Create a new cluster (Default and Custom configuration)
• Grid action menu
  • View the YAML for a cluster
  • Delete a cluster

List all Clusters

Summary of a cluster

Details of a cluster

The details page provides all the information related to the cluster. The user has the option to edit some settings for the cluster, including:

• Control Plane - Number of replicas and the VM Class
• Nodepools - Number of replicas, VM Class, and adding or editing Volumes

Actions

There is a single action available in the list view. The Create button provides two options for creating Tanzu Kubernetes Clusters. You can create clusters with Default settings or customize the cluster’s settings. Only VMware provided Cluster Class is supported to customize the cluster.

Create a new cluster - Default configuration

Create a new cluster - Custom configuration

Once you have selected to create a custom cluster, you will need to navigate through the wizard.

For the General Settings section, you can accept all the defaults or override one or more fields.

Next configure the settings for the Control Plane.

• Number of Replicas - how many control plane VMs do you want to configure (1 or 3)
• VM Class - the amount of resources to allocate to each control plane VM
• Storage Class - the storage class to use for any volumes created
• TKR OSImage Format - select Photon or Ubuntu
• Volumes (optional) - add any additional volumes you want available in the control plane

You must configure at least one nodepool.

When configuring a nodepool, you must at least specify the TKR OSImage format. All other fields are defaulted but can be overridden.

• Name
• Class
• Replicas
• VM Class
• Storage Class
• TKR OSIMage Format
• Labels
• Volumes - if you choose to add volumes to the nodepool, an additional step is added to the wizard to allow customization of volumes.

Review the details of the Nodepool configuration and confirm.

Click on Next once you are done with Nodepool configuration.

Review the details of the cluster configuration and click FINISH to create your cluster.

Grid action menu

There are two actions available from the grid menu.

1. Viewing the YAML for the resource
2. Deleting the Cluster
