# Minimal Mode

# Preparations

  1. Please confirm that the existing Kubernetes cluster meets the Prerequisites.

  2. In minimal mode, all components of Erda will be deployed as a single copy, which is only suitable for trial environment. For production environment, see High-Availability Mode.

  3. Add Erda Helm Chart repository and update.

    helm repo add erda https://charts.erda.cloud/erda
    helm repo update
    
    Copied!

# Operations

Run the following command to install Erda to the namespace erda-system and wait for all Erda components to be ready.

helm install erda erda/erda -n erda-system --create-namespace
Copied!

Tips

  • Speicify the identifier of the cluster where Erda is located by --set erda.clusterName, which is local-cluster by default。
  • The default access to Erda is erda.io, and you can specify it with --set global.domain.
  • If you cannot directly access the internal domain name (such as kubernetes.default.svc.cluster.local) on the Kubernetes node, you need to specify node to install Registry with hostNetwork, and specify --set registry.custom.nodeIP="",registry .custom.nodeName="", otherwise the pipeline function is not available.
  • You can install the specified version of Erda via --version parameter, otherwise the latest version will be installed by default.

# Verification

Tips

Please provide the Erda namespace deployed, such as erda-system.

You can run the following command to verify installation result:

  • Verify Erda status

    $ kubectl get erda erda -n erda-system
    NAME   STATUS    LASTMESSAGE
    erda   Running   create dice cluster success
    
    Copied!
  • Verify Erda dependencies

    $ kubectl get statefulset -n erda-system
    NAME                       READY   AGE
    erda-cassandra-dc1-rack1   1/1     72s
    erda-elasticsearch         1/1     77s
    erda-etcd                  1/1     77s
    erda-kafka                 1/1     77s
    erda-mysql                 1/1     77s
    erda-registry              1/1     77s
    erda-zookeeper             1/1     77s
    rfr-erda-redis             1/1     75s
    
    Copied!

After verification, you need to make some simple configurations to access Erda. For details, see Configuration and Access.
