  1. Ensure that a Kubernetes cluster has been allocated and is running, available, and usable with credentials that have adequate access. This will be likely managed by enterprise IT, whereby either an existing cluster or a new one is made available to use. Please ensure that this step is completed, though the following steps can be accomplished in parallel to having the Kubernetes cluster created/allocated. The link to installing Kubernetes has been provided below, though as mentioned, a specific enterprise team will likely create the cluster/infrastructure.

  2. Ensure that the utility kubectl is installed and functional on the workstation or chosen jumpbox/server. Installation of the utility can be accomplished by following the guide here: https://kubernetes.io/docs/tasks/tools/

  3. Ensure that a context is properly set so that connectivity can be established with your cluster following this guide: https://kubernetes.io/docs/tasks/access-application-cluster/configure-access-multiple-clusters/

  4. To ensure that kubectl is working correctly, the output of the following command should result in the displaying of the namespaces for the context in which you are operating: kubectl get namespaces Note that if this command is not generating output correctly, please invoke the assistance of your enterprise support teams to assist in the installation.

  5. Ensure that Helm is installed and operational by following the guide found here: https://helm.sh/docs/intro/install/

  6. To test that Helm is ready and available, please run: helm version which should generate output similar to: version.BuildInfo{Version:"v3.9.0", GitCommit:"7ceeda6c585217a19a1131663d8cd1f7d641b2a7", GitTreeState:"clean", GoVersion:"go1.18.2"}

  7. Ensure that the version of Helm that is currently being used is 3.0+. e.g. Version:"v3.9.0"
