Introduction The File Integrity Operator is used to watch for changed files on any node within an OpenShift cluster. Once deployed and configured, it will watch a set of pre-configured locations and report if any files are modified in any way that were not approved. This operator works in sync with MachineConfig so if you update a file through MachineConfig, once the files are updated, the File Integrity Operator will update its database of signatures to ensure that the approved changes do not trigger an alert.

Introduction After running an OpenShift or Kubernetes cluster for a little while you find that you need to create reports on specific data about the cluster itself. Reporting on things like Project owners, container images in use, and project quota are just some of the things you might be asked about. There are multiple ways to do this, such as writing your own application that queries the API, or creating a shell script that wraps a bunch of cli commands.

Introduction In the last two posts, I have shown you how to get an OKD All-in-One cluster up and running. Since it was an “All-in-One” cluster, there was no redundancy in it, and there was no ability to scale out. OKD and Kubernetes work best in a multi-server deployment, creating redundancy and higher availability along with the ability to scale your applications horizontally on demand. This final blog post is going to outline the steps to build a multi-host cluster.
