Adding a Cloud Agent to DPOD

Inside DPOD's Web Console, navigate to the cloud agents page [Manage → Topology → Cloud Agents] and click on “New”.

Enter the following information:

Field

Description

Command example for initializing the values*

Manager URL

The URL used by DPOD to interact with the Cloud Agent.

Code Block
languagebash
kubectl get DpodCloudAgent <CR name> -n <CR namespace> -o jsonpath='{.status.endpoints[?(@.name=="managerApi")].url}'

Credentials

Base64 encoded authentication string generated by the Cloud Agent’s Operator.

Code Block
languagebash
kubectl get secret <CR name>-com-enc -n <CR namespace> -o=jsonpath='{.data.encryption\.key}'

*Run the commands from CLI of a server that supports 'kubectl' command and is connected to the K8s environment.
Replace the <CR name> and <CR namespace> before running the command.

Once you click the Add button, DPOD will make sure it can connect to the monitored cloud agent and if successful, the monitored gateways by the cloud agent will be added to DPOD as monitored gateways.
Each monitored gateway is configured automatically to send information to DPOD after added to DPOD.
