Managing Configuration Items

Prerequisites

1. A CCE cluster has been bound to the environment. For details, see Binding a CCE Cluster.
2. The namespace to which the configuration item belongs has been created. For details, see Creating a Namespace.

Creating a Configuration Item

1. Log in to ServiceStage.
2. On the Environment Management page, click the target environment.
3. In the Resource Settings area, choose Cloud Container Engine from Compute.
4. Click Configuration Item > Create Configuration Item.
   ServiceStage allows you to create configuration items in Visualization or YAML mode.

   • Method 1: Visualization
     Configure the configuration item by referring to Table 1. Parameters marked with an asterisk (*) are mandatory.

     *Configuration Name	Name of the configuration item, which must be unique in a namespace.
     *Cluster	Cluster where the configuration item will be used.
     *Namespace	Namespace to which the configuration item belongs. The default value is default.
     Description	Description of the configuration item.
     Configuration Data	Configuration data to be used in applications or used to store configuration data. Key indicates a file name, and Value indicates the content in the file. Click Add Data. Enter the key and value.

   • Method 2: YAML
     

     To create a configuration item by uploading a file, ensure that a configuration item description file has been created. ServiceStage supports files in YAML format. For details, see Configuration Item Requirements.

     1. Select a cluster from the Cluster drop-down list.
     2. (Optional) Click Upload File and select the ConfigMap resource file created locally. Click Open and wait until the upload is successful.
     3. Write or modify the ConfigMap resource file in Orchestration content.

5. Click Create ConfigMap.

   After the configuration item is created, it is displayed in the configuration item list.

Follow-Up Operations

After a configuration item is created, you can search for, view, update, and delete the configuration item by referring to Table 2.

• Deleted items cannot be restored. Exercise caution when performing this operation.
• The configuration item list contains system configuration items, which can only be viewed and cannot be modified or deleted.

Configuration Item Requirements

A configuration item resource file should be in YAML format, and the file size cannot exceed 1 MB.

Example:

apiVersion: v1
data: {}
kind: ConfigMap
metadata:
  annotations:
    description: ''
  labels: {}
  name: configmap-ww8qkl
  namespace: cse
