Creating and Editing a Host Cluster

Prerequisites

• You have the permission to create resources. If not, contact the project administrator to grant you the permission.
• You have created a resource pool if you select Self-hosted as the Execution Resource Pool.

Creating a Host Cluster

1. Go to the Basic Resources page.
   • In the target project, choose Settings > General > Basic Resources. The Host Clusters page is displayed.
   • Choose CICD > Deploy. Click Basic Resources. The Host Clusters page is displayed by default.

2. Create a host cluster.
   Click Create Host Cluster and enter the following information.

   Parameter	Mandatory	Description
   Cluster Name	Yes	3 to 128 digits, letters, hyphens (-), underscores (_), and periods (.).
   OS	Yes	Linux or Windows.
   Host Connection Mode	Yes	Direct connection: Select a host bound with an EIP as the target host to connect to CodeArts. Proxy: Select a host bound with an EIP as the proxy host to connect to CodeArts. If the target host cannot connect to the public network, select the proxy mode.
   Execution Resource Pool	Yes	A resource pool is a collection of physical environments where commands are executed during software package deployment. You can use an official resource pool hosted by Huawei Cloud or host your own servers as a self-hosted resource pool on Huawei Cloud. For details about hosting your own servers, see Self-hosted Resource Pool.
   Description	No	Description of the host cluster. Max. 500 characters.

   NOTE:

   To use a Self-hosted resource pool, perform the following operations:

   • Configure a Self-hosted resource pool by referring to Self-hosted Resource Pool.
   • On the Basic Information tab page of the target application, select Self-hosted for Execution Resource Pool.

   If you select Official or Self-hosted, you can add an IPv6 address for the target host.

3. Click Save.

     NOTE:

     If the target cluster contains resources, clear all resources in it before you delete the cluster.

   • Manage permissions: Click the icon in the Operation column of a cluster and click Manage Permissions to configure operation permissions for each role. Enable or disable permissions as required. For details about the default permissions, see Table 4.
