Accessing the ConfigWizard admin console in a container environment
This topic describes how you can access the ConfigWizard admin console in a container environment from your local system. The ConfigWizard admin console opens to the TCP port number 10203, but this port cannot be accessed directly via the Kubernetes ingress controller. Hence, use the following instructions to access the ConfigWizard console.
Procedure
- Connect to your Kubernetes cluster from your workstation via CLI.
For instructions, refer to the documentation of your cloud platform provider.
- Use the following command to find your deployment name
space:
kubectl get <namespace>
Example:sh-3.2$ kubectl get ns NAME STATUS AGE default Active 336d eks-n0-clstrhyb-rel Active 11h eks-rel-helm-fresh Active 15h kube-node-lease Active 336d kube-public Active 336d kube-system Active 336d
- Use the following command to find your DX core pod
name:
kubectl get pods -n <namespace>
Example:sh-3.2$ kubectl get pods -n eks-rel-helm-fresh NAME READY STATUS RESTARTS AGE dx-deployment-ambassador-7f954c7d74-46km2 1/1 Running 0 15h dx-deployment-ambassador-7f954c7d74-vfzxw 1/1 Running 0 15h dx-deployment-ambassador-7f954c7d74-wtfqq 1/1 Running 0 15h dx-deployment-ambassador-redis-6c5b8f84c6-7bw8r 1/1 Running 0 15h dx-deployment-ambassador-redis-6c5b8f84c6-j9s7v 1/1 Running 0 15h dx-deployment-ambassador-redis-6c5b8f84c6-nf7p5 1/1 Running 0 15h dx-deployment-content-composer-5cb56f94d8-wlnqw 1/1 Running 0 15h dx-deployment-core-0 3/3 Running 1 15h dx-deployment-design-studio-65d4bdbd89-hh62t 1/1 Running 0 15h dx-deployment-digital-asset-management-0 1/1 Running 4 15h dx-deployment-image-processor-96dc59fcf-956wz 1/1 Running 0 15h dx-deployment-open-ldap-0 1/1 Running 0 15h dx-deployment-persistence-connection-pool-75b77b8b86-pmfrz 1/1 Running 0 15h dx-deployment-persistence-node-0 2/2 Running 0 15h dx-deployment-persistence-node-1 2/2 Running 0 15h dx-deployment-persistence-node-2 2/2 Running 0 15h dx-deployment-remote-search-0 3/3 Running 0 15h dx-deployment-ring-api-845658b658-tt588 1/1 Running 0 15h dx-deployment-runtime-controller-7d9df9db98-h4mrf 1/1 Running 0 15h
- Enable port-forwarding to your
workstation.
kubectl port-forward <dx-core pod-name> 10203:10203 -n <namespace>
Note: Ensure that the port-forwarding service keeps running in your terminal to access the ConfigWizard admin console.Example:sh-3.2$ kubectl port-forward dx-deployment-core-0 10203:10203 -n eks-rel-helm-fresh Forwarding from 127.0.0.1:10203 -> 10203 Forwarding from [::1]:10203 -> 10203
