You can also install the platform in stages to help troubleshoot deployment issues. To install the platform in stages: 1. Verify that the namespace in which the Ping Identity Platform is to be installed is set in your Kubernetes context. 2. Identify the size of the cluster you're deploying the platform on. You'll specify the cluster size as an argument to the forgeops install command: * \--cdk for a CDK deployment * \--small, --medium, or --large, for a CDM deployment 3. Install the `base` and `ds` components first. Other components have dependencies on these two components: 1. Install the platform `base` component: ``` $ cd /path/to/forgeops/bin $ ./forgeops install base --size --fqdn myfqdn.example.com Checking secret-agent operator and related CRDs: secret-agent CRD not found. Installing secret-agent. namespace/secret-agent-system created ...

After you've installed the `base` component, install the `ds` component: ``` $ ./forgeops install ds --size Checking secret-agent operator and related CRDs: secret-agent CRD found in cluster. Checking ds-operator and related CRDs: ds-operator CRD found in cluster. Installing component(s): ['ds'] directoryservice.directory.forgerock.io/ds-idrepo created Enjoy your deployment! ``` 4. Install the other Ping Identity Platform components. You can either install all the other components by using the forgeops install apps command, or install them separately: 1. Install AM: ``` $ ./forgeops install am --size Checking secret-agent operator and related CRDs: secret-agent CRD found in cluster. Checking ds-operator and related CRDs: ds-operator CRD found in cluster. Installing component(s): ['am'] service/am created deployment.apps/am created Enjoy your deployment! ``` 2. Install Amster: ``` $ ./forgeops install amster --size Checking secret-agent operator and related CRDs: secret-agent CRD found in cluster. Checking ds-operator and related CRDs: ds-operator CRD found in cluster. Installing component(s): ['amster'] job.batch/amster created Enjoy your deployment! ``` 3. Install IDM: ``` $ ./forgeops install idm --size Checking secret-agent operator and related CRDs: secret-agent CRD found in cluster. Checking ds-operator and related CRDs: ds-operator CRD found in cluster. Installing component(s): ['idm'] configmap/idm created configmap/idm-logging-properties created service/idm created deployment.apps/idm created Enjoy your deployment! ``` 5. Install the user interface components. You can either install all the applications by using the forgeops install ui command, or install them separately: 1. Install the administration UI: ``` $ ./forgeops install admin-ui --size Checking secret-agent operator and related CRDs: secret-agent CRD found in cluster. Checking ds-operator and related CRDs: ds-operator CRD found in cluster. Installing component(s): ['admin-ui'] service/admin-ui created deployment.apps/admin-ui created Enjoy your deployment! ``` 2. Install the login UI: ``` $ ./forgeops install login-ui --size Checking secret-agent operator and related CRDs: secret-agent CRD found in cluster. Checking ds-operator and related CRDs: ds-operator CRD found in cluster. Installing component(s): ['login-ui'] service/login-ui created deployment.apps/login-ui created Enjoy your deployment! ``` 3. Install the end user UI: ``` $ ./forgeops install end-user-ui --size Checking secret-agent operator and related CRDs: secret-agent CRD found in cluster. Checking ds-operator and related CRDs: ds-operator CRD found in cluster. Installing component(s): ['end-user-ui'] service/end-user-ui created deployment.apps/end-user-ui created Enjoy your deployment! ``` 6. In a separate terminal tab or window, run the kubectl get pods command to monitor status of the deployment. Wait until all the pods are ready. ## Multiple component installation You can specify multiple components with a single forgeops install command. For example, to install the `base`, `ds`, `am`, and `amster` components in the CDK or CDM: ``` $ ./forgeops install base ds am amster --size ```
