Kubernetes Dashboard Addon

Introduction

The Kubernetes Dashboard Addon is an open-source, general purpose, web-based Kubernetes user interface and is enabled by default across all platforms.

Description

Users can employ the Dashboard to:

• Deploy containerized applications to a Kubernetes cluster
• Troubleshoot containerized application
• Manage cluster resources
• See an overview of running cluster applications
• Create or modify individual Kubernetes resources

Settings

To access and modify these settings, go to the Infrastructure page, check the radio button next to the cluster you wish to modify, then click edit.

This will open a new page where the changes can be reviewed or applied. Scroll down the page to the Cluster Add-ons area to enable the Kubernetes Dashboard Configuration section.

For more in depth information about accessing the Kubernetes dashboard, see our articles regarding launching the Kubernetes dashboard locally or connecting to the dashboard remotely.
