2. Navigate to the Workloads → Pods page and check the logs in any pods in the openshift-file-integrity project that are reporting issues.

Installing the File Integrity Operator using the CLI¶

Install the File Integrity Operator from the OpenShift CLI (oc) by creating Namespace, OperatorGroup, and Subscription objects.

Prerequisites

• You must have admin privileges.

Procedure

1. Create a Namespace object YAML file by running:
   terminal

   $ oc create -f <file_name>.yaml

   Example output

   apiVersion: v1
   kind: Namespace
   metadata:
     labels:
       openshift.io/cluster-monitoring: "true"
       pod-security.kubernetes.io/enforce: privileged
     name: openshift-file-integrity

   Note

   In OpenShift Container Platform 4.22, the pod security label must be set to privileged at the namespace level.

2. Create the OperatorGroup object YAML file:
   terminal

   $ oc create -f <file-name>.yaml

   Example output

   apiVersion: operators.coreos.com/v1
   kind: OperatorGroup
   metadata:
     name: file-integrity-operator
     namespace: openshift-file-integrity
   spec:
     targetNamespaces:
     - openshift-file-integrity

3. Create the Subscription object YAML file:
   terminal

   $ oc create -f <file-name>.yaml

   Example output

   apiVersion: operators.coreos.com/v1alpha1
   kind: Subscription
   metadata:
     name: file-integrity-operator
     namespace: openshift-file-integrity
   spec:
     channel: "stable"
     installPlanApproval: Automatic
     name: file-integrity-operator
     source: redhat-operators
     sourceNamespace: openshift-marketplace

Verification

1. Verify the installation succeeded by inspecting the CSV file:
   terminal

   $ oc get csv -n openshift-file-integrity

2. Verify that the File Integrity Operator is up and running:
   terminal

   $ oc get deploy -n openshift-file-integrity
