Helm install on OKD 3.11

Obtain the oc client tool from OKD github releases and install the appropriate binary for your platform. Also, install Docker and configure it to have an insecure registry CIDR of 172.30.0.0/16.

Do a basic localhost install of OKD

oc cluster up

If desired, fix the config for exposing the console and routes outside localhost (127.0.0.1)

oc cluster down
fgrep -RIl 127.0.0.1:8443 ~/openshift.local.clusterup/ | xargs sed -i 's/127.0.0.1:8443/<host IP address>:8443/g'
oc cluster up --public-hostname=<host IP address> --routing-suffix=<host IP address>.nip.io

Create a ServiceAccount and ClusterRoleBinding for Tiller, in advance of the Helm install

oc login -u system:admin
oc create serviceaccount --namespace kube-system tiller
oc create clusterrolebinding tiller-cluster-rule --clusterrole=cluster-admin --serviceaccount=kube-system:tiller

Install Helm while allowing time for the deployment to complete

curl https://raw.githubusercontent.com/helm/helm/master/scripts/get | bash
helm init --history-max 200 && sleep 30
helm version
helm update repo

Patch the Tiller deployment

oc patch deploy --namespace kube-system tiller-deploy -p '{"spec":{"template":{"spec":{"serviceAccount":"tiller"}}}}'

Install an operator from a Helm chart, in this example the Strimzi Kafka Operator

helm repo add strimzi http://strimzi.io/charts/
helm install strimzi/strimzi-kafka-operator

Confirm that the operator install is healthy
