Clone Otomi Instance

It may happen that you need to move Otomi to another Kubernetes cluster. Because Otomi is a GitOps driven platfrom, you can export existing values that can then be used to install a new Otomi instance.

This procedure does not cover cloning the persistent volumes from your old cluster.

Prerequisites​

  • Otomi version >= v2.6

Steps​

Download values file​

  1. Sign in as an admin

It is advised to keep this file save as it contains passwords and access credentials.

Use the values to install a new Otomi instance​

Depending on your use case, you may need to change some settings from the values.yaml file before using it to install a new Otomi instance. The most common use cases:

  • Change the domianSuffix
  • Change the team service URLs
  • Change the access credentials to cloud resources
  • Change the Otomi license key

Once the values.yaml file is ready you can use Helm to install Otomi on to a new Kubernetes cluster:

helm install -f values.yaml otomi otomi/otomi
