Helm Installation Step

Open calvinwonghk opened this issue 4 years ago • 3 comments

Describe the solution you'd like I tried to install trident via Helm, but it keeps saying "Error: INSTALLATION FAILED: Chart.yaml file is missing. Referring to other products on the market, they use simple add repo.

e.g. "helm repo add kasten https://charts.kasten.io/"

that saved the day, would consider using that?

Describe alternatives you've considered Need to use back old school installation method by using installer

Additional context Need more info to troubleshoot the issues !! already using debug but no ideas what need to be done to fix the installation issues

Hi

take a look at this page: https://artifacthub.io/packages/helm/netapp-trident/trident-operator

you can install trident through the following repo: helm repo add netapp-trident https://netapp.github.io/trident-helm-chart then the installation will be done with: helm install my-trident-operator netapp-trident/trident-operator --version 21.7.2

hope this helps

Can the helm repo install method be added to the documentation? Is this prefered over downloading the tar and installing that way?

I prefer it as it means you get the lastest updates without having to do the tar extraction and makes it more CI/CD friendly
