FAQPage Schema
How do I verify environment readiness and tool installation before deploying to OpenShift?▼

Environment readiness is verified by checking for required tool installations such as oc, helm, podman, and git, alongside testing OpenShift cluster connectivity and permissions to ensure deployment prerequisites are met.

What is a pre-deployment environment check and when do I need it?▼

A pre-deployment environment check identifies missing tools, verifies cluster connectivity, and confirms permissions. You need this validation before executing rh-developer skills to ensure all operational components are properly configured and available.

Do I need specific container tools like podman and skopeo to validate cluster connectivity?▼

Validating the operational environment requires container tools including oc, helm, podman, git, and skopeo. These tool installations are checked during the pre-deployment stage to ensure cluster connectivity and permissions are properly configured.

How can I check for missing tools and permissions before running rh-developer skills?▼

You can check for missing tools and permissions by running a pre-deployment validation script. This script identifies missing tool installations, verifies cluster connectivity, and checks permissions to ensure full readiness for rh-developer skill execution.

What are the limitations of using a basic environment validation script for pre-deployment checks?▼

A basic environment validation script focuses solely on identifying missing tools, checking cluster connectivity, and verifying permissions. It does not perform the actual deployment but serves strictly as a pre-check for rh-developer skill execution readiness.
