ibm-common-service-operator

The ibm-common-service-operator is a bridge to connect IBM Cloud Paks and Operand Deployment Lifecycle Manager (ODLM) with IBM Cloud Platform Common Services. You can also install the ibm-common-service-operator in stand-alone mode.

When you install this operator, the operator completes the following tasks:

  • Installs ODLM in all namespaces mode
  • Creates the ibm-common-services namespace
  • Creates the Common Services OperandRegistry and OperandConfig in the ibm-common-services namespace

For more information about installing this operator and other Common Services operators, see Installer documentation. If you are using this operator as part of an IBM Cloud Pak, see the documentation for that IBM Cloud Pak to learn more about how to install and use the operator service. For more information about IBM Cloud Paks, see IBM Cloud Paks that use Common Services.

For more information about the available IBM Cloud Platform Common Services, see the IBM Knowledge Center.
