Dear submitter - thank you for your enhancement. The online documentation was updated to remove examples and calls out that the user must specifically understand service annotations requirements of their cloud provider where the k8s cluster is running. If your issue is with the Turbonomic ngnix parameters outside of the service annotations, then this is a defect, which should be handled with a support ticket. Thank you for your input!
Dear Guest - I am not sure what you mean "tried all permutations and combinations". I looked at the support ticket. There were 2 issues:
AWS specific knowledge as to what service annotations are required to create the best AWS LB for the use case and support of AWS provided cert. This is outside of Turbo.
If the issue was ensuring that the nginx service has https redirect disabled, and following the parameters required in the helm chart did not work, then this should be taken back to Turbo Engineering because something was not working in the way the Custom Resource was configuring the nginx deployment. It would have easily been solved with an update to the helm chart and the CR/CRD.
Yes, tried all permutations and combinations. It did not work. Please review the history in the support ticket: https://support.turbonomic.com/hc/requests/122619
Regarding setting an environment parameter for the nginx container component via the deployment this is already supported:
https://github.com/turbonomic/t8c-install/blob/10eebb4664b92624b2bcace66a50a737e6815cb9/operator/helm-charts/base/nginx/templates/nginx.yaml#L70
Did you try setting the following in the CR?
spec:
nginx:
nginxIsPrimaryIngress: true
httpsRedirect: false
But this helm chart says that both nginxIsPrimaryIngress and httpsRedirect are required. Maybe the enhancement is that the user should not need to specify the parameter of nginxIsPrimaryIngress (which is what the helm chart is telling me both are required).
We will not provide examples, and I will remove from the documentation.
The expectation is that a user understands how LBs work in their CLoud Provider, AND that our nginx component is only a SERVICE. So the user must understand all service annotations options to work with their cloud provider's load balancers.
