Configure Kubernetes cluster integration

You can enable any integration associated with a Kubernetes cluster through the Add Integration wizard.

  1. In your values.yaml file, set the swoagent.enabled option to true:

    swoagent:
    	# Whether the SWO Agent should be deployed as part of this chart.
    	# If not, integrations are not available.
       enabled: true

    For an example, see values.yaml in the SWO K8s Collector GitHub repository.

  2. In SolarWinds Observability, click Add Data at the top.

  3. In the Add Data dialog, click Integration, and then click the integration type associated with the Kubernetes cluster.

  4. In the Add integration wizard, select an Agent with the following naming convention: <cluster-name>-swo-agent-0. Click Next.

  5. In Capture Method, select Off Host. Click Next.

  6. Complete the wizard. The steps depend on the integration type. See Configure native OTel integrations for details.

All integrations associated with Kubernetes clusters are grouped by type on the Overview tab of the Kubernetes Cluster details page in the Entity Explorer. You can also view and filter the integrations on the Integrations tab. Clicking the Endpoint name then takes you to the integration dashboard. See Dashboards.
