Install PGO
You can install PGO from the repo using the commands below:
kubectl apply -k kustomize/install/namespacekubectl apply --server-side -k kustomize/install/default
This will create a namespace called postgres-operator and create all of the objects required to deploy PGO.
To check on the status of your install, you can run:
kubectl -n postgres-operator get pods \--selector=postgres-operator.crunchydata.com/control-plane=postgres-operator \--field-selector=status.phase=Running
If the PGO Pod is healthy, you should see output similar to:
NAME READY STATUS RESTARTS AGEpostgres-operator 1/1 Running 0 3s
