Helm & Tiller

Currently, Helm 2.xx is supported. Support for Helm 3 is to be determined, since each Kubernetes user will need separate access. The automation of this is being reviewed by the Orka development team.

Follow the guide:

https://helm.sh/docs/using_helm/#tiller-and-role-based-access-control

The sandbox namespace based tiller RBAC RoleBinding has already been created, and ensure a local copy of Tiller is running. After that, begin guide at:

$ helm init --service-account tiller --tiller-namespace sandbox

Additional commands & limitations

RBAC access is enabled, not all commands will function because of permissions. See a full list of commands at:
