OneClick Install for MAS Core¤
This playbook will install and configure IBM Maximo Application Suite Core along with all necessary dependencies. This can be ran against any OCP cluster regardless of its type, whether it's running in IBM Cloud, Azure, AWS, or your local datacenter. It will take approximately 90 minutes to set up MAS core services and all of its dependencies, at the end of the process you will be able to login to the MAS admin dashboard to install any applications that you wish to use, or you can use our other playbooks to automate the installation of those applications (including any additional dependencies)

Host ID Type | Set to Ethernet Address |
Host ID | Enter any 12 digit hexadecimal string |
Hostname | Set to the hostname of your OCP instance |
Port | Set to 27000 |
The other values can be left at their defaults. Finally, click Generate and download the license file to your home directory as entitlement.lic
, set SLS_LICENSE_FILE
to point to this location.
Usage¤
Required environment variables¤
IBM_ENTITLEMENT_KEY
Lookup your entitlement key from the IBM Container LibraryMAS_INSTANCE_ID
Declare the instance ID for the MAS installMAS_CONFIG_DIR
Directory where generated config files will be saved (you may also provide pre-generated config files here)SLS_LICENSE_ID
The license ID must match the license file available inSLS_LICENSE_FILE
SLS_LICENSE_FILE
The path to the location of the license file.DRO_CONTACT_EMAIL

Storage Class Configuraton¤
Storage class configuration is built into the collection and the playbook will auto-select the appropriate storage classes when it detects the presence of certain storage classes in your cluster (IBM Cloud Storage or OpenShift Container Storage). If you are running the install on a cluster that does not have these storage classes then you will also must configure the following environment variables:
ReadWriteMany Access Mode¤
Usually fulfilled by file storage classes:
PROMETHEUS_ALERTMGR_STORAGE_CLASS
ReadWriteOnce Access Mode¤
Usually fulfilled by block storage classes:
PROMETHEUS_STORAGE_CLASS
PROMETHEUS_USERWORKLOAD_STORAGE_CLASS
GRAFANA_INSTANCE_STORAGE_CLASS
MONGODB_STORAGE_CLASS
UDS_STORAGE_CLASS
Examples¤
Release build¤
The simplest configuration to deploy a release build of IBM Maximo Application Suite (core only) with dependencies is:
export IBM_ENTITLEMENT_KEY=xxx
export MAS_INSTANCE_ID=inst1
export MAS_CONFIG_DIR=~/masconfig
export SLS_LICENSE_ID=xxx
export SLS_LICENSE_FILE=/path/to/entitlement.lic
export UDS_CONTACT_EMAIL=xxx@xxx.com
export UDS_CONTACT_FIRSTNAME=xxx
export UDS_CONTACT_LASTNAME=xxx
oc login --token=xxxx --server=https://myocpserver
ansible-playbook ibm.mas_devops.oneclick_core
Tip
If you do not want to set up all the dependencies on your local system, you can run the install inside our docker image as well: docker run -ti --pull always quay.io/ibmmas/cli
Pre-release build¤
To deploy a pre-release build of IBM Maximo Application Suite (core only) with dependencies a number of additional parameters are required, note that pre-release builds are only available to IBM employees:
export IBM_ENTITLEMENT_KEY=xxx
export ARTIFACTORY_USERNAME=$W3_USERNAME_LOWERCASE
export ARTIFACTORY_TOKEN=xxx
export MAS_ICR_CP=docker-na-public.artifactory.swg-devops.com/wiotp-docker-local
export MAS_ICR_CPOPEN=docker-na-public.artifactory.swg-devops.com/wiotp-docker-local
export MAS_ENTITLEMENT_USERNAME=$W3_USERNAME_LOWERCASE
export MAS_ENTITLEMENT_KEY=$ARTIFACTORY_TOKEN
export MAS_INSTANCE_ID=inst1
export MAS_CONFIG_DIR=~/masconfig
export MAS_CATALOG_SOURCE=ibm-operator-catalog
export MAS_CHANNEL=rp1dev88
export SLS_LICENSE_ID=xxx
export SLS_LICENSE_FILE=/path/to/entitlement.lic
export UDS_CONTACT_EMAIL=xxx@xxx.com
export UDS_CONTACT_FIRSTNAME=xxx
export UDS_CONTACT_LASTNAME=xxx
oc login --token=xxxx --server=https://myocpserver

Tip
Enable login for Maximo Application Suite self-signed certificates.
If you are using self-signed certificates in a development or test environment, you must manually enable login by using either of the following methods:
Download the certificates from the cluster and add them to your local certificate manager.
In your browser, go to the Maximo Application Suite API URL: "https://api.mas_domain/" and then accept the certificate security risks. After you accept the risks, an AIUC01999E error is displayed. This message is expected. You can now continue with the setup process.
