Configure scaling

You can improve your system availability and reliability by scaling your suite resources as required. You can scale single nodes, as well as multiple nodes.

By managing your resources, you can scale your system out or in. For example, by increasing a deployment's number of pod replicas, the deployment's load is automatically distributed across all pods.

How to scale a BVD deployment horizontally

Launch the ITOM Platform from a supported web browser:

https://<external_access_host>:5443

<external_access_host> is the fully qualified domain name of the host which you specified as EXTERNAL_ACCESS_HOST in the install.properties file during the ITOM Platform installation. Usually, this is the master node's FQDN.
Log in as the admin user.
Go to Resources, and click All namespaces. In the drop-down list, select the namespace for the Operations Bridge Suite that was assigned during the installation (for example opsbridge).
Go to Workloads > Deployments. You can either scale out the receiver load (bvd-receiver-deployment), or the web server load (bvd-www-deployment).
For the deployment you want to scale out, click Actions and select View/edit YAML. The Edit a Replica Set window opens.
Edit the line spec replicas : 1. Increase the number of pod replicas as required.
Click Update.
Wait until the deployment is updated. This might take a few minutes.
Optional. You can verify that the deployment has been updated correctly:
1. Refresh the Deployments page. For the deployment you selected, the number of pods should have increased (for example 2/2 instead of 1/1).
2. Go to Workloads > Replica Sets, and verify that the number of the deployment's pod replicas increased as specified. The age displays for how long the pods have been running.
