Creating Grafana Datasorce instance from Custom Resource managed by the RedHat community powered Grafana operator

The grafana-serviceaccount serviceAccount, created during Grafana instance deployment, was created alongside the Grafana instance. You need grant the grafana-serviceaccount access rights to the ibm-spectrum-scale-operator clusterRole:

# oc adm policy add-cluster-role-to-user ibm-spectrum-scale-operator -z grafana-serviceaccount

Create the bridge-grafanadatasource GrafanaDataSource from the yaml file:

# oc apply -f https://raw.githubusercontent.com/IBM/ibm-spectrum-scale-bridge-for-grafana/master/examples/openshift_deployment_scripts/grafana_datasource_deployment/grafana-bridge-datasource.yaml

Verify the bridge-grafanadatasource instance from the type GrafanaDatasource has been deployed:

# oc get GrafanaDatasource -n grafana-for-cnsa
NAME                       AGE
bridge-grafanadatasource   2d1h

# oc describe GrafanaDataSource bridge-grafanadatasource -n grafana-for-cnsa
