DOCS-1273: Operator 6.0.0 Deploy/Upgrade docs, removing Console references (#1284)
Addresses #1273 

# Summary

This pass does three things:

1. Updates all tutorials related to Operator/Tenant deployment for
Kustomize and Helm
2. Removes references to Operator Console + updates to reference
Kustomize/Helm wherever possible
3. Slightly tidies up old or dangling references

This pass does not do these things:

- Link out heavily to Kubernetes docs (for later)
- Clean up organization (singleplat build handles this)
- Addresses OpenShift, Rancher, etc.

Deploy Operator With Helm
=========================

Overview
--------
Helm is a tool for automating the deployment of applications to Kubernetes clusters.
A `Helm chart <https://helm.sh/docs/topics/charts/>`__ is a set of YAML files, templates, and other files that define the deployment details.
The following procedure uses a Helm Chart to install the :ref:`MinIO Kubernetes Operator <minio-operator-installation>` to a Kubernetes cluster.
Prerequisites
-------------
See the :ref:`Operator Prerequisites <minio-operator-prerequisites>` for a baseline of requirements.
Helm installations have the following additional requirements:
* `Helm <https://helm.sh/docs/intro/install/>`__ (Use the Version appropriate for your Kubernetes API version)
* `yq <https://github.com/mikefarah/yq/#install>`__
For more about Operator installation requirements, including supported Kubernetes versions and TLS certificates, see the :ref:`Operator deployment prerequisites <minio-operator-prerequisites>`.
This procedure assumes familiarity with the referenced Kubernetes concepts and utilities.
While this documentation may provide guidance for configuring or deploying Kubernetes-related resources on a best-effort basis, it is not a replacement for the official :kube-docs:`Kubernetes Documentation <>`.
.. _minio-k8s-deploy-operator-helm-repo:
Install the MinIO Operator using Helm Charts
--------------------------------------------
The following procedure installs the Operator using the MinIO Operator Chart Repository.
This method supports a simplified installation path compared to the :ref:`local chart installation <minio-k8s-deploy-operator-helm-local>`.
You can modify the Operator deployment after installation.
.. important::
If you use Helm charts to install the Operator, you must use Helm to manage that installation.
Do not use ``kubectl krew``, Kustomize, or similar methods to update or manage the MinIO Operator installation.
#. Add the MinIO Operator Repo to Helm
MinIO maintains a Helm-compatible repository at https://operator.min.io.
Add this repository to Helm:
.. code-block:: shell
:class: copyable
helm repo add minio-operator https://operator.min.io
You can validate the repo contents using ``helm search``:
.. code-block:: shell
:class: copyable
helm search repo minio-operator
The response should resemble the following:
.. code-block:: shell
:class: copyable
NAME CHART VERSION APP VERSION DESCRIPTION
minio-operator/minio-operator 4.3.7 v4.3.7 A Helm chart for MinIO Operator
minio-operator/operator 6.0.1 v6.0.1 A Helm chart for MinIO Operator
minio-operator/tenant 6.0.1 v6.0.1 A Helm chart for MinIO Operator
The ``minio-operator/minio-operator`` is a legacy chart and should **not** be installed under normal circumstances.
#. Install the Operator
Run the ``helm install`` command to install the Operator.
The following command specifies and creates a dedicated namespace ``minio-operator`` for installation.
MinIO strongly recommends using a dedicated namespace for the Operator.
.. code-block:: shell
:class: copyable
helm install \
--namespace minio-operator \
--create-namespace \
operator minio-operator/operator
#. Verify the Operator installation
Check the contents of the specified namespace (``minio-operator``) to ensure all pods and services have started successfully.
.. code-block:: shell
:class: copyable
kubectl get all -n minio-operator
The response should resemble the following:
.. code-block:: shell
NAME READY STATUS RESTARTS AGE
pod/minio-operator-699f797b8b-th5bk 1/1 Running 0 25h
pod/minio-operator-699f797b8b-nkrn9 1/1 Running 0 25h
NAME TYPE CLUSTER-IP EXTERNAL-IP PORT(S) AGE
service/operator ClusterIP 10.43.44.204 <none> 4221/TCP 25h
service/sts ClusterIP 10.43.70.4 <none> 4223/TCP 25h
NAME READY UP-TO-DATE AVAILABLE AGE
deployment.apps/minio-operator 2/2 2 2 25h
NAME DESIRED CURRENT READY AGE
replicaset.apps/minio-operator-79f7bfc48 2 2 2 123m
You can now :ref:`deploy a tenant using Helm Charts <deploy-tenant-helm>`.
.. _minio-k8s-deploy-operator-helm-local:
Install the MinIO Operator using Local Helm Charts
--------------------------------------------------
The following procedure installs the Operator using a local copy of the Helm Charts.
This method may support easier pre-configuration of the Operator compared to the :ref:`repo-based installation <minio-k8s-deploy-operator-helm-repo>`
#. Download the Helm charts
On your local host, download the Operator Helm charts to a convenient directory:
.. code-block:: shell
:class: copyable
:substitutions:
curl -O https://raw.githubusercontent.com/minio/operator/master/helm-releases/operator-|operator-version-stable|.tgz
#. (Optional) Modify the ``values.yaml``
The chart contains a ``values.yaml`` file you can customize to suit your needs.
For details on the options available in the MinIO Operator ``values.yaml``, see :ref:`minio-operator-chart-values`.
For example, you can change the number of replicas for ``operators.replicaCount`` to increase or decrease pod availability in the deployment.
See :ref:`minio-operator-chart-values` for more complete documentation on the Operator Helm Chart and Values.
For more about customizations, see `Helm Charts <https://helm.sh/docs/topics/charts/>`__.
#. Install the Helm Chart
Use the ``helm install`` command to install the chart.
The following command assumes the Operator chart is saved to ``./operator`` relative to the working directory.
.. code-block:: shell
:class: copyable
helm install \
--namespace minio-operator \
--create-namespace \
minio-operator ./operator
#. To verify the installation, run the following command:
.. code-block:: shell
:class: copyable
kubectl get all --namespace minio-operator
If you initialized the Operator with a custom namespace, replace
``minio-operator`` with that namespace.
The output resembles the following:
.. code-block:: shell
NAME READY STATUS RESTARTS AGE
pod/minio-operator-7976b4df5b-rsskl 1/1 Running 0 81m
pod/minio-operator-7976b4df5b-x622g 1/1 Running 0 81m
NAME TYPE CLUSTER-IP EXTERNAL-IP PORT(S) AGE
service/operator ClusterIP 10.110.113.146 <none> 4222/TCP,4233/TCP 81m
NAME READY UP-TO-DATE AVAILABLE AGE
deployment.apps/minio-operator 2/2 2 2 81m
NAME DESIRED CURRENT READY AGE
replicaset.apps/minio-operator-7976b4df5b 1 1 1 81m
You can now :ref:`deploy a tenant using Helm Charts <deploy-tenant-helm>`.
