[Kiali] Verify sidecar injection of proxy sidecars

    XMLWordPrintable

Details

    Description

      As a Service Mesh user enabling side car injection, I have documentation for verifying that proxies have successfully been added using Kiali.

      When enabling side car injection, add steps to verify that the proxies have successfully been added using Kiali. Point out that proxy logs and Proxy configuration can be accessed via kiali. There is a separate issue to provide instructions on kiali logs: https://issues.redhat.com/browse/OSSMDOC-337, thus don't need to reproduce here. Explain that proxy configuration is managed by the control plane, though it can be viewed via Kiali for debugging/validation purposes. Kiali also provides some explanation of the log values (some of this content could go in the troubleshooting section, but we should mention this here).

      Add a new module - Validating the sidecar injection using Kiali. (Before Updating application pods module?)

      Overview

      Graph page - Badge for missing sidecar

      Istio Config page - Displays the YAML files, highlights the misconfiguration (does NOT note missing sidecar, as it's defined in the Deployment file)

      Kiali validation for sidecars

      https://kiali.io/docs/features/validations/#sidecars

      NOTE - make sure to include the validation code (for example, KIA1003) as the Kiali configuration lets users set Kiali to ignore validations using their ID.
