This topic describes advanced {jdgserver_name} configurations for {project_name} on Kubernetes.
== Prerequisites
* <@links.ha id="deploy-keycloak-kubernetes" /> as it will be extended.
* <@links.ha id="deploy-infinispan-kubernetes-crossdc" />.
== Procedure
. Prepare an {jdgserver_name} Cache configuration XML from the file `cache-ispn.xml` which is part of the {project_name} distribution:
.. For each `distributed-cache` entry, add the tags `<persistence />` as shown following.
+
[source,xml,indent=0]
----
include::examples/src/kcb-infinispan-cache-remote-store-config.xml[tag=keycloak-ispn-remotestore]
----
<1> New tag `<persistence />` to connect it to the remote store.
<2> For the address to the remote store, reference two environment variables for host name and port number.
<3> For authentication, reference two environment variables for username and password.
<4> To secure the remote store connection, use the Kubernetes mechanisms of the pre-configured truststore.
.. Prepare an {jdgserver_name} Cache configuration XML from the file `cache-ispn.xml`, which is part of the {project_name} distribution.
For each `replicated-cache` entry, add the tag `<persistence />` as shown below.
For additional information on the infinispan configuration options, see the https://docs.jboss.org/infinispan/14.0/configdocs/infinispan-config-14.0.html[infinispan configuration schema reference].
+
[source,xml,indent=0]
----
include::examples/src/kcb-infinispan-cache-remote-store-config.xml[tag=keycloak-ispn-remotestore-work]
----
. Place the {jdgserver_name} Cache configuration XML in a ConfigMap.
+
[source,yaml]
----
include::examples/generated/keycloak-ispn.yaml[tag=keycloak-ispn-configmap]
...
----
. Create a Secret with the username and password to connect to the external {jdgserver_name} deployment:
+
[source,yaml]
----
include::examples/generated/keycloak-ispn.yaml[tag=keycloak-ispn-secret]
----
. Extend the {project_name} Custom Resource with `additionalOptions` and extend the `podTemplate` as shown below.
+
[NOTE]
====
* The new `additionalOptions` entries starting with `remote-store` used here are not official {project_name} configurations.
Instead, they provide their values to environment variables that are then referenced in the {jdgserver_name} XML configuration.
* All the memory, resource and database configurations are skipped from the CR below as they have been described in <@links.ha id="deploy-keycloak-kubernetes" /> {section} already.
Administrators should leave those configurations untouched.
====
+
[source,yaml]
----
include::examples/generated/keycloak-ispn.yaml[tag=keycloak-ispn]
----
<1> Custom cache configuration XML file definition, which includes configuration for remote or embedded {jdgserver_name} store.
<2> The hostname and port of the remote cache {jdgserver_name} cluster.
<3> The credentials required, username and password, to access the remote cache {jdgserver_name} cluster.
<4> Mounting the cache configuration Volume in Kubernetes.
However, matching the `jboss.site.name` with the external {jdgserver_name} deployment site name helps debugging possible future issues.
If you are using multiple sites for {project_name} in a cross-DC setup such as <@links.ha id="deploy-infinispan-kubernetes-crossdc" />, the site name must be different in each site.
<5> `jboss.site.name` is an arbitrary {jdgserver_name} site name which {project_name} needs for its embedded {jdgserver_name} deployment when a remote store is used.
This site name is related only to the embedded {jdgserver_name} and does not need to match any value from the external {jdgserver_name} deployment.
<6> Defining the cache configuration Volume using the already created ConfigMap in Kubernetes.
