Red Hat-provided Operator catalogs in OLM v1

Operator Lifecycle Manager (OLM) v1 includes several Red Hat-provided Operator catalogs on the cluster by default. If you want to add a catalog to your cluster, create a custom resource (CR) for the catalog and apply it to the cluster.

The following custom resource (CR) examples show the default catalogs installed on the cluster:

Red Hat Operators catalog

apiVersion: olm.operatorframework.io/v1
kind: ClusterCatalog
metadata:
  name: openshift-redhat-operators
spec:
  priority: -100
  source:
    image:
      pollIntervalMinutes: <poll_interval_duration>
      ref: registry.redhat.io/redhat/redhat-operator-index:v{product-version}
    type: Image

Replace <poll_interval_duration> with the interval in minutes for polling the remote registry for newer image digests. To disable polling, do not set the field.

Certified Operators catalog

apiVersion: olm.operatorframework.io/v1
kind: ClusterCatalog
metadata:
  name: openshift-certified-operators
spec:
priority: -200
  source:
    type: image
    image:
      pollIntervalMinutes: 10
      ref: registry.redhat.io/redhat/certified-operator-index:v{product-version}
    type: Image

Red Hat Marketplace catalog

apiVersion: olm.operatorframework.io/v1
kind: ClusterCatalog
metadata:
  name: openshift-redhat-marketplace
spec:
  priority: -300
  source:
    image:
      pollIntervalMinutes: 10
      ref: registry.redhat.io/redhat/redhat-marketplace-index:v{product-version}
    type: Image

Community Operators catalog

apiVersion: olm.operatorframework.io/v1
kind: ClusterCatalog
metadata:
  name: openshift-community-operators
spec:
  priority: -400
  source:
    image:
      pollIntervalMinutes: 10
      ref: registry.redhat.io/redhat/community-operator-index:v{product-version}
    type: Image

The following command adds a catalog to your cluster:

Command syntax

$ oc apply -f <catalog_name>.yaml

Replace <catalog_name>.yaml with the catalog CR, such as my-catalog.yaml.
