Verify prerequisites exist (Secret + ConfigMap)

oc -n openshift-config get secret rhds-ldap-secret

oc -n openshift-config get configmap rhds-ca-config-map

OAuth LDAP configuration references these objects. If they don’t exist, OAuth won’t be able to bind to LDAP securely.

Edit the cluster OAuth resource

oc edit oauth cluster

The oauth/cluster resource is where identity providers are defined.

Add an LDAP identity provider entry (example structure) Add under spec.identityProviders:

- name: corp-ldap

mappingMethod: claim

type: LDAP

ldap:

url: "ldaps://ldap.example.com:636/ou=People,dc=example,dc=com?uid"

bindDN: "uid=openshift,ou=svc,dc=example,dc=com"

bindPassword:

name: rhds-ldap-secret

ca:

name: rhds-ca-config-map

insecure: false

attributes:

id: ["dn"]

name: ["cn"]

preferredUsername: ["uid"]

email: ["mail"]

url: where to search for users and which attribute is used for login (here uid).

bindDN + bindPassword: service account used for LDAP queries.

ca: trusts the LDAP server CA for TLS.

attributes: maps LDAP data into OpenShift user identity fields.

Restart OAuth pods to load changes quickly

oc -n openshift-authentication delete pod -l app=oauth-openshift

This forces pods to restart and re-read the updated configuration.

Verify the identity provider appears and users can log in

In the web console login page, you should see the new provider (name may show as corp-ldap).

After a successful login, confirm user objects appear:

oc get users

oc get identities

OpenShift creates User and Identity objects upon first successful authentication.

Create a secret for cloud credentials (S3-compatible example)

oc -n openshift-adp create secret generic cloud-credentials \

--from-file=cloud=/path/to/credentials

Velero uses this secret to authenticate to object storage.

Create/Update the DataProtectionApplication (DPA)

Apply a DPA CR that defines:

backupLocations (bucket, endpoint URL, region, etc.)

snapshotLocations (if using snapshots)

Verify BackupStorageLocation and SnapshotLocation

velero backup-location get

velero snapshot-location get

Status should be Available, meaning storage config is valid.
