NetBox is an IP address management (IPAM) and data center infrastructure management (DCIM) tool.
$ helm repo add bootc https://charts.boo.tc
$ helm install bootc/netbox
- This chart has only been tested on Kubernetes 1.12+, but should work on older versions
To install the chart with the release name my-release
and default configuration:
$ helm repo add bootc https://charts.boo.tc
$ helm install --name my-release bootc/netbox
The default configuration includes the required PostgreSQL and Redis database services, but either or both may be managed externally if required.
To delete the chart:
$ helm delete my-release
The chart dependencies on PostgreSQL and Redis have been upgraded, so you may need to take action depending on how you have configured the chart. The PostgreSQL chart was upgraded from 5.x.x to 7.x.x, and Redis from 8.x.x to 9.x.x.

resource. When using
this, the Secret
