Prodfiler host agent

This chart installs Prodfiler host agent in your cluster. The agent is deployed as a DaemonSet and requires a privileged security context as it needs access to the node kernel features.

Quick start installation

Create a namespace to host Prodfiler (and optionally label it), here we use prodfiler:

kubectl create ns prodfiler
kubectl label ns prodfiler app=pf-host-agent provider=optimyze

Add the Helm repository hosting the Optimyze charts, you only need to run this when first installing:
```
helm repo add optimyze https://optimyze.cloud/helm-charts
```
Fetch the projectID, secretToken and accessToken values visible in the Prodfiler web UI when creating a new project. The accessToken value is displayed as password for the docker login command. The projectID and secretToken values are defined as environment variables in the deployment command, they are called PRODFILER_PROJECT_ID and PRODFILER_SECRET_TOKEN respectively.

Use the values in the following command, replacing the placeholders:
```
helm install --namespace=prodfiler pf-host-agent \
--set "projectID=<projectID>,secretToken=<secretToken>" \
--set "dockerHub.password=<accessToken>" \
optimyze/pf-host-agent
```

Customizing values

For more complex deployment you may want to customize Helm values. You can list the possible values using:

helm show values optimyze/pf-host-agent

The most notable configuration knobs are nodeSelector and tolerations to deploy Prodfiler Host Agent only to a subset of nodes in your cluster.
