NKP ZeroTouch Framework
Nutanix Kubernetes Platform deployment console
Recommended Operator Actions
Highest-signal actions based on current state, drift, evidence, and production gate checks.
Environment Profiles
Deployment targets, readiness signals, gate state, and next operator action.
| Name | Type / Channel | Lifecycle / Readiness | Deploy Gate | Drift | Evidence | Next Action | Manage |
|---|
Recent Runs
Latest framework executions captured under the local .zt workspace.
Destructive and apply actions are intentionally CLI-only. This console exposes validation, preparation, generation, verification, backup, and run inspection workflows.
Setup and Install
Editable first-run configuration for source bundles, endpoints, inventory, network, provider, and secret backend metadata.
| Area | Current Value | Manage |
|---|---|---|
| NKP version | ||
| Standard bundle | ||
| Prism Central endpoint | ||
| Inventory nodes | ||
| Secret backend |
Environment Config Files
Config records expose add, edit, duplicate, and delete actions before operational use.
| Name | File | Provider | Manage |
|---|
Jobs
Execution queue, approval controls, and captured logs.
| Job | Action | Status | Requester | Approval |
|---|
Runs
Latest framework execution summaries.
Pipeline
ZeroTouch phase progression for a controlled NKP rollout.
CLI
Apply-class commands require explicit flags and approval.
PS C:\workspace\nkp-zerotouch-framework>
Allowed apply examples: registry --apply, deploy --apply, upgrade --apply, destroy --apply --confirm-destroy.
Artifacts
Generated plans, reports, logs, state, and configuration evidence.
| Artifact | Type | Environment | Status |
|---|
Evidence Packs
Reviewable evidence bundles created by the evidence phase under .zt/evidence.
| Pack | Environment | Created | Files | Redaction | Open |
|---|
Evidence packs exclude raw kubeconfig and local secret values. Generated plans and logs can still contain topology, VIPs, endpoints, and environment names.
UAT Readiness
Maps documented UAT cases to local evidence records, evidence packs, jobs, backups, and run history.
| Case | Status | Required Result | Evidence Requirement |
|---|
Deployment Evidence Records
Controlled-UAT evidence captured from local phase outputs.
| Environment | Status | Signal Coverage | Boundary |
|---|
UAT evidence is an operational readiness signal, not production validation. Partial coverage means the console found a candidate local signal; an operator still needs reviewed outcomes, exceptions, owners, and environment-specific acceptance before calling UAT complete.
Restore
Controlled backup-manifest review, restore plan generation, and approval request workflow.
Restore Plans
Clean metadata can request approval; blocked plans require operator remediation first.
| Environment | Plan | Status | Action |
|---|
The approval job records authorization only. This demo, and the local console baseline, do not copy files or restore live infrastructure.
