DNS

Renku requires a DNS domain.

Get a domain name from a registrar. Create an A record pointing to the load balancer and, optionally, a wildcard CNAME:

NAME

TYPE

TARGET

TTL

renku.mydomain.ch

A

load balancer IP

15 min.

*.renku.mydomain.ch

CNAME

renku.mydomain.ch

15 min.

If GitLab is deployed as part of Renku, its registry needs a domain too. For instance: registry.renku.mydomain.ch.

Now, check the DNS setup:

$ curl -v http://mydomain.ch/

The output should be:

default backend - 404
