For operation or administration reasons, you may want to enable DataPower Web UI in your Kubernetes cluster.

Below are the 4 steps you need to perform that:

• Create ConfigMap to persis DataPower Configuration

cat <<EOF | kubectl apply -f -
kind: ConfigMap
apiVersion: v1
metadata:
  name: dp-webui-config
data:
  datapower.cfg: |
    # configuration to enable web-mgmt and xml-mgmt
    top; configure terminal;
    web-mgmt
      admin-state enabled
      idle-timeout 9000
    exit
    xml-mgmt
      admin-state enabled
    exit
EOF

• Patch the deployment DataPowerService with ConfigMap

...
  domains:
      dpApp:
        config:
            - dp-webui-config # from step 1
            - apis-minimum-gw-default-domain-config
..

• Get DataPower Admin password

$ oc get secret $(oc get secret |  grep gw-admin | awk '{ print $1 }') --template="" | base64 -d 

• Create the Web UI Route

$ oc create route passthrough --service=<gw-datapower-service> --port=9090
