Creating an RHACS Cloud Service instance for Kubernetes clusters
Access Red Hat Advanced Cluster Security Cloud Service (RHACS Cloud Service) by selecting an instance in the Red Hat Hybrid Cloud Console. An ACS instance contains the RHACS Cloud Service management interface and services that Red Hat configures and manages for you. The management interface connects to your secured clusters, which contain the services that scan and collect information about vulnerabilities. One instance can connect to and monitor many clusters.
Creating an instance in the console
In the Red Hat Hybrid Cloud Console, create an ACS instance to connect to your secured clusters.
