= Attach a managed cluster (edge) to the management hub

The use of this  Multicloud GitOps pattern depends on having at least one running Red Hat OpenShift cluster. 

When you install the multi-cloud GitOps pattern, a hub cluster is setup. The hub cluster serves as the central point for managing and deploying applications across multiple clusters.

== Verification

. Go to your managed cluster (edge) OpenShift console and check for the `open-cluster-management-agent` pod being launched. 

[NOTE]
====
It might take a while for the RHACM agent and `agent-addons` to launch.
====

. Check the *Red Hat OpenShift GitOps Operator* is installed. 

. Launch the *Group-One OpenShift ArgoCD* console from nines menu in the top right of the OpenShift console. Verify the applications report the status `Healthy` and `Synched`.

Verify that the *hello-world* application deployed successfully as follows:

. Navigate to the *Networking* -> *Routes* menu options on your managed cluster (edge) OpenShift.

. From the *Project:* drop down select the *hello-world* project. 

. Click the *Location URL*. This should reveal the following:
+
[source,terminal]
----
Hello World!

Hub Cluster domain is 'apps.aws-hub-cluster.openshift.org'
Pod is running on Local Cluster Domain 'apps.aws-hub-cluster.openshift.org'

Verify that the *config-demo* application deployed successfully as follows:

. Navigate to the *Networking* -> *Routes* menu options on your managed cluster (edge) OpenShift.

. Select the *config-demo* *Project*. 

. Click the *Location URL*. This should reveal the following:
