Konvoy DocumentationThis guide explains how to use the command line to interact with your newly deployed Kubernetes cluster.
Before you start, make sure you have created a workload cluster, as described in Create a New Cluster.
Explore the new Kubernetes cluster
-
Get a kubeconfig file for the workload cluster:
When the workload cluster is created, the cluster lifecycle services generate a kubeconfig file for the workload cluster, and write it to a Secret. The kubeconfig file is scoped to the cluster administrator.
Get the kubeconfig from the Secret, and write it to a file, using this command:
dkp get kubeconfig -c ${CLUSTER_NAME} > ${CLUSTER_NAME}.conf -
List the Nodes using this command:
kubectl --kubeconfig=${CLUSTER_NAME}.conf get nodesNAME STATUS ROLES AGE VERSION ip-10-0-126-209.us-west-2.compute.internal Ready control-plane,master 124m v1.21.3 ip-10-0-204-168.us-west-2.compute.internal Ready <none> 118m v1.21.3NOTE: It may take a few minutes for the Status to move to
Readywhile the Pod network is deployed. The Nodes' Status should change to Ready soon after thecalico-nodeDaemonSet Pods are Ready. -
