Playing with Karbon | Nutanix Community
Skip to main content
Hello All



I am new to Nutanix and new to Kubernetes so my apologises for the newbie questions?



I've played with docker and kubernetes on my Windows machine but having a brain freeze transitioning to the karbon cluster.



How do I get kubectl to use my configure file I downloaded from Karbon?



Currently kubectl is only talking to my docker VM's?



Many thanks in advance

J
Would this help at all:

Hi Thewanandonly,



Please see this Kubernetes documentation for more information:

https://kubernetes.io/docs/concepts/configuration/organize-cluster-access-kubeconfig/



In summary, you have 3 options:


  1. Place the kubeconfig file in ~/.kube/config
  2. Set it as an environment variable ($ export KUBECONFIG=karbon-kubectl.cfg)
  3. Specify it each time you run a kubectl command ($ kubectl --kubeconfig karbon-kubectl.cfg get pods)
