Manage configuration for a kubeadm cluster persisted in a ConfigMap in the cluster

Synopsis

There is a ConfigMap in the kube-system namespace called "kubeadm-config" that kubeadm uses to store internal configuration about the cluster. kubeadm CLI v1.8.0+ automatically creates this ConfigMap with the config used with 'kubeadm init', but if you initialized your cluster using kubeadm v1.7.x or lower, you must use the 'kubeadm init phase upload-config' command to create this ConfigMap. This is required so that 'kubeadm upgrade' can configure your upgraded cluster correctly.

kubeadm config [flags]

Options

-h, --help

help for config

--kubeconfig string     Default: "/etc/kubernetes/admin.conf"

Options inherited from parent commands

--rootfs string

The path to the 'real' host root filesystem. This will cause kubeadm to chroot into the provided path.

Read an older version of the kubeadm configuration API types from a file, and output the similar config object for the newer version

Synopsis

This command lets you convert configuration objects of older versions to the latest supported version, locally in the CLI tool without ever touching anything in the cluster. In this version of kubeadm, the following API versions are supported:

  • kubeadm.k8s.io/v1beta4

Further, kubeadm can only write out config of version "kubeadm.k8s.io/v1beta4", but read both types. So regardless of what version you pass to the --old-config parameter here, the API object will be read, deserialized, defaulted, converted, validated, and re-serialized when written to stdout or --new-config if specified.

In other words, the output of this command is what kubeadm actually would read internally if you submitted this file to "kubeadm init"

kubeadm config migrate [flags]

Options

--allow-experimental-api

Allow migration to experimental, unreleased APIs.

-h, --help

help for migrate

--new-config string

Path to the resulting equivalent kubeadm config file using the new API version. Optional, if not specified output will be sent to STDOUT.

--old-config string

Path to the kubeadm config file that is using an old API version and should be converted. This flag is mandatory.

Options inherited from parent commands
