kubeadm-init-phase-bootstrap-token(1)

NAME

kubeadm init phase bootstrap-token - Generates bootstrap tokens used to join a node to a cluster

SYNOPSIS

kubeadm init phase bootstrap-token [OPTIONS]

DESCRIPTION

Bootstrap tokens are used for establishing bidirectional trust between a node joining the cluster and a control-plane node.

This command makes all the configurations required to make bootstrap tokens works and then creates an initial token.

OPTIONS

--config=""
Path to a kubeadm configuration file.

--dry-run=false
Don't apply any changes; just output what would be done.

--kubeconfig="/etc/kubernetes/admin.conf"
The kubeconfig file to use when talking to the cluster. If the flag is not set, a set of standard locations can be searched for an existing kubeconfig file.

--skip-token-print=false
Skip printing of the default bootstrap token generated by 'kubeadm init'.

OPTIONS INHERITED FROM PARENT COMMANDS

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

--version=false
--version, --version=raw prints version information and quits; --version=vX.Y.Z... sets the reported version

EXAMPLE

  # Make all the bootstrap token configurations and create an initial token, functionally
  # equivalent to what generated by kubeadm init.
  kubeadm init phase bootstrap-token
