Kubernetes Cluster Integration

Step 1: Prepare Cluster Details

1. Secret Name

   • Choose a unique name for your cluster secret.
     Example: k8s-cluster-secret

2. Cluster Name

   • This is the name of your Kubernetes cluster.
     Example: my-kubernetes-cluster

💡 If you are using K3s:
You can install it using the following command:

curl -sfL https://get.k3s.io | INSTALL_K3S_EXEC="server --disable=traefik" sh -

3. Kube Config

   • Locate your kubeconfig file at ~/.kube/config.

   • Copy the full YAML content — it includes cluster access credentials.

   • For reference, see the official docs:
     Kubernetes kubeconfig documentation

   • To check your cluster name, run:

     kubectl config get-clusters

---

Step 2: Add Cluster Credentials in Cokpit

1. Open Cokpit → Integrations → Kubernetes Cluster → Add Secret.

2. Enter the following details:
   • Secret Name
   • Cluster Name
   • Kube Config
3. Click Submit to save the cluster credentials.

Once saved, your Kubernetes cluster will be securely connected to Cokpit and ready to use.
