VIRCTL-remote kubernetes

 

Using virtctl to access virtual machine in Kubernetes

Install the virtctl client tool

Basic VirtualMachineInstance operations can be performed with the stock kubectl utility. However, the virtctl binary utility is required to use advanced features such as:

  • Serial and graphical console access

It also provides convenience commands for:

  • Starting and stopping VirtualMachineInstances
  • Live migrating VirtualMachineInstances
  • Uploading virtual machine disk images

There are two ways to get it:

  • the most recent version of the tool can be retrieved from the official release page
  • it can be installed as a kubectl plugin using krew

Example:

$ export VERSION=v0.48.1
$ wget https://github.com/kubevirt/kubevirt/releases/download/${VERSION}/virtctl-${VERSION}-linux-amd64
$ ln -s virtctl-v0.48.1-linux-amd64 virtctl
$ chmod +x virtctl-v0.48.1-linux-amd64
$ ./virtctl version
Client Version: version.Info{GitVersion:"v0.48.1", ...}

Access the virtual machine console

$ ./virtctl -h
