Installation & Conguration Troubleshooting

installs zkubect
l & zdeploy,
pip3 install -U stups zkubectl get deploy
might need "sudo" get all my application pods
stups configure foo.example.org
zkubectl get pods -l application=APP_NAME
put in ~/.bashrc
see status and
reason
source <(zkubectl completion bash) zkubectl describe pod POD_NAME (e.g. OOM killed
)
put in ~/.zsh
rc

st clusters..
source <(zkubectl completion zsh) zkubectl get pod POD_NAME -o yaml

zkubectl top pod POD_NAME --containers

Cluster Login tail my app logs
zkubectl logs -f [-c CONTAINER_NAME] POD_NAME
shows all available clusters (or check scalyr.com)

only works in te
zkubectl list
zkubectl list-clusters zkubectl exec -it POD_NAME CONTAINER_NAME sh
writes ~/.kube/cong
zkubectl login CLUSTER_ALIAS zkubectl port-forward POD_NAME [LOCAL_PORT:]PORT
zkubectl cluster-info open Kubernetes Dashboard in browser
zkubectl dashboard
does my svc have endpoints?
Architecture
zkubectl describe svc SVC_NAME
ALB congured?
ALB congured via Ingress
zkubectl describe ingress INGRESS_NAME
makes my fan
zkubectl spin

Bootstrapping Deployment Congurations
