Creating a Context from Scratch

This procedure is useful if we install kubectl only on a remote client machine and we need it to configure it to connect to a Kubernetes cluster.

./kubectl config set-cluster test  --server=https://10.10.2.87 --certificate-authority=~/tmp/kubespray/kubespray-2.11.0/inventory/playground/credentials/kubeadm_certificate_key.creds

Configure context and user

./kubectl config use-context test
