Other Commands:

version Print the client and server version information
Use “kubectl <command> –help” for more information about a given command.
Use “kubectl options” for a list of global command-line options (applies to all commands).
mohammedrafi@NOC-RAFI:~$ kubectl help config
Modify kubeconfig files using subcommands like “kubectl config set current-context my-context”
The loading order follows these rules:
1. If the –kubeconfig flag is set, then only that file is loaded. The flag may only be set once and no merging takes
place.
2. If $KUBECONFIG environment variable is set, then it is used a list of paths (normal path delimitting rules for your
system). These paths are merged. When a value is modified, it is modified in the file that defines the stanza. When a
value is created, it is created in the first file that exists. If no files in the chain exist, then it creates the last
file in the list.
3. Otherwise, ${HOME}/.kube/config is used and no merging takes place.
Available Commands:
current-context Displays the current-context
delete-cluster Delete the specified cluster from the kubeconfig
delete-context Delete the specified context from the kubeconfig
get-clusters Display clusters defined in the kubeconfig
get-contexts Describe one or many contexts
rename-context Renames a context from the kubeconfig file.
set Sets an individual value in a kubeconfig file
set-cluster Sets a cluster entry in kubeconfig
set-context Sets a context entry in kubeconfig
set-credentials Sets a user entry in kubeconfig
unset Unsets an individual value in a kubeconfig file
use-context Sets the current-context in a kubeconfig file
view Display merged kubeconfig settings or a specified kubeconfig file
Usage:
kubectl config SUBCOMMAND [options]
Use “kubectl <command> –help” for more information about a given command.
