NAME

9       kubeadm token create - Create bootstrap tokens on the server
10
11
12

SYNOPSIS

14       kubeadm token create [OPTIONS]
15
16
17

DESCRIPTION

19       This  command  will  create a bootstrap token for you.  You can specify
20       the usages for this token, the "time to live"  and  an  optional  human
21       friendly description.
22
23
24       The  [token]  is  the actual token to write.  This should be a securely
25       generated random token of the form "[a-z0-9]{6}.[a-z0-9]{16}".   If  no
26       [token] is given, kubeadm will generate a random token instead.

OPTIONS

31       --certificate-key=""       When  used  together with '--print-join-com‐
32       mand', print the full 'kubeadm join' flag needed to join the cluster as
33       a  control-plane. To create a new certificate key you must use 'kubeadm
34       init phase upload-certs --upload-certs'.
35
36
37       --config=""      Path to a kubeadm configuration file.

41       used.
42
43
44       --groups=[system:bootstrappers:kubeadm:default-node-token]        Extra
45       groups that this token will authenticate as when used  for  authentica‐
46       tion. Must match "\Asystem:bootstrappers:[a-z0-9:-]{0,255}[a-z0-9]\z"
47
48
49       --print-join-command=false       Instead  of  printing  only the token,
50       print the full 'kubeadm join' flag needed to join the cluster using the
51       token.
52
53
54       --ttl=24h0m0s       The  duration  before  the  token  is automatically
55       deleted (e.g. 1s, 2m, 3h). If set to '0', the token will never expire
56
57
58       --usages=[signing,authentication]      Describes the ways in which this
59       token  can  be  used. You can pass --usages multiple times or provide a
60       comma separated list of options.  Valid  options:  [signing,authentica‐
61       tion]
