# Kubeadm

The purpose of this repo is to aggregate issues filed against the [kubeadm component](https://git.k8s.io/kubernetes/cmd/kubeadm).

**NOTE:** This issue tracker is not designated for providing support for kubeadm users.
Please see the [Support](#support) section below.

## What is Kubeadm ?

Kubeadm is a tool built to provide best-practice "fast paths" for creating Kubernetes clusters.
It performs the actions necessary to get a minimum viable, secure cluster up and running in a user-friendly way.
Kubeadm's scope is limited to the local node filesystem and the Kubernetes API, and it is intended to be a composable building block of higher level tools.


## Common Kubeadm cmdlets
1. **kubeadm init** to bootstrap the initial Kubernetes control-plane node.
1. **kubeadm join** to bootstrap a Kubernetes worker node or an additional control plane node, and join it to the cluster.
1. **kubeadm upgrade** to upgrade a Kubernetes cluster to a newer version.
1. **kubeadm reset** to revert any changes made to this host by kubeadm init or kubeadm join.
