cloud-controller-manager

Synopsis

The Cloud controller manager is a daemon that embeds the cloud specific control loops shipped with Kubernetes.

cloud-controller-manager [flags]

Options

--allocate-node-cidrs
Should CIDRs for Pods be allocated and set on the cloud provider.
--alsologtostderr
log to standard error as well as files
--authentication-kubeconfig string
kubeconfig file pointing at the 'core' kubernetes server with enough rights to create tokenaccessreviews.authentication.k8s.io. This is optional. If empty, all token requests are considered to be anonymous and no client CA is looked up in the cluster.
--authentication-skip-lookup
If false, the authentication-kubeconfig will be used to lookup missing authentication configuration from the cluster.
--authentication-token-webhook-cache-ttl duration     Default: 10s
The duration to cache responses from the webhook token authenticator.
--authorization-always-allow-paths stringSlice     Default: [/healthz]
A list of HTTP paths to skip during authorization, i.e. these are authorized without contacting the 'core' kubernetes server.
--authorization-kubeconfig string
kubeconfig file pointing at the 'core' kubernetes server with enough rights to create subjectaccessreviews.authorization.k8s.io. This is optional. If empty, all requests not skipped by authorization are forbidden.
--authorization-webhook-cache-authorized-ttl duration     Default: 10s
The duration to cache 'authorized' responses from the webhook authorizer.
--authorization-webhook-cache-unauthorized-ttl duration     Default: 10s
The duration to cache 'unauthorized' responses from the webhook authorizer.
--azure-container-registry-config string
Path to the file containing Azure container registry configuration information.
--bind-address ip     Default: 0.0.0.0
The IP address on which to listen for the --secure-port port. The associated interface(s) must be reachable by the rest of the cluster, and by CLI/web clients. If blank, all interfaces will be used (0.0.0.0 for all IPv4 interfaces and :: for all IPv6 interfaces).

The path to the cloud provider configuration file. Empty string for no configuration file.
--cloud-provider string
The provider for cloud services. Empty string for no provider.

--contention-profiling
Enable lock contention profiling, if profiling is enabled
