Kubernetes Cluster Adminstrator and Platform Adminstrator users can download the Admin Kubeconfig file for a cluster, as follows:

  • Cluster Administrator: Select Download Admin Kubeconfig from the Cluster Operations pull-down menu in the Kubernetes Cluster Details screen. See Viewing Kubernetes Cluster Details.
  • Platform Administrator: Click the Download Admin Kubeconfig icon (down arrow) for the desired cluster in the Kubernetes Clusters screen. See The Kubernetes Clusters Screen.
