Troubleshooting Docker

Deploying Kubernetes on vSphere

Kubernetes can be installed on vSphere with the help of govc (a vSphere CLI built on top of govmomi):

1. Before starting the setup, we'll have to install golang, which can be done in the following way on a Linux machine:

           $ wget https://storage.googleapis.com/golang/go1.7.3.linux-  
             amd64.tar.gz
       
           $ tar -C /usr/local -xzf go1.7.3.linux-amd64.tar.gz
           
           $ go
       
           Go is a tool for managing Go source code.
           Usage:
             go command [arguments]
   
   

2. Set the go path:

   $ export GOPATH=/usr/local/go
   $ export PATH=$PATH:$GOPATH/bin
   

3. Download the pre-built Debian VMDK, which will be used to create the Kubernetes cluster on vSphere:

           $ curl --remote-name-all https://storage.googleapis.com/
           govmomi/vmdk/2016-01-08/kube.vmdk.gz{,.md5}
