## kops

kOps is Kubernetes Operations.

### Synopsis

kOps is Kubernetes Operations.

 kOps is the easiest way to get a production grade Kubernetes cluster up and running. We like to think of it as kubectl for clusters.

 kOps helps you create, destroy, upgrade and maintain production-grade, highly available, Kubernetes clusters from the command line. AWS (Amazon Web Services) is currently officially supported, with Digital Ocean and OpenStack in beta support.

### Options

```
      --alsologtostderrthreshold severity   logs at or above this threshold go to stderr when -alsologtostderr=true (no effect when -logtostderr=true)
      --config string                       yaml config file (default is $HOME/.kops.yaml)
  -h, --help                                help for kops
      --legacy_stderr_threshold_behavior    If true, stderrthreshold is ignored when logtostderr=true (legacy behavior). If false, stderrthreshold is honored even when logtostderr=true
      --name string                         Name of cluster. Overrides KOPS_CLUSTER_NAME environment variable
      --state string                        Location of state storage (kops 'config' file). Overrides KOPS_STATE_STORE environment variable
  -v, --v Level                             number for the log level verbosity
