I dont see

rdctl

has ability to pull down the

kubeconfig

from the VM, do we have any plan to support that command if not happy to request for that feature

Hi, not sure if that is really needed. In case the rd is properly installed, one can use

kubectl config view --raw

to get the

kubeconfig

or simply cp from

~/.kube/config

As @freezing-airplane-30363 said, it is already on your local machine. If for whatever reason you need an "unmerged" copy, you could fetch it with

rdctl shell sudo cat /etc/rancher/k3s/k3s.yaml

You will need to make sure k3s is properly initialized, so you get a working copy and not a stale one. RD takes care of that for the config that is merged into your

~/.kube/config

OK. thanks. Its more of convenience when my default Kubeconfig is kind of have huge list and I just need RD ( thought I can do that with jq/yq)

I am also looking at way to replace the 127.0.0.1 address in the config with RD IP
