clouder operator

Manage the Clouder Kubernetes operator. The operator runs inside the cluster and manages custom resources for automated VM provisioning, node pool scaling, and CRIU checkpoint policies.

Commands

clouder operator start

Start the Clouder operator.

clouder operator start

Starts the Kopf-based Kubernetes operator that watches for Clouder CRDs.


clouder operator stop

Stop the Clouder operator.

clouder operator stop

clouder operator crd

Apply the CRD (Custom Resource Definition) definitions to the cluster.

clouder operator crd

Registers the Clouder CRDs with the Kubernetes API server. This must be done before the operator can manage custom resources.


Example

# 1. Apply CRDs to the cluster
clouder operator crd

# 2. Start the operator
clouder operator start

# 3. The operator now watches for Clouder resources
kubectl get crds | grep clouder
