2V0-71.23 Question 141
Select 3You are tasked with attaching an external Kubernetes cluster to VMware Tanzu Mission Control (TMC) for centralized management. Which of the following steps must you perform to successfully attach the cluster?
- A
Download the Tanzu Mission Control agent configuration YAML file and apply it to the cluster.
- B
Ensure the Kubernetes cluster is running a Tanzu Kubernetes Grid (TKG) version.
- C
Authenticate to Tanzu Mission Control using your API token.
- D
Create a new cluster group in Tanzu Mission Control to assign the cluster to.
- E
Use the Tanzu CLI to generate the Kubernetes cluster's kubeconfig file.
Show answer and explanation
Correct answers: A, C, D
Explanation
To attach a Kubernetes cluster to Tanzu Mission Control, you need to authenticate to TMC, download and apply the agent configuration YAML to the cluster, and assign the cluster to a group for organization purposes. The cluster does not need to be a TKG cluster, as TMC supports non-TKG clusters. Additionally, generating the kubeconfig file using the Tanzu CLI is not required.
- A. Correct.
Correct. Downloading and applying the Tanzu Mission Control agent configuration YAML is a required step to attach a cluster. This allows TMC to establish communication with the cluster.
- B. Incorrect.
Incorrect. The Kubernetes cluster does not need to be a Tanzu Kubernetes Grid (TKG) cluster; Tanzu Mission Control supports managing non-TKG clusters as well.
- C. Correct.
Correct. Authentication to Tanzu Mission Control using an API token is necessary to perform actions such as attaching a cluster.
- D. Correct.
Correct. While not mandatory for all scenarios, creating or selecting a cluster group is part of the process to group and organize clusters in Tanzu Mission Control.
- E. Incorrect.
Incorrect. The Tanzu CLI is not required to generate the kubeconfig file for the attachment process in this scenario. You can access the kubeconfig file using other means, such as the cloud provider or cluster management tool.
