Pools
kubectl mayastor get pools

kubectl mayastor get nodes

mayastor-1 10.1.0.6:10124 Online
mayastor-3 10.1.0.8:10124 Online
All the above resource information can be retrieved for a particular resource using its ID. The command to do so is as follows: kubectl mayastor get <resource_name> <resource_id>
The Mayastor kubectl plugin can also be used for performing the following operations:
kubectl mayastor get volume-replica-topology <volume_id>
ID NODE POOL STATUS
93b1e1e9-ffcd-4c56-971e-294a530ea5cd ksnode-2 pool-on-ksnode-2 Online
88d89a92-40cf-4147-97d4-09e64979f548 ksnode-3 pool-on-ksnode-3 Online
The plugin requires access to the Mayastor REST server for execution. It gets the master node IP from the kube-config file. In case of any failure, the REST endpoint can be specified using the ‘–rest’ flag.
Limitations:
The plugin currently does not have authentication support.
