cri-o Usage Transfer
This document outlines useful information for ops and dev transfer as it relates to infrastructure that utilizes cri-o.
Operational Transfer
Abstract
The crio daemon is intended to provide the CRI socket needed for Kubernetes to use for automating deployment, scaling, and management of containerized applications (See the document for configuring kubernetes to use cri-o for more information on that).
Therefore the crioctl command line is a client that interfaces to the same grpc socket as the kubernetes daemon would, for talking to the crio daemon.
In many ways crioctl is only as feature rich as the Kubernetes CRI requires.
There are additional tools e.g. kpod and buildah that provide a feature rich set of commands for all operational needs in a Kubernetes environment.
System Tools
Many traditional tools will still be useful, such as pstree, nsenter and lsns.
As well as some systemd helpers like systemd-cgls and systemd-cgtop are still just as applicable.
Equivalents
For many troubleshooting and information collection steps, there may be an existing pattern. Following provides equivalent with cri-o tools for gathering information or jumping into containers, for operational use.
| Existing Step | CRI-O (and friends) |
|---|---|
docker exec |
crioctl ctr exec |
docker info |
kpod info |
docker inspect |
kpod inspect |
docker logs |
kpod logs |
docker ps |
crioctl ctr list or runc list |
docker stats |
kpod stats or crioctl ctr status |
If you were already using steps like kubectl exec (or oc exec on OpenShift), they will continue to function the same way.
Development Transfer
There are other equivalents for these tools

*** Use mount to take advantage of the entire linux tool chain rather then just cp. Read here for more information.
