# 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](https://github.com/kubernetes/community/blob/master/contributors/devel/container-runtime-interface.md) 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](./kubernetes.md) 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`](https://github.com/projectatomic/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`](./docs/crio.8.md) |
| `docker info` | [`kpod info`](./docs/kpod-info.1.md) |
| `docker inspect` | [`kpod inspect`](./docs/kpod-inspect.1.md) |
| `docker logs` | [`kpod logs`](./docs/kpod-logs.1.md) |
| `docker ps` | [`crioctl ctr list`](./docs/crio.8.md) or [`runc list`](https://github.com/opencontainers/runc/blob/master/man/runc-list.8.md) |
| `docker stats` | [`kpod stats`](./docs/kpod-stats.1.md) 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
