tanzu management-cluster get
It's kind of a wrapper around clusterctl
tanzu management-cluster kubeconfig get --admin
kubectl config use-context tce-aws-demo-admin@tce-azure-demo
kubectl version
kubectl get nodes
kubectl get pods -A
tanzu cluster create tce-aws-demo-wkld -f <cluster-config-yaml-file>
An example cluster config yaml based on the above installation. We are using config similar to config used for management cluster with just the name changed
