This document describes the two versions of configuration files use in
Google Distributed Cloud.
In Google Distributed Cloud version 1.4, the configuration files changed
substantially. The new files are called v1 configuration files.
The configuration files that were used in Google Distributed Cloud versions
earlier than 1.4 are called v0 configuration files.
As of version 1.7 of Google Distributed Cloud, the v0 configuration files
are no longer supported.
Converting configuration files
To convert a v0 configuration file to a v1 admin cluster configuration file:
[OLD_CONFIG_PATH] is the path of your v0 configuration file.
[OUTPUT_PATH] is a path of your choice for the generated
v1 admin cluster configuration file. If you omit this flag, gkectl names the
file admin-cluster.yaml and puts it in the current directory.
To convert a v0 configuration file to a v1 user cluster configuration file:
[OLD_CONFIG_PATH] is the path of your v0 configuration file.
[OUTPUT_PATH] is a path of your choice for the generated
v1 user cluster configuration file. If you omit this flag, gkectl names the
file user-cluster.yaml and puts it in the current directory.
