• If you wish the change the count of slave nodes, change to whatever count you want in following statement in Vagrantfile

  (1..2).each do |i|

• kubemaster.sh and kubenode.sh are the bash scripts that will configure the master and slave nodes respectively.

• After successfull setup of kubernetes, you will have Kubeconfig file in the current directory with name vagrantKubeConfig using which you can fire kubectl from your local machine.

• Use following command to set conext of kubectl to newly created kubernetes cluster

  export KUBECONFIG= <Path to vagrantKubeConfig file>
  

• Finally check if you are connected to the cluster using command

  kubectl get nodes
  

  You should get 3 nodes in ready state if you haven't change the count of slave nodes.
