<#CHMV3P9NV|certified-kub-admin> In the exam for CKA, creating alias are recommended? I just hate typing the whole command over and over, if it’s possible.
Sathish Puranika K:
Yes creating alias are very much recommended. It is very useful and save lot of time. Keep seperate aliases for repeating commands like dry-run, get pods, get all, describe, and specify the name space as well.
Ravi Shanker:
Yes you can create if you remember all aliases you want to put. Opening of notes is not allowed. killer.sh recommends creating aliases but it’s a personal choice.
Gurudutt Dongre:
I recently gave the exam and all that I had was
alias k=kubectl
export dry= ‘–dry-run=client -o yaml’
and then the autocomplete setup which was available in kubernetes documentation. I found this to be sufficient.
Aditya Pratap Bhuyan:
