bmctl is the command-line tool for Google Distributed Cloud that simplifies cluster creation and management. For more information about what you can do with bmctl, see bmctl tool.

From your Linux admin workstation, use the following commands to download bmctl and make it executable:

gcloud storage cp gs://anthos-baremetal-release/bmctl/VERSION/linux-amd64/bmctl .
chmod +x ./bmctl

Replace VERSION with the version of Google Distributed Cloud you want to install or upgrade your clusters to. The latest available patch version is 1.10.8.

Verify `bmctl` using `openssl`

Verify the bmctl binary against the public key using openssl, where VERSION is the file's version:

gcloud storage cp gs://anthos-baremetal-release/bmctl/VERSION/linux-amd64/bmctl.1.sig .
openssl dgst -verify - -signature ./bmctl.1.sig ./bmctl <<'EOF'
