Download bmctl

bmctl is the command-line tool for Anthos clusters on bare metal 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:

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

Replace VERSION with the version of Anthos clusters on bare metal you want to install or upgrade your clusters to. The latest available patch version is 1.11.8.

Verify bmctl using openssl

gsutil cp gs://anthos-baremetal-release/bmctl/VERSION/linux-amd64/bmctl.1.sig .
openssl dgst -verify - -signature ./bmctl.1.sig ./bmctl <<'EOF'
-----BEGIN PUBLIC KEY-----
