Installing with kata-manager

Introduction

kata-manager automates the Kata Containers installation procedure documented for these Linux distributions.

Note

:

  • kata-manager requires curl and sudo installed on your system.

  • Full installation mode is only available for Docker container manager. For other setups, you can still use kata-manager to install Kata package, and then setup your container manager manually.

  • You can run kata-manager in dry run mode by passing the -n flag. Dry run mode allows you to review the commands that kata-manager would run, without doing any change to your system.

Full Installation

This command does the following:

  1. Installs Kata Containers packages
  2. Installs Docker
  3. Configure Docker to use the Kata OCI runtime by default
$ bash -c "$(curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/kata-containers/tests/master/cmd/kata-manager/kata-manager.sh) install-docker-system"

Install the Kata packages only

Use the following command to only install Kata Containers packages.

$ bash -c "$(curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/kata-containers/tests/master/cmd/kata-manager/kata-manager.sh) install-packages"
