Need etcdctl CLI tool to work with Kubernetes etcd

[eliassal]

HI, I have kubernetes cluster up and running and understood that to work with etcd I need etcdctl CLI lets say for backup purposes. I am not able to see where I can download this cli tool.
Thanks for your help

Hey @eliassal - The etcdctl cli is bundled with the etcd release on github, you can download the latest release, for example 3.5.7 here: https://github.com/etcd-io/etcd/releases/tag/v3.5.7.

Once you follow the instructions in the release page to download and extract this you will have an etcdctl cli binary available to use.

Refer to docs here which cover this also: https://etcd.io/docs/v3.5/install/#install-pre-built-binaries
