Azure Kubernetes Service (AKS)

Consider Azure MCP instead

Most users should start with the Azure MCP integration, which provides broad access to all Azure APIs including AKS. This standalone toolset is only needed if you require specific AKS CLI commands that aren't available through the MCP server.

By enabling this toolset, HolmesGPT will be able to interact with Azure Kubernetes Service clusters, providing Azure-specific troubleshooting capabilities and cluster management.

Prerequisites

1. Azure CLI installed and configured
2. Appropriate Azure RBAC permissions for AKS clusters
3. Access to the target AKS cluster

Configuration

Holmes CLIRobusta Helm Chart

First, ensure you're authenticated with Azure:

az login
az account set --subscription "<your subscription id>"

Then add the following to ~/.holmes/config.yaml. Create the file if it doesn't exist:

toolsets:
  aks/core:
    enabled: true
    config:
      subscription_id: "<your Azure subscription ID>" # Optional
      resource_group: "<your AKS resource group>" # Optional
      cluster_name: "<your AKS cluster name>" # Optional

After making changes to your configuration, run:

holmes toolset refresh

holmes:
  toolsets:
    aks/core:
      enabled: true
      config:
        subscription_id: "<your Azure subscription ID>"
        resource_group: "<your AKS resource group>"
        cluster_name: "<your AKS cluster name>"

Update your Helm values and run a Helm upgrade:

helm upgrade robusta robusta/robusta --values=generated_values.yaml --set clusterName=<YOUR_CLUSTER_NAME>

Advanced Configuration

You can configure additional Azure settings:

toolsets:
  aks/core:
    enabled: true
    config:
      subscription_id: "<your Azure subscription ID>"
      resource_group: "<your AKS resource group>"
      cluster_name: "<your AKS cluster name>"
      location: "eastus"  # Azure region
      timeout: 60  # Request timeout in seconds
