CRI-O

Use this skill to configure and debug CRI-O as a Kubernetes container runtime using crictl and crio.conf.

Quick Start

1. Set CONTAINER_RUNTIME_ENDPOINT=unix:///var/run/crio/crio.sock before using crictl.
2. Run crictl info to verify CRI-O is running and reachable.
3. Use crictl pods and crictl ps to inspect pods and containers.
4. Back up /etc/crio/crio.conf before making any configuration changes.
