unauthorised for getting kubectl api-versions

Question

I am trying to install ICP version 3 where the setup is automated via ansible to setup a kubernetes cluster. However the setup keeps failing with :

 kubectl api-versions
error: Couldn't get available api versions from server: Unauthorized

Any pointers how can this be debugged?

which user/servcie account are you using to access the API server? it needs to have permissions — Ijaz Ahmad, Oct 26 '18 at 08:34
How to know which user has access ? /root/.kube/config had user admin. How do I use that user? I tried `su - admin` but its not a unix user. — codec, Oct 26 '18 at 14:17
kubernetes does not use unix users , you need to copy the admin kubeconfig into your /root/.kube/config and make sure it is correct — Ijaz Ahmad, Oct 26 '18 at 14:45

Unauthorized usually means you haven’t logged into the cluster with cloudctl or using the ‘Configure Client’ option in the UI to set the kubectl context
