block
Package block provides block device and volume configuration documents.
Talos Linux machine is fully configured via a single YAML file called machine configuration.
The file might contain one or more configuration documents separated by ---
(three dashes) lines.
At the moment, majority of the configuration options are within the v1alpha1 document, so
this is the only mandatory document in the configuration file.
Configuration documents might be named (contain a name:
field) or unnamed.
Unnamed documents can be supplied to the machine configuration file only once, while named documents can be supplied multiple times with unique names.
The v1alpha1
document has its own (legacy) structure, while every other document has the following set of fields:
apiVersion: v1alpha1 # version of the document
kind: NetworkRuleConfig # type of document
name: rule1 # only for named documents
This section contains the configuration reference, to learn more about Talos Linux machine configuration management, please see:
Package block provides block device and volume configuration documents.
Package extensions provides extensions config documents.
Package hardware provides hardware related config documents.
Package network provides network machine configuration documents.
Package runtime provides runtime machine configuration documents.
Package security provides security-related machine configuration documents.
Package siderolink provides SideroLink machine configuration documents.
Package v1alpha1 contains definition of the v1alpha1
configuration document.
Even though the machine configuration in Talos Linux is multi-document, at the moment this configuration document contains most of the configuration options.
It is expected that new configuration options will be added as new documents, and existing ones migrated to their own documents.
