kops create cluster <clustername> creates a cloud specification in the registry. It will not create the cloud resources unless
you specify --yes, so that you have the chance to kops edit them. (You will likely kops update cluster after
creating it).
kops update cluster <clustername> creates or updates the cloud resources to match the cluster spec.
It is recommended that you run it first in 'preview' mode with kops update cluster --name <name>, and then
when you are happy that it is making the right changes you runkops update cluster --name <name> --yes.
kops get clusters lists all clusters in the registry.
kops delete cluster deletes the cloud resources (instances, DNS entries, volumes, ELBs, VPCs etc) for a particular
cluster. It also removes the cluster from the registry.
It is recommended that you run it first in 'preview' mode with kops delete cluster --name <name>, and then
when you are happy that it is deleting the right things you run kops delete cluster --name <name> --yes.
kops version will print the version of the code you are running.
