--- title: "config" description: > Modify persistent configuration values --- ## minikube config Modify persistent configuration values ### Synopsis config modifies minikube config files using subcommands like "minikube config set driver kvm2" Configurable fields: * driver * vm-driver * container-runtime * feature-gates * v * cpus * disk-size * host-only-cidr * memory * log_dir * kubernetes-version * iso-url * WantUpdateNotification * WantBetaUpdateNotification * ReminderWaitPeriodInHours * WantNoneDriverWarning * WantVirtualBoxDriverWarning * profile * bootstrapper * insecure-registry * hyperv-virtual-switch * disable-driver-mounts * cache * EmbedCerts * native-ssh * rootless * MaxAuditEntries ```shell minikube config SUBCOMMAND [flags] ``` ### Options inherited from parent commands ``` --add_dir_header If true, adds the file directory to the header of the log messages --alsologtostderr log to standard error as well as files (no effect when -logtostderr=true) -b, --bootstrapper string The name of the cluster bootstrapper that will set up the Kubernetes cluster. (default "kubeadm") -h, --help --log_backtrace_at traceLocation when logging hits line file:N, emit a stack trace (default :0) --log_dir string If non-empty, write log files in this directory (no effect when -logtostderr=true) --log_file string If non-empty, use this log file (no effect when -logtostderr=true) --log_file_max_size uint Defines the maximum size a log file can grow to (no effect when -logtostderr=true). Unit is megabytes. If the value is 0, the maximum file size is unlimited.
