The appliance VM hosts a management Kubernetes cluster. The kubeconfig is a low-privilege Kubernetes configuration file that is used to maintain the appliance VM. By default, it's generated in the current CLI directory when the `deploy` command completes. The kubeconfig should be saved in a secure location on the management machine, because it's required for maintaining the appliance VM. If the kubeconfig is lost, it can be retrieved by running the `az arcappliance get-credentials` command.

### HCI login configuration file (Azure Stack HCI only)

Arc resource bridge uses a MOC login credential called KVA token (`kvatoken.tok`) to interact with Azure Stack HCI. The KVA token is generated with the appliance configuration files when deploying Arc resource bridge. This token is also used when collecting logs for Arc resource bridge, so it should be saved in a secure location with the rest of the appliance configuration files. This file is saved in the directory provided during configuration file creation or the default CLI directory.

> Once the Arc resource bridge VM is created, the configuration settings can't be modified or updated. Also, the appliance VM must stay in the location where it was initially deployed. Capabilities to allow appliance VM configuration and location changes post-deployment will be available in a future release. However, the Arc resource bridge VM name is a unique GUID that can't be renamed as it's an identifier used for cloud-managed upgrade.
