  Veeam Kasten (Kasten K10) ships several first-party command-line tools rather
  than a single monolithic CLI. Since K10 is deployed in-cluster, most operations
  are driven through kubectl against K10's Kubernetes CRDs; the dedicated binaries
  below cover storage validation, install diagnostics, and multi-cluster setup.
