azure-cli | mkdir: cannot create directory | Permission denied

I am trying to setup hyperledger fabric on Azure Kubernetes Service. For that I am following this article. I need to create directory like mkdir /usr/local/hyperledger as per the instruction in the article. But I am getting the following error.

mkdir: cannot create directory ‘/usr/local/hyperledger’: Permission denied

Help me to fix this issue.

It's likely that you are running the command as a non-root user. To gain root permissions for a single command, invoke the command with sudo, e.g. sudo mkdir /usr/local/hyperledger. I don't think this is the solution to your problem though.

You shouldn't need to run these steps manually if your target environment is AKS. You should be preparing a docker image to run in your cluster, rather than using shell commands to modify a VM/container.

The author of the article has provided a Dockerfile which you can use to build a docker image, or you can retrieve the pre-built image from Docker Hub: tsmatz/hyperledger-dev.
