kube-state-metrics, an add-on agent to generate and expose cluster-level metrics.

This page explains how to add Linux worker nodes to a kubeadm cluster. Before you begin Each joining worker node has installed the required components from Installing kubeadm, such as, kubeadm, the kubelet and a container runtime. A running kubeadm cluster created by kubeadm init and following the steps in the document Creating a cluster with kubeadm. You need superuser access to the node. Adding Linux worker nodes To add new Linux worker nodes to your cluster do the following for each machine:

This page explains how to enable a package repository for the desired Kubernetes minor release upon upgrading a cluster. This is only needed for users of the community-owned package repositories hosted at pkgs.k8s.io. Unlike the legacy package repositories, the community-owned package repositories are structured in a way that there's a dedicated package repository for each Kubernetes minor version. Note:This guide only covers a part of the Kubernetes upgrade process. Please see the upgrade guide for more information about upgrading Kubernetes clusters.

In Kubernetes, scheduling refers to making sure that Pods are matched to Nodes so that Kubelet can run them. Scheduling overview A scheduler watches for newly created Pods that have no Node assigned. For every Pod that the scheduler discovers, the scheduler becomes responsible for finding the best Node for that Pod to run on. The scheduler reaches this placement decision taking into account the scheduling principles described below.

This page outlines steps to find out what container runtime the nodes in your cluster use. Depending on the way you run your cluster, the container runtime for the nodes may have been pre-configured or you need to configure it. If you're using a managed Kubernetes service, there might be vendor-specific ways to check what container runtime is configured for the nodes. The method described on this page should work whenever the execution of kubectl is allowed.

This page shows how to run a replicated stateful application using a StatefulSet. This application is a replicated MySQL database. The example topology has a single primary server and multiple replicas, using asynchronous row-based replication. Note:This is not a production configuration. MySQL settings remain on insecure defaults to keep the focus on general patterns for running stateful applications in Kubernetes. Before you begin You need to have a Kubernetes cluster, and the kubectl command-line tool must be configured to communicate with your cluster.

Kubernetes objects can be created, updated, and deleted by using the kubectl command-line tool along with an object configuration file written in YAML or JSON. This document explains how to define and manage objects using configuration files. Before you begin Install kubectl. You need to have a Kubernetes cluster, and the kubectl command-line tool must be configured to communicate with your cluster. It is recommended to run this tutorial on a cluster with at least two nodes that are not acting as control plane hosts.

This page explains how to add versioning information to CustomResourceDefinitions, to indicate the stability level of your CustomResourceDefinitions or advance your API to a new version with conversion between API representations. It also describes how to upgrade an object from one version to another. Before you begin You need to have a Kubernetes cluster, and the kubectl command-line tool must be configured to communicate with your cluster. It is recommended to run this tutorial on a cluster with at least two nodes that are not acting as control plane hosts.

This document shares how to validate IPv4/IPv6 dual-stack enabled Kubernetes clusters. Before you begin Provider support for dual-stack networking (Cloud provider or otherwise must be able to provide Kubernetes nodes with routable IPv4/IPv6 network interfaces) A network plugin that supports dual-stack networking. Dual-stack enabled cluster Your Kubernetes server must be at or later than version v1.23. To check the version, enter kubectl version. Note:While you can validate with an earlier version, the feature is only GA and officially supported since v1.
