Kubernetes namespaces help different projects, teams, or customers to share a Kubernetes cluster. It does this by providing the following: A scope for Names. A mechanism to attach authorization and policy to a subsection of the cluster. Use of multiple namespaces is optional. This example demonstrates how to use Kubernetes namespaces to subdivide your cluster. Before you begin You need to have a Kubernetes cluster, and the kubectl command-line tool must be configured to communicate with your cluster.

User impersonation is a method of allowing authenticated users to act as another user, group, or service account through HTTP headers. A user can act as another user through impersonation headers. These let requests manually override the user info a request authenticates as. For example, an admin could use this feature to debug an authorization policy by temporarily impersonating another user and seeing if a request was denied. Impersonation requests first authenticate as the requesting user, then switch to the impersonated user info.

Synopsis Set the latest last-applied-configuration annotations by setting it to match the contents of a file. This results in the last-applied-configuration being updated as though 'kubectl apply -f<file> ' was run, without updating any other parts of the object. kubectl apply set-last-applied -f FILENAME Examples # Set the last-applied-configuration of a resource to match the contents of a file kubectl apply set-last-applied -f deploy.yaml # Execute set-last-applied against each configuration file in a directory kubectl apply set-last-applied -f path/ # Set the last-applied-configuration of a resource to match the contents of a file; will create the annotation if it does not already exist kubectl apply set-last-applied -f deploy.

Kubernetes nodes come pre-populated with a standard set of labels. You can also set your own labels on nodes, either through the kubelet configuration or using the Kubernetes API. Preset labels The preset labels that Kubernetes sets on nodes are: kubernetes.io/arch kubernetes.io/hostname kubernetes.io/os node.kubernetes.io/instance-type (if known to the kubelet – Kubernetes may not have this information to set the label) topology.kubernetes.io/region (if known to the kubelet – Kubernetes may not have this information to set the label) topology.

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.
