This command initializes a Kubernetes control plane node. Run this command in order to set up the Kubernetes control plane Synopsis Run this command in order to set up the Kubernetes control plane The "init" command executes the following phases: preflight Run pre-flight checks certs Certificate generation /ca Generate the self-signed Kubernetes CA to provision identities for other Kubernetes components /apiserver Generate the certificate for serving the Kubernetes API /apiserver-kubelet-client Generate the certificate for the API server to connect to kubelet /front-proxy-ca Generate the self-signed CA to provision identities for front proxy /front-proxy-client Generate the certificate for the front proxy client /etcd-ca Generate the self-signed CA to provision identities for etcd /etcd-server Generate the certificate for serving etcd /etcd-peer Generate the certificate for etcd nodes to communicate with each other /etcd-healthcheck-client Generate the certificate for liveness probes to healthcheck etcd /apiserver-etcd-client Generate the certificate the apiserver uses to access etcd /sa Generate a private key for signing service account tokens along with its public key kubeconfig Generate all kubeconfig files necessary to establish the control plane and the admin kubeconfig file /admin Generate a kubeconfig file for the admin to use and for kubeadm itself /super-admin Generate a kubeconfig file for the super-admin /kubelet Generate a kubeconfig file for the kubelet to use *only* for cluster bootstrapping purposes /controller-manager Generate a kubeconfig file for the controller manager to use /scheduler Generate a kubeconfig file for the scheduler to use etcd Generate static Pod manifest file for local etcd /local Generate the static Pod manifest file for a local, single-node local etcd instance control-plane Generate all static Pod manifest files necessary to establish the control plane /apiserver Generates the kube-apiserver static Pod manifest /controller-manager Generates the kube-controller-manager static Pod manifest /scheduler Generates the kube-scheduler static Pod manifest kubelet-start Write kubelet settings and (re)start the kubelet upload-config Upload the kubeadm and kubelet configuration to a ConfigMap /kubeadm Upload the kubeadm ClusterConfiguration to a ConfigMap /kubelet Upload the kubelet component config to a ConfigMap upload-certs Upload certificates to kubeadm-certs mark-control-plane Mark a node as a control-plane bootstrap-token Generates bootstrap tokens used to join a node to a cluster kubelet-finalize Updates settings relevant to the kubelet after TLS bootstrap /enable-client-cert-rotation Enable kubelet client certificate rotation addon Install required addons for passing conformance tests /coredns Install the CoreDNS addon to a Kubernetes cluster /kube-proxy Install the kube-proxy addon to a Kubernetes cluster show-join-command Show the join command for control-plane and worker node kubeadm init [flags] Options --apiserver-advertise-address string The IP address the API Server will advertise it's listening on.

Recommendations for designing and deploying admission webhooks in Kubernetes.

This page describes the CoreDNS upgrade process and how to install CoreDNS instead of kube-dns. 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. If you do not already have a cluster, you can create one by using minikube or you can use one of these Kubernetes playgrounds:

FEATURE STATE: Kubernetes v1.34 [stable] (enabled by default: true) This page shows you how to allocate devices to your Pods by using dynamic resource allocation (DRA). These instructions are for workload operators. Before reading this page, familiarize yourself with how DRA works and with DRA terminology like ResourceClaims and ResourceClaimTemplates. For more information, see Dynamic Resource Allocation (DRA). About device allocation with DRA As a workload operator, you can claim devices for your workloads by creating ResourceClaims or ResourceClaimTemplates.

Kubernetes offers two distinct ways for clients that run within your cluster, or that otherwise have a relationship to your cluster's control plane to authenticate to the API server. A service account provides an identity for processes that run in a Pod, and maps to a ServiceAccount object. When you authenticate to the API server, you identify yourself as a particular user. Kubernetes recognises the concept of a user, however, Kubernetes itself does not have a User API.

Production-Grade Container Orchestration

In the scheduling-plugin NodeResourcesFit of kube-scheduler, there are two scoring strategies that support the bin packing of resources: MostAllocated and RequestedToCapacityRatio. Enabling bin packing using MostAllocated strategy The MostAllocated strategy scores the nodes based on the utilization of resources, favoring the ones with higher allocation. For each resource type, you can set a weight to modify its influence in the node score. To set the MostAllocated strategy for the NodeResourcesFit plugin, use a scheduler configuration similar to the following:

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:
