This page serves as a reference for the audit annotations of the kubernetes.io namespace. These annotations apply to Event object from API group audit.k8s.io. Note:The following annotations are not used within the Kubernetes API. When you enable auditing in your cluster, audit event data is written using Event from API group audit.k8s.io. The annotations apply to audit events. Audit events are different from objects in the Event API (API group events.

This document describes the concept of a StorageClass in Kubernetes. Familiarity with volumes and persistent volumes is suggested. A StorageClass provides a way for administrators to describe the classes of storage they offer. Different classes might map to quality-of-service levels, or to backup policies, or to arbitrary policies determined by the cluster administrators. Kubernetes itself is unopinionated about what classes represent. The Kubernetes concept of a storage class is similar to “profiles” in some other storage system designs.

With autoscaling, you can automatically update your workloads in one way or another. This allows your cluster to react to changes in resource demand more elastically and efficiently.

Legacy API for managing workloads that can scale horizontally. Superseded by the Deployment and ReplicaSet APIs.

In Kubernetes, a VolumeSnapshot represents a snapshot of a volume on a storage system. This document assumes that you are already familiar with Kubernetes persistent volumes. Introduction Similar to how API resources PersistentVolume and PersistentVolumeClaim are used to provision volumes for users and administrators, VolumeSnapshotContent and VolumeSnapshot API resources are provided to create volume snapshots for users and administrators. A VolumeSnapshotContent is a snapshot taken from a volume in the cluster that has been provisioned by an administrator.

FEATURE STATE: Kubernetes v1.14 [stable] Pods can have priority. Priority indicates the importance of a Pod relative to other Pods. If a Pod cannot be scheduled, the scheduler tries to preempt (evict) lower priority Pods to make scheduling of the pending Pod possible. Warning:In a cluster where not all users are trusted, a malicious user could create Pods at the highest possible priorities, causing other Pods to be evicted/not get scheduled.

Before you begin You must use a kubectl version that is within one minor version difference of your cluster. For example, a v1.30 client can communicate with v1.29, v1.30, and v1.31 control planes. Using the latest compatible version of kubectl helps avoid unforeseen issues. Install kubectl on macOS The following methods exist for installing kubectl on macOS: Install kubectl on macOS Install kubectl binary with curl on macOS Install with Homebrew on macOS Install with Macports on macOS Verify kubectl configuration Optional kubectl configurations and plugins Enable shell autocompletion Install kubectl convert plugin Install kubectl binary with curl on macOS Download the latest release:
