1 - Client Authentication (v1beta1)

Resource Types

ExecCredential

ExecCredential is used by exec-based plugins to communicate credentials to HTTP transports.

FieldDescription
apiVersion
string
client.authentication.k8s.io/v1beta1
kind
string
ExecCredential
spec [Required]
ExecCredentialSpec
Spec holds information passed to the plugin by the transport.
status
ExecCredentialStatus
Status is filled in by the plugin and holds the credentials that the transport should use to contact the API.

Cluster

Appears in:

Cluster contains information to allow an exec plugin to communicate with the kubernetes cluster being authenticated to.

To ensure that this struct contains everything someone would need to communicate with a kubernetes cluster (just like they would via a kubeconfig), the fields should shadow "k8s.io/client-go/tools/clientcmd/api/v1".Cluster, with the exception of CertificateAuthority, since CA data will always be passed to the plugin as bytes.

FieldDescription
server [Required]
string
Server is the address of the kubernetes cluster (https://hostname:port).
tls-server-name
string
TLSServerName is passed to the server for SNI and is used in the client to check server certificates against. If ServerName is empty, the hostname used to contact the server is used.
insecure-skip-tls-verify
bool
InsecureSkipTLSVerify skips the validity check for the server's certificate. This will make your HTTPS connections insecure.
certificate-authority-data
[]byte
CAData contains PEM-encoded certificate authority certificates. If empty, system roots should be used.
proxy-url
string
ProxyURL is the URL to the proxy to be used for all requests to this cluster.
config
k8s.io/apimachinery/pkg/runtime.RawExtension
Config holds additional config data that is specific to the exec plugin with regards to the cluster being authenticated to.

This data is sourced from the clientcmd Cluster object's extensions[client.authentication.k8s.io/exec] field:

clusters:

  • name: my-cluster cluster: ... extensions:
    • name: client.authentication.k8s.io/exec # reserved extension name for per cluster exec config extension: audience: 06e3fbd18de8 # arbitrary config

In some environments, the user config may be exactly the same across many clusters (i.e. call this exec plugin) minus some details that are specific to each cluster such as the audience. This field allows the per cluster config to be directly specified with the cluster info. Using this field to store secret data is not recommended as one of the prime benefits of exec plugins is that no secrets need to be stored directly in the kubeconfig.

ExecCredentialSpec

Appears in:

ExecCredentialSpec holds request and runtime specific information provided by the transport.

FieldDescription

ExpirationTimestamp indicates a time when the provided credentials expire.
token [Required]
string
Token is a bearer token used by the client for request authentication.

Two modes of proxy are available in Windows platform: 'userspace'(older, stable) and 'kernelspace' (newer, faster).

In Linux platform, if proxy mode is blank, use the best-available proxy (currently iptables, but may change in the future). If the iptables proxy is selected, regardless of how, but the system's kernel or iptables versions are insufficient, this always falls back to the userspace proxy. IPVS mode will be enabled when proxy mode is set to 'ipvs', and the fall back path is firstly iptables and then userspace.

8 - kubeadm Configuration (v1beta2)

Package v1beta2 defines the v1beta2 version of the kubeadm configuration file format. This version improves on the v1beta1 format by fixing some minor issues and adding a few new fields.

A list of changes since v1beta1:

  • `certificateKey" field is added to InitConfiguration and JoinConfiguration.
  • "ignorePreflightErrors" field is added to the NodeRegistrationOptions.
  • The JSON "omitempty" tag is used in a more places where appropriate.
  • The JSON "omitempty" tag of the "taints" field (inside NodeRegistrationOptions) is removed. See the Kubernetes 1.15 changelog for further details.

Migration from old kubeadm config versions

Please convert your v1beta1 configuration files to v1beta2 using the "kubeadm config migrate" command of kubeadm v1.15.x (conversion from older releases of kubeadm config files requires older release of kubeadm as well e.g.

  • kubeadm v1.11 should be used to migrate v1alpha1 to v1alpha2; kubeadm v1.12 should be used to translate v1alpha2 to v1alpha3;
  • kubeadm v1.13 or v1.14 should be used to translate v1alpha3 to v1beta1)

Nevertheless, kubeadm v1.15.x will support reading from v1beta1 version of the kubeadm config file format.

Basics

The preferred way to configure kubeadm is to pass an YAML configuration file with the --config option. Some of the configuration options defined in the kubeadm config file are also available as command line flags, but only the most common/simple use case are supported with this approach.

A kubeadm config file could contain multiple configuration types separated using three dashes (“---”).

kubeadm supports the following configuration types:

apiVersion: kubeadm.k8s.io/v1beta2
kind: InitConfiguration

apiVersion: kubeadm.k8s.io/v1beta2
kind: ClusterConfiguration

apiVersion: kubelet.config.k8s.io/v1beta1
kind: KubeletConfiguration

apiVersion: kubeproxy.config.k8s.io/v1alpha1
kind: KubeProxyConfiguration

apiVersion: kubeadm.k8s.io/v1beta2
kind: JoinConfiguration

To print the defaults for "init" and "join" actions use the following commands:

kubeadm config print init-defaults
kubeadm config print join-defaults

The list of configuration types that must be included in a configuration file depends by the action you are performing (init or join) and by the configuration options you are going to use (defaults or advanced customization).

If some configuration types are not provided, or provided only partially, kubeadm will use default values; defaults provided by kubeadm includes also enforcing consistency of values across components when required (e.g. cluster-cidr flag on controller manager and clusterCIDR on kube-proxy).

Users are always allowed to override default values, with the only exception of a small subset of setting with relevance for security (e.g. enforce authorization-mode Node and RBAC on api server)

If the user provides a configuration types that is not expected for the action you are performing, kubeadm will ignore those types and print a warning.

Kubeadm init configuration types

When executing kubeadm init with the --config option, the following configuration types could be used: InitConfiguration, ClusterConfiguration, KubeProxyConfiguration, KubeletConfiguration, but only one between InitConfiguration and ClusterConfiguration is mandatory.

apiVersion: kubeadm.k8s.io/v1beta2
kind: InitConfiguration
bootstrapTokens:
    ...
nodeRegistration:
    ...

The InitConfiguration type should be used to configure runtime settings, that in case of kubeadm init are the configuration of the bootstrap token and all the setting which are specific to the node where kubeadm is executed, including:

  • NodeRegistration, that holds fields that relate to registering the new node to the cluster; use it to customize the node name, the CRI socket to use or any other settings that should apply to this node only (e.g. the node ip).

  • LocalAPIEndpoint, that represents the endpoint of the instance of the API server to be deployed on this node; use it e.g. to customize the API server advertise address.

    apiVersion: kubeadm.k8s.io/v1beta2
    kind: ClusterConfiguration
    networking:
        ...
    etcd:
        ...
    apiServer:
      extraArgs:
        ...
      extraVolumes:
        ...
    

The ClusterConfiguration type should be used to configure cluster-wide settings, including settings for:

  • Networking, that holds configuration for the networking topology of the cluster; use it e.g. to customize pod subnet or services subnet.

  • Etcd configurations; use it e.g. to customize the local etcd or to configure the API server for using an external etcd cluster.

  • kube-apiserver, kube-scheduler, kube-controller-manager configurations; use it to customize control-plane components by adding customized setting or overriding kubeadm default settings.

    apiVersion: kubeproxy.config.k8s.io/v1alpha1
    kind: KubeProxyConfiguration
       ...
    

The KubeProxyConfiguration type should be used to change the configuration passed to kube-proxy instances deployed in the cluster. If this object is not provided or provided only partially, kubeadm applies defaults.

See https://kubernetes.io/docs/reference/command-line-tools-reference/kube-proxy/ or https://godoc.org/k8s.io/kube-proxy/config/v1alpha1#KubeProxyConfiguration for kube proxy official documentation.

apiVersion: kubelet.config.k8s.io/v1beta1
kind: KubeletConfiguration
...

The KubeletConfiguration type should be used to change the configurations that will be passed to all kubelet instances deployed in the cluster. If this object is not provided or provided only partially, kubeadm applies defaults.

See https://kubernetes.io/docs/reference/command-line-tools-reference/kubelet/ or https://godoc.org/k8s.io/kubelet/config/v1beta1#KubeletConfiguration for kubelet official documentation.

Here is a fully populated example of a single YAML file containing multiple configuration types to be used during a kubeadm init run.

Kubeadm join configuration types

When executing kubeadm join with the --config option, the JoinConfiguration type should be provided.

apiVersion: kubeadm.k8s.io/v1beta2
kind: JoinConfiguration
...

The JoinConfiguration type should be used to configure runtime settings, that in case of kubeadm join are the discovery method used for accessing the cluster info and all the setting which are specific to the node where kubeadm is executed, including:

  • NodeRegistration, that holds fields that relate to registering the new node to the cluster; use it to customize the node name, the CRI socket to use or any other settings that should apply to this node only (e.g. the node ip).

  • APIEndpoint, that represents the endpoint of the instance of the API server to be eventually deployed on this node.

string
`controlPlaneEndpoint` sets a stable IP address or DNS name for the control plane; it can be a valid IP address or a RFC-1123 DNS subdomain, both with optional TCP port. In case the ControlPlaneEndpoint is not specified, the AdvertiseAddress + BindPort are used; in case the ControlPlaneEndpoint is specified but without a TCP port, the BindPort is used. Possible usages are:
  • In a cluster with more than one control plane instances, this field should be assigned the address of the external load balancer in front of the control plane instances.
  • In environments with enforced node recycling, the ControlPlaneEndpoint could be used for assigning a stable DNS to the control plane.

`apiServer` contains extra settings for the API server.
controllerManager [Required]
ControlPlaneComponent
`controllerManager` contains extra settings for the controller manager.
scheduler [Required]

`dns` defines the options for the DNS add-on.
certificatesDir [Required]
string
`certificatesDir` specifies where to store or look for all required certificates.
imageRepository [Required]
string
`imageRepository` sets the container registry to pull images from. If empty, `k8s.gcr.io` will be used by default; in case of kubernetes version is a CI build (kubernetes version starts with `ci/` or `ci-cross/`) `gcr.io/k8s-staging-ci-images` will be used as a default for control plane components and for kube-proxy, while `k8s.gcr.io` will be used for all the other images.
useHyperKubeImage [Required]
bool
`useHyperKubeImage` controls if hyperkube should be used for Kubernetes components instead of their respective separate images DEPRECATED: As hyperkube is itself deprecated, this fields is too. It will be removed in future kubeadm config versions, kubeadm will print multiple warnings when this is set to true, and at some point it may become ignored.
featureGates [Required]
map[string]bool
Feature gates enabled by the user.
clusterName [Required]
string
The cluster name

ClusterStatus

ClusterStatus contains the cluster status. The ClusterStatus will be stored in the kubeadm-config ConfigMap in the cluster, and then updated by kubeadm when additional control plane instance joins or leaves the cluster.

FieldDescription
apiVersion
string

kind
string
ClusterStatus

`localAPIEndpoint` represents the endpoint of the API server instance that's deployed on this control plane node In HA setups, this differs from ClusterConfiguration.ControlPlaneEndpoint in the sense that ControlPlaneEndpoint is the global endpoint for the cluster, which then loadbalances the requests to each individual API server. This configuration object lets you customize what IP/DNS name and port the local API server advertises it's accessible on. By default, kubeadm tries to auto-detect the IP of the default interface and use that, but in case that process fails you may set the desired value here.

9 - kubeadm Configuration (v1beta3)

Package v1beta3 defines the v1beta3 version of the kubeadm configuration file format. This version improves on the v1beta2 format by fixing some minor issues and adding a few new fields.

A list of changes since v1beta2:

  • The deprecated ClusterConfiguration.useHyperKubeImage field has been removed. Kubeadm no longer supports the hyperkube image.
  • The ClusterConfiguration.dns.type field has been removed since CoreDNS is the only supported DNS server type by kubeadm.
  • Include "datapolicy" tags on the fields that hold secrets. This would result in the field values to be omitted when API structures are printed with klog.
  • Add InitConfiguration.skipPhases, JoinConfiguration.skipPhases to allow skipping a list of phases during kubeadm init/join command execution.
  • Add InitConfiguration.nodeRegistration.imagePullPolicy" and JoinConfiguration.nodeRegistration.imagePullPolicy` to allow specifying the images pull policy during kubeadm "init" and "join". The value must be one of "Always", "Never" or "IfNotPresent". "IfNotPresent" is the default, which has been the existing behavior prior to this addition.
  • Add InitConfiguration.patches.directory, JoinConfiguration.patches.directory to allow the user to configure a directory from which to take patches for components deployed by kubeadm.
  • Move the BootstrapToken∗ API and related utilities out of the "kubeadm" API group to a new group "bootstraptoken". The kubeadm API version v1beta3 no longer contains the BootstrapToken∗ structures.

Migration from old kubeadm config versions

  • kubeadm v1.15.x and newer can be used to migrate from the v1beta1 to v1beta2.
  • kubeadm v1.22.x no longer supports v1beta1 and older APIs, but can be used to migrate v1beta2 to v1beta3.

Basics

The preferred way to configure kubeadm is to pass an YAML configuration file with the --config option. Some of the configuration options defined in the kubeadm config file are also available as command line flags, but only the most common/simple use case are supported with this approach.

A kubeadm config file could contain multiple configuration types separated using three dashes (“---”).

kubeadm supports the following configuration types:

apiVersion: kubeadm.k8s.io/v1beta3
kind: InitConfiguration
---
apiVersion: kubeadm.k8s.io/v1beta3
kind: ClusterConfiguration
---
apiVersion: kubelet.config.k8s.io/v1beta1
kind: KubeletConfiguration
---
apiVersion: kubeproxy.config.k8s.io/v1alpha1
kind: KubeProxyConfiguration
---
apiVersion: kubeadm.k8s.io/v1beta3
kind: JoinConfiguration

To print the defaults for "init" and "join" actions use the following commands:

kubeadm config print init-defaults
kubeadm config print join-defaults

The list of configuration types that must be included in a configuration file depends by the action you are performing (init or join) and by the configuration options you are going to use (defaults or advanced customization).

If some configuration types are not provided, or provided only partially, kubeadm will use default values; defaults provided by kubeadm includes also enforcing consistency of values across components when required (e.g. cluster-cidr flag on controller manager and clusterCIDR on kube-proxy).

Users are always allowed to override default values, with the only exception of a small subset of setting with relevance for security (e.g. enforce authorization-mode Node and RBAC on api server)

If the user provides a configuration types that is not expected for the action you are performing, kubeadm will ignore those types and print a warning.

Kubeadm init configuration types

When executing kubeadm init with the --config option, the following configuration types could be used: InitConfiguration, ClusterConfiguration, KubeProxyConfiguration, KubeletConfiguration, but only one between InitConfiguration and ClusterConfiguration is mandatory.

apiVersion: kubeadm.k8s.io/v1beta3
kind: InitConfiguration
bootstrapTokens:
  ...
nodeRegistration:
  ...

The InitConfiguration type should be used to configure runtime settings, that in case of kubeadm init are the configuration of the bootstrap token and all the setting which are specific to the node where kubeadm is executed, including:

  • NodeRegistration, that holds fields that relate to registering the new node to the cluster; use it to customize the node name, the CRI socket to use or any other settings that should apply to this node only (e.g. the node ip).

  • LocalAPIEndpoint, that represents the endpoint of the instance of the API server to be deployed on this node; use it e.g. to customize the API server advertise address.

    apiVersion: kubeadm.k8s.io/v1beta3
    kind: ClusterConfiguration
    networking:
        ...
    etcd:
        ...
    apiServer:
      extraArgs:
        ...
      extraVolumes:
        ...

The ClusterConfiguration type should be used to configure cluster-wide settings, including settings for:

  • Networking, that holds configuration for the networking topology of the cluster; use it e.g. to customize pod subnet or services subnet.

  • Etcd configurations; use it e.g. to customize the local etcd or to configure the API server for using an external etcd cluster.

  • kube-apiserver, kube-scheduler, kube-controller-manager configurations; use it to customize control-plane components by adding customized setting or overriding kubeadm default settings.

    apiVersion: kubeproxy.config.k8s.io/v1alpha1
    kind: KubeProxyConfiguration

Kubeadm join configuration types

When executing kubeadm join with the --config option, the JoinConfiguration type should be provided.

apiVersion: kubeadm.k8s.io/v1beta3
kind: JoinConfiguration
...

The JoinConfiguration type should be used to configure runtime settings, that in case of kubeadm join are the discovery method used for accessing the cluster info and all the setting which are specific to the node where kubeadm is executed, including:

  • NodeRegistration, that holds fields that relate to registering the new node to the cluster; use it to customize the node name, the CRI socket to use or any other settings that should apply to this node only (e.g. the node ip).
  • APIEndpoint, that represents the endpoint of the instance of the API server to be eventually deployed on this node.

Resource Types

`networking` holds configuration for the networking topology of the cluster.
kubernetesVersion
string
`kubernetesVersion` is the target version of the control plane.
controlPlaneEndpoint
string
`controlPlaneEndpoint` sets a stable IP address or DNS name for the control plane; it can be a valid IP address or a RFC-1123 DNS subdomain, both with optional TCP port. In case the `controlPlaneEndpoint` is not specified, the `advertiseAddress` + `bindPort` are used; in case the `controlPlaneEndpoint` is specified but without a TCP port, the `bindPort` of the `localAPIEndpoint` is used. Possible usages are:
  • In a cluster with more than one control plane instances, this field should be assigned the address of the external load balancer in front of the control plane instances.
  • In environments with enforced node recycling, the ControlPlaneEndpoint could be used for assigning a stable DNS to the control plane.
apiServer

localAPIEndpoint
APIEndpoint
`localAPIEndpoint` represents the endpoint of the API server instance that's deployed on this control plane node In HA setups, this differs from ClusterConfiguration.ControlPlaneEndpoint in the sense that ControlPlaneEndpoint is the global endpoint for the cluster, which then loadbalances the requests to each individual API server. This configuration object lets you customize what IP/DNS name and port the local API server advertises it's accessible on. By default, kubeadm tries to auto-detect the IP of the default interface and use that, but in case that process fails you may set the desired value here.

Default: ""
syncFrequency
meta/v1.Duration
syncFrequency is the max period between synchronizing running containers and config. If DynamicKubeletConfig (deprecated; default off) is on, when dynamically updating this field, consider that shortening this duration may have a negative performance impact, especially as the number of Pods on the node increases. Alternatively, increasing this duration will result in longer refresh times for ConfigMaps and Secrets. Default: "1m"
fileCheckFrequency
meta/v1.Duration
fileCheckFrequency is the duration between checking config files for new data. If DynamicKubeletConfig (deprecated; default off) is on, when dynamically updating this field, consider that shortening the duration will cause the Kubelet to reload local Static Pod configurations more frequently, which may have a negative performance impact. Default: "20s"
httpCheckFrequency
meta/v1.Duration
httpCheckFrequency is the duration between checking http for new data. If DynamicKubeletConfig (deprecated; default off) is on, when dynamically updating this field, consider that shortening the duration will cause the Kubelet to poll staticPodURL more frequently, which may have a negative performance impact. Default: "20s"
staticPodURL
string
staticPodURL is the URL for accessing static pods to run. If DynamicKubeletConfig (deprecated; default off) is on, when dynamically updating this field, consider that the set of static pods specified at the new URL may be different than the ones the Kubelet initially started with, and this may disrupt your node. Default: ""
staticPodURLHeader
map[string][]string
staticPodURLHeader is a map of slices with HTTP headers to use when accessing the podURL. If DynamicKubeletConfig (deprecated; default off) is on, when dynamically updating this field, consider that it may disrupt the ability to read the latest set of static pods from StaticPodURL. Default: nil
address
string
address is the IP address for the Kubelet to serve on (set to 0.0.0.0 for all interfaces). If DynamicKubeletConfig (deprecated; default off) is on, when dynamically updating this field, consider that it may disrupt components that interact with the Kubelet server. Default: "0.0.0.0"
port
int32
port is the port for the Kubelet to serve on. The port number must be between 1 and 65535, inclusive. If DynamicKubeletConfig (deprecated; default off) is on, when dynamically updating this field, consider that it may disrupt components that interact with the Kubelet server. Default: 10250
readOnlyPort
int32
readOnlyPort is the read-only port for the Kubelet to serve on with no authentication/authorization. The port number must be between 1 and 65535, inclusive. Setting this field to 0 disables the read-only service. If DynamicKubeletConfig (deprecated; default off) is on, when dynamically updating this field, consider that it may disrupt components that interact with the Kubelet server. Default: 0 (disabled)
tlsCertFile
string
tlsCertFile is the file containing x509 Certificate for HTTPS. (CA cert, if any, concatenated after server cert). If tlsCertFile and tlsPrivateKeyFile are not provided, a self-signed certificate and key are generated for the public address and saved to the directory passed to the Kubelet's --cert-dir flag. If DynamicKubeletConfig (deprecated; default off) is on, when dynamically updating this field, consider that it may disrupt components that interact with the Kubelet server. Default: ""
tlsPrivateKeyFile
string
tlsPrivateKeyFile is the file containing x509 private key matching tlsCertFile. If DynamicKubeletConfig (deprecated; default off) is on, when dynamically updating this field, consider that it may disrupt components that interact with the Kubelet server. Default: ""

[]string
tlsCipherSuites is the list of allowed cipher suites for the server. Values are from tls package constants (https://golang.org/pkg/crypto/tls/#pkg-constants). If DynamicKubeletConfig (deprecated; default off) is on, when dynamically updating this field, consider that it may disrupt components that interact with the Kubelet server. Default: nil
tlsMinVersion
string
tlsMinVersion is the minimum TLS version supported. Values are from tls package constants (https://golang.org/pkg/crypto/tls/#pkg-constants). If DynamicKubeletConfig (deprecated; default off) is on, when dynamically updating this field, consider that it may disrupt components that interact with the Kubelet server. Default: ""
rotateCertificates
bool
rotateCertificates enables client certificate rotation. The Kubelet will request a new certificate from the certificates.k8s.io API. This requires an approver to approve the certificate signing requests. If DynamicKubeletConfig (deprecated; default off) is on, when dynamically updating this field, consider that disabling it may disrupt the Kubelet's ability to authenticate with the API server after the current certificate expires. Default: false
serverTLSBootstrap
bool
serverTLSBootstrap enables server certificate bootstrap. Instead of self signing a serving certificate, the Kubelet will request a certificate from the 'certificates.k8s.io' API. This requires an approver to approve the certificate signing requests (CSR). The RotateKubeletServerCertificate feature must be enabled when setting this field. If DynamicKubeletConfig (deprecated; default off) is on, when dynamically updating this field, consider that disabling it will stop the renewal of Kubelet server certificates, which can disrupt components that interact with the Kubelet server in the long term, due to certificate expiration. Default: false

But if nodeStatusUpdateFrequency is set explicitly, nodeStatusReportFrequency's default value will be set to nodeStatusUpdateFrequency for backward compatibility. Default: "5m"
nodeLeaseDurationSeconds
int32
nodeLeaseDurationSeconds is the duration the Kubelet will set on its corresponding Lease, when the NodeLease feature is enabled. This feature provides an indicator of node health by having the Kubelet create and periodically renew a lease, named after the node, in the kube-node-lease namespace. If the lease expires, the node can be considered unhealthy. The lease is currently renewed every 10s, per KEP-0009. In the future, the lease renewal interval may be set based on the lease duration. The field value must be greater than 0. Requires the NodeLease feature gate to be enabled. If DynamicKubeletConfig (deprecated; default off) is on, when dynamically updating this field, consider that decreasing the duration may reduce tolerance for issues that temporarily prevent the Kubelet from renewing the lease (e.g. a short-lived network issue).

  • "promiscuous-bridge": make the container bridge promiscuous.
  • "hairpin-veth": set the hairpin flag on container veth interfaces.
  • "none": do nothing.

Generally, one must set --hairpin-mode=hairpin-veth to achieve hairpin NAT, because promiscuous-bridge assumes the existence of a container bridge named cbr0. If DynamicKubeletConfig (deprecated; default off) is on, when dynamically updating this field, consider that it may require a node reboot, depending on the network plugin. Default: "promiscuous-bridge"

maxPods
int32
maxPods is the maximum number of Pods that can run on this Kubelet. The value must be a non-negative integer. If DynamicKubeletConfig (deprecated; default off) is on, when dynamically updating this field, consider that changes may cause Pods to fail admission on Kubelet restart, and may change the value reported in Node.Status.Capacity[v1.ResourcePods], thus affecting future scheduling decisions. Increasing this value may also decrease performance, as more Pods can be packed into a single node. Default: 110
podCIDR
string
podCIDR is the CIDR to use for pod IP addresses, only used in standalone mode. In cluster mode, this is obtained from the control plane. Dynamic Kubelet Config (deprecated): This field should always be set to the empty default. It should only set for standalone Kubelets, which cannot use Dynamic Kubelet Config. Default: ""

If DynamicKubeletConfig (deprecated; default off) is on, when dynamically updating this field, consider that limits set for containers will result in different cpu.cfs_quota settings. This will trigger container restarts on the node being reconfigured. Default: "100ms"
nodeStatusMaxImages
int32
nodeStatusMaxImages caps the number of images reported in Node.status.images. The value must be greater than -2. Note: If -1 is specified, no cap will be applied. If 0 is specified, no image is returned. If DynamicKubeletConfig (deprecated; default off) is on, when dynamically updating this field, consider that different values can be reported on node status. Default: 50

kubeAPIBurst
int32
kubeAPIBurst is the burst to allow while talking with kubernetes API server. This field cannot be a negative number. If DynamicKubeletConfig (deprecated; default off) is on, when dynamically updating this field, consider that it may impact scalability by changing the amount of traffic the Kubelet sends to the API server. Default: 10
serializeImagePulls
bool
serializeImagePulls when enabled, tells the Kubelet to pull images one at a time. We recommend ∗not∗ changing the default value on nodes that run docker daemon with version < 1.9 or an Aufs storage backend. Issue #10959 has more details.

meta/v1.Duration
evictionPressureTransitionPeriod is the duration for which the kubelet has to wait before transitioning out of an eviction pressure condition. If DynamicKubeletConfig (deprecated; default off) is on, when dynamically updating this field, consider that lowering it may decrease the stability of the node when the node is overcommitted. Default: "5m"
evictionMaxPodGracePeriod
int32
evictionMaxPodGracePeriod is the maximum allowed grace period (in seconds) to use when terminating pods in response to a soft eviction threshold being met. This value effectively caps the Pod's terminationGracePeriodSeconds value during soft evictions. Note: Due to issue #64530, the behavior has a bug where this value currently just overrides the grace period during soft eviction, which can increase the grace period from what is set on the Pod. This bug will be fixed in a future release. If DynamicKubeletConfig (deprecated; default off) is on, when dynamically updating this field, consider that lowering it decreases the amount of time Pods will have to gracefully clean up before being killed during a soft eviction. Default: 0
evictionMinimumReclaim
map[string]string
evictionMinimumReclaim is a map of signal names to quantities that defines minimum reclaims, which describe the minimum amount of a given resource the kubelet will reclaim when performing a pod eviction while that resource is under pressure. For example: `{"imagefs.available": "2Gi"}`. If DynamicKubeletConfig (deprecated; default off) is on, when dynamically updating this field, consider that it may change how well eviction can manage resource pressure. Default: nil
podsPerCore
int32
podsPerCore is the maximum number of pods per core. Cannot exceed maxPods. The value must be a non-negative integer. If 0, there is no limit on the number of Pods. If DynamicKubeletConfig (deprecated; default off) is on, when dynamically updating this field, consider that changes may cause Pods to fail admission on Kubelet restart, and may change the value reported in `Node.status.capacity.pods`, thus affecting future scheduling decisions. Increasing this value may also decrease performance, as more Pods can be packed into a single node. Default: 0
enableControllerAttachDetach
bool
enableControllerAttachDetach enables the Attach/Detach controller to manage attachment/detachment of volumes scheduled to this node, and disables kubelet from executing any attach/detach operations. If DynamicKubeletConfig (deprecated; default off) is on, when dynamically updating this field, consider that changing which component is responsible for volume management on a live node may result in volumes refusing to detach if the node is not drained prior to the update, and if Pods are scheduled to the node before the volumes.kubernetes.io/controller-managed-attach-detach annotation is updated by the Kubelet. In general, it is safest to leave this value set the same as local config. Default: true
protectKernelDefaults
bool
protectKernelDefaults, if true, causes the Kubelet to error if kernel flags are not as it expects. Otherwise the Kubelet will attempt to modify kernel flags to match its expectation.

If DynamicKubeletConfig (deprecated; default off) is on, when dynamically updating this field, consider that it needs to be coordinated with other components, like kube-proxy, and the update will only be effective if MakeIPTablesUtilChains is enabled. Default: 14
iptablesDropBit
int32
iptablesDropBit is the bit of the iptables fwmark space to mark for dropping packets. Values must be within the range [0, 31]. Must be different from other mark bits.

string
The reservedSystemCPUs option specifies the CPU list reserved for the host level system threads and kubernetes related threads. This provide a "static" CPU list rather than the "dynamic" list by systemReserved and kubeReserved. This option does not support systemReservedCgroup or kubeReservedCgroup.
showHiddenMetricsForVersion
string
showHiddenMetricsForVersion is the previous version for which you want to show hidden metrics. Only the previous minor version is meaningful, other values will not be allowed. The format is `.`, e.g.: `1.16`. The purpose of this format is make sure you have the opportunity to notice if the next release hides additional metrics, rather than being surprised when they are permanently removed in the release after that. Default: ""
systemReservedCgroup
string
systemReservedCgroup helps the kubelet identify absolute name of top level CGroup used to enforce `systemReserved` compute resource reservation for OS system daemons. Refer to [Node Allocatable](https://git.k8s.io/community/contributors/design-proposals/node/node-allocatable.md) doc for more information. Dynamic Kubelet Config (deprecated): This field should not be updated without a full node reboot. It is safest to keep this value the same as the local config. Default: ""

enforceNodeAllocatable
[]string
This flag specifies the various Node Allocatable enforcements that Kubelet needs to perform. This flag accepts a list of options. Acceptable options are `none`, `pods`, `system-reserved` and `kube-reserved`. If `none` is specified, no other options may be specified. When `system-reserved` is in the list, systemReservedCgroup must be specified. When `kube-reserved` is in the list, kubeReservedCgroup must be specified. This field is supported only when `cgroupsPerQOS` is set to true. Refer to [Node Allocatable](https://git.k8s.io/community/contributors/design-proposals/node/node-allocatable.md) for more information. If DynamicKubeletConfig (deprecated; default off) is on, when dynamically updating this field, consider that removing enforcements may reduce the stability of the node. Alternatively, adding enforcements may reduce the stability of components which were using more than the reserved amount of resources; for example, enforcing kube-reserved may cause Kubelets to OOM if it uses more than the reserved resources, and enforcing system-reserved may cause system daemons to OOM if they use more than the reserved resources. Default: ["pods"]
allowedUnsafeSysctls
[]string
A comma separated whitelist of unsafe sysctls or sysctl patterns (ending in `∗`). Unsafe sysctl groups are `kernel.shm∗`, `kernel.msg∗`, `kernel.sem`, `fs.mqueue.∗`, and `net.∗`. For example: "`kernel.msg∗,net.ipv4.route.min_pmtu`" Default: []

shutdownGracePeriodCriticalPods specifies the duration used to terminate critical pods during a node shutdown. This should be less than shutdownGracePeriod. For example, if shutdownGracePeriod=30s, and shutdownGracePeriodCriticalPods=10s, during a node shutdown the first 20 seconds would be reserved for gracefully terminating normal pods, and the last 10 seconds would be reserved for terminating critical pods. Default: "0s"
reservedMemory
[]MemoryReservation
reservedMemory specifies a comma-separated list of memory reservations for NUMA nodes. The parameter makes sense only in the context of the memory manager feature. The memory manager will not allocate reserved memory for container workloads. For example, if you have a NUMA0 with 10Gi of memory and the reservedMemory was specified to reserve 1Gi of memory at NUMA0, the memory manager will assume that only 9Gi is available for allocation. You can specify a different amount of NUMA node and memory types. You can omit this parameter at all, but you should be aware that the amount of reserved memory from all NUMA nodes should be equal to the amount of memory specified by the [node allocatable](https://kubernetes.io/docs/tasks/administer-cluster/reserve-compute-resources/#node-allocatable). If at least one node allocatable parameter has a non-zero value, you will need to specify at least one NUMA node. Also, avoid specifying:
  1. Duplicates, the same NUMA node, and memory type, but with a different value.
  2. zero limits for any memory type.
  3. NUMAs nodes IDs that do not exist under the machine.
  4. memory types except for memory and hugepages-

Default: nil

enableProfilingHandler
bool
enableProfilingHandler enables profiling via web interface host:port/debug/pprof/ Default: true
enableDebugFlagsHandler
bool
enableDebugFlagsHandler enables flags endpoint via web interface host:port/debug/flags/v Default: true
seccompDefault
bool
SeccompDefault enables the use of `RuntimeDefault` as the default seccomp profile for all workloads. This requires the corresponding SeccompDefault feature gate to be enabled as well. Default: false
memoryThrottlingFactor
float64
MemoryThrottlingFactor specifies the factor multiplied by the memory limit or node allocatable memory when setting the cgroupv2 memory.high value to enforce MemoryQoS. Decreasing this factor will set lower high limit for container cgroups and put heavier reclaim pressure while increasing will put less reclaim pressure. See http://kep.k8s.io/2570 for more details. Default: 0.8

SerializedNodeConfigSource

SerializedNodeConfigSource allows us to serialize v1.NodeConfigSource. This type is used internally by the Kubelet for tracking checkpointed dynamic configs. It exists in the kubeletconfig API group because it is classified as a versioned input to the Kubelet.

KubeletWebhookAuthentication
webhook contains settings related to webhook bearer token authentication.
anonymous
KubeletAnonymousAuthentication
anonymous contains settings related to anonymous authentication.

KubeletAuthorization

Appears in:

FieldDescription
mode
KubeletAuthorizationMode
mode is the authorization mode to apply to requests to the kubelet server. Valid values are `AlwaysAllow` and `Webhook`. Webhook mode uses the SubjectAccessReview API to determine authorization.
webhook
KubeletWebhookAuthorization
webhook contains settings related to Webhook authorization.

Appears in:

KubeletWebhookAuthentication

Appears in:

FieldDescription
enabled
bool
enabled allows bearer token authentication backed by the tokenreviews.authentication.k8s.io API.
cacheTTL
meta/v1.Duration
cacheTTL enables caching of authentication results

KubeletWebhookAuthorization

Appears in:

FieldDescription
cacheAuthorizedTTL
meta/v1.Duration
cacheAuthorizedTTL is the duration to cache 'authorized' responses from the webhook authorizer.
cacheUnauthorizedTTL
meta/v1.Duration
cacheUnauthorizedTTL is the duration to cache 'unauthorized' responses from the webhook authorizer.

KubeletX509Authentication

Appears in:

FieldDescription
clientCAFile
string
clientCAFile is the path to a PEM-encoded certificate bundle. If set, any request presenting a client certificate signed by one of the authorities in the bundle is authenticated with a username corresponding to the CommonName, and groups corresponding to the Organization in the client certificate.

MemoryReservation

Appears in:

MemoryReservation specifies the memory reservation of different types for each NUMA node

FieldDescription
numaNode [Required]
int32
No description provided.
limits [Required]
core/v1.ResourceList
No description provided.

MemorySwapConfiguration

Appears in:

FieldDescription
swapBehavior
string
swapBehavior configures swap memory available to container workloads. May be one of "", "LimitedSwap": workload combined memory and swap usage cannot exceed pod memory limit "UnlimitedSwap": workloads can use unlimited swap, up to the allocatable limit.

ResourceChangeDetectionStrategy

(Alias of string)

Appears in:

ResourceChangeDetectionStrategy denotes a mode in which internal managers (secret, configmap) are discovering object changes.

LoggingConfiguration

Appears in:

LoggingConfiguration contains logging options Refer Logs Options for more information.

FieldDescription
format [Required]
string
Format Flag specifies the structure of log messages. default value of format is `text`
sanitization [Required]
bool
[Experimental] When enabled prevents logging of fields tagged as sensitive (passwords, keys, tokens). Runtime log sanitization may introduce significant computation overhead and therefore should not be enabled in production.`)
