Wrong documentation for supported kubernetes Version

Open Brice187 opened this issue 4 years ago • 3 comments

https://docs.checkmk.com/latest/en/monitoring_kubernetes.html

Support forKubernetes versions 1.18 and newer is currently limited, due to the fact that the official Kubernetes Python Client is not yet compatible with Kubernetes' newest API versions.

The python client supports Kubernetes ver. 1.21.x https://github.com/kubernetes-client/python

  1. The Kubernetes Python Client 21.0 is only available as an alpha version.
  2. It has only been available for 6 days.
  3. We will have to check what and how this works now.

  1. Kubernetes Python Client 21.7 is stable now -> https://github.com/kubernetes-client/python/releases/tag/v21.7.0
  2. ...
  3. Please check, because Kubernetes 1.18 is EOL and v1.21 is the current stable release.

Hi @Brice187 as we did not want to run into the same traps again, we reimplemented our Kubernetes integration from scratch. Please have a look into the soon arriving new article. It's already available in German and will be in English, soon. First, as an automated translation.

The Kubernetes monitoring has been completely re-worked and also the documentation is almost completely new. The issue with the supported versions of Kubernetes is handled in the Helm charts and not part of the documentation anymore.
