For those with issues in this lab. When running kubectl top pod --all-namespaces I received an error. I found errors in the logs stating unable to handle the request (get nodes.metrics.k8s.io). I upgraded K8's to v1.16.4 and it has fixed the problem.

    Hi @scubaman31,

    Thanks for reporting this strange behavior.
    Although I did not have to go thru the upgrade process (to v1.16.4) for the metrics-server to work, the only strange behavior I noticed was a slight delay of the kubectl top ... command to produce an output with usage data when running it for the first time after the metrics-server deployment update.

    Regards,
    -Chris

    Haven't been able to get metrics-server working on any version so far.

    username@cka-master:~/metrics-server/deploy$ kubectl top node cka-master
Error from server (NotFound): nodemetrics.metrics.k8s.io "cka-master" not found

    I thought it was a problem with my configuration, so I reinstalled mutliple times and even tried different pod networks, different OSes (take systemd resolv.conf DNS out of the equation...) and it still won't work.
    I'm on K8S 1.16.4.

    I get a whole lot of this:

    Hi @undine,

    I see you mentioned v1.16.4 of Kubernetes. Any particular reason why you upgraded from the version suggested by the lab?

    I deployed the metrics-server successfully on 2 separate clusters, v1.16.1 and v1.16.4. I did not run into any issues, although I tried really hard to break my cluster.

    Since I have no visibility into your cluster's configuration, would you mind providing the output of the following commands?
    kubectl version
    kubectl get nodes
    kubectl get pods --all-namespaces -o wide
    cat kubeadm-config.yaml

    Thanks,
    -Chris
