Environment

RKE

Situation

Task

This how-to article outlines how to enable pod presets on your cluster. This is done by enabling the PodPreset admission plugin and the settings.k8s.io/v1alpha1 API for the kube-apiserver.

Pre-requisites

Kubernetes version 1.10 and above
Access to edit the cluster in yaml or the cluster.yaml file you used with RKE.

Resolution

Get to the cluster yaml in Rancher by editing the cluster and selecting "edit as yaml" or opening the RKE cluster.yml file. Modify the kube-api section to resemble the following and hit save or run up:

services:
  kube-api:
    extra_args:
      runtime-config: authorization.k8s.io/v1beta1=true,settings.k8s.io/v1alpha1=true
      enable-admission-plugins: PodPreset,NamespaceLifecycle,LimitRanger,ServiceAccount,DefaultStorageClass,DefaultTolerationSeconds,MutatingAdmissionWebhook,ValidatingAdmissionWebhook,ResourceQuota,NodeRestriction,Priority,TaintNodesByCondition,PersistentVolumeClaimResize

Notice that settings.k8s.io/v1alpha1/podpreset and PodPreset are added to the runtime-config and admission plugins.
