Introduction

This chart bootstraps a Metrics Server deployment on a Kubernetes cluster using the Helm package manager.

Bitnami charts can be used with Kubeapps for deployment and management of Helm Charts in clusters.

Looking to use Metrics Server in production? Try VMware Application Catalog, the enterprise edition of Bitnami Application Catalog.

Prerequisites

  • Kubernetes 1.19+
  • Helm 3.2.0+

Installing the Chart

To install the chart with the release name my-release:

helm install my-release bitnami/metrics-server

These commands deploy Metrics Server on the Kubernetes cluster in the default configuration. The Parameters section lists the parameters that can be configured during installation.

Tip: List all releases using helm list

Uninstalling the Chart

To uninstall/delete the my-release deployment:

helm delete my-release

The command removes all the Kubernetes components associated with the chart and deletes the release.

Specify each parameter using the --set key=value[,key=value] argument to helm install. For example,

helm install my-release \
  --set rbac.create=true bitnami/metrics-server

The above command enables RBAC authentication.

Alternatively, a YAML file that specifies the values for the parameters can be provided while installing the chart. For example,

helm install my-release -f values.yaml bitnami/metrics-server

Tip: You can use the default values.yaml

Configuration and installation details

Rolling vs Immutable tags

It is strongly recommended to use immutable tags in a production environment. This ensures your deployment does not change automatically if the same tag is updated with a different image.

Bitnami will release a new chart updating its containers if a new version of the main container, significant changes, or critical vulnerabilities exist.

Enable RBAC security

In order to enable Role-Based Access Control (RBAC) for Metrics Server, use the following parameter: rbac.create=true.

Configure certificates

If you are providing your own certificates for the API Service, set insecureSkipTLSVerify to "false", and provide a caBundle consisting of the base64-encoded certificate chain.

Set Pod affinity

This chart allows you to set custom Pod affinity using the affinity parameter. Find more information about Pod affinity in the Kubernetes documentation.

As an alternative, you can use one of the preset configurations for pod affinity, pod anti-affinity, and node affinity available at the bitnami/common chart. To do so, set the podAffinityPreset, podAntiAffinityPreset, or nodeAffinityPreset parameters.

Upgrading

To 6.0.0

This major release renames several values in this chart and adds missing features, in order to be aligned with the rest of the assets in the Bitnami charts repository.

Affected values:

  • service.port was deprecated. We recommend using service.ports.http instead.
  • service.nodePort was deprecated. We recommend using service.nodePorts.https instead.
  • extraArgs is now interpreted as an array.

To 5.2.0

This version introduces bitnami/common, a library chart as a dependency. More documentation about this new utility could be found here. Please, make sure that you have updated the chart dependencies before executing any upgrade.

To 5.0.0

On November 13, 2020, Helm v2 support formally ended. This major version is the result of the required changes applied to the Helm Chart to be able to incorporate the different features added in Helm v3 and to be consistent with the Helm project itself regarding the Helm v2 EOL.

Learn more about this change and related upgrade considerations.

To 4.0.0

Backwards compatibility is not guaranteed unless you modify the labels used on the chart's deployments. Use the workaround below to upgrade from versions previous to 4.0.0. The following example assumes that the release name is metrics-server:

kubectl delete deployment metrics-server --cascade=false
helm upgrade metrics-server bitnami/metrics-server

To 2.0.0

Backwards compatibility is not guaranteed unless you modify the labels used on the chart's deployments. Use the workaround below to upgrade from versions previous to 2.0.0. The following example assumes that the release name is metrics-server:

kubectl patch deployment metrics-server --type=json -p='[{"op": "remove", "path": "/spec/selector/matchLabels/chart"}]'
