In robotics and automation, a control loop is a non-terminating loop that regulates the state of a system. Here is one example of a control loop: a thermostat in a room. When you set the temperature, that's telling the thermostat about your desired state. The actual room temperature is the current state. The thermostat acts to bring the current state closer to the desired state, by turning equipment on or off.| Kubernetes
Kubernetes provides a command line tool for communicating with a Kubernetes cluster's control plane, using the Kubernetes API. This tool is named kubectl. For configuration, kubectl looks for a file named config in the $HOME/.kube directory. You can specify other kubeconfig files by setting the KUBECONFIG environment variable or by setting the --kubeconfig flag. This overview covers kubectl syntax, describes the command operations, and provides common examples. For details about each command,...| Kubernetes
API-initiated eviction is the process by which you use the Eviction API to create an Eviction object that triggers graceful pod termination. You can request eviction by calling the Eviction API directly, or programmatically using a client of the API server, like the kubectl drain command. This creates an Eviction object, which causes the API server to terminate the Pod. API-initiated evictions respect your configured PodDisruptionBudgets and terminationGracePeriodSeconds. Using the API to cre...| Kubernetes
Applications running in a Kubernetes cluster find and communicate with each other, and the outside world, through the Service abstraction. This document explains what happens to the source IP of packets sent to different types of Services, and how you can toggle this behavior according to your needs. Before you begin Terminology This document makes use of the following terms: NAT Network address translation Source NAT Replacing the source IP on a packet; in this page, that usually means repla...| Kubernetes
FEATURE STATE: Kubernetes v1.29 [stable] Controlling the behavior of the Kubernetes API server in an overload situation is a key task for cluster administrators. The kube-apiserver has some controls available (i.e. the --max-requests-inflight and --max-mutating-requests-inflight command-line flags) to limit the amount of outstanding work that will be accepted, preventing a flood of inbound requests from overloading and potentially crashing the API server, but these flags are not enough to ens...| Kubernetes
This page provides hints on diagnosing DNS problems. Before you begin You need to have a Kubernetes cluster, and the kubectl command-line tool must be configured to communicate with your cluster. It is recommended to run this tutorial on a cluster with at least two nodes that are not acting as control plane hosts. If you do not already have a cluster, you can create one by using minikube or you can use one of these Kubernetes playgrounds:| Kubernetes
