Attempting the worker node lab, but could not find kubelet service status or log . . .

Mayur Sharma:
Yeah, true I have set of aliases for kubectl commands that I use during CKAD

too bad for hacker noon that they didn’t get at least the name of the exam right :face_with_hand_over_mouth:
CKA stands for Certified Kubernetes Administrator, not Application.

@Hinodeya learn: I completed the lab and following are my learnings,

  1. Issues regarding worker node should be check first by describing the node, if nothing found ssh the node
  2. check the kubelet service status (service kubelet status)
  3. verify logs and work accordingly (journalctl -u kubelet.service)
    Kube-proxy is also a worker node component, but not sure how is it installed on box, or how to debug. If you may please enlighten me with its kind and debug things, would be greatful.

Hinodeya learn:
@Mayur Sharma kube-proxy is not a worker it’s pod

Hinodeya learn:
if you want to debug just check the logs of kube-proxy

Hinodeya learn:
and do not forget the static pod on the location is here /etc/kubernetes/manifests

Mayur Sharma:
@Hinodeya learn, Ahh, then it would be on master node.

And, yes I checked the 10-kubeadm.conf file under /etc/systemd/system/kubelet-service.d folder

Read the kubeconfig file and kubelet-config.yaml aslo

Thanks for clearing the doubt!
