Installation
Default installation with manifests
To obtain a default installation without Prometheus alerting interlock or Slack notifications:
latest=$(curl -s https://api.github.com/repos/kubereboot/kured/releases | jq -r '.[0].tag_name')
kubectl apply -f "https://github.com/kubereboot/kured/releases/download/$latest/kured-$latest-dockerhub.yaml"
If you want to customise the installation, download the manifest and edit it in accordance with the following section before application.
Using the Helm-Chart
Kured also provides its own helm-chart. Detailed instructions and documentation can be found here.
Kubernetes & OS Compatibility
The daemon image contains versions of k8s.io/client-go and
k8s.io/kubectl (the binary of kubectl in older releases) for the purposes of
maintaining the lock and draining worker nodes. Kubernetes aims to provide
forwards and backwards compatibility of one minor version between client and
server:

Versions >=1.1.0 enter the host mount namespace to invoke
systemctl reboot, so should work on any systemd distribution.
