text: What happened: I have a Kubernetes Cluster with 2 Windows Server 2019 Core VMs as worker nodes. I upgraded first the cluster, and then the first Windows node following the docs here: Every step ran without issue, but the kubelet service was not started. This was not immediately obvious, since "restart-service kubelet" does not propagate the error. I think "start-service kubelet" would be better advice. The logs said: After changing the value of cgroupDriver manually in from "systemd" to "cgroupfs", the kubelet started successfully. What you expected to happen: One of 2 things: Either the Windows upgrade docs telling me what I need to do to fix this, or the kubeadm not breaking the configuration for windows in the first place. How to reproduce it (as minimally and precisely as possible): a windows node to a Kubernetes v1.19 cluster via kubeadm the cluster via kubeadm the Windows node following the docs Anything else we need to know?: Environment: Kubernetes version (use ): 1.20.1 Cloud provider or hardware configuration: OS (e.g: ): Windows Server 2019 Core Kernel (e.g. ): Install tools: kubeadm Network plugin and version (if this is a network-related bug): Others: /sig windows
this may cause by the default value of defaultCgroupDriver cgroupfs Would you provide the from Windows node?
/assign
kubeadm doesn't do anything about cgroup drivers on Windows because cgroups don't exist on Windows. ideally the kubelet checks about this should be skipped entirely in dockershim for non-Linux.
! However, windows docker return as cgroupfs.
probably 's output is the same structure on all OSes with being a default value. this field should not be checked on Windows at all.
/retitle kubelet: don't check for the Docker cgroup driver on Windows
adding since the PR is favorable. /triage accepted
