I deployed a k3s cluster into 2 raspberry pi 4. One as a master and the second as a worker using the script k3s offered with the following options:
For the master node:
curl -sfL https://get.k3s.io | INSTALL_K3S_EXEC='server --bind-address 192.168.1.113 (which is the master node ip)' sh -
To the agent node:
curl -sfL https://get.k3s.io | \
K3S_URL=https://192.168.1.113:6443 \
K3S_TOKEN=<master-token> \
INSTALL_K3S_EXEC='agent' sh-
Everything seems to work, but kubectl top nodes
returns the following:
NAME CPU(cores) CPU% MEMORY(bytes) MEMORY%
k3s-master 137m 3% 1285Mi 33%
k3s-node-01 <unknown> <unknown> <unknown> <unknown>
I also tried to deploy the k8s dashboard, according to what is written in the docs but it fails to work because it can't reach the metrics server and gets a timeout error:
"error trying to reach service: dial tcp 10.42.1.11:8443: i/o timeout"
and I see a lot of errors in the pod logs:
