Known issues

Runtime​

  • When disk space begins to run out, precached images may be removed by kubelet/containerd, causing Kubernetes to fail​

Update​

  • OS upgrade (Windows 10 to Windows 11) will result in AKS Edge Essentials failing to work properly​

Deployment​

  • Deploying a K8s Linux node on a 4GB RAM host machine fails
  • New deployment fails when the execution policy is set to AllSigned (Set-ExecutionPolicy –ExecutionPolicy AllSigned)​
  • Uninstalling and reinstalling k8s/k3s causes a “deployment already exists” error when creating a new deployment, so a restart is necessary​
  • Event logging fails when uninstalling and reinstalling an MSI without a reboot in between​
  • When a deployment fails due to lack of memory/disk space, it creates an incomplete VHDX file that causes errors in later deployments​

Windows nodes​

  • On a K3s Windows node, load balancer klipper-lb pulls images from the internet when connected​
  • Adding a Windows node takes around ~10 minutes to complete​
  • K3s Windows node with Calico as the CNI is not yet supported​
  • No storage provisioner is available for the Windows node​
  • NFS subdir external provisioner pod fails on Windows nodes​
  • GitOps steps provided in the documentation are not compatible with Windows nodes
