Kubernetes Cluster State
Kubernetes Cluster State
Plugin: go.d.plugin Module: k8s_state
Overview
This collector monitors Kubernetes Nodes, Pods and Containers.
This collector is supported on all platforms.
This collector only supports collecting metrics from a single instance of this integration.
Default Behavior
Auto-Detection
This integration doesn’t support auto-detection.
Limits
The default configuration for this integration does not impose any limits on data collection.
Performance Impact
The default configuration for this integration is not expected to impose a significant performance impact on the system.
Setup
Prerequisites
No action required.
Configuration
File
The configuration file name for this integration is go.d/k8s_state.conf.
You can edit the configuration file using the edit-config script from the
Netdata config directory.
cd /etc/netdata 2>/dev/null || cd /opt/netdata/etc/netdata
sudo ./edit-config go.d/k8s_state.conf
Options
There are no configuration options.
Examples
There are no configuration examples.
Metrics
Metrics grouped by scope.
The scope defines the instance that the metric belongs to. An instance is uniquely identified by a set of labels.
Per node
These metrics refer to the Node.
Labels:
| Label | Description |
|---|---|
| k8s_cluster_id | Cluster ID. This is equal to the kube-system namespace UID. |
| k8s_cluster_name | Cluster name. Cluster name discovery only works in GKE. |
| k8s_node_name | Node name. |

Alerts
There are no alerts configured by default for this integration.
Troubleshooting
Debug Mode
To troubleshoot issues with the k8s_state collector, run the go.d.plugin with the debug option enabled. The output
should give you clues as to why the collector isn’t working.
-
Navigate to the
plugins.ddirectory, usually at/usr/libexec/netdata/plugins.d/. If that’s not the case on your system, opennetdata.confand look for thepluginssetting under[directories].cd /usr/libexec/netdata/plugins.d/ -
Switch to the
netdatauser.sudo -u netdata -s -
Run the
go.d.pluginto debug the collector:./go.d.plugin -d -m k8s_state
