Sorry folks. Summer and work got in the way but will try to do at least 2 to 3 of these a week depending on the situation. By the way if any of you want to post a task please do so. Even if you think it is a very simple one, remember we have a lot of newbies and I still remember my first K8S cluster setup and the joy at seeing output after typing kubectl get nodes :) !!
Today we will turn on the dashboard. The default dashboard is pretty basic and again you should really concentrate on the cli but it can be fun. As a side note the big Tesla kubernetes hack that took place was because someone exposed their Kubernetes cluster to the internet with full permissions so it is a good idea to study authentication and authorization as well :)
In Minikube setting up the dashboard is easy:
minikube addons enable dashboard
As it states in the output it is also a good idea to enable the metrics-server as well:
minikube addons enable metrics-server
Now type:
minikube dashboard --url
Click on the link and volia!
