VPA 0.12 is not compatible with k8s 1.21 about charts HOT 6 CLOSED

I've fixed the Kubernetes minimum version in #349.

from charts.

We fixed this by setting the updater image back to 0.9.2. The issue remains though as the default values of the chart aren't consistent with its targeting 1.21+

Hi @cartucciam, the official doc is not always correct.

I can confirm that the recommender is working fine on version 1.21. The updater seems to need version 1.22.

On what version of Kubernetes have you seen a problem?

Hi @sebastien-prudhomme, thanks for answering this, we had issues running the chart on
1.21, the eviction stopped working complaining of a legacy API version.

If the updater seems to need version 1.22 why the chart targets k8s >= 1.21 and uses 0.12 as default for its image?

from charts.

Confirming this was an issue for us also in that the image tag 0.12.0 broke on Kubernetes 1.21 (as the vertical-pod-autoscaler docs disclose that they will); we needed to set

vertical-pod-autoscaler:
  admissionController:
    image:
      tag: 0.9.2
  updater:
    image:
      tag: 0.9.2
  recommender:
    image:
      tag: 0.9.2

otherwise, the updater was failing to evict pods:

evicting pod hamster-96d4585b7-8blzn failed: Eviction in version "v1" cannot be handled as a Eviction: no kind "Eviction" is registered for version "policy/v1" in scheme "k8s.io/kubernetes/pkg/api/legacyscheme/scheme.go:30"

from charts.

I've fixed the Kubernetes minimum version in #349.

Thanks!!!
