Calendar Grey April 10, 2018
Dist Redhat Esm H88
The Kubernetes platform is now no longer supported in the RHEL Extras repository; users are encouraged to transition to Red Hat OpenShift Container Platform.
Kubernetes and its dependencies have been deprecated in the Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7 Extras channel

Solution

Red Hat OpenShift Container Platform will continue to provide Red Hat’s enterprise distribution of Kubernetes.

Summary

The kubernetes packages provide utilities for container cluster management.
Kubernetes and its dependencies will no longer be updated through the Extras channel. Instead, the Red Hat customers are advised to use Red Hat's supported Kubernetes-based products such as Red Hat OpenShift Container Platform.
Components impacted by this change include the following deprecated Kubernetes RPM packages, images, and associated documentation:
RPM Packages:
* kubernetes * kubernetes-devel * kubernetes-client * kubernetes-master * kubernetes-node * kubernetes-unit-test * cadvisor
Container Images:
* registry.access.redhat.com/rhel7/kubernetes-apiserver * registry.access.redhat.com/rhel7/kubernetes-controller-mgr * registry.access.redhat.com/rhel7/kubernetes-scheduler
Documentation:
* The "Getting Started with Kubernetes" guide linked from the References section.
Additional information and guidance are provided in the Red Hat Enterprise Linux Atomic Host 7.5 Release Notes linked from the References section.
