kubelet complete command line reference

$ kubelet -h
The kubelet is the primary "node agent" that runs on each
node. It can register the node with the apiserver using one of: the hostname; a flag to
override the hostname; or specific logic for a cloud provider.
The kubelet works in terms of a PodSpec. A PodSpec is a YAML or JSON object
that describes a pod. The kubelet takes a set of PodSpecs that are provided through
various mechanisms (primarily through the apiserver) and ensures that the containers
described in those PodSpecs are running and healthy. The kubelet doesn't manage
containers which were not created by Kubernetes.
Other than from an PodSpec from the apiserver, there are three ways that a container
manifest can be provided to the Kubelet.
File: Path passed as a flag on the command line. Files under this path will be monitored
periodically for updates. The monitoring period is 20s by default and is configurable
via a flag.
HTTP endpoint: HTTP endpoint passed as a parameter on the command line. This endpoint
is checked every 20 seconds (also configurable with a flag).
HTTP server: The kubelet can also listen for HTTP and respond to a simple API
(underspec'd currently) to submit a new manifest.
Usage:
kubelet [flags]
Flags:
--add-dir-header                                           If true, adds the file directory to the header of the log messages
--address ip                                               The IP address for the Kubelet to serve on (set to '0.0.0.0' or '::' for listening in all interfaces and IP families) (default 0.0.0.0) (DEPRECATED: This parameter should be set via the config file specified by the Kubelet's --config flag. See https://kubernetes.io/docs/tasks/administer-cluster/kubelet-config-file/ for more information.)
--allowed-unsafe-sysctls strings                           Comma-separated whitelist of unsafe sysctls or unsafe sysctl patterns (ending in *). Use these at your own risk.

--anonymous-auth                                           Enables anonymous requests to the Kubelet server. Requests that are not rejected by another authentication method are treated as anonymous requests. Anonymous requests have a username of system:anonymous, and a group name of system:unauthenticated. (default true) (DEPRECATED: This parameter should be set via the config file specified by the Kubelet's --config flag. See https://kubernetes.io/docs/tasks/administer-cluster/kubelet-config-file/ for more information.)

Due to legacy concerns, it will follow the standard CLI deprecation timeline before being removed.)
--authentication-token-webhook                             Use the TokenReview API to determine authentication for bearer tokens. (DEPRECATED: This parameter should be set via the config file specified by the Kubelet's --config flag.

--bootstrap-kubeconfig string                              Path to a kubeconfig file that will be used to get client certificate for kubelet. If the file specified by --kubeconfig does not exist, the bootstrap kubeconfig is used to request a client certificate from the API server. On success, a kubeconfig file referencing the generated client certificate and key is written to the path specified by --kubeconfig. The client certificate and key file will be stored in the directory pointed by --cert-dir.
--cert-dir string                                          The directory where the TLS certs are located. If --tls-cert-file and --tls-private-key-file are provided, this flag will be ignored. (default "/var/lib/kubelet/pki")

If set, the cloud provider determines the name of the node (consult cloud provider documentation to determine if and how the hostname is used). (DEPRECATED: will be removed in 1.23, in favor of removing cloud provider code from Kubelet.)
--cluster-dns strings                                      Comma-separated list of DNS server IP address.  This value is used for containers DNS server in case of Pods with "dnsPolicy=ClusterFirst". Note: all DNS servers appearing in the list MUST serve the same set of records otherwise name resolution within the cluster may not work correctly. There is no guarantee as to which DNS server may be contacted for name resolution. (DEPRECATED: This parameter should be set via the config file specified by the Kubelet's --config flag.
