NKP 2.17.1 – Kommander installation hangs when overriding platform application resources

Hi everyone,

I’m running Nutanix Kubernetes Platform (NKP) 2.17.1 and I’m trying to reduce the CPU/memory requests and limits of some platform applications after installing Kommander.

I’m following this Nutanix documentation:

https://portal.nutanix.com/page/documents/details?targetId=Nutanix-Kubernetes-Platform-v2_17:top-configure-apps-after-install-kommander-t.html

First, I generated the Kommander installation configuration:

nkp install kommander --init > kommander.yaml

I then modified the YAML according to the documentation. For example, I configured prometheus-adapter as follows:

apiVersion: config.kommander.mesosphere.io/v1alpha1

kind: Installation

apps:

  # ...

  prometheus-adapter:

    enabled: true

    values: |

      resources:

        limits:

          cpu: 1

        requests:

          cpu: 500m

  # ...

Then I ran:

nkp install kommander \

  --installer-config ./kommander_minimal.yaml \

  --kubeconfig=${CLUSTER_NAME}.conf

However, the command hangs and does not complete.

When I check the HelmReleases:

kubectl get hr -A

the applications whose resources I modified do not become READY=True.

I’m not sure whether I am overriding the resources incorrectly, or whether there is another issue related to the HelmReleases or application dependencies.

Am I doing something wrong here?

Thank you in advance for your help!
