Installing in GKE Cluster
If you are installing Config Syncer on a GKE cluster, you will need cluster admin permissions to install Config Syncer operator. Run the following command to grant admin permision to the cluster.
$ kubectl create clusterrolebinding "cluster-admin-$(whoami)" \
--clusterrole=cluster-admin \
--user="$(gcloud config get-value core/account)"
In addition, if your GKE cluster is a private cluster, you will need to either add an additional firewall rule that allows master nodes access port 8443/tcp on worker nodes, or change the existing rule that allows access to ports 443/tcp and 10250/tcp to also allow access to port 8443/tcp. The procedure to add or modify firewall rules is described in the official GKE documentation for private clusters mentioned before.
Verify installation
Config Syncer includes a check command to verify a cluster config. Download the pre-built binary from config-syncer Github releases and put the binary to some directory in your PATH.
$ kubed check --clusterconfig=./hack/deploy/config.yaml
