A cluster is a collection of nodes that runs containerized workloads. Portainer lets you keep track of your cluster and its individual nodes, including resource usage and configuration.

From the menu expand the Cluster section and select Details.

The following information is provided:

Attribute
Overview

Memory reservation

The amount of memory available to the cluster.

Memory used

CPU reservation

The amount of CPU that has been reserved in the cluster.

CPU used

Leader status

This section lists components and their leader node in your cluster.

MicroK8s cluster management

In this section you can see and make changes to the configuration of your MicroK8s cluster provisioned by Portainer.

Field/Option
Overview

Kubernetes version

Displays the version of Kubernetes that is running on your cluster. If a newer version of Kubernetes is available, you can click the Upgrade button to upgrade your cluster to the version specified. Note that upgrading may cause your cluster to be unavailable while the upgrade processes.

Required addons (already installed)

Displays a list of the already installed required addons for your cluster.

Optional addons

Displays the optional addons (if any) that are installed on your cluster, as well as any arguments that were used in their configuration. You can adjust the arguments for the addons here, click the Add addon button to add additional addons, or click the trash can icon next to an addon to remove it.

Click the Apply Changes button to apply any adjustments you have made to addon configurations, or Cancel to revert your changes.

Nodes

To view usage stats for a node, click the stats icon to the right of the node.

If you need to adjust elements of your Kubernetes configuration you can do so by selecting Setup in the left menu.

If you would like to define security constraints on the pods in your environment, select Security constraints.

The amount of memory used by the cluster. This is only visible if you have .

The amount of CPU used by the cluster. This is only visible if you have .

This section only appears when the environment was provisioned via the functionality.

This functionality is in beta and only tested with some configurations. Refer to our for caveats when using this feature.

This section lists the nodes in your cluster with information about each node. To view , click the name of the node in the list.

Node stats are only available when you have .

On MicroK8s environments provisioned with the feature, you will also see buttons to add and remove nodes as well as additional action icons to view the MicroK8s status (for control plane nodes) and to connect to the environment via SSH console.
