Troubleshooting

Pods not starting after Talos update¶

One reason can be that images used for kube-system do not match the Talos release. Run talosctl upgrade-k8s to resolve this.

Pod not starting because Jiva volume is already mounted at more than one place¶

This is rather brutal solution, but it works. I will improve it if I find a better way.

1. Get <NODE_IP> of node running JivaVolume for PVC: get-pvc-node and then enter PVC name
2. Reboot the node: talosctl reboot -n <NODE_IP>

Flux can't reconcile a helmrelease¶

• Get status of all helmreleases

  flux get helmreleases --all-namespaces
  

  or shorter

  flux get hr -A
  

• Make sure that sources can be accessed (as there might be typos)

  flux get sources helm -A
  flux get sources git -A
  flux get sources chart -A
  

• Get more information on helm release (start here when "install retries exhausted" or "Helm uninstall failed: uninstall: Release not loaded")

  kubectl describe helmrelease <RELEASE_NAME> -n <RELEASE_NAMESPACE>
  

• Restart when Flux gave up

  flux resume hr <RELEASE_NAME> -n <RELEASE_NAMESPACE>
  

Get CPU temperature in Proxmox for Asus PN50¶

Look at k10temp-pci-00c3 in the output of sensors command.
