# Kubernetes Node Problem Detector This chart installs a [node-problem-detector](https://github.com/kubernetes/node-problem-detector) daemonset. This tool aims to make various node problems visible to the upstream layers in cluster management stack. It is a daemon which runs on each node, detects node problems and reports them to apiserver. ## TL;DR; ```console $ helm install stable/node-problem-detector ``` ## Prerequisites - Kubernetes 1.9+ with Beta APIs enabled ## Installing the Chart To install the chart with the release name `my-release` and default configuration: ```console $ helm install --name my-release stable/node-problem-detector ``` ## Uninstalling the Chart To delete the chart: ```console $ helm delete my-release ``` ## Configuration Custom System log monitor config files can be created, see [here](https://github.com/kubernetes/node-problem-detector/tree/master/config) for examples.
