Sanitation cluster planners ask which packages to stage on nodes before kubeadm init. Which set is the standard baseline?
Select an answer to reveal the explanation.
Short Explanation
Before the ceremony, lay out the three tools of the trade: kubeadm, kubelet, and kubectl—and make sure kubelet will start. Helm charts and compose files can wait; they are not the init baseline.
Full Explanation
A typical kubeadm host install includes kubeadm, kubelet, and kubectl packages, with kubelet enabled so it runs under the kubelet service after init/join configures it. Workers still need kubelet; etcdctl-only is insufficient. Helm or mesh CLIs may be used later for addons but are not the core pre-init package set.
