May I ask what the bitnami/kubectl:latest image is used for, and what issues might arise if it is not installed?

What will be the impact if it is not installed?

Kubectl is the command-line API management tool for k8s. Without it, you can’t use it.
Of course, you can use other tools.

This package is an image containing kubectl maintained by an open-source team, with over 1 billion downloads. You can use it with confidence.

So here come the questions:

  1. Do the two deployments, tidb-controller-manager and tidb-scheduler, need to use this command?
  2. We are using an internal Docker repository, and it seems that the operator cannot modify the Docker repository for this image, so the pod cannot use this image.

Rest assured, there’s no doubt about that. The issue is that there is no configuration for this image in the value.yaml file of the operator, and our server cannot access this image.

After version 1.3.0 of tidb-operator, this image is no longer needed. Refer to PR: Optimize: Deprecate pod validating and mutating webhook by mianhk · Pull Request #4209 · pingcap/tidb-operator · GitHub
