OpenShift Running Old Kubernetes Version (Minishift)


I have installed the latest Minishift release 1.34.3 on Windows 10 Hyper-V. The OpenShift client version is 4.6.16 as expected however the Kubernetes version is 1.11.

PS C:\Tools> minishift version
minishift v1.34.3+4b58f89

PS C:\Tools> oc version
Client Version: 4.6.16
Kubernetes Version: v1.11.0+d4cacc0

From what I understand, OpenShift 4.6 should be running Kubernetes v.1.19 under the hood. How can I upgrade my OpenShift cluster to run a later version of Kubernetes?


Solution

  • minishift is based on OpenShift 3, not the newer OpenShift 4.

    Note: Minishift runs OpenShift 3.x clusters. Due to different installation methods, OpenShift 4.x clusters are not supported.

    The client, oc you are using is a newer version.
