I ran the Kubernetes agent installer command, but I do not see a Telegraf agent pod running via:

sudo kubectl --namespace monitoring get pods

Check if there were any errors deploying the DaemonSet:

sudo kubectl --namespace monitoring describe ds telegraf-ds

If there are errors related to SecurityContextConstraints, do the following:

1. Generate the Telegraf DaemonSet YAML

sudo kubectl --namespace monitoring get ds telegraf-ds -o yaml > /tmp/telegraf-ds.yaml

2. Stop the Telegraf service

sudo kubectl --namespace monitoring delete ds telegraf-ds

3. Create the necessary SecurityContextConstraint (see "Configuring Agent to Collect Data" section)

4. Re-create the Telegraf DaemonSet

I configured Telegraf to obtain information about my Kubernetes cluster, but I don’t see any information in Cloud Insights. I see "invalid header field value" errors in the Telegraf log file pertaining to the kubernetes input plugin I configured.

Ensure the referenced bearer_token file does not have a trailing newline. To verify, run the following command, and confirm that it returns 0:

tail -c1 <bearer_token_file>
