Next, we will need to SSH into all four of the instances and install the Kubernetes components.

As the root user, perform the following steps on all four instances:

1. Update the packages and install the apt-transport-https package so that we can download from sources that use HTTPS:

   $ apt-get update 
   $ apt-get install -y apt-transport-https

2. Install the Google Cloud public key:

   $ curl -s https://packages.cloud.google.com/apt/doc/apt-key.gpg |
   apt-key add -    

3. Next, let's set up the repository:

   cat <<EOF >/etc/apt/sources.list.d/kubernetes.list
   deb http://apt.kubernetes.io/ kubernetes-xenial main
   EOF
   apt-get update
   apt-get install -y kubelet kubeadm kubectl docker.io kubernetes-cni

You'll need to make sure that the cgroup driver used by the kubelet on the master node is configured correctly to work with Docker. Make sure you're on the master node, then run the following:

docker info | grep -i cgroup
cat /etc/systemd/system/kubelet.service.d/10-kubeadm.conf

If these items don't match, you're going to need to change the kubelet configuration to match the Docker driver. Running sed -i "s/cgroup-driver=systemd/cgroup-driver=cgroupfs/g" /etc/systemd/system/kubelet.service.d/10-kubeadm.conf  should fix the settings, or you can manually open the systemd file and add the correct flag to the appropriate environment. After that's complete, restart the service:

$ systemctl daemon-reload
$ systemctl restart kubelet
