Hi Guys,

Just a question.
While am setting up a k8-cluster V1.20.0 through kubeadm, I see below error related to cgroup driver.

root@controlplane:~# kubeadm join 10.18.192.6:6443 --token 7vfq1k.fj12vmi2fc4jd6if --discovery-token-ca-cert-hash sha256:14e18f9160d459168a183f2a386a8e83f73d83adf79bd8de54293736a16f3d91

To see the stack trace of this error execute with --v=5 or higher

Any one faced the same error n resolved?
I got stuck here from long time.
Also already tried below technote but no luck.

Swapnil S:
Change docker cgeoup to systemd on all nodes, restart docker service on all node and execute kubeadm init

# Restart the Docker service by running the following command:
