Howdy. I’m on “Labs -> Verify platform binaries”. The question is “Download kubernetes binary for version v1.20.0 and place it in the directory - /opt/” But… what is a ‘kubernetes binary’? There are a ton of different binaries to choose from, not just one. Client? Server? Node? The Hint link takes you here: https://kubernetes.io/releases/notes/#downloads-for-v1-20-0, which then tells you to go to the CHANGELOG.md, which then has no single link for a ‘kubernetes binary’… :slightly_smiling_face: So what is this question expecting? Thanks!

Jesse Adelman:
Hmm… The question is asking for the binaries… but is the question actually wrong, and should refer to the source code?

Well, for me the question was for my part, quite short

Download Kubernetes source code binary for version v1.31.0 and place it in the directory - /opt/

Went to the github:

Made that

 curl -L -o kubernetes.tar.gz https://dl.k8s.io/v1.31.0/kubernetes.tar.gz

Failed

Then made

curl -L -o kubernetes.tar.gz https://dl.k8s.io/v1.31.0/kubernetes-src.tar.gz

Also failed.

Found this page, went to the kodekloud repository

Adapted the details to match the version

 wget -O /opt/kubernetes.tar.gz https://dl.k8s.io/v1.31.0/kubernetes.tar.gz

Failed again…

Skipped

as suprised to find the good one under /opt/downloads was the v1.31.1 !!!

:sob:
