  Don't use these flags. Using deprecated flags causes the server to print a warning. Using a removed flag causes the server to abort the startup.

* The following deprecated flags were removed from `kubelet`:

  * `api-servers` - add apiserver addresses to the kubeconfig file instead.

    *   Support for IPv6 Kubernetes control and data planes.
    *   Support for Kubernetes IPv6 cluster deployments using kubeadm.
    *   Support for the iptables kube-proxy backend using ip6tables.
    *   Relies on CNI 0.6.0 binaries for IPv6 pod networking.
    *   Adds IPv6 support for kube-dns using SRV records.
    *   Caveats

### Scheduling

  
    A previous release built hyperkube using the debian-hyperkube-base@v1.0.0,
    which was updated to address a CVE in the CNI plugins.
    
    A side-effect of using this new image was that the networking packages
    (namely `iptables`) drifted from the versions used in the kube-proxy images.
  
    The following issues were filed on kube-proxy failures when using hyperkube:

* kube-apiserver: the `Priority` admission plugin is now enabled by default when using `--enable-admission-plugins`. If using `--admission-control` to fully specify the set of admission plugins, the `Priority` admission...

* In-place node upgrades to this release from versions 1.7.14, 1.8.9, and 1.9.4 are not supported if using subpath volumes with PVCs.  Such pods should be drained from the node first.

- Fixed occasional pod cgroup freeze when using cgroup v1 and systemd driver.

    * Please convert your `v1alpha1` configuration files to `v1alpha2` using the
    * `kubeadm config migrate` command of kubeadm v1.11.x
