- support for the `v1alpha3` configuration file format is deprecated and will be removed in 1.14. Use `kubeadm config migrate` to migrate `v1alpha3` configuration files to `v1beta1`, which provides improvements in image repository management, addons configuration, and other areas. The documentation for `v1beta1` can be found here: https://godoc.org/k8s.io/kubernetes/cmd/kubeadm/app/apis/kubeadm/v1beta1...

* kubeadm now uses an upgraded API version for the configuration file, `kubeadm.k8s.io/v1alpha2`. kubeadm in v1.11 will still be able to read `v1alpha1` configuration, and will automatically convert the configuration to `v1alpha2`, both internally and when storing the configuration in the ConfigMap in the cluster. ([#63788](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/63788), [@luxas](https://github.com/luxas))

*   The admission webhook configurations API, part of the admissionregistration API, is now at v1beta1. Delete any existing webhook configurations before you upgrade, and update your configuration files to use the latest API. For this and the previous change, see also [the documentation](https://kubernetes.io/docs/admin/extensible-admission-controllers/#exter...
