- Kubelet.exe on Windows now checks that the process running as administrator and the executing user account is listed in the built-in administrators group.  This is the equivalent to checking the process is running as uid 0.

- Updating kubelet permissions check for Windows nodes to see if process is elevated instead of checking if process owner is in Administrators group ([#111079](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/111079), [@marosset](https://github.com/marosset)) [SIG Node and Windows]

- Kubeadm: make sure the etcd static pod startup probe uses /health?serializable=false while the liveness probe uses /health?serializable=true&exclude=NOSPACE. The NOSPACE exclusion would allow administrators to address space issues one member at a time.

- A new set of alpha metrics are reported by the Kubernetes scheduler under the `/metrics/resources` endpoint that allow administrators to easily see the resource consumption (requests and limits for all resources on the pods) and compare it to actual pod usage or node capacity.
