streaming requests on a different host interface than what the apiserver makes requests on (only the case if not using the built-in dockershim & setting the kubelet flag `--redirect-container-streaming=true`), then these requests will be broken. In that case, the feature can be temporarily disabled until the node configuration is corrected. We suggest setting `--redirect-container-streaming=false` on the kubelet to avoid issues.([#72552](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/72552), [@tallc...

   - In version 1.8, enable this behavior by setting the
     `--horizontal-pod-autoscaler-use-rest-clients` flag to `true`.

   - In version 1.9, this behavior will be enabled by default, and must be explicitly
     disabled by setting the `--horizontal-pod-autoscaler-use-rest-clients` flag to `false`.

### Cluster Lifecycle

* Kubeadm now includes CoreDNS version 1.6.5 ([#85108](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/85108), [@rajansandeep](https://github.com/rajansandeep))
    *  - `kubernetes` plugin adds metrics to measure kubernetes control plane latency.
    *  -  the `health` plugin now includes the `lameduck` option by default, which waits for a duration before shutting down.
