Deploy Windows Exporter pods on Google Kubernetes Engine

Google Kubernetes Engine (GKE) does not allow usage of kubernetes.io/os: windows label as node selector while deploying the Windows host process pods. Therefore, to deploy the Windows exporter pods on GKE, which enables monitoring resources on Windows nodes, you require to perform the following additional steps with the installation steps:

1. Add the following label to all the Windows nodes:
   

   appdynamics/os: windows

   CODE

2. Include the following in the Collectors values.yaml file:
   

   Collectors values.yaml
   appdynamics-cloud-k8s-monitoring:
     windowsExporterPod:
       tolerations:  
         - key: "node.kubernetes.io/os"
           operator: "Equal"
           value: "windows"
           effect: "NoSchedule"
       nodeSelector:
         kubernetes.io/os: null
         appdynamics/os: windows

   CODE
   

   node.kubernetes.io/os=windows:NoSchedule is a default taint added on Windows nodes in GKE. If there are any additional taints on your Windows nodes, see Monitor the Tainted Nodes.
