• The deprecated experimental VerticalPodAutoscaler metrics are no longer supported, and have been removed. We recommend to use CustomResourceState metrics to gather metrics from custom resources like the Vertical Pod Autoscaler.
• Adhere to OTel-Prometheus standard for labels #2004 regulated label names to adhere with OTel-Prometheus standards, so existing label names that do not follow the same may be replaced by the ones that do. Please refer to the PR for more details.

It seems like there is no image available for this version?

docker pull registry.k8s.io/kube-state-metrics/kube-state-metrics:v2.9.0
Error response from daemon: manifest for registry.k8s.io/kube-state-metrics/kube-state-metrics:v2.9.0 not found: manifest unknown: Failed to fetch "v2.9.0"

Same for v2.9.1.

v2.8.2 also documeted here works!

[rexagod]

That will be available once kubernetes/k8s.io#5340 is in. :)

[rexagod]

Same goes for kubernetes/k8s.io#5339. Sorry for the delay!

[RamakrishnanArun]

These PRs were closed not merged. Would there be new ones created to watch for?

Oh I see one for 2.9.2 merged. Cool!

[mikkeloscar]

For us it's solved with 2.9.2
