<p>I have installed kubernetes on my ubuntu machine when I tried to run the following command I see external-IP as "pending", where svc.yml is service object in linkerd, link below</p>

<p>The yaml you specified for the Service has <code>type: LoadBalancer</code>. That will only work with a cloud provider - so not on your bare metal Ubuntu installation.</p>

<p>Modify the Service definition and specify a different type, for example <a href="https://kubernetes.io/docs/user-guide/services/#publishing-services---service-types" rel="noreferrer">clusterIP</a></p>
