<p>Just started with kubernetes. I have three physical machines: 1 master, 2 nodes. I did basically getting started configuration. Everything seems up and running, nodes can communicate with master, but when I try to install a sample application (<a href="https://kubernetes.io/docs/setup/independent/create-cluster-kubeadm/" rel="nofollow noreferrer">see in following kubernetes guide</a>) 
 I get this warning over and over again:</p>

<blockquote>
  <p><code>kubelet does not have ClusterDNS IP configured and cannot create Pod using "ClusterFirst" policy. Falling back to DNSDefault policy.</code></p>
</blockquote>

<p>And I can't access the app in: master_ip:30001</p>

<p><strong>Any idea in what is going on and how to fix it?</strong></p>

<p>Here is the configuration:</p>

<h3>Edit 1:</h3>

<p>As Mike told me in his answer I got the DNS IP with : <code>kubectl get services --namespace=kube-system</code>. Things I've tried so far to change the command-line flags: </p>

<ul>
<li><ol>
<li>Add it in the ExecStart kubeadm.conf as --cluster-dns 10.96.0.10 </li>
</ol></li>
<li><ol start="2">
<li>Execute kubelet --cluster-dns 10.96.0.10 </li>
</ol></li>
</ul>

<p>Both without results</p>

<p><strong>The kubelet service needs a command-line flag to set the cluster DNS IP</strong> - it looks like you're running kube-dns, so you can get that IP by either running <code>kubectl get services --namespace=kube-system</code> or grabbing the IP from the "ClusterIP" field on the kube-dns service YAML or JSON config.</p>

<p>Once you have the IP, you'll have to set the <code>--cluster-dns</code> command-line flag for kubelet.</p>

<p>I haven't used kubeadm to setup a cluster, so I'm not sure how it runs the services and can't say how to change the command-line flags - hopefully somebody who knows can provide input for that piece.</p>
