Enable the Agent server by default

Release notes

As Kubernetes users are starting to use the GitLab Kubernetes Agent, first they have to configure it's GitLab side-component, the Kubernetes Agent Server. Until recently, this required the Agent Server to be enabled manually. As the solution matured in the past months, we are making the Kubernetes Agent Server enabled by default to simplify setup for GitLab administrators. Beside being enabled by default, the Kubernetes Agent Server accepts various configuration options to customize it according to your needs.

Goal

Enable the Agent sever by default

  1. Start with GDK (we've decided to not enable on GDK since most developers won't need it)
  2. Continue with the Helm chart
  3. Finish with Omnibus

It will also be needed:

  • document resources requirement increases: memory, cpu, Ingress (sub-path/DNS)
  • Notify users that this will now be on-by-default, and that they can expect the prior.
  • What they need to do to ensure that this works for their users (such as adding an additional DNS entry for kas.example.com)
