Description

When kube-apiserver is used, the --enable-admission-plugins flag should include EventRateLimit. The admission control configuration file must also contain the corresponding EventRateLimit configuration. This rule checks the containers and initContainers command lines for kube-apiserver and reports a MissingAttribute if EventRateLimit is absent.
