how to check whether RBAC is enabled, using kubectl

Question

I\'m trying to install a helm package on a kubernetes cluster which allegedly has RBAC disabled. I\'m getting a permission error mentioning clusterroles.rbac.authoriza

Answer 1

Option #1: If you have access to master node then login into and check below

ps -aef | grep -i apiserver
The options should have --authorization-mode=RBAC otherwise RBAC not enabled.

Option #2:

kubectl get clusterroles | grep -i rbac

Hope this helps
