public sealed class ReleaseChannel : IMessage<ReleaseChannel>, IEquatable<ReleaseChannel>, IDeepCloneable<ReleaseChannel>, IBufferMessage, IMessage
Reference documentation and code samples for the Google Kubernetes Engine v1 API class ReleaseChannel.
ReleaseChannel indicates which release channel a cluster is
subscribed to. Release channels are arranged in order of risk.
When a cluster is subscribed to a release channel, Google maintains
both the master version and the node version. Node auto-upgrade
defaults to true and cannot be disabled.
