Import Kubernetes API certificates

As part of getting started with Kubernetes monitoring, you might want to check how importing Kubernetes API certificates works.

Kubernetes API certificates are automatically imported for certification validation checks. Kubernetes automatically creates a kube-root-ca.crt configmap in every namespace. This certificate is automatically mounted into every container to /var/run/secrets/kubernetes.io/serviceaccount/ca.crt and merged into the ActiveGate truststore file using an initContainer. To get this feature, be sure to update Dynatrace Operator if you're using an earlier version.
