Hello,

I am installing virtual box on ubuntu and enter command:
minikube start
The result shows ** Exiting due to RSRC_INSUFFICIENT_SYS_MEMORY: System only has 0MiB available, less than the required 1800MiB for Kubernetes**

The command df -H shows I have 10G available.

Can anyone tell me how to fix this issue?

Thanks. Jiuhong

You have to full fill minimum requirements. If I am not wrong.

Got it! Thank you!

Hi all, Thanks for welcoming me. I am a newbie.

  • 2 CPUs or more - installed minikube, kubernates, kubectl for one node cluster
  • 2GB of free memory - RAM is 8G
  • 20GB of free disk space - my linux laptop has more than 400GB of free space
    I had both kubernetes and docker running and got the above RSRC insufficient sys mem error. I have upgrade my RAM from 4 to 8G today. I have also configured my kubernetes master. However, when I start minikube from cmd line, getting ready to configure my single node, that is when I started to get the above error. I know there is something I an doing wrong lol.
