<p dir="auto"><strong>What you expected to happen</strong>:<br>
The command should have succeeded thereby downloading and installing the cluster database and “control plane” components</p>
<p dir="auto"><strong>How to reproduce it</strong> (as minimally and precisely as possible):<br>
Download and install docker on Ubuntu 16.04 by following <a href="https://docs.docker.com/engine/installation/linux/ubuntulinux/" rel="nofollow">https://docs.docker.com/engine/installation/linux/ubuntulinux/</a></p>
<p dir="auto">Follow <a href="http://kubernetes.io/docs/getting-started-guides/kubeadm/" rel="nofollow">http://kubernetes.io/docs/getting-started-guides/kubeadm/</a> to install kubernete</p>
<p dir="auto"><strong>Anything else do we need to know</strong>:</p>
<p dir="auto">Namespace entity, as other entities, contains ObjectMeta (metadata), which contains in turn also a namespace property, which is :<br>
a. duplication of information<br>
b. can be updated to a completely different value than the namespace it's in.</p>
<p dir="auto">so imho this is a bug and can cause inconsistency and confusion.</p>
