+### Understand the alert
+
+This alert, `kubelet_node_config_error`, is related to the Kubernetes Kubelet component. If you receive this alert, it means that there is a configuration-related error in one of the nodes in your Kubernetes cluster.
+
+### What is Kubernetes Kubelet?
+
+Kubernetes Kubelet is an agent that runs on each node in a Kubernetes cluster. It ensures that containers are running in a pod and manages the lifecycle of those containers.
+
+### Troubleshoot the alert
+
+1. Identify the node with the configuration error
+
+ The alert should provide information about the node experiencing the issue. You can also use the `kubectl get nodes` command to list all nodes in your cluster and their statuses:
+
+ ```
+ kubectl get nodes
+ ```
+
+2. Check the Kubelet logs on the affected node
+
+ The logs for Kubelet can be found on each node of your cluster. Login to the affected node and check its logs using either `journalctl` or the log files in `/var/log/`.
+
+ ```
+ journalctl -u kubelet
+ ```
+ or
+ ```
+ sudo cat /var/log/kubelet.log
+ ```
+
+ Look for any error messages related to the configuration issue or other problems.
+
+3. Review and update the node configuration
+
+ Based on the error messages you found in the logs, review the Kubelet configuration on the affected node. You might need to update the `kubelet-config.yaml` file or other related files specific to your setup.
+
+ If any changes are made, don't forget to restart the Kubelet service on the affected node:
+
+ ```
+ sudo systemctl restart kubelet
+ ```
+
+4. Check the health of the cluster
+
+ After the configuration issue is resolved, make sure to check the health of your cluster using `kubectl`:
+
+ ```
+ kubectl get nodes
+ ```
+
+ Ensure that all nodes are in a `Ready` state and no errors are reported for the affected node.
