title: Errors relating to Kubernetes watches
body: <p>I am seeing a lot of errors in my logs relating to watches. Here's a snippet from my apiserver log on one machine:</p>
  
  <pre><code>W0517 07:54:02.106535       1 reflector.go:289] pkg/storage/cacher.go:161: watch of *api.Service ended with: client: etcd cluster is unavailable or misconfigured
  W0517 07:54:02.106553       1 reflector.go:289] pkg/storage/cacher.go:161: watch of *api.PersistentVolumeClaim ended with: client: etcd cluster is unavailable or misconfigured

  </code></pre>
  
  <p>As you can see, there are two types of errors:</p>
  
  <ul>
  <li><code>etcd cluster is unavailable or misconfigured</code><br>
  I am passing <code>--etcd-servers=http://k8s-master-etcd-elb.eu-west-1.i.tst.nonprod-ffs.io:2379</code> to the apiserver (this is definitely reachable). <a href="https://stackoverflow.com/questions/35673283/why-does-kubernetes-apiserver-present-a-bad-certificate-to-the-etcd-server">Another question</a> seems to suggest that this does not work, but <code>--etcd-cluster</code> is not a recognised option in the version I'm running (1.2.3)</li>
  <li><code>too old resource version</code><br>
  I've seen various mentions of this (eg. <a href="https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/issues/22024" rel="nofollow noreferrer">this issue</a>) but nothing conclusive as to what causes this. I understand the default cache window is 1000, but the delta between versions in the example above are less than 1000. Could it be the error above is the cause of this?</li>
  </ul>
