Hey, I'm trying to deploy windows exporter though helm chart but getting error "Error creating: admission webhook "windows.common-webhooks.networking.gke.io" denied the request: [spec.hostNetwork: Invalid value: true: Windows does not support this field. Note that defaults may be allowed for compatibility., spec.hostPID: Invalid value: true: Windows does not support this field. Note that defaults may be allowed for compatibility.]"

Hi radhika21,

A relevant thread on Google Cloud Community Forum, as per @garisingh, the GKE still does not support HostProcess pods on Windows nodes.
