I am using kubeadm to deploy single node kubernetes 1.11 cluster. I am unable to find servicemonitor resources.

➜  kube-prometheus git:(master) ✗ kubectl get servicemonitor
error: the server doesn't have a resource type "servicemonitor"

➜  kube-prometheus git:(master) ✗ kubectl create -f manifests/prometheus-serviceMonitor.yaml
error: unable to recognize "manifests/prometheus-serviceMonitor.yaml": no matches for kind "ServiceMonitor" in version "monitoring.coreos.com/v1"

How do I enable servicemonitor with kubeadm?

The ServiceMonitor resource not part of Kubernetes itself. It is a custom resource which is part of the Prometheus operator as described here.

Make sure that you have installed the Prometheus operator (including the custom resources) beforehand to enable creating a ServiceMonitor object.
