I am using DOCKER desktop to setup kubernetes. I have used below command to install kubernetes dashboard on mac
kubectl create -f https://raw.githubusercontent.com/kubernetes/dashboard/master/aio/test-resources/kubernetes-dashboard-local.yamlwhen i use kubectl get pod --namespace=kube-system

kubernetes-metrics-scraper-head-787ff8f87-rrq67 1/1 Running 0 138mi wanted to know what is that "ErrImageNeverPull" of that POD. it is not even allowing me to describe/delete by that name.
kubectl describe pod kubernetes-dashboard-local-599bb4877f-6nnkzError from server (NotFound): pods "kubernetes-dashboard-local-599bb4877f-6nnkz" not found
How to fix or get rid of that so that i can successfully proceed further.
That YAML file specifies:
image: kubernetes/kubernetes-dashboard-amd64:head
imagePullPolicy: NeverSo ErrImageNeverPull means that (a) that exact image name doesn't exist on the node where the pod is scheduled, and (b) imagePullPolicy: Never tells it to not try to fetch it.
Since the pod is not in the default namespace, you need to provide the kubectl --namespace kube-system option option to every command that tries to interact with it (not just get pod but also describe pod, delete deployment, etc.).
It looks like you've pulled a deployment spec from inside the dashboard's test tree which is intended to be used by a developer actively working on the dashboard code. The installation instructions have a different YAML file to use. (This link to the GitHub repo is probably more stable than the link to the version-specific YAML file that's there.)
