Description Clayton Coleman 2020-04-30 20:27:13 UTC
1. Launch 4.5 cluster
2. Do nothing
3. See ClusterIPTablesStale and NodeIPTablesStale alerts fire

It appears that iptables no longer syncs when no changes happen, which means these alerts will fire when no changes happen OR when the proxy breaks.

The alerts need to be updated or changed (or proxy needs to refresh the timestamp anyway).

Blocks 4.5 GA because we can't ship a product that fires alerts at idle.

I think Casey had a related upstream PR merge to kube last week: https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/90175

Working on this. Almost done. Needed an upstream change.
