This namespace hosts the dns and virtual ip components and there is high likely hood these need to run before openshift-apiserver runs. will leave it for RHV team to decide.

Reducing severity and priority after discussing with the development team about this.

Stefan Aside from not getting root permissions, are there any more implications for run-level != 1 ?

If we can reduce the run-level for that namespace we should do it.

The static pods we need are coredns, mdns-publisher and keepalived. coredns publishes port 53. Is there a run-level 
that would allow me to do that? any documentation on those run-levels?

The components in this namespace like DNS and API load balancing are required by all other components in the cluster and as such must be run at run level 1.
