Description Matthew Staebler 2022-01-19 20:48:06 UTC
This is split off from https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2035757 to cover issues post-install.

Due to limitations in the load balancer on alibaba cloud, a request made from a control plane host to api-int will fail if the backend server handling that request is the same host. If there is ever a time when there is only one kube-apiserver pod running, then the cluster will become unusable. The node running that kube-apiserver pod will not be able to send heartbeats to the api server. The token for the node will be revoked. The kube-apiserver pod will devolve into a state where it cannot handle requests. At that point, there is no functioning api server, and there is no resolution without manual intervention by the cluster administrator.
