No workload rebalance when node is not available

Rancher 2.x
1

We had an issue this week where one of the nodes became unreachable by rancher and the workload on this node as well. However, the workload was not transferred to another node to keep the workload alive.
Is there any additional configuration that should be done to take the node off the load if it not ready? Can Rancher do this or do we need to do something custom?

Thanks

Can you check https://rancher.com/docs/rancher/v2.x/en/faq/technical/#why-does-it-take-5-minutes-for-a-pod-to-be-rescheduled-when-a-node-has-failed ?

Hi,

Thanks for the great answer. Since i’m not sure how much time it was i’ll assume this is it.
I will update in case it is not but it seems like the same issue.

Thanks for the help.
