Rancher2.6 unexpected behaviors on pods creating and deleting continuously

1

I create a rancher k8s cluster of 284 nodes, 280 deployments and 100 pods per deployment. After the all 28000 pods up and went in stable state for hours. I found there were logs on rancher-server web page showed the cluster contiuously create and delete pods. But when I login worker nodes to check the containers state, I found they were fine.

So the pod number used is contiuously increasing, till now it’s 192085. But the pod capacity of this cluster is 30910.

Anybody knows something about this?

I listed pod containers on all worker nodes, and I got the expected total number 280 nodes * 100 pods each node = 28000 pods.

But when I looked on rancher-server web page, I saw the Used pods number was continuosly increasing.

Do you have screenshots of the increasing number of pods? Where exactly do you see that?
